Looking for VAC SF Profile
gillg replied to Geary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Hi Guys. I have used shoot for my setup and find that if a command is misunderstood once, then it gafs up the rest of commands. I would like to try VAC. Is there anywhere to DL profile? -
Hi Guys, Recently had a GFX card crash and basically ended up having to reinstall windows. But I have everything backed up, (lessons learnt) and I was wondering what order do I need to install the SF2 series and the patches to get to may 2013. Do I need to install previous patches or can I go straight to May 2013? Had a look at the knowledge base but could only find something from 2010. Cheers

Fresh install
gillg replied to gillg's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Thanks guys, I saved all the DL games exe files onto my HD, I have not got my pc back yet. I have the SF2 installer program, does this automatically do it for you? Cheers -
May Patch?
gillg replied to usafphantom2's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
Has anyone else noticed an increase in the frame rate? Or am I just dreaming................oh look at the flying pigs.............that was me dreaming. Seriously though I do believe I have set up some higher graphics and got better frame rates. Even when I press next event, there is not the 2-3 second lag anymore. -

I have a small rectangular hole in the left side console of the MF F-14 tomcat, when I use my Track IR to look in the bottom left of the cockpit. You can see it next to the plane info Any body else got anf fixed this?? Cheers -
Holy Cockpit Batman!
gillg replied to gillg's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
hi guys, I just changed this value, MinPitchFront=-65 I changed it to -55 and I can no longer see the hole. As far as I am concerned, it doesn't affect the cockpit view at all. Thanks guys, and Wrench. -
Holy Cockpit Batman!
gillg replied to gillg's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Thanks guys, I think I might modify the cockpit ini. Easiest and most practical way. As soon as I find the values, i'll post 'em. Cheers -
Jono, I feel for you mate. This has happened to me once and I lost a hell of a lot of SF and WoE stuff. THIS SUCKS!!. Good luck with rebuilding mate.

Things that annoy me greatly....
gillg replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yeah, and there is the crux of the problem right there I guess. like I said I still have the old favourites if this begins to, as the post began, annoy me greatly. cheers -

Hi Guys, I am not much of a modder, i just like playing the game and although I have found the locking of files concerning for the modders, (and the moderate visual quality of the NA terrain) I personally are not too concerned. The average stock NA terrain was fixed for me by the modded NA terrain by gerwin, (and that is where the concern for modders lies) the addition of a naval task force was a massive plus for me as well and I can still play all the old faves and fly just about any aircraft I want! Do you know what has put me off this game a bit, like Brain said, the constant back and forth and negativity going around. I agree that locking the files is going to piss people off, but just imagine if those files were locked from the start. Complacency is the begining of ignorance. Everyone gets used to seeing it so we assume it will always be there. -

Another Sweden Terrain!!!! It does venture further South into what is now Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania. If you increase the boundary, you can get the North of Poland as well and maybe a little bit of Norway. I would like to do better planning maps and more road bases for Sweden. But I realise that it has taken me this long to get this far and life is not slowing down so I release it to the masses to scrutinize. That and JonathanRL would like to stuff around with it. So this ones for you Jono!! Good luck. Installation: Unzip the "Sweden" to a temp folder, or your desktop or somewhere easy to find. Then copy/paste, move the Sweden terrain folder into your Terrains folder in whichever game install you're installing it to!. Go to the Sweden.in file and change the cat to the appropriate cat file. Go fly! Decals included: Viggen: F6 F7 F13 F15 F17 J-35F: F1 F10 F16 There is a readme if you really do read them.

CombatAce - Wouldn't be here otherwise, word!! All you guys out there as well!!!! If I did miss anyone, it is not intentional Cheers PS. I made a few tiles for target specific areas, nothing to flash but I didn't put this info in the readme. -
Parked aircraft gone?
gillg posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
Hi guys, been meaning to ask this for weeks but have been busy. I am sure that i have seen this here somewhere but i have been searching for 20 minutes and haven't found it. Has someone else had the parked aircraft no longer appear in campaigns after the april patch?? Is it fixable?? Cheers -

Sorry, I guess I should have mentioned that this is happening in SF2 NA in case it wasn't apparent. They work in the single missions. Cheers -
Back Up Your Stuff!
gillg replied to Caesar's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I feel for ya bro.....I suggest everyone does what he says. I remember when I was creating my sweden terrain and had a HD crash. 18 months of work gone. I thought it cant happen to me, (sounds like an advert for drink driving) well it did. Here is another poor guy who has sat at their computer after the HD crashed just staring at a screen shaking their head in disbelief, after totally loosing it and swearing their head off. Since this happened to me I have a backup HD that I put all my downloads on and important folders. PLUS an external HD with the exact copies. I HAVE LEARNT!!!!!! Cheers -
Voice Command Software

Hi G, yeah go for shoot. It is awesome and is relatively easy to modify the file with the shoot profile editor. I use it for all my flight sims and have had no probs with track IR5. Bit of a hassle to get it to work with windows 7, but you just need to install .NET 1.1 and thats how i got it to work. Grumpy old gamer website has the actual program from memory. good luck and good hunting. Cheers -

Info Displat text
gillg posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Hi Guys, Just want to know if it is possible to change the size of the text of the messages that pop up in normal HUD mode. I like flying with Hard settings but in some planes it is impossible to tell what weapon you have just changed to, unless you change the HUD detail level. Any ideas? Cheers -
