Nope all regular there, have tried 4 times renaming the thirdwire folder to force a new one created, just in case, also rebooted. Perplexed. -

No I fully accept pilot error on the install but at this stage I have gone full circle and installed everything again from scratch but still no response from the settings. This could not be because of the mission download, It's long gone now. [Pilot] LastName=Pilot FirstName=Ace Callsign=Phantom Service=USAF [Options] Section=0 [GameplayOptions] MissionStart=2 CockpitView=1 DisplayUnit=1 EnemySkill=2 Simulation=3 FlightModel=2 WeaponEffectiveness=1 Avionics=1 Targeting=0 HUDDisplay=2 Landing=2 Collision=2 Blackout=0 AmmoUsage=1 FuelUsage=2 I mean look this should work, right? -

	Hi Guys, I seem to be in trouble more often than not. This time I installed the Classified secret mission and screwed up the game. So I thought I would delete the whole mod folder and that would be that, but now no matter what I do I always end up in the air with default settings, don't matter what I set them to it goes the same way.

				Order of install?
fireengineer replied to fireengineer's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Thanks all, sorted now. Just got to deal with the crash to windows now, seems to happen when close to target? - 
	Hi Guys something really strange has started to happen when I run any of the SF2 programs. Even at the first menu screen my CPU usage soars to 30% and this is with a 3GHz quad core!!! The mouse becomes laggy and if I get in game, to the sim proper, the control becomes laggy but the flow of the sim as a whole does not. Then it will crash the PC, hang up. I have two installs on two different HD's, they are both doing this, one is modded with the vietnam exp pavk but the other is clean and original. Any ideas?

	Had a total nightmare mission in an F4 on the Desert terrain. Managed to get the tail fin shot off over target, fought on downed some enemy then flew back manually in real time nursing the plane back to base. It took ages and with force feedback I had an aching arm to boot. BUT, whenever the mission report came up apparently I died over the target!? Never made it back!? Gutted.

	Just as a side note it often baffled me as to why fighters had all those pylons, but could only carry air to air stores on half of them, especially in the Vietnam War. The stories from the pilots always refer to 'running out of missiles' during combat without guns, yet they had empty hard points all over the place. As a result of this personal annoyance I invariably change pylons on models here to carry air to air.
