JASDF C-130H
snapper 21 replied to snapper 21's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Still working on the camo, looking at pics on the internet can't decide if wing colour or fuselage colour green is more realistic. Haven't tried painting insignia on skin yet. -

Can I ask what the advantage is, of having the insignias on the texture? Still trying to get rid of the borders on the green, but also have been trying to re-create the blue. Not sure if its correct. -

After looking through a lot of pics on Airlines.net and if wiki is right on there only being 15 delivered.

Hi All I want to change the UK map to use for single missions now and maybe a campaign later. The missions I want to fly are intercepting Russian raids on air bases in Scotland that come from off map bases in Norway. I think I have enough ocean up there to play with. So for starters I have changed all target areas on the map to friendly. And will attempt to add the off map russian air fields later. I will also need to change the allowed missions for UK use and the nations file. But my question is, how do I limit the bases I can take off from on the map. I don't want to take off from Brize Norton to intercept a raid off Scotland. Can I set the airfields I dont want to use as Neutral? Or do I need to delete the whole target or just the number of sqaudrons that fly from there? Thanks for your help Snapper 21

Hi All Sorry I feel the need to rant. I bought SF2 NA even though I only have windows xp, luckily I can get all the bits in a merged install and there is Gerwins lovely Iceland map to use if I want. But I just can't bring myself to play it. Its the story line, its just so crap, it puts me off playing the game. In TKs world its possible for the Russians to land on half of Iceland while there is a fully functional USAF base at Keflavick with no landing ships (in game), and with enough stores and equipment to run a couple of airfields and a full army. Both sides fly from pristine airfields, never touched by war, somebody was not doing there job! What were the Yanks doing while the Russians landed? Watching the Superbowl? I love the new ships, naval formations, cruise missiles and the rest. But I can only hope there will be somewhere else to use them soon, because I don't want to fly over Iceland I feel better now. Thanks Snapper 21

SF2 NA
snapper 21 replied to snapper 21's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
True, the whole island or nothing is probably wrong. But I don't see both sides having the use of prepared airfields. For Russians to have them and have operational squadrons flying from them I think Keflavik would have to be seriously out of action, meaning NATO would have to rely on Harriers and Carrier aircraft -
SF2 NA
snapper 21 replied to snapper 21's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Jonathan, I accept your rant about the tilte, to many SF2 NA around, and also the unashamed plug for your own campaign! Yes I have read RSR, and Arctic Victory is quite believable. If TKs game had started with either NATO defending or trying to re-take Iceland, that would have been better. I just don't see how his scenario could ever of happened. As for WOE, while I never live long enough to see what happens to airbases, I like it because you seem to be there from day one. -
Samurai's Shipyard
snapper 21 replied to WhiteBoySamurai's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Hi WhiteBoySamurai As always, cracking looking ships. If you have a plan to make more PLAN, then surely the Sovremenny class and its variants which is winning the poll at the moment would fit the bill. Cheers Snapper 21 -

Samurai's Shipyard
snapper 21 replied to WhiteBoySamurai's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I voted for everything I could, simply because any of it would be good. But I guess the Sovremenny, Kidd or any of the JMSDF ships would be most interesting. -
DDG-173 Kongo class Aegis destroyer
snapper 21 replied to WhiteBoySamurai's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Hi WhiteBoySamurai About that alternative data.in. Yes some of the visual vertical launch is lost, but the ship is just an awesome weapon. I had a simple test mission, two flights of Su-24 attacking one Kongou, my plane flies on auto pilot all the way. With the normal data file which uses the weapon system, I got close enough for my second flight to attack with dumb bombs and get one hit. All planes returning to base. With the data file using the gunner system all four planes shot down before 8 miles to target. For me the gunner system is the way to go, hope you do the type 23 as well. A big thank you for bringing us these brilliant ships. Cheers Snapper 21 -

Not trying to be difficult, but can I say airwarfare Kirov? If not, will it be possible to copy info from this version to make it so? Cheers Snapper 21 -
Kirov class battlecruiser
snapper 21 replied to WhiteBoySamurai's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Hi WhiteBoySamurai Your Kirov looks awesome, I am looking forward to the challenge. I don' t think just turning up with a couple of misiles on a plane will work against this ship. I reckon a full strike package with jamming support will be needed! Cheers Snapper 21 -
TK set his E-2C to AircraftCapability=DAY_ONLY?? Is it a mistake, because surely the E-2 is up night or day, or is it a game thing? Cheers Snapper 21

Modern Royal Navy ship update pack
snapper 21 replied to WhiteBoySamurai's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Hi WhiteBoySamurai The Type 23 guns don't seem to be working. The main gun wont engage, and the side guns are not moving. I looked in the data ini and there looks like there are two guns number 1 and 1 number 2 but no number 3. Cheers Snapper 21 -
