@Mav-jp '‘First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.’

I also have seen the trailing dot. It happens in the campaign too.

RE: Newbee on BMS, questioning myself if i failed or it is a intentional feature?
@MarcAurel Welcome back! This is not the Falcon 4 you remember. I’m not going to be the guy who says RTFM but you really do need to. If you start with the training missions it will be easier to find the information about the gun and other weapons and how to use them. In the doc’s folder there is a manual for the training missions. There is a training mission MISSION 19: GUN & HMCS/AIM-9X that has the information about using the gun. Start there if your looking to get the gun working. I went through the same thing when I started back with Falcon. I hadn’t flown since the early 2000’s and then I found BMS and did the same as you, jumped into instant action for some fun and couldn’t shoot anything. My advice is to get some quick knowledge on chucking spears and the gun so you can have some fun blowing stuff up. But really you should start with the training mission 1 and go through the list of missions to get familiar with the systems and how they work.

RE: NEW WINWING ICP
I use AIC to display the DED on my Logitech G13. I wonder if that might work on the Winwing ICP if not using their software to program the buttons. If it’s possible to program it without using their software.

RE: Count down timer issue
@kampfalk Thanks for the reply. I fly campaigns where I frag my own flights but I also like to fly campaigns where I just pick from ATO generated missions. I always start a new version of just using ATO generated missions so I haven’t tried fragging in the new version. And I am aware of the speed limitation I haven’t gone above 4x in a long time. Thanks for all of the help guys!
I have found that the problem doesn’t happen every flight and I can cancel the flight then reselect it as many times as I need to until time to enter 3d and the sim runs correctly.
And for some reason I have always alt-tab to WDP just before going to 3D. I remember reading a post about having to do that for WDP setting to take effect. I did not realize that was fixed. Thanks to Falcas for that indispensable tool! -

RE: Should I have to install Microprose Falcon 4 CD to install and run BMS ?
@Atlas LOL! No, I was talking about the SSD. $6.99 will not break the bank. If fact Falcon4 would be considered mandatory spending.

RE: Should I have to install Microprose Falcon 4 CD to install and run BMS ?
@Atlas Thanks, I already have the Art of the Kill video and PDF. I haven’t had to reinstall Falcon 4 so I haven’t made the jump to a digital copy yet. And honestly when I do upgrade my PC I will probably keep the SSD I run BMS on and use it for just BMS and other gaming, and get another SSD for everything else. If I do that I won’t need to reinstall but I haven’t made up my mind on that yet. I guess I will see what the budget is at that time and make the decision based on that.

RE: Should I have to install Microprose Falcon 4 CD to install and run BMS ?
@airtex2019 When I built my computer all those years ago I purposely added the CD player just so I could install Falcon 4 and never used the CD player again. On my next build I will go with a Steam or GOG copy of Falcon 4 and skip the CD player.

RE: No Nav points and lines on the HSD
Usually in a training mission or any mission for that matter if you don’t have steerpoints or PPT’s on your HSD you need to do the click dance before you get into the jet. Before you get in the jet open the DTC and do a save on the targets tab, go to the comms tab and click comms plan and save then go to IFF tab and click IFF plan (or whatever it is called) and save. then jump in the jet and it should be there. On a rare occasion this has happen to me and this usually solves it. Also if you move the bullseye you will need to save the DTC for that change to show up in the HSD.

RE: Should I have to install Microprose Falcon 4 CD to install and run BMS ?
@Atlas I did not think about the media degrading. It has been since 4.32 that I installed Falcon 4 from my disk. I’m sure I would think it was my system that was the issue and not the disk if I had trouble installing.

RE: Should I have to install Microprose Falcon 4 CD to install and run BMS ?
@Zeus can confirm. I have original disk and windows 10 and no problem installing.

RE: No comms with AWACS and tanker
@mjones You could try and open the DTC before you take off and click on the comms tab and click the comms plan button, and click save. Whenever I have run into this type of problem this usually fixes it. I have not tried it with training mission though.

RE: Key binds dropping.
@Bayonet I had the same problem with my new Winwing ICP. I was setting the rotory wheels using the BMS UI and had to set them every time I fired up the sim. Once I used the standard launcher my binding stayed.
