<p>Listen, just release 4.36 right away OR ELSE!! <br /><br />Or else i’ll wait… <img src=“/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f60a.png?v=gcfd8gb1ch8” alt=“” class=“not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji–blush” /> </p>

First Falcon Lounge MP flight, successful Strike 1 ship…

I wish I knew how much a free sim would cost… - BTW, those paper templates on the MFDs are for my WWII sims… in case you were wondering.

Just a thought, to discuss (hacked) VR in BMS now and when it finally arrives in a future version?

Nah… I am quite content waiting to see what the devs come up with in a year or so.

<blockquote>he stop follow me and never takoff after i call ATC “ground abort”. so i have to carry out mission alone? <br />this is a continued problem following this topic <a href=“https://forum.falcon-bms.com/topic/22076/taxi-late-interrupt-takoff-sequence/39” target=“_blank”>https://forum.falcon-bms.com/topic/22076/taxi-late-interrupt-takoff-sequence/39</a></blockquote><p><br />Why are you aborting the mission and expecting anything to work afterwards? Starting to seem like you are just doing crazy stuff so you can start yet another thread about a “problem” that doesn’t exist… or maybe it’s just me.</p>

<blockquote>Just installed 4.35, U1, and U2. How do you set the display to be in the center of your monitor. I don’t see display extraction on the main menu that launches falcon.</blockquote><p><br />At a loss as to why you would not install U3 also? You seem to be confused as to what “Display Extraction” actually is. You can “extract” certain gauges and the MFDs to be “displayed” on the main or secondary monitors. It has absolutely nothing to do with the 2D or 3D Falcon 4.35 screens… Below is an example of “Display Extraction” using Helios, though the MFD’s can easily be extracted using the included RTTClient app…<br /><br /><img class=“ql-image” src=“https://i.imgur.com/gEOYlKM.jpg” /><br /><br /> <br /></p>

@MaxWaldorf said in Training features request:

Gents,

This is absolutely out of question from my perspective to push such a thing in BMS.

There is nothing realistic about your request… (re-arm and refuel takes time in real life and it is definitely not like DCS does…)

For the time being, use cheats as proposed but I don’t see value for BMS to undertake such a work to reduce realism…

100% agree. OP needs to learn to use the game properly not with arcade cheat keys. Dumb idea.

OP try training in correct order. Start with basics, take off, flying, landing then move onto weapons and combat tactics.
Learn to fly proper combat missions, not exactly sure what you are doing but it sounds dumb and totally unrealistic.

I think maybe you need to tone it down a notch and re-read his 1st (and subsequent) posts more carefully. He is looking for “features” that will fit into his training program and certainly are not “dumb” requests. Many (myself included) have asked about a “hot rearm” availability for years, back before BMS actually. He has graciously accepted that these are not likely items that will ever be addressed, but never say never about the BMS team!

@lorikeolmin said in Bugs on Runways not fixed! Cars parked in the middle of Runway. WTF? RAS SAFANIYA is one of the airbases with this problems. How we can takeoff or landing with this stuff on the way. Maybe it's easy for you to fix it. Come on!:

@kiwi I fear you’re losing your time, check his few other posts… Could be the day to realize, but…

It appears someone uncovered the same rock for a total of 2 posts 6 years ago, so maybe we won’t see him back after these two until 2027!

@airtex2019 said in "Tips & tricks" / Tactics to be used with AI:

Anyone prefer 3-ship over 4-ship, for SP flights, just to be able to control all the AI?

Don’t think you will gain much as they seem to both respond to the Element’s commands (both at once of course) fairly well but I understand the logic. The “good” thing is if one gets knocked down you still have command of the element regardless of which is missing (at least I think so?)…

@nuNce said in How to remove J-20 from the campaign:

Hello, I’ve recently noticed that the J-20 has appeared in my KTO Rolling Tiger campaign. I tried removing it with Mission Commander by changing my savegame, but without any luck unfortunately.
f6a254a-6e2a-4ae3-bbae-540132bc3e17-immagine.png](https://i.imgur.com/j6erWMq.png)
Is there a way to remove the J-20 without restarting the whole operation?
Personally it’s not a welcome addition as it disrupts the normal flow of campaigns in a frustrating manner. Thank you.

