2 pointsEstán mal las matriculas, los DA tenían las matriculas I-001, I-002, I-020 y I-021...los Dagger B eran C-425, C-426, C-438 y C-439 The registrations are wrong, the DA had registration I-001, I-002, I-020 and I-021, Dagger B had C-425, C-426, C-438 and C-439

2 pointsFeb 28th, 1994 On this day in history the first ever active combat in NATO's history took place southwest of Banja Luka in Bosnia and Herzegovina when six Serbian Air Force light attack jets were engaged by USAF F-16C's of the 526th TFS. Captain Robert Gordon "Wilbur" Wright and Captain Stephen L. "Yogi" Allen immediately destroyed four aircraft between them with an additional aircraft later reported by the Serb's as destroyed after being hit by a missile explosion while trying to escape in low-level flight. Feb 28th is also my daughter's birthday and indeed she was born in 1994 which is probably why I don't actually remember this air combat action.

2 pointsKJakker, Those files did the trick. I now have smoke. I checked some of my other installs and found the smoke markers didn't work in them either. Now they're smoking. Thanks for your help. Geary

1 pointJust a little too pricey for me, but for some of the CA high-rollers, the link below takes you to a website advertising "possibly the last unrestored P-51D" (former Guatemalan AF) along with many spares including twenty Merlin powerplants. Lots of detailed pix of aircraft and spares: https://www.platinumfighters.com/p-51d-n38227

1 pointIt's been some months now, but I'm fairly certain I was using that LOD-Viewer to try and determine which component was the source of the toggle switches. With the idea of doing exactly what you sugggest, disabling them in the cockpit.ini. Despite giving it a good college try, I couldn't find the source component.

1 pointThe last of my work on these models and I will make more after I get feedback from Stratos.

1 point@Geary Just to check, you are putting things into the mods folder at "C:\Users\"UserName"\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2" and not the main folder at "C:\Program Files (x86)\ThirdWire\Strike Fighters 2" correct? I have attached my effects folder with an adjusted MissileObject.ini file. Backup your effects folder and give mine a try. My Effects folder.7z Also, I have attached some smoke rockets for you to test. Smoke Rockets.7z

1 pointI have moved over the save games fe2 from my old install that I saved while running Windows 7 in the Windows 10 save games /FE2 folder and works just great, thank you again for your help. For anyone reading this and are contemplating moving to Windows 10 in my opinion it is better than my old Windows 7 and I never thought I would say that.

1 pointYou have to set the path to your SF2-directory in Extras->Settings. Otherwise it doesn't know, where to find the LODs.

1 pointMy F-4 throttle handles and associated panels arrived. They are in pretty good condition. There were some buttons on the left throttle whose function I couldn't identify. After searching the internet, I found a reference from a book I have read that revealed the functions of the unidentified buttons. From Ed Rasimus' "Palace Cobra: A Fighter Pilot in the Vietnam War", "... and simultaneously reach over the front of the inboard throttle to hit the dogfight button on the front that will switch the radar to five-mile scope and boresight. All I'll have to do is put the gun sight on the MiG and the radar will feed the AIM-7 a lock-on. If I need the gun, a flip of the tiny switch on the outboard throttle with the pinky on my left hand will give me the Vulcan." So in the early 1970's, F-4s were already modified to have a basic HOTAS: a button to engage boresight radar mode and a switch to enable the gun. Not too much later, the famous 556 mod would give the F-4E an outboard throttle grip pinky switch to select guns / AIM-9 / AIM-7. As the DCS World F-4E will be a late ARN-101 version, it will probably reflect the 556 mod or better. I may need to modify my authentic throttle grips to account for later revisions of their switch configuration.

1 pointThink I've got it - its a sort of extra-curricular, aeronautical engineer-hangar mechanic-flightsim game. Or if your designing terrains of campaigns, a sort of God mode strategy-historian-flightsim game

0 pointsOver the years I've heard rumors that the reason there were so many MiG-17's is because they reproduce through mitosis. Here's a picture of the process:
