Hi Guys

 

I used to play WOV with many "column5" aircraft some years ago. Now I reinstalled it on my Win10 PC (thanks to the guide from this forum) but I realised, that the old column5 website doesn´t exist anymore?!?

I´m searching some of their aircraft (or better versions) for my WOV:

Mig 21 + Mig 29 both in NVA (East German Army) livery

F5 Tiger preferably in the black Top Gun "Mig 28" livery

F-14 preferably in the Top Gun livery

 

It would be very nice if someone could help me?

Thanks and happy landings!

Markus

They have been upgraded & migrated to our SF2 downloads section, or no longer exist.

personally, i feel its a waste of time and effort on a win10 machine to install 1st gens and then try to find all the addons, when SF2 just pretty much drops in.

Thank you guys for the replies.

I know the game is old, but for me it´s a part of my childhood...I guess that´s the reason for playing it again. And now with all the Corona shit I´ve more than enough time for "fighting on the computer" :D

And what about the yankee air pirate 3 mod? Is it worth the money?

I believe it is I have Yap/Yap Rising sun/Yap Fighter weapons school/Yap training school/and a few dlc ships you can use the carriers and ships for strike fighters two but really hard to convert the weapons to sf2 though there is a knowledge base about it good luck

Sigh.  The most worthwhile part of YAP's digital store are the carrier models, but those are often problematic within the community.  I will not elaborate further.

The aircraft models require a ton of modding to get them to work in SF2, and they're still not (in my opinion) as good as what is already on here.  For example, the YAP Tomcat model and the MF Tomcat model (available here for free) are miles apart in fidelity and presentation, the YAP model is nowhere near the quality of the MF model.

The YAP carriers are very, very good and I'm glad I bought them.  The YAP A-6 model isn't bad, but it isn't as good as the RAZBAM version, which in my opinion is the best Intruder model made for SF2.

The most disappointing and frustrating YAP product is their Charlie-model Hornet in Carrier Pack 4.  I had to quit trying to get that thing to work, it was maddening.

I might have the ice man and maverick paint scheme for the mirage factory and possibly the mig-28 F-5E

Thank you very much Crusader!!! I loved the column5 website in the older days :-)

 

2nd question a bit offtopic. After the advise at the beginning I´m thinking about switching to SF2. Which version is the best? Europe or NA? Are they all running on a Win10 PC?

      Hi,
      a couple of months ago i discovered this gorgeous total conversion called "Yankee Air Pirate", and that the "REVAMP" edition for SF2 (the original one was for WOV) existed, and other awesome total conversions like "Drug Wars" and "Flight School" too, so i got ready to download them, but since i hadn't enough space at the time, i waited.
      Now i come back on the website to find out all the links and pages about the revamp are gone, there's only the original ones for SF1 series.
      Do anyone of you know why they're gone? Will they come back? They're maybe updating the mods?
      Thanks

      Hi everyone,
      I'm trying to recreate the 1st Gulf of Sidra Incident with my F-14A Tomcats and my Su-22M3 Fitters, doing it extremely historically accurate, paying attention to every little detail.
      So far i've done everything, and it's almost identical to the real one, but there's ONE issue i can't figure out, let me explain:
      During the morning of the 19th of August 1981 two F-14A Tomcats intercepted two Libyan Su-22M3 Fitters in the Gulf of Sidra.
      The Fitters were equipped with two AA-2 "Atoll".
      Just before the merge, while nose-to-nose, one of the two Fitters fired a missile to one of the two Tomcats, but being the missile a very old and primitive heatseeker, it started tracked and going for the Tomcat, but as soon as the F-14 made a slight break, the Atoll lost its track.
      The PROBLEM IS:
      There's no way i can make the Fitters shoot the missiles before merging, if only the AA-2, or any other equippable missile was all-aspect or radar guided just like the R-23, i think it would work.
      I tried having a head-on merge with two Mig-23 Floggers equipped with radar guided R-23s and they shot at me before merging.
      I tried all other available missiles and nothing changed, some didn't show either.
      I tried copying and pasting the Data file from the Aim-7 to the R-60 Data file, and nothing changed.
      I tried changing the loadout file to R-23, but the Fitters show up without any weapon since there's no R-23 option in loadout for Su-23M3s, so i think it's not possible to have them (and would be historically inaccurate too).
      I tried changing enemy difficulty from Normal to Hard, but nothing changes still.
      The only thing the Fitters do is shooting their guns just before the merge, but no missiles are fired when nose-to-nose.
      Is there a way to fix this? A way i can make my Fitters fire at least one of their missiles when we're nose-to-nose, just like when i got nose-to-nose against Floggers equipped with R-23s?
      Is it a problem with the enemy AI? Or with the missiles? Or maybe even with the Su-22M3 Fitter i'm using?
      Thank you very much for helping me

      Hi everyone,
      I just noticed that the speed indicator in the F-14 Tomcat by TMF (TheMirageFactory) only shows up to 800 kts, and the Mach indicator does not move, not letting you know the speed of the aircraft if you have your HUD turned off.
      As you can see down here, i'm at Mach 2.23, but the indicator only shows 800 kts and doesn't go above. Obviously it adapts to my altitude, so if i'm higher, then the IAS is lower, but still should move, making it impossible flying at high speed without HUD turned on as i have it down here:

      Another issue, maybe even worse than the previous one, is that the fuel indicator shows wrong numbers, or as i may think, it shows "a number less". For example: if i have 20000 pounds of fuel left, it should show 20000, but it shows 02000. This is a theory on how it works, not confirmed, and i'm gonna explain you why i think it is like that:
      I hardly think i truly have 2000 pounds of fuel left, cause i choose Fuel 100% and tried climbing and flying for a long time with full afterburner, and the numbers slowly started going down, even reached the point of burning the engine at Mach 2.30and the fuel wasn't gone yet, it showed i had like 00700 left, so i presume it's 20000 in reality, otherwise i would have been out of fuel in no time, since it's a quantity even under the bingo quantity, but i flew for minutes and minutes in full afterburner, and at 8x speed, so. Speaking of Bingo, there's no bingo indicator.
      Here's a picture of the fuel indicator:

      I tried the default F-14 cockpit, and even if that one shows correctly both speed and fuel indicators and even if it's a great cockpit, i personally like more and find more realistic and immersive the TMF one.
      In the end, since these two indicators are crucial, especially for flying without HUD, and the fuel indicator especially, since there's no way to know how much fuel you have left even with HUD turned on other than the cockpit indicator.
      So, what i'm asking is:
      Is there a way to fix these? A mod that remakes the indicators? Or another cockpit that is not the default one that i can use to swap this one?
      Thanks in advance for helping me.
