The BMS Other Fighters Mafia is proud to present OFM 1.7.1 It is our collection of theaters. These Theaters reflect BMS 4.37 through Update 2

OFM 1.7 CHANGELOG 1) Corrected skin on F-16-30 IAF( thanks to Sammy Skycraft)
2) Adjustment to Clouds Modeling- In testing we were seeing a persistant layer of clouds at 5-6K, which in Nevada is frequently ground level.The fmap was adjusted.
3) Hornet, Fifth Generation, and Tornado cockpits-The 5 ECM Mode switches are now left click for on/ right for off
4) F-35B Flight Model refinement
5) F-35 B and C fuel capacities corrected to RL values
6a)AIM-120D “On/Off” Executables( thanks to Eddie): We had received from feedback,mainly multiplayers, requesting that the AIM-120D not be included.If you go to x/BMS 4.37/Data/Add-On OFM Nevada 1.7/Docs you will find “1Add AIM120D” and “2RemoveAIM120D”. The base install has the 120D,but simply run the “Remove” if you want to remove the it. You can reinstall it by running “Add” but please note it will overwrite any other loadout changes you might have made.
6b) Refinement of the AIM-120D. PLEASE NOTE: The 120D Project is ongoing, but in the meantime 1.7.1 will be released with what we call the 30 second burntime model. We feel it is the best compromise at present.However, if you look at x/BMS 4.37/data/Add-On OFMNevada/sim/misdata you will see all the current candidate models are included. You simply have to rename what you want to test (after backing up the original). We want to open the process to the BMS membership.
7) Rocket salvo change-(thanks to Bibleclinger). Rockets are now fired singly. Note:WIP to add more selectivity.
NAS-Fallon coordinants correction- now shows properly when, for example, set as alternate airbase.
9) Refined Baydoor modeling in the F-102A and F-106
10)Adjusted map for improved steerpoint line visibility
11) Repairs to many airbases
12) Jet changes-added-2 seater EFK200
-Spanish 2 seater F5B
-Spanish Av-8 loadout changes
-Various Flanker refinements…
Su-27S Flanker-B. Single seat, IRST in middle, no AAR probe, no AA-12
Su-27UB Flanker-C. Two seats, IRST in middle, no AAR probe, no AA-12
Su-33 Flanker-D. Single seat, canards, IRST in right side, AAR probe, yes AA-12
Su-30M2 Flanker-G. Two seats, IRST in right side, AAR probe, yes AA-12
Su-30SM Flanker-H. Two seats, canards, IRST in right side, AAR probe, yes AA-12
Su-27SM/SM3 Flanker-J. Single seat, canards, IRST in right side, AAR probe, yes AA-12
NOTE ON 4.37 JAMMER MODELING. We wanted to give the option of either using the USAF or IDIAS jammer system, so the Hornet and 5G cockpit hotspots are in place.
In the Hornet 'pit on low/center MFD-OSB1=ECM-STBY
-OSB2=ECM-OPER
-OSB3-5= ECM XMIT1-3
-OSB 11-15- ECM MODE 5-1(left click on, right off)
In the Fifth Gen. ‘pit, again on the low/center MFD
OSB 1-5=ECM MODE 1-5(left click on, right off)
OSB 16-18-ECM XMIT 1-3
OSB 19= ECM STBY
OSB 20= ECM OPER.
The Tornado also has ECM Power,EMM XMIT MODE,and the 5 XMIT button hotspots.See BMSOFM Fighters’ Manual page 5.
We’ve been working on the pits with a couple of goals. First, simply get it to work even for people with austere HOTAS’s. Second, to give people the option of the USAF or IDIAS without a lot of hassle.
The pits , that will be in OFM 1.6 Theaters,have hotspots for all the buttons needed for both systems. Plus, If your HOTAS has a 4-way switch, you have another option…
The procedure is 1) Go to x/4.37/Data/your theater/Sim/acdata/ your jets folder. In the avionics section look for avionicsRWRType
avionicsRWRType 1 ( this is for the Viper model)
avionicsRWRType 3 will give you IDIAS
avionicsRWRType 5 will give you the USAF model with the RWR-on-HUD display
2a) USAF-map CMS up,down, left,and right as usual . Then, map SimXMit1 ,SimXMit2 ,and SimXMit3 as shifted commands under the CMS’s. This gives you full HOTAS capability once you have powered the jammer and pressed the SimEcmMode1-5( which are in all 3 cockpits)
2b) IDIAS-It’s the same procedure as above except you map ECM XMIT TOGGLE instead of CMS Down. You don’t need the 3 XMIT commands.
There are other ways to do this, but this method has been tested in 3D
” class=“not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji–fearful” /> <br />This will also help the other Hornet variants like the EF-18M and the CF-188. I also have a little side project going where I’m experimenting with how the new Hornet stuff relates, or basically how <em>can </em>it relate, to the F-18 E/F and the Growler<br /> <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></p>