Where did you find a KTO Rolling Tiger campaign? I only have Tiger Spirit and Rolling Fire…?

@RBravo said in Saitek or thrust master?:

Definitely WARTHOG THRUSTMASTER HOTAS. It has steel moving parts as compared to X 56, which with use wear out and if broken, plastic cannot be repaired. So, my vote is for WARTHOG THRUSTMASTER

Three minor things -

1. He apparently already made the purchase, though I have no idea what he bought
2. He asked to choose between the “Thrust master T16000M or Saitek X52”
3. You are quite mistaken, the Warthog HOTAS internals are plastic. I replaced the JStick base with an “all-metal VirPil " VPC WarBrd” the day I got it…

@PopTops said in BMS CTD on Multiplayer connection:

Hi, just so say the problem has been solved. Solution:

• Delete 4.35 files that were still alongside (so @Seifer , you might have been correct pointing to a version conflict of the cfg file)
• Update to 4.36.1

Thanks all!

Curious, how can any files from 4.35 be “alongside”? 4.35 and 4.36 are totally independent installations and can coexist quite well…

@Carbinjay said in How to fix Could not create device on adapter:

@Icer did not work

@Carbinjay - I have found the issue on my system and the “fix”, but still do not know exactly what the cause is or how to rectify it. Do you by chance have a VR headset? If I start my system with the headset powered off, I can start BMS 100x with 0 issues. The moment I start the headset for a VR game, finish and put the headset away and then try to start BMS, even if i’m sure to power the VR set off before launching, I get the “could nor create device” error. The only way to get BMS to start is a reboot making sure the VR headset is off or unplugged. I can not find any special services that start, odd drivers, etc. and contacting HP support was a waste of time. For now, I just follow the process…

@drtbkj said in Old Simmer Looking For Advice:

Unlike Icer, I avoid TARGET. That program gives me a headache . Seriously , though, one thing about the AL is that Shifted functions are easy to set up. But, you may be a TARGET-wiz, so whatever works for you. If you’re like me, then your HOTAS setup will evolve over time.

Let’s get something straight my friend, I am NOT a TARGET wiz! My “WarthogThrottleALLSwitchPos.tmc” profile was written by someone else and all I did was modify a line or two, is quite simple and (so far) 100% reliable. All it does is assign a DX# to every hat\switch\button on the Throttle (does not effect any other device) to make it easier to assign them in Alt Launcher (or in the Sim setup). As I said earlier, using the Alt Launcher Press\Release function will work also, but to me this is much more straightforward and it works for all the other sims I use…

@actrade said in Old Simmer Looking For Advice:

Let me start with my background. I’m 57, played Falcon on an Amiga originally, bought Falcon 4.0 hard cover original game and played it for a long, long time, took a long break and picked up again when AF was issued and then BMS. Started getting into some MP (even though my internet connection at that time sucked) and had a blast and got away from the game for the past 5 years or so. I have a TM Warthog joystick/throttle and Saitek rudder pedals and two, 32" monitors. I also would like a good TM profile link.

With that all out of the way, here is my quandry. I’m a bit overwhelmed in where/how to start back playing? There are literally thousands of threads here and I guess I’m looking for some advice on how to get started again? I tried to do a ramp start the other day and just got frustrated. Could someone recommend a good, step by step approach to get started again? There are LOTS of youtube tutorials, some old, some new, but do you have a recommendation on which might help me get started? Thanks in advance.

@actrade - I feel your pain. I’m a bit older, started a bit earlier, but have been on/off/on/off F4 since the beginning. For your TM HOTAS (I have the same but with MFG pedals, added ICP and MFDs). I would suggest using the latest Alternative Launcher to set up the joystick the way it is in the jet (TMS/CMS/DMS, trim, paddle etc.). For the throttle I use TARGET to assign a DX# to every switch position (DX128 profile) but you can do similar with Alt Launcher using it’s Press/Release functions. I don’t use the standard TM throttle plate assignments, but print out a sheet to cover it and label it myself (pic below).

