Windows Surface Devices
i searched through the forums and other than some small threads from a few years back i haven’t seen much.
Has anyone come across a way to use a Surface Pro (3 or 4) or SurfaceBook running Windows 10 to serve as a touch screen for MFDs and/or ICP?I know about MFDE to another monitor, but for that i would need a way for the Surface device to just function as an additional monitor from my main PC rather than a standalone device.
Any thoughts?

RE: Install BMS 4.33.1 while keeping 4.33
there are a number of differences, not many but they are there.
Im sure it will ‘work’ but there there are differences in the configs, so while you are able to and it doesnt crash, you dont want to just copy it over.i used NPP to do a file compare, doing this will let you see what settings in your old file you changed, once you are sure the new setting is the same, it makes it easy to apply the change, but dont just copy it. There are a number of plugins for NPP to do the comparison, its a pretty useful tool, here is one you can look at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/npp-compare/

RE: 4K Resolution possible?
Sorry never did sort out the window issue, but i have also downscaled from 4K my R9 280X was having a hard time keeping up frames @ 4K with DCS so i dropped it… so i never really worked on it much in BMS

RE: How to get access to bms4.33
i figured as much but i wanted to ask to make sure…
i am still seeding it, and there seems to be over 130 other seeders as i look at it now, so if someone gets the torrent file from an alternate source that should be a viable unofficial source until the BMS team works out the details officially. Hopefully this post in itself isn’t breaking the rules, if it is, please by all means moderate it/remove it. -
RE: How to get access to bms4.33
am i allowed to post or share (privately) a torrent file to get it or would that violate the “stuff”

RE: TM Warthog HOTAS $267 or $314
Got confirmation from another forum that the ordering was a success by a few people.
Also found that you get an extra 1.5% off if you use a debit card, bringing your possible cost down to only about $260 -

RE: 4K Resolution possible?
It was the dogs fault……
yea must have been…
now i have to figure out why my comms menu (Tower, AWACS, etc) are in the middle of my screen not on the side and why the bottom options are cut off, like the text is too big for the box and the bottom options dont fit… strange -
RE: 4K Resolution possible?
nevermind, i figured it out, i switched back to full screen mode, then when i went back to windows mode it started working properly… no idea why, but it did

RE: 4K Resolution possible?
sorry to hijack the thread but it seems related, i just picked up a 4K monitor on sale, Samsung 28"
Its currently connected using HDMI (waiting for DP Cable to ship).
Graphics card is AMD R9 280XThe display is running everything at the native 3840x2160 (30Hz due to HDMI)
Initially i couldnt select any resolution in BMS over 1920x1080, but the refresh rate config change (set g_bAllowAllRefreshRates 1) fixed that.Now what im running into is that im running in windows mode, when i select 3840x2160 in the graphics options is is way to large and spreads way out across my primary and secondary display.
I stepped through each size until it filled the screen and for some reason, 2560x1440 gives me a full size window, but i confirmed windows still shows teh display set to 3840x2160Any idea why the 2560x1440 option is filling out my 3840x2160 display?

RE: [WIP] Practical comparison for the F-16 block/variants in 4.33
4. F-16I and I-CFT carry the GBU-39 SDB.
So a comment like this came up before, w/r/t the F-16AM BAF, stating it could carry certain A2A missles.
i found the same thing then as i find now with your above comment regarding the GBU-39.when i load the the variant(s) into the default korea map, and i add each to the map as a flight, then go to edit the loadout, either shows the GBU-39 as an available option in my test TE.
Is this an issue with the TE i have? is it specific to Theater? -
RE: [WIP] Practical comparison for the F-16 block/variants in 4.33
Nice work DracoLlasa.
More corrections:
1. IAF C-30, D-30 have JHCMS.
2. EAF C-40, C-52 do not have JHCMS.
3. All IAF F-16s except A/B have internal jammer.
4. F-16I and I-CFT carry the GBU-39 SDB.awesome thanks!
updates have all been applied -

RE: AAR wind drag or wind shear?
thanks, i thought something similar, that there was some sort of engine wash at least partially modeled (maybe not perfect).
i found it very common that if you slide into the tanker slot straight in, you will get tossed around, and that seems to be reduced if you come in low and then clime into the slot from a slightly lower alt. At the end of the day, its a hard thing to do, so what ever you find that works for you… run with it
