@DISCODAN Exactly, thought I was in a DCS forum there for a minute.
But you can never make everyone happy, I for one have been loving the fresh breath of air that is BMS in general.

RE: Thrustmasters F16 TQS
Having owned a lot of Thrustmaster equipment over the years my biggest worry is going to be the quality of slew/axis control/potentiometers/buttons/switches.
Until Delta Sim came out with their replacement for the slew on the Warthog throttle, it was pretty bad.
The Cougar pots seemed like they always wanted to get jittery at the wrong time also.
The buttons on the Warthog were cheesy membrane switches with plastic cases, once replaced with quality buttons, it’s a heck of a lot better. Then again, that took $$$ on something that already wasn’t cheap.Hopefully can see some reviews soon and see what quality level they have put into this. For that price, hopefully everything is digital/hall and no cheesy pots/buttons/switches anymore.

RE: We are back…
@Bloodhound161 Looks like a really great event.
Well done video. -
RE: [Solved] Position of the start window
@tdr Press Right CTRL and Enter, this will give you a windowed 2d Screen,
Drag the screen where you want it to be from the title bar
Press Right CTRL and Enter again to go back to borderless, exit and open BMS again and the window should be in borderless where you moved it to. -
RE: Mapping the Warthog flaps switch to MASTER ARM?
@Elegantly It can be done by manually editing the keyfile you are using, below is an example using the AP switch.
So switch up triggers SimLeftAPUp
When it’s returned to center it triggers the SimLeftAPMid action, the key to that line is the 0x42 that tells BMS to take action when 53 is released.
Same thing applies for 54 on and off, hence the need for 4 lines.SimLeftAPUp 53 -2 -2 0 0x0 115
SimLeftAPMid 53 -2 -2 0x42 0x0 115
SimLeftAPDown 54 -2 -2 0 0x0 115
SimLeftAPMid 54 -2 -2 0x42 0x0 115 -
RE: Would you consent to send information to BMS server?
Personally have no problem with it, but feel it would need to be like “most” other software does it.
Optional checkbox to provide non-personally identifying information to be shared.
Or ask users to participate in an online hardware survey that links to the site.Otherwise you run the risk of people claiming BMS is stealing personal data etc…

RE: Hung stores
@Bowser Could be something to check, when I had that issue it turned out to be hardware related. Tested the Warthog Weapons Release Button and it was flaky. Replaced it and didn’t have any issues after that.

RE: Voice control
@hoover I use it with the wildcards set up and it works great imo. Just have some memorizing of keywords to do.
With the wildcards, I can transmit “Gunsan Tower, Goblin 1-1 Request Taxi for Departure”
It will key on Tower, Taxi, and Departure and execute that command.
For another example, “Gunsan Tower, Goblin 1-1 Request taxi Back to Ramp”
It will key on Tower, Taxi, and Back to execute that command. -
RE: Stream Deck Profile - For anyone who wants it
@Sharpe Nice timing and thanks for sharing! Just picked one up the other day and have set up the ICP and some miscellaneous button stuff. Works great so far.
Just started to mess around with single button multi action stuff so this is great and should help with the learning curve. -
Comms Menu Tree
Anyone know of a resource for the comms menu that shows the commands laid out in a tree format?
As in “T 2” is Remove Chocks, “T T 1” is Ready for Departure etc…In the Comms Nav manual there are screen shots but nothing in the tree format.
Thanks!

RE: FoxVox Free voice control software for BMS
@oldtommyboy Refer to the BMS-Comms-Nav-Book.pdf page 34 and you can see the changes that they made to the radio menus.
Had to go in and adjust the commands to get everything lined up again. The Weapons Free AA and Weapons Free AG shifted everything down by 1 after those. The Weapons Free command used to just be 1 command. -

RE: FoxVox Free voice control software for BMS
@oldtommyboy It is kind of weird/clunky, try clicking in the middle of the title box 3 times. It should turn blue and then can be edited.

RE: Does anyone use Elgato Stream Deck XL Advanced Stream Control . Thinking about getting one
@hoover I just tried it again and see how it’s changed now.
The button icons are in the folders, like 0,1 - 0,2 - etc…
Then the CustomImages under that and there will be a png file. That’s the button, and it looks like they all have the same name too. That’s painful, but still doable.Here’s a link to an ICP icon pack that is pretty good there’s several in that thread, so look and see which on you like.

RE: FoxVox Free voice control software for BMS
@oldtommyboy Actually have mine setup that way.
Used a ptt for UHF for ATC, Ground and Tower, just the way I set it up for some reason. That covers ground, tower, approach/departure.
Then have another VHF ptt for Wingman, Element, Flight, AWACS, and JTAC.Both of the PTT’s correlate to the Viper radio ptt’s in pit also. So if anyone was on the Tower freq, when I push to talk FoxVox listens and anyone on that freq would hear my voice speak. I also have the pilot voice set to off so that it’s not repeated by the computer voice.
