Sir, we need to talk about your "aggressive stance" and "potentially explosive solution" to what we though was clearly a diplomatic situation................

**How to set up and use a Zeppelin** This method is the only way I've been able to use a Zeppelin in the game. This works for user controlled and AI. The game engine doesn't produce a single aircraft all the time, regardless of how I set up the Formation.INI parameters. I can set my formation or an AI to only have 1 squadron with 1 flight with 1 aircraft, which would be my plane or any other AI aircraft that uses the same Formation Parameter.It seems to work sometimes. But for what ever reason the sim will randomly add a second aircraft (wingman). So some missions my plane or the AI will be flying solo or every 2nd or third mission will have a wingman. I've tried many times to try to change this but to no avail. So, to get a specific aircraft to have its own specialized formation, lets say a Zeppelin, this is what I did: 1. In the "Flight" folder open the NATIONS.INI file and create a new nation and make sure you number it consecutively. In my case I created a nation called "GERMANY_Zeppelin". Save when done. [Nation047] Name=GERMANY_Zeppelin <----------- Add new name DisplayName=German Zeppelin Air Service Alignment=ENEMY PilotNameList=NamesGerman.lst RankList=RanksGAS.lst CallsignList= Formation.Fighter=Fighter Formation.Attack=Attack Formation.Bomber=Zeppelin <----------- add new formation name for Bomber ONLY Formation.Transport=TruckConvoy Formation.Tank=TankSpread Formation.MobileAD=AD PilotTrainingStandard=NORMAL GenderRatio=0 DebriefSuccessMusic=DebriefSuccess.wav DebriefFailMusic=DebriefFail.wav DebriefKilledMusic=DebriefKilled.wav SpeechFile= SpeechTextFile= Medals=MedalsGAS.ini MedalTextFile=MedalsWWI.str ActiveDate=06/30/1918 AlternateDecal=GERMANY_Zep01 <------------\ \ [Nation048] Name=GERMANY_Zep01 ------ Add these parameters for using different decals ActiveDate=03/20/1918 like the "GERMANY" nation uses. AlternateDecal=GERMANY_Zep02 / [Nation049] <------------/ Name=GERMANY_Zep02 ActiveDate=01/28/1914 2. Now in the "Flight" folder open the FORMATIONS.INI. You will have to add a few parameters to this file: 1. Create a new [FormationTypexxx] 2. Create a new [Squadron] formation style 3. Create a new [Flight] formation style add this parameter at the end of the other [FormationTypexxx] parameters. Number it correctly. [FormationType0xx] <------ Add new "Type" number Name=Zeppelin BaseLevel=2 Level[01].Name=Squadron Level[01].Size=1 Level[01].Formation[01]=Squadron_Wall_Zep <------ will be created below Level[02].Name=Flight Level[02].Size=2 Level[02].Formation[01]=Flight_Wall_Zep <------ will be created below Level[03].Name=Element Level[03].Size=1 ************* [Squadron_Wall_Zep] <------ Add this parameter down in the Squadron section after Position[01].Offset= 0, 0, 0 //Position[02].Offset= 500, 0, 0 //Position[03].Offset= 1000, 0, 0 //Position[04].Offset= 1500, 0, 0 ************* [Flight_Wall_Zep] <------ Add this parameter down at the end of the [Flight] section Position[01].Offset= 0, 0, 0 Position[02].Offset= 6550, -1000, 0 <------ Notice the far spread. this will keep the big Zeppelins far away from each other if two appear in a mission * So even though I created my formation to have 1 Squadron, 1 flight with 1 element, the game will still accasionaly produce a second aircraft. that is why I created a wide spread in the [Flight_Wall_Zep] parameter. The Zeppelins, if two appear, will be far enough apart that it will not matter if there are two of them. Give it a try and see what happens. Hope it works out for you. Enjoy! Quack74

my old idea of underground 3d base...silos for nuke ICBM`s

in the spirit of the other themed days, post your big ones, your jumbos, anything bigger than a fighter sized breadbox. Wednesdays only (sorry bout starting so late, was at work until now

This is just a fast demonstration of my idea of Hidden mountain hangars. there are three hangars and it will be connected by taxiway to the main runway. of cores, I can make the hangar in the mountain deeper and there will be a concrete tunnel to the exit with hard doors.

And if your own flight has a wingman assigned by the game engine, then go to the Roster menu where you can remove/add wingmen. Done by clicking on the respective line(s).

Sure, Why not ?

Interesting question. This is a start... https://www.vhpa.org/heliloss.pdf

Thank you @KJakker that seems pretty comprehensive. Problem is, sometimes in fighters I can't get enemy systems ID'd. See this F-35A screenshot after I installed your list: So what I have to do is check the radars of the enemy planes and ensure there is a RadarFamilyName= entry. If not, add one.

Sure but this game isn't Microsoft Flight Simulator...

