Paul My mate had the same problem. luckily we had both down loaded both the black shark files so we played around swapping files and we found that his 800mb (Not the EXE file) file was slightly corrupted during the download process. We used my file and bingo it worked a charm. This does happen every now and then especially if you have a break in the file transfer even though your using a Down Load Manager. Try Downloading the smaller file again first and see if that works if not DL the EXE file. Maybe a friend of yours has it that lives near by if not hope you have a fast connection so the DL is not to painful. Cheers Cyclic

I will give you shout later on the email you have listed on your message. At work right now so Im running around doing stuff. Later dude

help GunDawg if you want some one on one tuition to get to grips with this I would be happy to jump on MP and Team Speak with you and provide a couple hours of inflight entertainment. It is much easier to take in when you have someone flying wing with you explaining the ropes. Let me know and ill drop you an email and server address for TS

Can anyone elaborate on the problems faced in the editor where Ground Units in some cases refure to move down the set WP assignmnet. I do remember an issue where the distance a ground unit could move had issues. I Built a mission the other night and to my dismay found the ground units refused to move. They seemed to have uisees with crossing bridges or that is what it seemed.

I have found that when i place a group of units on the map and assign them way points to move to certain place on the map they will not do it unless the distance is under approximately 5000m What is this about, can someone explain? I have spent 3 hours building a escort mission and now the ground units are too lazy to go the whole distance. :mad:

I have BS installed on my desktop gaming PC (and I might add it runs very nicely at 50+ fps with all options on high) but I would also like to install BS on my laptop so when i travelling for work stuff at night when im bored in my hotel I can build missions. I have installed the game on my laptop but cant run it until its activated. I am worried though that it may electrify my laptop shocking me into a blabbering fool :D and scream theif because it thinks im pirating my copy out. Can someone shed a little light on this:joystick:

Worries Howdy, I have not been on the forum much of late at all but after taking a spin through the questions and asnwers being sent in I see a lot of concern about aircraft models and skins ect ect. What i dont see a lot of concern about (unless i have missed the threads) is the terrain modeling. Now as an old avid member of the Falcon4 community i use to see people spending hours on aircraft modeling (not Flight Model) but exterior looks and for what reason as the only time you get close enough to admire this is maybe on taxi. Flight and cockpit modeling are the most important aspects IMHO. BS is to be released as a Helo sim, I use to spend hours flying LB2 and when I heard about BS I was well made up as we have not seen this quality of Helo sim ever. Everyone keeps asking for Fighter and ground support aircraft to be included and I feel this is defeating the object of having a Helo sim if resources are wasted on something we already have in lockon. I do agree maybe the SU25 and A10 should be included at a later date especially if we see the AH64 comming to the arena but what does concern me most is the terrain modeling not being good enough for NOE flight especially the masking abilities required from trees and buiding to make you more effective. Another issue of course is the Ground Unit AI getting some sort of work over to make them react better to helo Attack. Looking for cover etc. Im sure the above has already been covered but if someone could save me hours of digging through the forum and just drop a 2 line answer to if any serious concern is being given and in what form I would appreciate it. IMHO the NOE terrain currently in LockonFC is great at 1500AGL but sucks at low level. I am ready for a flamming from the Jet Jockies but I just need to know what to expect from BS.
