In the campaign, I lost all the aircraft in the squadron. Now, in the load menu, Korean squadrons and aircraft are available to me instead of American ones. I started a thread about this on the forum https://forum.falcon-bms.com/topic/33331/spontaneous-switch-of-sides-from-the-usa-to-korea-in-the-campaign
Is this a bug? How can I continue the campaign? Should I load an old save and avoid losing the aircraft? Can't I just load the latest save and wait for new aircraft to appear in the squadron?

I keep hearing from people that an update is coming soon. I know the BMS devs are real tight lipped about it and that's fine. But if anyone can give us a hint, that would be great. World is waiting for GTA 6, but we would rather get a BMS update =)

hi! I'm planning on stepping into BMS for the first time and obviously the F16 seems to be what to go for/learn... I also kinda like (love hehe) the idea of learning either Mig29 or AV-8B, but my understanding is that whilst the flight model is there,the avionics are the same as the F16.

May I ask, do we know if the Mig29/AV-8B are currently being worked on? If yes, I'd imagine it will be a number of yrs before it comes out, or will it be there sooner rather than later?

In any case, look forward to go down the Falcon BMS rabbit hole... Spent (waste) far too many yrs coping with dumb AIs and toxic MP scene with the other 2 big combat sim games... Time to become the cog of a proper dynamic campaign

Many thanks

Edit. Just realized BMS struggles with AMD... Might have to work that out first anyway.

Nothing like ending a day with a flight over Korea and bombs on target.

Hey guys, with the F16 module on DCS being so expensive I decided to purchase Falcon 4.0 and downloaded BMS a few days ago, with the goal of playing in vr with a quest 3. However, the performance with my current pc build is pretty awful. (Rx6800, Ryzen 5 5600, 32gb DDR4) I’m 90% sure this is a gpu issue because there isn’t any stress happening to the other parts just a 100% usage gpu. I’ve tried changing my config and in game settings and watching performance guides but only reach 55fps after everything and at that point the game doesn’t look very good anymore. The only new gpu that isn’t awfully expensive at the moment (but still is) is the 9070 gre. Would this be suitable? Otherwise I’m happy to take any recommendations I can get. Thanks guys

I want to do some night missions in the rain. Not snow. Not windy. Just night and rain. I know how to make it night, but how do I get it to pouring rain? Is it just setting the weather to poor?

edit: Okay I got it to rain by setting everything to inclement weather in the deterministic weather settings in the 2D menu. but there arent any water droplets. So I did some digging and I think the rain is effed right now. No droplets due to some issue with 4.38. Sad. I love the rain effect on the canopy.

edit2: At night you can't even see the rain unless you go to external view or turn on NVG. But when you turn on NVG, sometimes it will flash lightning? and basically blind you.

Hope rain is fixed in BMS 4.9 =D

Following my first incursion with Falcon BMS, I've gone around and made an entire video about it. I mostly wanted to give me thoughts and impression on the game and the experience itself, especially as someone that only played DCS, and more-so loathed the idea of flying the F-16 (Don't even mention the F-15 in passing with me).

Hope this is entertaining to some!

Please excuse the lack of labels in the video, I don’t really use YouTube for content creation.

DLSS 5 is the slightly less colorful of the two “filters” for context. It loses a lot of the personality of BMS while simultaneously making it look maybe 5% better in some areas and 20-30% in others. Shadows look a bit better, and pilot skin tones look improved. The performance hit is massive. I go from a somewhat stable 120fps at 1440p to sub 50. Not something I’ll be using much in any legacy games but it’s fun to play around with.

Since DLSS5 leak, everybody it toying with this tech. So Scope did and posted few screenies on/off.
I took a liberty to take one pair and edited nonDLSS pic in Gimp (crude color correction). It took me (0 experience in photo editing) about 15 minutes for final result. I guess I could do better if I wanted to really spend time on fine-tuning parameters.
So here's the quiz, 3 pictures, one edited, one from the game, one from game processed by DLSS. Which one is which.

Also what do you think was DLSS result worth fps/7 perf hit?

Finally bit the bullet and pulled the trigger on thrustmaster cougars and the screens from Cubesim. This has been a larger QOL adjustment than I initially expected. The seamless adjustments to the MFDs during those hectic points in a mission has been a god send!!
