- ***Falcon 4.0 from Microprose must be installed***
- Minimum System Requirements
OS: Win XP (SP3 or x64), Vista or Win 7, Win 8/8.1, Win 10
CPU: Pentium 4 3.2 GHz or AMD Athlon X2 4800+
RAM: 2 GB
GPU: PCIE 1024 MB DirectX 9.0c compatible
AUDIO: Sound Card – DirectX 9.0c compatible
HDD: 7 GB free space
INPUT: DirectX compatible joystick
VIEW:- Recommended System Requirements
OS: * 64 bit
CPU: Intel i5 3xxx/4xxx or equivalent
RAM: 8 GB
GPU: nVidia GTX-760 series or equivalent AMD adapter or higher
AUDIO: Sound Card – DirectX 9.0c compatible
HDD: 7 GB free space
INPUT: Saitek, CH or Thrustmaster joystick + rudder pedals
VIEW: TrackIR 3 (w/ Vector expansion), 4 or 5 w/ TrackClip PRO- It Rocks On
OS: * 64 bit
CPU: Intel i7 4xxx or 5xxx or equivalent
RAM: 8 GB or greater
GPU: nVidia GTX-980 or equivalent AMD adapter or higher
AUDIO: Sound Card – DirectX 9.0c compatible
HDD: 7 GB free space
INPUT: Thrustmaster Cougar w/ FCC or FSSB modification + rudder pedals & toe brakes
VIEW: TrackIR 4 or 5 w/ TrackClip PRO1 These requirements are merely broad recommendations. Actual performance may vary.
2 Win 7 requires using the new Teamspeak-based Internal Voice Communications (IVC) or an external voice client for voice communications during Multi-player. Microsoft DX10 does not support DirectPlay & DirectPlayVoice. These two components are required for the older IVC that was in previous versions of Falcon. However most will be using the TS client as it is more flexible and far superior. See the Teamspeak IVC article for more information.
3 AGP cards may still run the sim, but may be too slow to turn on all graphics options.
4 Laptop versions of these chipsets may work but are not directly supported. Integrated chipsets are not supported, but may still run.
5 The FCC (Force Controlled Cougar) (by WhiteEagle) and FSSB (by RealSimulator) are force sensitive sensor modifications to replace the spring gimbals inside the TM Cougar stick. They better replicate the feel of the F-16 SSC (Side Stick Controller) and are highly recommended for the most accurate F-16 simulator experience.
6 NaturalPoint TrackIR is highly recommended due to BMS’ fully interactive 3d cockpit. TrackClip PRO is recommended because it provides much better tracking and clips on to your headset (no hat required).
7 The original Microprose Falcon 4.0 software (not Lead Pursuit Falcon 4.0 Allied Force) is required to install Falcon BMS. During installation, the user can provide the original Falcon 4 CD, a clean F4 installation (or 1.08us) or the CD’s contents in a folder on the user’s hard drive. It does not have to be an English language version, however, BMS is in English only. NOTE: BMS does NOT install over-top a clean F4 installation, it is completely separate in its own folder (or folder of the user’s choosing).
8 Win XP support was dropped in 4.33 Update 3–only Update 1 and 2 will work on XP. This was due to future requirements and lack of OS support.Itching to buy new hardware but can’t justify it to your wife? Maybe now you can.
Throughout its history, Falcon 4 has always demanded fast computer hardware. The same holds true today. With upgraded graphics options like shaders, post-processing effects, shader rendering effects like light, glass, shadow and rain effects, and enhancements to the terrain engine, Falcon BMS continues to require (or at least prefer) the latest computer hardware on the market. Hardware that ran previous versions of Falcon may not be able to run BMS to the same degree–especially with all the magic turned on. Check out the graphics article explaining some of these new graphical goodies.
