Known Limitations
- Mirrors will only show once canopy closed
- VR is still an early iteration, do not expect a fully featured experience (mouse needed)
- F-15C cockpit is a Work In Progress (it cannot be used for ramp start)
- Falcon BMS will default to new launcher but old launcher still available at root folder installation
Warning
- For voice activated commands: A lot of changes were made, make sure you update your scripts…
- Key files have been reworked
- As usual, Falcon BMS.cfg is restored to default
