On this image is screenshot from Hex Editor, and its only sample values. And its very easy for single material models, such as weapons or vehicles. If you want to change specular level ONLY of aircraft nose it will be difficult, I suppose. The most important - look the bitmap name in ASCI, and find range to highlighted cells - there is specular/gloss setting.

I have discovered how to change SPECULAR and GLOSSINES level of LOD models for Thirdwire. If you wanna to make any mat model to be glossines and more stylish, and you have ONLY a *.lod output file, it is very easy way to do it ! Use any Hex editor - for example Hackman ( http://www.technologismiki.com/prod.php?id=31 ) and edit a lod file with this app. And follow : switch display mode to Hex&ASCI, and find a ASCI 'bmp' word, and it will be a material name shown on results. Next you must change all values as on the sample image attached below. If anyone wants to have more specular settings, post me at this forum message. View the image attached !

Oh YES !!! I found it, im so dumb !!! THANKS !

I can`t find in any .INI file a FlareEffect and ChaffEffect , I dont like a black flare smoke like pitch-black. In COUNTERMEASUREOBJECT.INI file are : [FlareData] EffectName=FlareEffect ble ble ble ... BUT WHERE IS THIS EFFECT DATA ? In particlesystem.ini does not exist. In Missileobject, and aircraftobject also. Anybody knows ?????????

Before Ive installed pack service and patch. AFTER the installation it is visible not only on aircraft textures but on heavy reflected weapons skins also. Im still looking in video-driver settings , there are many options, but nothing remove this awful blue coloures on reflections.

Problem : since Ive applied SP1 service pack 4 and patch v 08.30.06 some unknown issues are visible on aircraft textures which should be SILVER, gray, and there is no blue color on textures bitmaps. The blue reflect is visible ONLY if aircraft ini sets applies the reflections i.e : Name=Soviet Silver Nation=Soviet Specular=0.600 Glossiness=0.50 Reflection=0.7 - this value generate this error on textures , look the screenshots. I have Radeon2550 card with directX 9.0c , and this error was NOT visible before ! Anybody knows how to eliminate this issue ?

Sorry, the name of the service pack is : Strike Fighters: Project 1 Service Pack 4 (v05.15.06) applid. Excuse me this mistake. But all I said about visible distances is true, Ive checked it again, it works.

Ive discovered very important difference between Stike Fighters Service Pack 1 and Service Pack 5, maybe 4 also. All ground objects has line MaxVisibleDistance= in objectname_data.ini file. And now, with patch 5, its no OLNY for AI controlled vehicles value and info, but for player aircraft too ! Ive noticed, that I cannot find ground targets in my created missions, so - when I saw an SA-13 SAM launcher it was too late... And - I changed the value from MaxVisibleDistance=5000 to 25000 and the target is visible from very long distance ( in game HUD information ). Its no matter - Visual targeting easy or normal mode - any ground target will be NOT visible and noticed BELOW his own visible value. For example - T-55 tank visible from 5000 will highlighted as target at 5.3 NM , and mobile sam launcher with max visible distance 25000 will be noticed at 26 NM.

In section " WoE/WoV/Project-1 Knowledge Base by USAFMTL / Basic INI Editing: [FlightControl] " written by USAFMTL there are some NOT TRUE informations. ( Sexcuse me my poor english ) - I will try to explain what is wrong he wrote : 1. He said : CornerSpeed= This is the speed at which the aircraft can achive its smallest turn radius. This data is often hard to find for some reason so you may ahve to make an educated guess. Should generally be around or below the cruise speed Not all true - Corner Speed is the speed of aircraft when its going to attack ground targets ! If the CornerSpeed is to large the AI controlled aircraft will not fire LAU rockets or firing guns, becouse he has not time to get aim OK. The best value for small aircraft is about 135 - to 145 . The smallest turn radius is determined by values of control surfaces and max G limit. 2. PitchDamper= RollDamper= YawDamper= (...) These three values are the only ones in this section that appear to affect the player controlled aircraft. Not true - all these parameters are used by AI controlled aircraft, for example - Pitch damper if to small then aircraft will swing and sometimes makes unable to set aim offset correctly. 3. GunBoresightAngle= RocketBoresightAngle= These settings tell the AI what angle off the centerline must be used when firing rockets and guns. If the AI consistently under or over-shoots with rockets and guns, adjust these angles NOT TRUE ! Boresight Angle is the angle of weapon is firing from aircraft to ground. And with player controlled aircraft it works also, for example - if your non-guided rocket hits ground to fast, and to low with regard to gunsight try to set any value more than zero : RocketBoresightAngle=0.5 Try type RocketBoresightAngle=45 and look what will hapen when rocket is firing. All AI controlled aircraft fires all rockets and guns around =0 angle.
