    • RE: BMS 4.35 Screenshots

      My first A-G kills in 4.35 šŸ™‚ With a thousand thanks to the devs:

      Everything seems to be working just fine, even on my vastly obsolete machine. The cloud patterns are beautiful…

    • RE: Which of the previous BMS releases...

      I wholeheartedly thank you all for expressing your honest opinions and giving advice… Plenty of food for thoughts, really.
      The reason for the question contained in the original post would require a lengthy explanation on my part (again, no technical issues or FPS drop), so let me conclude by saying that I’ll certainly rethink it all.
      Best regards to All.

    • Additional config lines needed?

      Hi,

      In the intro information for the 4.36.1 one thing was not perfectly clear to me. I removed 4.36.0 and performed a fresh install of 4.36.0 + 4.36.1 (successful!). Do I need to add any script lines to my config file? Thanks.

    • Which of the previous BMS releases...

      Hi,
      First of all I must emphasize that this post isn’t meant to carry any disrespect or a lack of appreciation to the developers. On the contrary, I do appreciate and admire their programming skills, willingness to make the sim better and sheer enthusiasm.
      There are reasons, however, why I must discontinue flying in 4.37. My question is therefore which of the previous releases would you recommend as the most stable, possibly with fewest bugs and the most reliable database. It doesn’t have to be the most realistic or best looking ;). I am prepared to move as far back as the 4.33.
      Thank you in advance for any relevant input.

    • RE: 4.37 - no mouse cursor in cockpit

      @Snake122 - thanks a lot. That cfg line replacement worked like a charm.
      BTW, I’m not sure whether I should thank you first or rather apologize to the dev’s community for not having read related threads. I was so anxious to solve my problem and fly that I forgot about the obvious: search first, than ask…

    • RE: Which of the previous BMS releases...

      Thank you for your replies, Everyone.

      @Seifer My problem with the missing mouse cursor was solved almost at the instance I posted it.

      And, no, I don’t have any specific problems running 4.37, technical or other. Posting my (polite, I hope) request I was hoping for some recommendations regarding the PREVIOUS (pre-4.37) releases.

      Just one more question, this time a pretty straightforward one. Can any of the previous versions be installed along with 4.37 on the same machine?

    • 4.37 - no mouse cursor in cockpit

      As in the title… I use the regular launcher, and can change views with the mouse, while no mouse cursor is visible in the 3D cockpit.
      Probably some small omission on my part; anyway, I’d be grateful for any suggestions.

    • My today's "discoveries"...

      ā€œDiscoveriesā€ - because until today I haven’t tested this awesome theatre. Today I found out the latest version is 4.36-compatible, and-hey!-it certainly is!.
      I took a Warthog for a ride, and, man!.. another nice surprise: what a great plane to fly! I usually fly the F-16, so the trimming was somewhat new to me, and I wasn’t sure about how the landing would go, but even though it’s a completely different story, I managed to bring the bird safely back to Edwards AB. The flaps do their job rather nicely, something we needn’t worry about flying the F-16 šŸ˜‰

      Many thanks to the creators of the Nevada theatre and the A-10 FM.

    • RE: 4.36.3 update not installing

      For your information, I place all BMS-related installers/patches + the sim itself on E: even though my system resides on C:, no issues.

    • RE: F-15c air to air mode

      You can simply enter either of the two A-A combat modes by pressing ā€œMā€ (missile mode) or ā€œDā€ (dogfight mode). Cancellation (default key ā€œCā€) will put you back in the nav mode. At least that’s how I do it. Those keyboard command assignments are the default ones in the Full keyboard file.
