@Icarus Thank you. I use Photoshop and that is what I used to use. The LOD Editor was to find the files. But the 5717 doesn’t exist in the EMF or KTO. The Editor from the BMS Launcher says that number when I open the 3D model. But for all the Greek HAF F-16s the numbers are 6496,6499,6502,6505,6508,6512,6515,6518,6524,6527,6636,6639,6642,6645…
As for the Tail for the F-16 that shows up on the mission a create it’s 6722.dds.
One thing I noticed with the EMF, is that the Terrain is not very realistic. I remember it much better more than 15 years ago. I can’t find the Tiles I made for KOS that was from Google Earth Photos when I had the time.
Something else is that it doesn’t have any missions or campaigns. Are there any that I can download?

RE: CT# of aircraft for skinning
@Icarus Thank you for the fast reply. When EMF started I did some terrain editing. I began doing Dodecanese Islands. I used to use LOD Editor and Photoshop. I enjoyed it back then… Now things are a bit different. I checked the files you gave me and they are indeed Greek F-16s. But the one I fly is none of them. Does the EMF use also the Korean Files? Or does it use only the EMF? Is there guide that you can link me or send me with a manual how to implement the edited dds files? I tried already with my Photoshop and when I save, there are many options and settings. I noticed that when I put my mouse on the DDS file, it shows me 2048x2048. When I save it, it doesn’t show that anymore. And it does not show the thumbnail preview.

CT# of aircraft for skinning
Hello guys,
I have been trying to make some skins for HAF F-16C B52+. When I use the editor, it tells me the CT Index number, but it doesn’t exist. I am using EMF theater. It doesn’t even exist in the Korean theater. When I view the 3D model, it comes up as 5717. Any help would be appreciated. -

No F16 during AAR and other missions.
Hey guys,
I have been doing the tactical engagements to get back in shape before I do a campaign. But many of the missions are other than a F16. The F5 are OK because the cockpit inside is the F16 and I don’t have to figure out anything. I was trying to AAR (Air to Air Refueling) but the F18 is something completely new to me. Even though the channels were the showing the Tanker Channel highlighted, I don’t know if that was working. As I requested to Air Refuel, I wasn’t getting any kind of response. How can I get the F16 mission instead?
Thanks
I am using the 4.37 BMS -
RE: Back into Falcon4 - last time was 1.08....
Welcome back, I just started. I though Played some BMS before I quit the entire sim thing. I honestly had not many crashes back in the days as bought the original the day it came out too…Back then I believe it was OK as long as you had good graphics card. I actually was using two cards as one. Damn I think I still have my first Voodoo cards in the Attic. LOL. I haven’t tried the VR thing yet, but I might just because of this post. hehe.
Welcome back again!!! -
RE: Constant CTD
@airtex2019 Oh I wont go to Windows 11 until Windows 10 is not supported…maybe by then we will have better performance on the Windows 11 and then transition.

RE: Constant CTD
@Quasi_Stellar Thanks for that, trying to get things as accurate as possible. It was the training I am confirming. On next mission training so far they are all F-16

RE: Constant CTD
@airtex2019 Man I appreciate your help so far. I really like the start up and I have got that pretty quick so far. As for Landing, I had 497 hours of flight per my logbook before I quit. I already landed the plane 1 bumpy the first time, but after that, I land it pretty smooth with visual approach using the AOA only and HUD Bracket. I haven’t done the ILS yet. There are too many active buttons and switches in the cockpit that I need some time to familiarize the process. And many training manuals are not as easy as some people say. There were some references that were not as they say…I was trying to jettison the tank before I land, but that wasn’t working anyway, even with the emergency Jettison. Anyway, hope to fly with you one day when I am ready…The HOTAS is pretty stubborn and the Stick isn’t as I remember. Some people linked me to some good setups, but they didn’t work with mine. X52 Pro Logitech.
Thanks again -
RE: Constant CTD
@airtex2019 Indeed, its the training mission Tactical Engagement first one. It is 4 F5s. And that is what it actually says in the training mission. The original Falcon 4 mission worked fine. But these seem to be made by 3rd party. Not that they are bad but if I cannot change to F16 on training, even though inside the cockpit is an F-16 may be the problem. But it could be the config of the HOTAS. It never seems to remember my settings and have to load them every time. And from the Configuration tool on the Launcher, the POV switch does not respond in the game, even though the Setup recognizes the function as POV1, POV2, etc. After 3 reinstallations, I was able to fly the mission. Do you know where I can find the Maps of the Airports? When I landed, I requested a Taxi back, and I was given Echo Golf 01, but there are no Numbers and Symbols at the Hangars. I waited for my wingmen to park to see where they would go and that is how I found my space. If we are playing the game completely, then it should be that way. Perhaps some updates will apply symbols on the Hangars . The Taxi had the G but again no sign of E or 01. That is why I am asking for maps of airports so I can begin to utilize them properly.

RE: missing elements in Cockpit in 4.37 ?
@efsixteenblock50 Nice, I agree, I have already 4 crashes at the same location right after take off…it just hangs with the sound of the engine and I have to use task manager to exit. It will not close any other way.

RE: missing elements in Cockpit in 4.37 ?
@efsixteenblock50 Thanks for the info. But I am probably going back to 4.36…4.37 crashes too often. I haven’t flown a lot because of these crashes. Been spending a lot of time in the Start Up…

RE: missing elements in Cockpit in 4.37 ?
@sparrowGR How do you select what Airplane you will fly with? I went through the config app and was lost. I am figuring a lot as I go, but I hope to get there soon.

RE: missing elements in Cockpit in 4.37 ?
@ramahan Yeah, I confirm that too.

Constant CTD
Hey guys, I installed BMS 4.37. I had some issues at start but it got smooth. Now again I was having this Launcher Dragging my pc again. So I uninstalled and then reinstalled. Now I am having discoloration on my Cockpit when clicking. And the Switch for the Lights Button Disappears when I click on it. I got 2 in a Row Crash to Desktop. Anything I am doing wrong? Is there a log where I can post to see my errors if any?

RE: BMS 4.37 Mouse
@airtex2019 Hey,
Well I am in the Tactical now doing the training again from start because its been a long time. So though inside it looks like F-16, it is an F-5 on the outside. Is there a way to make this plane a F-16? If so , how to do I change it? At the loadout screen there is no option working to change. -
RE: Kunsan
@Quasi_Stellar said in Kunsan:
I have to look for my book. This is a completely different book. Mine was a solid thick book. I believe I have the original version. I bought Falcon 4 the minute it was released. Piloting fighter jets was something that was always intriguing to me. So 2 years later they made this in a Dossier or did you make it?

BMS 4.37 Mouse
Hello guys,
I installed the New BMS 4.37 recently. The first time it was dragging like a nightmare! I don’t know why really but it was weird. The second time after a few days, software was responsive as the 4.36 version. One thing is only kind of weird with the mouse… in the 4.36 version the mouse is pretty stable and jumps around the target click a little bit sometimes and especially around the canopy switch. In 4.37, the button to close the canopy does not function anymore. Even though it is Highlighted it doesn’t do anything. I discovered now it is a one click thing only a bit higher. You click and the Canopy shuts and locks automatically by itself. No need to click on the spider lock. But the mouse button jumps around this area 2-3 cm every time I click. Is this a bug or is it a mouse config thing?
