Are there any aircraft carrier simulators available for consoles?

Hi mate.

BMS 4.33.1 can be obtained here;

http://www.bmsforum.org/forum/content.php?

You have to register, to get into the foums and obtain the d/l link. As Skybird and Raptor point out you will need Falcon 4 to install the the BMS pack (which I must add, is free ) You can find Falcon 4 on GOG for hardly any cash. Hope this helps.

Best regards.

Ok, I will follow the advice given. Hopefully my ancient laptop is up to the task. Not sure my girlfriend wants me to high jack her newly bought power desktop too much, haha.

Does the game still only demand the graphical power of a 90s flight sim or have the mods increased the graphical fidelity many levels beyond that?

Ok mate sorry to rain on your parade, but things have got a tad more demanding, however you can always turn those graphics down a notch or so.

Buy the GF a nice dinner somewhere (lets say the SHARD) and say.... oh sweetheart would you mind it so much if I installed this minutest of games on your d/t. Might work, might not, if not leave the girl and buty a desktop

My laptop is old but cost quite a bit 6 years ago (approx. £1200). Hopefully I can use it if I turn down the graphics to maintain frame rate. What quality level flight stick would I need?

AS is always the case in these matters, the best you can afford and are comfortable with, I used a CH HOTAS for many years but have recently upgraded to Thrustmaster Warthog.

As a keen FS9 (Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004) player, I've often thought about getting this:



A lot of folks still are devoted to fs9... there are so many add-ons now to make it look good, and the great thing is that your PC doesn't have to be an animal to run it.

This disc is always available on Ebay etc at a low price.

PS: don't listen to any advice that Fubar2Niner gives you, he is just bragging about his prowess with women again...

Under no circumstances listen to what Eichh says, he is part of the rebel alliance and a traitor.
