Just want to let you know new BMS 4.33 update 4 is out with some nice fixes.

https://www.bmsforum.org/forum/showthread.php?32320-Falcon-BMS-4-33-U4-Incremental-Installer

Changelog:

Code
Generic Information:

- The build number string in the Falcon UI reads "4.33.4 Build 16083" after the update

- No data or docu or config files have been changed, this update is a pure "code-only" patch

- The shortcuts in the start menu and on your desktop will NOT be renamed to U4, feel free to rename them manually


CODE:

- Updated splash screen and monolog output for the new Falcon copyright holder: Billion Soft (Hong Kong) Limited

- Significant performance improvements for importing ACMI .flt to .vhs:
* Reduced time needed for import by at least a factor of 10 to 20
* Added monolog output, flt file size at START, duration summary and vhs size at DONE

- In the UI chat windows, the participant tree title will now include the number of players in the chat, e.g. "(4)Lobby" instead of "Lobby"

- Increased the disconnect timeouts for the transport layer to 60 seconds for increased stability in "short temporary network loss/disconnect" situations

- Fixed mouse wheel not always working in UI

- Multiple (potential) CTD/hang fixes:
* memory depletion (OOM) CTD originating in a data range overrun
* client CTD when exiting BMS
* CTD related to input device sorting
* CTD in DrawableTrail::DrawChunkBillBoards
* CTD when exiting a campaign on a client due to invalid object access in UpdateIntel
* CTD when checking in with AWACS
* CTD in AirTaskingManagerClass::FindNearestActiveTanker
* infinite loop in AirframeClass::CalcMach
* CTD in VU message handling

Thanks for the headsup. Nothing in that changelog looks too exciting, but if MP code is better that's a good thing.


No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

Well ACMI recording process 2 - 5 minutes instead hour after campaign flight is pretty awesome to me.

I'm still confused about the IP changing hands yet again....

There was a mod that allowed post-mission conversion of ACMI files but I never tried it.... wonder if that one was better than the new BMS offering but I guess it prompted them to get their butts in gear regarding ACMI conversion so that's a good thing! smile
