About Mr_Tayto

  1. I LOVE these alt-history Dhimar/Paran posts, please keep them coming. I'd love a mod that allowed me to play as Dhimar (or Paran) through the ages. The base game does a great job but I wish there was more.
  2. I'm sure I had a book in the 90's which had colour plates of Tomcats "dressed" up in this way. I recognise the three bottom schemes in @RavenClaw's post.

  3. VKB Throttle Issues

    Have you asked this question on the TW or Devin Horner discord recently? Because if not, you're like the third person in a week to ask about the same thing The answer is: don't try to bind HOTAS buttons to the controls in-game. Instead, use the HOTAS profile software to bind the buttons to the keymap! This game is older than me teenage son, therefore the Keymap is king. Bind buttons to keys, not functions to buttons!
  4. @Svetlin have you tried actually landing on the deck? Also I wonder if it's worth checking the US naval aircraft for their "basesize" settings; it could be that the value relates to runway length for unassisted takeoffs, or even for runway surface (I noticed earlier this week some aircraft taking off from rough fields in game, which I didn't even know existed)?

  5. Scooters

    Mr_Tayto replied to Nyghtfall's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Screen Shots

    Proud of myself - best carrier landing I've ever done. I just followed CASE 1 to the letter (and number!)
  6. I do love me some aggressors. Just the best liveries. Nearly came to grief heading home from a strike; a big raid was on my reciprocal bearing, same altitude. I saw them last second!
  7. Yeah I have that in a seperate folder from earlier. That's been the issue. I forgot that they sailed with the A-4E in '66 (but weirdly with the A-4C_65 in '70?) Problem solved. I have the wrong aircraft selected for the squadron and time period, so it seems there's a "standard" early A-4 with the right colours but none of the decals. Sorry for any timed wasted all!
  8. I know, which is why i'm so confused I can't find it! No decals.ini I have done this before ;)
  9. I can't find any of these files; I'm guessing they're something I need to unpack via that Mues program - honestly I've never worked out how to use it and it terrifies me to try to "pick it up as I go along", in case I break something I can't fix!
  10. Not yet, will give it ago later when I can play again.
  11. Having reinstalled and had another go, it's no different. But I did wonder if the fact I'm playing it on Burning Sands (1959) might be the issue. It's entirely possible that the mod only works for actual Vietnam scooters (given that's its name) Anyway, when I've done this campaign I'll go to Vietnam
  12. Thanks, I'll have a look. Hmmm. Given the sheer size of the mod, I'm wondering if I downloaded and unpacked, but never actually installed it. Looking through the mod folder that was installed already, there's nothing like the number of folders in there as the mod folder. I'll give it a go.
  13. Goddamn! That's perfect. This is what mine looks like below. What have I done wrong? (And how should I fix it?)
  14. Question mark on the title because I am flying a VA-12 Skyhawk at the moment and noticed the Ubangis logo on the fuselage is missing. I just wondered if this is on purpose or for some other reason. Everything else is perfect! I would have tagged the creator but I can't remember who it was (and couldn't find their name in the readme). EDIT: I see now it's @Nyghtfall
  15. On that note I'm sure I read somewhere that the Shrike "growled" like a sidewinder when it had a target, but it doesn't in game. Can anyone confirm this? @Eagle114th I'm delighted you got this sorted out