I need to update my specs. The original Oculus Rift supported Windows 7 at release. But as they kept adding new features, Windows 7 did not support many of them. So Oculus dropped official support for Windows 7. In the mean time, I had been studying the contenders for the next generation of VR and came to realize that all future VR hardware was going to only be compatible with Windows 10. So, I bit the bullet and ran the free Windows 10 upgrade on my Windows 7 PC. I first imaged the Windows 7 installation from my 500 GB SSD to a new 1 TB SSD (the latest Samsung superfast M2 release). I then downloaded the still publicly available free Windows 10 upgrade setup from Microsoft to a USB key and ran it to upgrade to Windows 10. I am in the process of doing the same thing for my son so that he can use the old Oculus Rift with the latest features.

View File A-1H USAF -for SF2V A-1H SPADS , HOBO'S & ZORRO'S Also known as the A-1/AD-6 Skyraider For the stock 3rd Wire SF2:V A-1H Skyraider Continuing on from my previous uploads and reworks of USN and USMC Skyraiders, I present to you, for your delectation, and enjoyment the next in my rework of our beloved mud moving , snarling, piston powered , and rather handsome USAF Versions , I have made 3 Camouflage versions of the Aircraft from the 1st SOS, 22nd SOS, and 602st SOS of the 56th Special Operations Wing . 22 SOS is in the Zorro scheme of Camo over Nite, I am aware that not all the aircraft in the Squadron were painted this way, however rather than making a split squadron, the whole load of 'em are nite unders, if ya don't like it....well tough !! 1 SOS is done in the more usual "day" scheme, but is very dirty drab and scratched up, whilst 602's airframes are reasonably clean ( for a skyraider) And a slightly lighter colour tone with the more usual Light Grey unders. I have tried to get the numbers and nose art matched up on the different squadrons airframes, and yes I am aware that some of the pilots flew on different squadrons and took their aircraft's name with them, so some of the ones I have portrayed, may appear with different tail codes etc, depending on your sources. I have pretty much reworked the camo schemes from scratch, and I hope that these beautiful aircraft meet your approval . Everything you need is in the package decals, sounds, pilots , weapons etc. etc. etc. also the Data.ini for the aircraft.........Be advised, you MUST use this Data.ini with these aircraft, firstly because I have enabled the Chaff dispensers, and secondly, it kills off the clipping issue that started me off on this project in the first instance................YOU HAVE BEEN INFORMED AND WARNED!! That I think covers it, all the usual shout outs to Wrench and Nyghtfall for their Templates, which are instrumental in these 'ere skins And to anyone else who had anything to do with the original , aircraft, cockpits, and any other stuff that I have to be politically correct about . Please feel free to leave feedback ( it is much appreciated) also if you find any glitches that may have slipped by my (cough) quality control (cough) department, please give me a shout so I can attempt to fix it. Get out there, move some mud, scare the bejesus out of the baddies in Injun country, and above all ENJOY !!! Submitter trotski00 Submitted 05/21/2019 Category A-1  

View File A-1J USN SPADS !!! A-1J Skyraiders of the US Navy Hi Rez skins To be used on the stock 3W SF2 A-1J Skyraiders Continuing my series of Skyraider skins, these ones are for late mark Spads, of the US Navy. Included are :- VA-25 "Fist of the Fleet" 2 different skins from 2 consecutive cruises the first on USS Coral Sea, and the secon on USS Midway VA-115 "Arabs" again 2 different skins, both on the same tour of duty on USS Kittyhawk, the second set are a rework of Wrench's original experimental camo scheme, again mine is not 100% accurate, but I think it conveys the general idea. Only 2 or 3 Airframes were actually painted in this scheme, but it was just easier to do all of the squadron in it, the scheme was an experiment, which was found to be non beneficial, and in fact a bit of a problem for deck crews whilst operating at night or in bad weather, so it was dropped , however it does look pretty cool, the aircraft had only very basic markings and I have tried to replicate this with these skins, the other set of "ARABS" are in the standard Grey/White scheme. VA-145 "Swordsmen" aboard USS Intrepid VA-152 "Friendlies" on the USS Oriskany and they were called the Friendlies at this time NOT the Black Aces, or the Fighting Aces, the Name is correct for the Time period, the Squadron I believe are now known as the Mavericks !! As with all my previous uploads, everything you need is in the package ( obviously you need the aircraft in the first place hahahaha ) Again I will give the Gypsies warning about the Data.ini, make sure you DO use it , or you WILL have clipping issues !!! I will also say, as mentioned my my friend Mr Wrench, these are not 100% completely new , shiny, you cant bend it, built from the ground up , skins, but rather total reworks of skins that are already available ( in most cases) Hopefully I have improved on previous and older ones, and I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed doing them for you all !! All the usual shout outs ( you know who you are !! ) As always ENJOY !!!! Submitter trotski00 Submitted 05/22/2019 Category A-1
