Otherwise if you don't want to use torrent software you can download the zipped installer from here:

Unless you're stuck on Comcast and your whole connection goes to crap whenever a torrent application is running.

(Whatever they do, it seems to negatively affect LAN traffic as well, as if the router can't handle it very well...)

Good thing that direct download link worked!

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.



There's no reason why you shouldn't try both. The choice of aircraft in FF is just great (loooove the SR-71). Unfortunately as Falcon is and always has been an F16 sim, the level of detail in the other aircraft in FF is not exactly in the hardcore camp . I keep it around to take the different types out for a spin (the Eurofighter is really cool too!)

With BMS, not only is there the modern hardware and OS support, but also the most detailed F16 sim ever made. From what I gather, it's the closest to the original vision for Falcon, with added stability and awesome graphics to boot! Definitely more of a "study" sim than FF, and if you love F16s, you have a winner!

And as has been said before, the more the better! I'll always support all Falcon variants, because they keep the community alive. In fact, I'm still completing my current AF campaign before dedicating full flight time to BMS. Falcon FTW!

Already digging into BMS with a friend, the graphics of FF turned me off I'm afraid. I'd love to fly the SR-71 but it doesn't really do it for me, when it doesn't resemble Real life enough. BMS however is pretty awesome. especially explosions and fire effects are better than any other flight sim I've seen so far (maybe save for Rise of Flight)

BMS for multiplayer stability - actually stability in general. Haven't had a CTD at all. F4AF is now officially redundant.
BMS for latest hardware support. Playing on Eyefinity 5760x1080, everything maxed and it's glorious.
BMS for widescreen 3D pit that almost rivals ED's. Pretty damn good effort.
BMS for the most comprehensive F-16 avionics suite there is.

FF for flying other aircraft (that's still modifying the underlying F-16)
but you lose out on the above.
