Hello,
I, finally have a fix for Falcon 4 BMS and it is ONLY for HelixVision wich is payware but only a few bucks on Steam and a WMR VR Headset. It should work with Oculus as Opentrack has a input for that as well but untested.. This is untested in a 3D Vision setup as well but I don't see why it would not work but you would need to use the older nVidia driver that still supports 3D.
Also there are a few extra steps to get it working. First off you need to get OpenTrack found here:
At, the time I wrote this they just released V2.3.13, which should work as well as newer versions. but if you have issues try the version I noted above 2.3.12..
So Once you get Open track unzip or install Open track and run it. you should see the Opentrack page open. Set the "Input" to SteamVR, Set the Output too : "FreeTrack 2.0 Enhanced".
On the Opentrack GUI select the hammer next too FreeTrack 2.0 Enahnced and select both on the Protocols page..
You will need to set your Own curve the default one seems to be 1:1 so you will need to make it snap more to be able to look back and still see the Screen.
In F4 BMS goto "Setup", "Controllers" then click "Advanced". In "View Control" make sure to tick "Enable Cockpit Track IR" no need for Vector, at least I( did not check it not sure if it even worked?
Now when you are in game you should see an overlay left side. to set the mouse cursor to your liking press the "/" and "*" keys like it states in the overaly.. Once you have the mosue cursor set ingame you can press F2 to shutt off the overlay..
This Sim is best played with a HOTAS type Joystick, either Cougar or Warthog or many opther fine HOTAS setups out there.. but Best with a Thrustmaster Cougar..
You can get BMS v4.35.2 from Benchmark Sim (Releases and updates) part of thee forums top of the forum page. I will post a link to the forums.
There are guides and help for the Sim at the Benchmark forums linked here:
If you have any questions I will try and keep up with this thread for a while.
One more thing BMS requires a Legal copy of Falcon 4 installed on your PC as BillionSoft IP holder of F4 request we have at least that.. you can get F4 on GOG and such.
here is the link to the Fix incase you would want to manually install it for 3D Vision. but this was made for Helixvision and all is there but here is the link:
If you have ANY question regarding F4 BMS and the fix I will try and answer them or not..
Thank you to Losti for his HUD tool Worked perfectly here..
ohh and everything besides the 1 splash screen should be fixed. if you do see something OFF Please mention it, I will try and get it Fixed ASAP..