The Ramp Start is a bit tedious, but you can edit it down to what I call a “Scramble” Ramp Start list without all the tests and unnecessary checks. I normally do SP Campaign Taxi starts and avoid it, but for online you will need that on “most” good servers. Your best bet, once set up, is to go through ALL the Training TEs one at a time, but this doesn’t mean you can’t learn how to lock\shoot and pop into Instant action and even do CAP and Escort missions in a Campaign while you learn! T\O, Landing, Navigation are key, then learn weapons and have fun! Just the $.02 from an old F4 guy.

@MaxWaldorf said in Nose wheel failure:

Guys, we believe we fixed it for next patch…

Further reports might not help anymore at this stage…

Is there a procedure not to do, or to do to get around this?

@MaxWaldorf said in Just updated - now I get the dreaded "Could Not Create Device on Adapter" error..:

Your VR headset might create a virtual audio device to mirror the desktop audio (I know virtual desktop does that with my quest2)

I wonder if that audio device isn’t destroyed properly after you used it.

Might be something to investigate…

Sounds logical, but if it doesn’t show up in Sound Devices not sure where to look… i’ll ask on the HP G2 Discord, may get a clue there. I have removed my HP G2 speakers so I may use my Sennheiser headset with mic while playing (or earbuds), but it still may be running drivers for them… I have tested this out several times and I am 99% sure starting the HP G2v2 initiates Windows Mixed Reality Portal and must initialize it’s drivers as BMS crashes every time after I do this…

@airtex2019 said in Just updated - now I get the dreaded "Could Not Create Device on Adapter" error..:

@Icer when this error occurs – confirm, you’re still getting audio from the SBX-G6 device? (youtube etc all work ok?)

Start / Run / “DevMgmt.msc” … no yellow flags, errors or warnings on the device?

Next time it happens, maybe try disable/reenable from devmgmt UI, in lieu of rebooting. Just to potentially narrow down if that driver is a cause.

Hiya @airtex2019 - Error is back today, starting to think it may be something to do with using my VR Headset between staartups but I digress…

To your points-

Yes, sound works fine in YT before and after I get the error.
No yellow flags or errors in Device Manager (for anything)
“Disable Device” then “Enable Device” for Sound BlasterX G6, same error.

I also have listed (Under Sound, Video, Game Controllers) the "Nvidia High Definition Audio, Realtek USB2.0 Audio, and Sound BlasterX G6. I disabled all but the G6, same error. I then disabled the G6 and tried it, BMS splash screen appears and then CTD’s with no error. Then uninstalled the Realtek, enabled the G6, same error is back… will reboot with VR headset turned off, see what I get.

Rebooted, starts right up…

Ok, may be on to something. Ran a VR (Steam) sim and exited, went back to start BMS and got the adapter error again! Maybe it’s detecting and trying to Start the VR (HP G2v2) adapter?

EDIT: Rebooted, VR off, BMS starts right up.

@Icer it worked and now it doesn’t anymore? That’s curious, did you change something in between?

And please share the full dump and post post the text file logs files here, I might have a look on my phone

Ok, bit the bullet and ran the Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU v18.0.5.2) completely cleaning out all NVidia drivers\registry\etc., then ran NVCleanstall 1.13.0 to install the drivers\PhysX\NVidia HDMI sound. Now my sound display is: .

Have no idea what it fixed, but now 4.36.1 starts up again, I’ll let you know if its temporary or not…

Like my favorite boomerang, error is back. All I did was update Win11, going to reboot to see if it clears but WTH… Wondering now if it has anything to do with my HP G2v2 VR headset being plugged in (but turned off)… And lo and behold a reboot allows me to start BMS… sure would be great to KNOW why this is happening…
