It looks good to me and i have been into Star Trek since i was a little kid. I see a few things i don't really like, The new Enterprise design looks much more modern than Kirks and it being built planetside instead of in a drydock in space, but as long as the story is good i'll overlook those things and support the new franchise. Kirks timeline has always been my favorite, so this could be the start of a very good series of movies IMO.

Do you fly for your own nation?
WarlordATF replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
Its strange, but now that you mention it, I fly mostly for Germany up until the cold war era. WWI Fokker and Albatros fighters,WWII Bf-109s and Fw190s have always been my choices going all the way back to Air Warrior on AOL. Once we get past the second world war i tend to fly mostly American aircraft, but even some of those are based on German designs, i guess there is something about German craftmanship that appeals to me. -

Ouestion about default paint on Albatros D.III
WarlordATF replied to WarlordATF's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
I Gave that a try but i can't figure out where the prop spinner is mapped in the texture. It became silver/gray again and i tried replacing those colored areas, but i think it might be mapped as part of the metal that goes under the guns, if thats the case then it would look bad. I have not given up, i think your actually right, but i'm gonna live with the second design and actually get some flight time in. If anyone can point out where in the texture the spinner is mapped i can finish it pretty quickly. EDIT: Fixed the Problem with the Spinner and did a few other skins. Skinpack has been submitted and is awaiting approval! -
Ouestion about default paint on Albatros D.III
WarlordATF replied to WarlordATF's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
Good Point, Your Probably right. Its kinda funny, considering how many Aces used this plane there are hardly any good pictures of it. I Honestly still don't know if Lothar's tail was really yellow or not on the D.III. I think it was, but i have seen others argue that is wasn't, it seems alot about the D.III is open to speculation. Edit: I think you are right, I tweaked it a little and it looks better to me, what do you think? -
Ouestion about default paint on Albatros D.III
WarlordATF replied to WarlordATF's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
I'm pretty sure that uploading modified skins is fine as long as you don't include the LODs, If i am wrong i ask that one of our Moderators let us know. Thanks again guys, i knew about Allmenroeder, but i thought he was more the exception than the rule. I didn't know about Simon though, so i guess i still need to do more homework. It just seemed to me that if all of Jasta 11 painted the entire fuselage red there would be a ton of false reports of killing MvR when in fact it was just a member of the squadron. i still can't find a D.III Profile but the B/W Pictures i have seen looked like it was the red nose/tail paintjob, If Heck can put together an accurate skin i'd be greatful, i could try but i still have not mastered using layers so the nose and tail would be all red and the details would be lost. EDIT: Doh, I can be a bit dense sometimes, At first I didn't catch the cut and paste part that Heck was saying. Is this more accurate? The white band is part of the personal section of the decal.ini. -
Yes, It should work fine with your skins. All you need to do is tell which Ace gets what texture. BTW Thanks Again for all those great skins! Also the Known Ace number is per squadron, not per nation. So Each Squadron can have KnownAce01,KnownAce02 ect.
-
I have not noticed any extra data like that, but when an ACE shows up on the Roster Screen all there skills are set at 100. If i'm wrong i'm sure someone will correct me, but i don't think you can make one ace better than another in terms of skills. I looked because i wanted to make Lothar more aggressive than Manfred. From what i've read, Manfred would avoid combat until getting into a superior position and Lothar would just dive into a fight and start shooting, This led Manfred to dub his brother "The Butcher".

Its pretty easy to add aces to a campaign. You can also use the AllowRandomAceCreation=TRUE along with Known Aces and the game will generate new aces as time passes. For MvR this is the line i'm using in my Campaign, I did not give him his total kill tally because i wanted to leave some room for the kills he got during the campaign. KnownAce[01].LastName=von Richthofen KnownAce[01].FirstName=Manfred KnownAce[01].RankID=5 KnownAce[01].NumMissions=129 KnownAce[01].AirKills=75 KnownAce[01].AircraftNumber=28 KnownAce[01].Texture=VR <---Make sure that this matches the Texture you want the Ace to use!

The Official Sept/Oct Patch Thread
WarlordATF replied to Murphy'S's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
What weapons editor version are you using? Have you checked the Aircrafts [Weapons Stations] section to determine it has the correct attachment type? Have you opened the WeaponsData.ini with notepad and checked that the data is correct and numbered right? Otherwise start with a clean install and confirm that all files are deleted before the re-install, then patch up and try again. -
Wow, Amazing Job when you think about how hard that would actually be.

WarlordATF replied to Brain32's topic in Military and General Aviation
Understood, If you check my Link its just a TV show, nothing that should cause anyone any problems. I fully understand what your saying and would never do anything to cause any of our member undue grief. (due grief, thats another story ) -

I found this much more interesting... -
The first 3 or 4 files on this page are what i believe you are looking for, Make sure you get the set you need (Expansion Pack or Not) and i'm not sure if these need updated to work with the October patch or not... http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...amp;showcat=213

The Official Sept/Oct Patch Thread
WarlordATF replied to Murphy'S's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I'm one of the last people to tell someone to read the KB or the Manual, But did you even read this thread before you posted? Its been covered many many times, you need the latest version of the weapons editor and if your installing Bunyaps weapons pack you need to install it to a temp directory and move the files over manually to avoid overwriting the Data.ini files for some of the aircraft. You are better off using the MF Weapons packs, far less work involved. -

WarlordATF replied to Brain32's topic in Military and General Aviation
Boy those videos got taken down fast, i watched them about an hour ago and now they are gone. Not so sure i would believe to much from them, anyone can put on a flightsuit and film it, there was really nothing to support anything that was said. -

What do you fly?
WarlordATF replied to scouserlad13's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
This is a tough one, I fly alot of planes but i would say the top 3 would have to be... F-16C Block 30, between Falcon 4 and WOE i have enough hours in this plane to retire. F-4C, First USAF Phantom, I love this bird. F-35A, I waited for this one a long time, The F-22A and F-35A are very close to being tied for the Number 3 on my list. Like i said i fly alot of the planes we have, It was very hard to choose just 3! -
