Thanks Migbuster!

The BMS has a similar bug. That corrected?

I haven't noticed it - but BMS only does Korea by default

Loading up Allied force again. Any upgraded terrain download suggestions or should I stick with stock?

You can buy this still I think - was the one I used to use

If you are worried about gfx then you are out of luck with AF

Thx MigBuster. Could you elaborate on "if you are worried about gfx then you are out of luck with AF"

There is no more support from LP and likely no new mods to come. When I played AF last year, the only improvements I could find at that time were HiTiles and the Skunkworks mod. Also I believe that LP sacrificed some gfx for stability in their programming. BMS has full support and quite a few modders out there sharing their work, including AC skins, better terrain tiles, clouds, theaters of operation, cockpits, etc.

You're right Schnidrman, BMS is at a whole different level from AF. I had BMS 1 through 5 on my previous system when it blew. BMS had a learning curve that I really didn't have the time to absorb as a pretty casual player and coupled with a web site which I had trouble staying on I may be better off enjoying AF as opposed to being frustrated with BMS.
I appreciate your response.

What's the problem with BMS? If you have any questions, I know a couple of other guys that visit SimHQ as well and among us, we can probably answer most of your questions. I used to fly AF but that was years ago.

As said above really - its stuck in some pre DX 9 nightmare - the only way that would change is if any old LP members were still working on the source code and released a DX9 - 11 version for modern hardware - I wouldnt hold my breath on this.

From 2005 to 2009 LP must have been working on something not only AF patches - wonder what happened to all that work!

BMS also has far more modern avionics/weapons - in AF you only had LGBs, dumb bombs and the old limited AAQ-14 LANTIRN - so its doesn't really go past 2000 in that sense.

Could you please state exactly what the key combo is for the nosewheel.Also,I use the danish keymap but nowhere is this key combo listed.Could you perchance tell me where this is printed.Thanks

I have it mapped to the stick, but I think by default it is

shift / (forward slash)

Did that help? Was it wrong? Was it right? This must be the fifth question in a row I've answered in this forum where the person asking the question never acknowledged the response. Maybe I've been shadowbanned, and don't realize it. Because it's a shadowban.
