Are these planes available?
BOOM replied to USAAF's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well since the B-1 and Tu-160 are virtually the same exept for a slight size difference (thanks the our slightly nosy neighbors from the east) if one comes out they'r all out. I personally would like to know if there is a super hornet in he works. The problem is that since the hornet and super hornet are just different enough to need seperate .LOD's and therefore new data, loadout, and whatever that third .INI is called which also means new skins and prabably new decals not to mention new hanger and loading screens. Anyone not busy? -
29 Bucks! wow I remember looking at them in staples about a year ago and they were over $100. That looks like some sort of crazy Ebay deal.

Nice pics. How many flash cards did you bring for your camera!

Just yesterday i was watching UFO files on the history channel and there were tons of videos of a thin metalic disc some with a semi distinguishable tailfin. Thanks to the Russians at that time they were very hesitant to tell us anything new. If it was still that way they would probably have us thinking that the F-14 was just put into production.

Ive noticed with the adition of the screen shot thread that americas army is not as unpopular as the forum suggests. I myself love the game and so does Fates apparently. I'd love to get more people to post on that forum than whoever posts about the updates.

Thanks and to the mystery hacker: what the hells ur problem

What military aircraft are you? F/A-22 Raptor You are an F/A-22. You are technologically inclined, and though you've never been tested in combat, your very name is feared. You like noise, but prefer not to pollute any more than you have to. And you can move with the best.

I went onto the 187}platoon clansite that i belong to and it apparently was hacked at about 19:10 yesterday according to the last updated server information. It was hecked by some turkish 'guy' [for lack of a better word] the URL is http://187platoon.clanservers.com/ but i highly recomend that you dont go to it. He left a replacement page that says "HACKED BY XORON TurkisHackeR for PALESTiNE - for iSLAM iSRAİL Allah belanızı versin.Mekanınız cehennem ola!" I understand you have had similar problems in the past.

Flak in WOV
BOOM replied to Lt. James Cater's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The only time ive ever gotten hit by it was while attacking a warehouse and i practivcally landed on the gun and even than it just put two or three holes in non important places. I think it is more effective if you just run into the thing and it takes out your wing! If you want to make it more powerfull than just increas the amount of explosive charge in the shell. If they are hitting a little high than decrease the velocity a very small amount and just keep doing it until you like were it is. -
Typhoon class distruction
BOOM posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I was browsing marcfighters and came across the typhoon class sub buy upon opening the data ini i was highly disappointed with the craft. It has two guns instead of the nukes! Is there any way to make a nuke or cruise missile to put in the forward hull section so it can go nukin' nam'? I'm not real shure what soviet nukes look like so i dont know what to use. -
Avoiding SAM's in WOV????
BOOM replied to F-4PhantomII's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
my version of WOV has SA-9s' all over on missions with later dates. They are completely heat seeking but only go for your tail. if you see one going for it than turn twards it and its as blind as a bat. As for flying low to avoid SA-2s', use your ground mapping radar to avoid clumps of AAA and when you have sam level set to heavy than always bring some and arm or two (unless the majority of sams are SA-9 in which case they are useless) -
I have tracked my 'dll' failure to the weapons folder. The problem is that when i use the weapon editor to modify any weapon even the slightest bit the thing crashes on my when i click on PLAY WOV and it says missile objec.dll failure or something to that effect. If i reinstall the pack it works perfectly again. (i checked the forum for other related topics and failed to find anything so please dont get mad at me if you know of another thread.

Can the Tornado pack be installed in SFG ?
BOOM replied to FrankTB's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Delete that pack and wait for the new one to come out in a few days. That one you have is full of bugs. Talk about bugs! when i put a gp on the outer wing pylons one gun shoots up and the other down! -

A comparison of F-15s
BOOM replied to streakeagle's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Ok, got myself some extra time and here is what i promised. I had some trouble matching the size and position because of the slightly different viewpoint but the flaws are pretty obvious: Here you can see the difference in canopy shape. The main difference here is at the back of the canopy were it tappers off. The WOE one has a pointed end while the drawing depicts a flatter end. This LOMAC version is probably the best at showing the shape of the air intakes. In both pictures they are slightly curved. Again on this one the caopy comes to a sharp point and the spacing of the canopy supports is different. This one prabably has the best matching canopy: dull in the front and back. As with both SFP1 versions the intakes are as rounded as bricks. You're free to make your own decisions about these and im open to 'constructive' criticism. have fun. -
A comparison of F-15s
BOOM replied to streakeagle's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Here's what i have; sorry for that sloppy cutting out, i was short on time First of all note that the canopy supports are slightly different in both models vs. the real one. Also note that every model has diferent little antennas (forget the official word for them ) and each one is a differen shape in a different place. Pay no attention ot the tail, the angle of the shots differed just enough to throw that off. I learned one thing makeing this though: there is a reason they call it 'low visibility gray,' it was really painfull to cut these out especially the LOMAC one! If i get extra time ill do one of the drawings too. -

weapon pack troubles

how far down the list did you have to go? -
weapon pack troubles
BOOM replied to Falcon161's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Ok, heres the deal: 1. go to microsoft.com and download direct x 9.0 2. missile .dll generally means that your weapons pack is having trouble. If you modified it in any way or are just paranoid than reinstall it. 3. are you shure you got all the patches including the 5th one that patches the 4th one that patches the 3rd one that patches the 2nd one that patches the 1st one that patches the game? 4. if all else fails than clean off the cd and reinstall it W/O wep pack to make shure it works before getting the weapons pack, if it wont start after you get it than you know were the problem is. -

AI missiles
BOOM replied to gillg's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I've given my guys missiles but on occaison they just shoot them like bombs over the target at a level angle so they always miss. Usualy i just give them cluster munitions cuz they are real good at using unguided bonbs. note the diagram: I know its not real great <^===> >>---> (plane) (launched missile) ___________[]___________________ (ground and target) -
