So friend told me we should get Free Falcon cos he wanted to fly F16, and in the process of looking at youtube videos we found BMS.
Now I have downloaded both of them (BSM 4 and Free Falcon 5.5.5, but i'm wondering which one is best? what are the differences, pro's and con's for the 2 cos its quite confusing.

Is it somehow possible to have both mods Installed? how are the 2 in regard to multiplayer, Co-op and PvP as well as online player base?
which of them would you reccommend to get. As of right now the cockpit graphics of BSM has me slightly stunned, but at the same time the prospect of flying Mirage and SR-71 in Free Falcon sounds awesome to say the least.

Try both, they have different registry lines, so you should not have problems.

New BMS is a very stable F4 platform.

Enjoy.

Install both in different folders.

Haven't dove too much into BSM yet, but one of the great things about FF5 is the number of flyable planes (each with their own cockpits (the F-18E is another great one)) and the campaigns.

BMS would be best if you're flying online.

I like the new BMS, no more fiddling around with my install. It works, and so far is very stable.

BMS brings Falcon up to date with new hardware. Inbuilt clickable 3d pit, eyefinity works, dynamic shadows, DX9 - and that's just all for the eye candy not forgetting what's under the hood. All this just from the initial install. No more fiddling about with the install. The only cfg editing I did was for my Eyefinity POV and side panel viewing.

yes, the graphics are quite miles apart between BMS & FF, and BMS is more stable on my pc...

Tried FF5 real quick. not impressed with the graphics unfortunatly, and i couldnt get BMS to run as SuperPAK 4.0 wouldn't install. And then I had to reinstall FF5 cos it wouldnt run with Falcon 4.0 installed (the original game that is)

Taking up the fight with BMS though

Be sure you have the latest BMS 4 !!!


SuperPAK goes back to the FF1/SuperPak/BMS 1 or so days. Very very very old

Not the correct one.

Keep in mind to install BMS,you do not need to have Falcon installed,just use your original F4 CD. It just uses it for verification. Having any other flavor of Falcon on the drive should not affect the BMS install then far as I can tell. I had AF,OF4.7,and installed BMS using that method, no issues
