Adding my two cents again: If you get only blank MFDs when switching the master modes, that is not a bug but a feature, you´ll need to programm your prefered MFD setups in the DCU for the Modes. Just like the EWS programms, you´ll just need to do it once. Click on the DCU symbol right of the map, the second one from below to programm it. If your EWS system doesn´t work, that is because you haven´t set up the EWS programs. BMS runs rock solid on my Wind 7 64 also. Awesome, all of that sounds pretty complicated but in the end it´s not complicated at all.

manually setting dtc is an option of course, however using RESET button under each dtc tab would make things even more easier...

The original is cheaper on Amazon (used) than AF anyway.

Stupid question though: Does F4 need to be installed to get BMS to work? I thought I read that BMS simply needs the disk to authenticate things?


confused I want to know this, this BMS need the disc or need F4 installation? if it need the disc, can I replace it with iso or something? cause I don't have F4 too, and no, before anyone suggesting buying online, it's out of question for me.

I actually thought the flight model was a little weird to me, it felt like jello. I only put in about 15-20 minutes so far, maybe I don't have things set right, I'm still messing around with it.

FYI, if anyone is interested, the first seller here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B...;condition=used

is offering the manual only for about $8 shipped.

I never played Falcon, but now looks like a good time to jump in. I'm assuming the operations portions of the manual are still pretty relevant?


You only need the exe file not the whole CD, the exe is only about 8mb.

True that, it does makes things easier, but then I do like to fiddle with things and the dtc, is a nice way to cumtomize your own aircraft. You just got to love all the details on this sim.

Can anyone tell me how to zoom with the TGP? What keystroke?


I will ignore all ideas for new works and engines of war, the invention of which has reached its limits and for whose improvement I see no further hope.

Thanks, but no cigar, that only changes the FOV.

EDIT: I got it, mapped MAN RNG to one of the rotaries on my X52 Pro throttle. It's on page 89 in the manual.

Hey guys, After hearing about BMS-4 being released, I thought I'd give it a go. I bought the original when it first came out, and thank God I always kept it. Question tho, Does the old squadron leader binder still apply, or has things changed so much that I have to read the new manual? And what about the old key card, is it of any value? Looking forward to this anyway, but would hate to have to do a bunch of printing.

Thanks.

I think some still applies but a lot has changed or has been added, I'd read both. You can Alt + Tab BMS, I do so all the time and have experienced no problems with it yet.

@BeachAV8R

Lack of resources (HDD space or VM), or possibly corrupted down load (which is less likely if you got this far), or permissions (try loading as Admin)

I read a good usage of your HDD would be less than 2/3rd at max. Then you start suffocating your programs running off that disk, something along these lines.

Cheers,
Dirk.
