Yes it will work, all you need is the falcon4.exe file. Not sure if you can extract it from the download or if you have to install. cheers

You have to install it. But once installed, you can copy the exe somewhere and then uninstall it and just retain the exe for any future BMS installs.

Thx for the help smile Will buy on GOG and try it out.

Since I was a kid in the early 80's I have always loved the F16 as it was the newest airplane in the Danish Air Force.

When a Draken or Starfighter flew buy it was cool. But when several falcons came flying it was just great smile Best was when they where simulating air attacks on the local bridge here in Sønderborg. To this day the F16 is to me the most beautiful fighter plane ever build.

As much as I love DCS it still lags for me the immersion and feeling of being in a real war. Something I felt older sims like LB2 and others had. I hope Falcon can create that feeling on top of letting me play with my favorite airplane.


Noob in current sims, but played tons of combat sims back in the 80's and 90's

Flying:
DCS World 2 Beta
Prepar3d primarily GA planes
Elite Dangerous

And I love games like XCOM, Fallout etc


System:
I7-2600k, MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X 8 gigs, 16 gigs memory,Thrustmaster Warthog, Thrustmaster MFD, Saitek pro flight pedals and TrackIR 5
Saitek yoke, multipanel, radiopanel and switch panel
3* Dell U2414H

Correct. Good also to run the old Falcon and see how far we have come.

The BMS team has announced an agreement with the holders of the Falcon 4 intellectual property (Tommo) that involves the next release of BMS (4.33.1) requiring an installed version of Falcon 4. I think this is a very good thing and hopefully will ensure BMS continues long into the future without risk of being shutdown or driven underground over copyright issues.

According to the post the new version of BMS isn't an incremental installer. It will be a new BMS install.

Falcon 4 can be bought on Tommo's Retroism, Steam and GOG.com

Steam has both standalone Falcon 4 and the Falcon Collection that includes Falcon 4.

Retroism: (Falcon Collection)

GOG: (Falcon Collection)

Steam (Falcon 4):

Steam (Falcon Collection):
