Nice tutorial 🙂. I use WDP for many years and as much as possible. One thing I still don't understand. What if a host upload a CAMPAIGN .ini (I know how it works with an uploaded TE .ini and it works perfecr) and attending pilots download and save this Campaign .ini file to BMS. Is data ss all the PPT's and Tanker track also saved to the DTC (with WDP) for the attending pilots?
Great for new players. Thanks Max! Now, 4.7 makes the "alternative" launcher default so it's even easier. Advanced setup takes actual research. Don't forget, BMS supports DX SHIFT so if your HOTAS supports that which most if not all do, you have an entire set of controls with the SHIFT function. On CH Products it's the pinky switch on the stick and works for both stick and throttle. RDR cursor control for example is perfect to bind manuallyin the SHIFT set since it's not in the defaults for CH. No need to KB cursors. Same thing to reduce cockpit mousing. Set SHIFT buttons for all those things you want to press all the time but hate rummaging around the cockpit for. Lighting, FLIR, etc. The only thing which won't play nice with SHIFT is if you have TrackIR and you want to set HOTAS buttons to Center, Precision, Pause. Those will either take up buttons or if you're not cool with that, map them to keyboard keys. I prefer them to be on the throttle because I move my position all the time since I'm in a jank cockpit that can move around.
After 10years I am now planning to restart my BMS experience. Primarily due to the 4.37 VR option. I would like to hear your opinion on the TARGET tool of the Warthog. I worked with that very little for DCS. does it make sense to use it for BMS? If yes I would assume that you would have to launch TARGET to get your "combined" stick+throttle device, to do all the key and axis related stuff Max showed in this vid. Can you confirm? Btw Max thank you so much for sharing your experiences in these vids. Very much appreciated!! Cheers flex
Thank you Max. You are the first who is able to explain me how exactly works cursor movement on TQS on TM HOTAS Warthog. I miss that 5-way button before 🙂
20 year old reincarnated game and somehow every damn video is with the uber rich warthog flight stick....looks like the devs of the remake doesnt like anything other than a hog stick....
Friend, is there any way to play this game with PS4 controller?? I know it's not the more suitable for the game but still, it's what I have here... I tried to configure it but once the game starts, the PS4 controller doesn't respond. The frustrating thing is that when I'm on the configuration options, the commands respond! But once in game, it doesn't answer anymore! =( Is there a way to fix it?? Thanks in advance, buddy!
PS4 isn't the best experience to fly BMS but if you need to useit, you need to make it recognized as a directx device (most probably viewed as an xbox controller)
