Harlequin

I've got one too that expires tomorrow. Anyone who wants it is welcome to it. Send me a PM. :)

Stumbled on this post and happened to see my nick on a short list. Just wanted to note that I've never logged on to any of your arma servers, so someone else is using the same nick as me. That's my only defense! :)

Tenore, You should get yourself aquainted with the BMS manual so you already have a "gist" of how MP works (re: connections and bandwidth settings) so when you get on teamspeak, you're really looking for guys to get in the air with rather than learn how to connect. Things to look into: - make sure your game is installed and working properly in single player; - make sure you have your router ports forwarded and exceptions made in any firewalls you have; - learn how to set your datacartridge (check the BMS site); - check out the "Training" channel in teamspeak. RAM is busy putting together a checklist and "no-no" list for MP stuff. We'll be happy to help out, but it's going to be easier for all of us if you've already got a headstart. See you up ther! :)

Beetle, There are known (at least to others) issues with AI fuel consumption. There are a couple of forum posts about it over at the BMS site. Can't say as i've had problems on a BARCAP specifically though. I haven't had any issues when i check-out with the AWACS, so i can't help there. RAM can probably expand on the AI fuel crap.

LOL!! Love the recon shot. Mission accomplished. (i know about the different hosts... just having some fun). :)

The havoc of Blud, Dante and Harley. That's what 6 JSOWs will get you. Kabloowie!! Oddly enough, that same nuke plant also saw a visit from Mr. RAM and me earlier in the evening. Man, those koreans sure can build fast, as i'm pretty sure we got 'er good the first go around. Thanks for the flights tonight boys! Good fun...

Here's RAM (in the background on the left) going in for a closer look at the water tiles (i.e.: lagging like nuts). Mmmmm... pretty. Harley and RAM 60mi to target and into a SA-10 nightmare that neither of us recognized before we jumped into the 'pit. Here's a pic from a little earlier in the evening. That's me in the foreground with Tunechi immediately on my ass and BeetleBailey leading the 2nd element just behind. Tunechi, disgusting skills man. That's some tight flying! He'll maintain that distance while you're turning, bombin, landing... whatever. Thanks to all!!

RAM you sonofabitch!! LOL!! That loadout was for your eyes only!! DEE-JAY!!! COME GET THIS BASTARD FOR ME... DEE-JAY!!! Yeah guys, hop aboard! Always up for a fun flight. Never too serious. Look at RAM! Even after i planted a heater up his tail pipe a few weeks ago, he's still willing to fly with me. What a hero! Thanks buddy! LOL

I just downloaded and installed the above mod for BMS last night and i have to say that it looks great. I highly recommend it. Included with the mod is some legs with kneeboards (showing airbase and strip info currently) for the pilot! Looks great and helps with the immersion. Not sure if Blud is going to host it hear or not, but here's the original thread from the BMS Forum: http://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?8226-RELEASE-Blk40-42-HUD-Mod Similarily, you can give your pilot legs in the Blk-50 & 52 with this mod: http://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?7091-Pilot-model-fo-F-16&highlight=pilot+body Also recommended! Clear skies...

Bah to the manual! If you've flown any of ther other falcons, just jump in the pit and run some missions with us. It isn't that different in the air once you figure out the whole data cartridge thing.

Sweetness!! Glad to hear it's working out. Enjoy!

Try disabling the intro movie. There's a switch in the configuration menu before loading the sim.

Just got in the door. Need a little time to sort out/settle the kids and then it's "go time". Say, 10pm eastern or so? RAM, thanks for posting the files, i was going to ask to make sure i have the latest.

The RAM and I are going to try some BMS Balkans theatre tonight. Who's in?

BETA testing shall commence in 3 - 4 weeks!!! LOL Sign me up... Can't wait to check 'er out. Thanks RAM and King_Richard!

Able to zoom tonight with my BB Bold. All seems to be well now, but I'm not sure what changed. Thanks guys!

I've been checking in this week on my mobile, but I'm having issues with not being able to zoom in on the page. I've done some reading and it sounds like it is possible to disable zooming within the website code (gmail does it). So, can anyone else confirm if they have any issues with their handhelds? Could easily be my lack of experience with this phone (it's new and I'm used to using it for email only). I can zoom other webpages without issue. Thanks!

=VG= BLuDKLoT LAN_WROTE ... I'm ready for some BMS! Just sayin. Hear that! I'll be up for some when I'm back home on saturday. It's been WAY too long...

Yeah man, i'm up for some flights. Hopefully tonight!! TS3 shit pending of course... Welcome aboard Gumby!

I'm so ashamed... Sorry again RAM. F'n awesome shots though. Love the JDAM/Bridge pic!! Great fun last night. Jisoku's mission was unreal. Too bad his BMS crashed just as we were 10 mi from target (200 ft above the water, radar silent, screaming at 580+ kts and MIGS all around us). I wanna try again tonight!! Jisoku... you should try making up a TE of last nights setup... guys are going to love it.

Great flights tonight guys!! Here's some shots of the smoking carnage in the background after a hot-pit refuel. JB in frame. (pic 1) Pic 2: Blud, Jisoku and JB in front (carnage still smokin') !thx Pic 3: In formation back to homebase. Awesome.

RAM22 LAN_WROTE ... We encountered and I killed one, then I killed Terremer cause he didn't say it was him Yeah... blame Terremer!! "He practically made me shoot him!" !crazy I saved that campaign from the other night. Looking forward to continuing it later this week...

I wanted to say "thank-you" to all veterans and millitary folks here for your courage and sacrifice on this Remembrance Day (as it's known in Canada).

Cool... let's hook it up! I've sat in TS3 many nights without anyone joining unforutnately. Was nice last saturday to see Ladr6 and Griff though. Anyone else interested?

Hey all! I'm eager to have some pseudo-regular BMS MP flights. Things have been slow on the BMS/FF front over here for the last few weeks, so i thought i'd reach out to see if there is still any interest. Because it's been a little slow here, i've been considering hooking up with a virtual fighter wing. I hesitate as i suspect i will always be somewhat of a casual pilot, and the VFW's seem pretty intense. I have always enjoyed the "generally" relaxed atmosphere here, while still maintaining a high level of skill and some humour as well. So... is there interest in some regular flights? A running campaign that someone is willing to host on their machine perhaps (not a dedi, just a series of save games)? Anyone who just wants to tag along with me and laugh as i a) forget to set master arm on; b) forget what i've bound my brakes to while landing; c) shoot you down with a heater just 'cause i got excited and you "might" be a bogey... etc. Probably a bad time to be asking considering the release of BF3 this week, but i'm anxious for some fun.
