2.3 THEATER INSTALLATION
NOTE: All theaters released prior to F4-BMS 2.0 are not officially supported, you are on your
own! That said, here is some advice to get you started:
¿ Install F4-BMS 2.0 per above instructions.
¿ Install the theater.
¿ It is important to note here that a proper theater installation program should copy the
necessary files it needs into its own theater directory. Also, the <theater>.tdf and
<theater>.tga files are copied into the [FalconRoot]\terrdata\theaterdefinition\ folder. The
main benefit of this is that multiple theaters can be installed, without affecting your current
BMS installation.
¿ Copy and paste the [FalconRoot]\terrdata\weather\ folder into the theater’s terrdata folder.
If you do not perform this step, the theater will CTD.
¿ After switching to the new theater in-game, you will need to compress textures via the
[FalconRoot]\TexCompress.exe and SeasonSwitcher.exe tools.
