Guys, is there like an idiot's guide to getting BMS set up somewhere that I can use? Been thinking about trying it for a while.

Check the tutorial vids section. That combat ready in whatever by krause I believe should be a good start. Although it might be outdated on some details it should tell you most things regarding setting all up. Afterwards let me/us know for some training if you like

Superb, Dickie! Thanks!
@Dave: i will post a total beginners Guide in the next couple of days. See "combat ready in 1 Hour" in the Video section in the meantime.
@falcon: it would be wise to Name Moderators for the bms Forum section (i suggest you and me!?) i want to clean Up and restructure the section.

Actually I believe I already got the mod tools in here. But sure I wouldn't mind you having some power in here since you're doing some stuff for bms. Will ask Dickie/Pitti about it.

Ugh, next time I catch you guys on TS I'll need to ask you some questions... Game seems to be a complete mess if you have a multi-monitor setup - I'm able to choose between a stretched fullscreen mode that fucks my other displays, or a windowed mode that tries to spread the game halfway across two monitors. Not impressed.

maybe this is of help:
https://www.bmsforum.org/forum/showthre ... ftTH/page3

software named SoftTH.
its an older post that refers to 4.32, but software-wise it should still be valid.

@miki: please post your display extraction settings or third party software, if you use any.

None. I only set Cockpit Displays to External Windows ON, in Hardware/External Displays in the Config. So my game is running in windowed mode.

How many monitors do you have Dave ? As I got 3, my main screen is in the middle. But I assume that if you've got 4, BMS should be splitted between two screens...

Dave, activate Display extraction and then look to adjust the position of the main screen. You'll find everyting in the launcher.
