    • RE: Any way to alt tab in 3d order to play music on youtube while flying?

      Sorry that is has been awhile. Thank you for your suggestions. My desk top is native at 4k. Before, when everything worked, I was running the desktop native at 1920 X 1080p. because I did not have the right hdmi cable, and I was not hooked up to the correct hdmi slot on the tv.

      What is weird, is that the game in no longer in full screen in 2d. I have tried everything I can think of, with some help from Ghastly. I tried each scaling option for the Nvidia Geforce 2080 ti card. I tried going back to 1920 X 1080 (though this is no longer the native resolution.) I tried changing the text size from 200% back to 100 %. I tried disabling full screen optimization. Same result every time, in 2d the game appears in the middle of the screen, but only takes up a part of the screen on my 55 inch tv.

      Any other suggestions guys? I’m stumped.

      I am going to try the alt enter suggestion, but I would hate to be in a multiplayer game, forget to hit alt enter, and hit alt tab and freeze up the game forcing a restart of my computer. There is already so much to remember to do in a multiplayer session, I know that I will forget to hit alt enter from time to time!

      Update, for some reason the game is now in full screen in 2d, so that is good, but it still stops working when I alt tab. If I hit alt enter, the game moves to the lower left corner and gets very tiny, and I then need to alt tab to get to task manager and close the program.

    • Any way to alt tab in 3d order to play music on youtube while flying?

      Any way to alt tab while in 3d in order to play music on youtube while flying? I use to be able to do that with 4.34, but now it will not work. I play 4k full screen on win 10 on a 50 inch Sony tv. Geforce 2080 ti card. Borderless window acts really weird, and just put the screen in the top right corner. I also tried using the windows button, but that also caused the game to freeze. Any ideas?

    • RE: Lulu…4.35\. Red Dog.

      I never used those things, but I may try it so I can read the updated manual on my tablet.

    • RE: Boresight issues training mission

      I could bore sight if we could do it on the ground. In the air, there are just too many things going on that my poor little brain can’t handle it all. 😮

    • RE: Lulu…4.35\. Red Dog.

      repvez, one nice thing they did was add a bar to all content that is new in 4.35. It really helps.

      Since I bought the 4.34 manuals back in the spring of 2019, I think I will wait until 4.36 before I get the next set from Lulu. What I would like to do for now is read them on my samsung tablet, but how to I get them on there? It does not have a slot for a usb, and there is no way to email that much data to myself. And I dont think I can install Falcon 4.35 onto my tablet just so that I have the manuals available, because the original Falcon is not on my tablet.

      So how do I get the 4.35 manuals that are on my computer to my tablet?

    • RE: Link 16 things you want in the next update

      After coming home after spending time with my mom, dad, sister, and 1 year old niece, I decided to check out the forums before going to bed, and I just skimmed through this last page. To the developers, you guys are amazing. What you have created here is a dream for me. This may sound silly, but ever since watching the movie Iron Eagle, I always wanted to fly the F-16. I bought Falcon back in 1999 when I was working at Kmart to help get me through college, but my computer couldn’t really run it. Then I bought Allied force in 2005. Still, it was hard for me to learn.

      Fast forward to Feb 9, 2016. I broke my ankle, and a few weeks later I decided to give Falcon BMS a try. 4.33 had just come out, but then there was an issue with whoever owned the license and even 4.32 was not available. So I made a post of what was going on with me, and my hopes to fly, and a great guy from the development team did something very nice for me! I will never forgot it.

      Every summer I would learn to fly a bit more, but I focused on single player, and then this most recent summer, after a great guy named Stalker reached out to me, I joined his group and started to really learn to fly in multiplayer. It was some of the most fun I ever had.

      Then right before Christmas ,you guys add 4.35. Heck, now we even have to make sure to turn on the anti-ice, and you created even more ways for enemies to kill us, with more lethal SAM operations and now the ships can blow up our missiles and still kill us while doing back flips! LOL. (Correction, the ships doing back flips will be added in 4.36, it was a last minute scratch from 4.35. My apologies for the error.)

      The point is, that the detail, the dedication, the effort, and the heart that you guys put into this is amazing, and most people truly love it and appreciate it. I personally want to thank you for everything you have done for us!

      Let me end with a quote from another person who dedicated themselves to helping others. She even had others spit at her for her efforts. Here it is:

      People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.

      If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.

      If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.

      If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.

      What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.

      If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

      The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.

      Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.

      In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

      -this version is credited to Mother Teresa

      God Bless and Merry Christmas.

    • RE: FPS impact of 4.35

      Ghastly, what cpu do you currently have? If I recall correctly, don’t you have a 2080 super gpu? I thought that you would be fine.

    • RE: Afterburner sound as an indication

      I use the warthog throttle smooth detent mod, and it works great. IIRC it was pretty cheap too. I think it is a must have for Warthog owners.
