I’m sure it’s been answered somewhere here at some point but I couldn’t find it; Does anyone know how to use the cursor on the throttle instead of the trim china hat to control the radar and cursor on the MFDs?

Update:
Got an Oculus Rift kit, runs perfectly on this machine. Haven’t tried any sims with oculus, maybe I’ll try DCS if I get some time.

Which one exactly?
Under Tactical Engagement, TR433 01 Ground Ops, when you load it, it goes to a screen that counts down. You can select ram, taxi, or runway and it counts down slowly until the appropriate time is met.

RE: If You Could Build A New Computer Just for Falcon BMS Right Now…
When you do the ground ops training mission, is it supposed to slowly count down to a T- time like that or is there a way to skip ahead?

RE: If You Could Build A New Computer Just for Falcon BMS Right Now…
Alright that’s what it was. Everything’s working great!

It just stays on this screen:
Update:Hold on I think something went wrong during the install of all the motherboard drivers including the USB stuff.

RE: If You Could Build A New Computer Just for Falcon BMS Right Now…
Update: BMS 4.33 works great! Not reading the HOTAS Controls though. I tried downloading the Windows Vista 64 Bit Drivers (which is what they recommend for Windows 7), from the website but the when I go to install them, and it asks me to plug in the controls nothing happens. Weird cuz I was just using them on my Lap Top running windows 10 to play FSX so it’s not the controls. I checked all the USB ports too… Any ideas on why the divers wouldn’t install/detect the controls? Also, would there be any point in installing Allied Force?

RE: If You Could Build A New Computer Just for Falcon BMS Right Now…
disregard, I just needed to install all the graphics card utilities and update drivers.

RE: If You Could Build A New Computer Just for Falcon BMS Right Now…
Yep, just installed BMS 4.33 and I’m getting “Falcon BMS has stopped working”.

It’s aliiiiive! Just downloaded falcon 4.0 but it’s not working. Haven’t tried bms yet.

Man I’ve had bad luck with Steam before. This would work?: https://www.gog.com/game/falcon_collection

Oh that’s a BBI 1:18th scale F-16. More of a really nice toy than a model. I don’t have the patience to put together and paint a real one.

Still waiting on the monitor, should get that tomorrow. Should have it built and tested this weekend. The case and cpu cooler were way bigger than I thought!
Anyone have a recommended video or guide on how to go from just the Falcon 4.0 Allied Force disc all the way to BMS 4.33 nice and quickly? I’ve seen a couple out there. -

Dammit I just realized I accidentally bought a protection plan on the Samsung SSD. That’s $25 I’ll never get back…

RE: If You Could Build A New Computer Just for Falcon BMS Right Now…
Do you think putting the power supply on the outside would do anything if all I was doing was running that setup on the stock clock speed?

Link works.
+1 to the SSD, RAM, GPU and monitor changes.
Why two optical drives?
Oh I forgot to delete that Pioneer. If you look on the actual order invoices you’ll see I just went with the basic optical drive. Try the link again: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/xcraftllc/saved/MrbqsY
I was going to tell u the same about the keyb and mouse.
The wireless card also i would ditch it.
Nice u changed the vga from zotac.
Also the Blue ray recorder i would ditch.
So ditching those either save the money or kill’em on a more amps per line PSU.In general about radiators cases ambient room temp etc… my psu is outside my case, my radiators and water pump r outside my case.
Its there to stay and for a purpose. Except the hdds affecting temp in the area of GPU cpu chipset the rest are on full ambient room temp xposure.
Happy camper like that for 5+years now… it could be much more…
My water block is from 775 era. On stock intel air on 4.5Ghz temps where crazy going up to 80.
Now on a crazy hot day it goes at 55.
Maybe on a new good air solution things would be better, but since it works its fine. And i totally dislike those monster huge (i’ll break your mobo) coolers.
I had a semifat once and had to remove it first whenever i wanted to do or change things in there. So nope stock cooler and lower speed for me than those monsters.
At the bottom line doing a quick search u can built a way more effective wc solution by pumps from fish tanks and all bought separetly. The money u save u can buy a suberb water block for the cpu or an extension for the vga.
And i laugh hard with the solutions with radiators in the case on the top area. As and with psu’s on the bottom area.sent from my mi5 using Tapatalk
Do you think that will be necessary on my setup? I’m not planning on OCing or anything for now.

So for everyone’s convenience, this is what I went with only I didn’t pay quite as much for the Windows 7 software and I bought some bargain bin keyboard, mouse, and speakers from Amazon.
Let me know if this link works for public usage:

RE: If You Could Build A New Computer Just for Falcon BMS Right Now…
I went with Windows 7 since the TM Cougar HOTAS is supported better on it. The goal is to build it, install the software, and run it from first time on with no issues. I ended up going cheap on the mouse, speakers, and keyboard and got a better monitor. That way I can at least enjoy it until I figure out what I want to do with triple screen or VR. Total was $2126.80 tax and shipping (3 business days or less). I still have $40 of rebates to send in.

RE: If You Could Build A New Computer Just for Falcon BMS Right Now…
Alright guys, thanks for all the help!
I have a premium account with newegg and a prime account with Amazon so I modified the list slightly to be able to purchase from just those two sources. I did indeed go with a i5-6600k and Windows 7.
I’ll post the details shortly. It all came out to about $2100.
