    Absolutely brilliant and essential! I just fired up Falcon after a long hiatus and this guide helped my setup. Things I didn't even know I had set incorrectly before. The Nvidia panel settings are spot on. The ghosting glow was very annoying. Thank you! Very well Docu-men-tated.... That chamber music in the background... Made me want to fire up my copy of Barry Lyndon.....

I'm not seeing this folder am i missing something. What do i need to buy on steam to have everything? I'm using old disc copy One thing to note is when adding -window in shortcut, Win 10 will ask you to have Admin privilege if those on Win 10.

      Rolland G Hi Rolland... You need to get Falcon BMS. If you already have falcon 4.0 then that's all you need to buy... Then head over to www.benchmarksims.org and download BMS 4.33. Follow the very detailed setup procedure... This will get you up to date with Falcon.... Then the Balkans is an add on campaign where you can also download from benchmark Sims in the theatre section. You will need to register on benchmark Sims.org to access the forum and to be able to download anything. Good luck and read the forums and docs for very precise and detailed help.

    • @doatg1967
      @doatg1967 6 років тому

      Thanks i already installed Falcon 4 and Falcon BMS 4.33. I started watching your guide, but seen i don't have Balkans Folder? I installed Full installer to my existing install directory of BMS. Should i do a clean install? Also when i launch the game it goes to my taskbar i put game into window mode using -window. If i remove the -window command i can play in full screen. I like the option to play in window mode not having to alt tab every time.

    • @UnleashedCode
      @UnleashedCode  6 років тому +1

      Rolland G okay...your almost there.... You won't have the Balkans folder until you download and install the Balkans Theatre (one of the best theatres ever made)... With regard to task bar and no screen.... Go open the launcher and go down to 'cockpit display extraction' then click on Main and make sure you have 0 in left,top,width,and height in the boxes.... Should solve the issue.

    Hi Code! How do you get this confirmation "beep" when Voice Attack recognized one of your commands? Is this a premium feature, or did you just bind an external audio file with every command? 'Cause I just use the free-version. Also, is there a way to get rid of the command input window in BMS. It's not necessary any longer if we use VA. (same with player-voice ofc.)
    Thanks for your good BMS content! ;)

    • @UnleashedCode
      @UnleashedCode  7 років тому +1

      Sorry I missed your comment and am late replying, yeah I just bound a beep to every command in the software ;). I have the full version of the software but I believe the only difference is the ammount of commands that you can bind. Don't think you can get rid off the command window though. Pleased your enjoying the videos

    Hi man, thanks a lot for all this help. But in my case i put the game on window mode (-window) but his still with borde's. How i can put him in bordeless? ( Thnk i miss this information on video x.x)

    • @UnleashedCode
      @UnleashedCode  4 роки тому

      Thats literally all yhou have to do to run it in window mode is add the -window option on the launch icon. 2d will always be small and in game will be borderless 3d. Another way and also recommended way of doing this is to install the "Alternative Launcher". You can get that from here : www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?31774-Falcon-BMS-Alternative-Launcher-(Easy-Setup-Keep-Joystick-Assignments)/ It is one of the config options there... also it will properly direct x bind all your controllers overall making for an easier setup. Good luck... get stuck at any point and head to the benchmarksim.org forums. Here you will find plenty of help.

    Great tutorial and for a recent version is a bonus! I have one issue though I'm having trouble finding the answer too. The windowed interface is great (which I prefer) but when I I commit I only see the desktop. I hear the game and can see it when I alt-tab but can't bring up the game? .

    • @UnleashedCode
      @UnleashedCode  6 років тому +1

      That's unusual, Not sure how to help on that. I would check in the BMS Launcher go down to Cockpit Display Extraction.... click that. Then go to Main and put in Left 0, Top 0, Width 0, and Height 0 (by default I think Width and Height should be grayed out anyways)... then make sure the Window box is ticked and Borders is not ticked. Rotation as 0 and no mirroring. Then save and close and try again. In 3d the game should just load in. I would hit some forums on this if it doesn't help.

    • @UnleashedCode
      @UnleashedCode  3 роки тому

      With regards to 4.35 onwards this video is not really current. Some of the setting will be different if you don't have a gsync monitor and if you card doesn't support certain techs.... I have a 1070 if that helps. In 4.35 they implemented Direct X 11 where this video was really geared to getting the best out of direct X 9. Nevertheless, many of the options mentioned in here are still good but a bit of trying and testing is required on your part to get the best experience visually. Hope that helps a little.

      You have limited options..... reduce the resolution or the workload on your card, use gsync or freesync if you have it, or enable vsync or cap the frame rate of the card.
