Hi guys, i have started a Sweden/Finland/Russia map, (hence the questions) Been ongoing for around 6-8 months. Just learning, so might take a while. U know life happens and stuff. Also working on campaign for map. Around '83 when Russia got sprung spying on the Swed's. Whiskey class sub ran aground near Sundsvall. Viggens and Drakens versus Floggers and Fishbeds. Wish me luck.

Hi guys, trying to enhance a tile.bmp from WoeE, but when i save it as a different file.bmp, in game it doesnt turn out, just a white tile. All i wanna do is make a 90 degree turn in a road on a field tile. Whot am i doing wrong? By the sounds of all the other threads it should be easy! I am using Photoshop 7.

Thanx for replying Brain, I have used these steps to place the tile in the editor, got a backup copy of my data.ini, then transfered the new tile ini stuff over. I can see the tile in TE, but in game i get the white tile of death!!!!!! I have checked the knowledge base and done a search so i don't have to write these noob posts. But i could find anything directly answering this. I have made a tile just by cutting out the road section from the germanyj-roadt1.bmp file, then pasting it into a field tile. I save this new tile as a bmp, photoshop asks me how to save (and this is where i think i am going wrong). I save the file as a bmp, windows, 8 bits per channel, RGB file. Then i do all the stuff you mentioned, and i still get white. very annoying but there must be an easy answer.

Hi guys, just investigating the possibilty of a new game at EB games, (non flight-sim related) and saw a game called, Jet Storm: Modern dogfights. Checked the web, no reviews or previews. Just cheats with no screenies. Anyone seen or heard of this sim? Just thought that it was cheap and might be worth a look.

Hi guys, just wanna know if anyone out there has a list of display and or static aircraft that are in the Australian international airshow at Avalon this year. Checked the main site................... nada on whats gonna be there. Anyone else know at all?

Hi guys, few questions re: Tiles and terrains, 1. Looking at terrains others have made and i was wondering what is the diff between tga and bmp files? 2. What purpose do they serve and where are they used? 3. When using TE2 to mod tiles and make tileset lists, I have used the WOEtileset, does the objects get placed automatically? 4. If i tried to place objects manually using the terrain dialog box, does that negate what is already placed? I have looked at gepards tutorial and done a search for some info but couldn't find anything specific. Any threads out there i may have missed? cheers guys.

Nice, thank you Baltika. Thats what i wanted to know. And thanks jtin for the swift reply. Been stuffing around with TE for a while and looking into some terrains. Very time consuming tho. Hats off to the boys who have already done it.

Hi guys, stuffing around with EECH2 and its Flight model is pretty complex for me at the moment, i would like to just fly some for practice, so i turned to WoE for some rotor action, (yeah i know the FM isn't great) but noticed there is not to many choppers available. Where can i get more from?

Ah the Firestorm, Had an SP1 for a while, the superbike that Colin Edwards rode in the 02-03 WSBK championship. Big V twin, nice sound.

Stormy, I stand corrected. Never been a "chopper" fan, always liked the lean mean speed machines such as your Ducati's, (jeez this years models look damn hot! So hot u could fry eggs on the tank. Pretty damn expensive but. I also have a soft spot for the green machine. The big K. Went to the oz round of the moto GP this year to watch Stoner win. Heh heh, Stoner.

Nice, thanx mate! will do.

Hi guys, anyone else got a file attachment in their "my controls", section called Japter.jpg? what is it? A Virus? Not convinced so anyone else got and opened it? It says its been downloaded 27 times.

Yes, thought as much. Why would someone even want to wipe someone elses work and not even see the outcome of their stupid lameass creation is beyond me. I have already lost my entire HD once before. And i was furious to think that some F*!@wit is just sitting there thinking, "gee wouldn't it be fun to just post this out to random people i don't know and have done nothing to offend me, and ruin whatever they have on their computers". Honestly guys, boredom, powertrip, sadism, what motivates this sort of thing?

Well guys, i have used bunny's weapons pack ever since i started playing. Just recently i had to wipe my hard drive and start again. So i still use bunny's pack but i am wondering if i can install and use TMF wpack over the top of bunny's?

I'll have to agree with the title, the new patch certainly has put a almost new feel to an already diverse sim. I will have to say......... It rocks!

Nice work MK2, cheers.

So long ago i can't even remember what the computer was, but it was called harrier jump jet. I had a green monitor and was hooked. Then i got falcon for the C-64, F-19 stealth fighter, good old Chuck's in there too. Birds of prey and god knows what else. Then i got an Amiga 1200 ant got Combat air Patrol, ATF and US navy fighters. Ahhhhh the memories....... good times.

Gepard, awesome work buddy. Just a friendly reminder to place the appropriate CAT file location in the Kashmir.ini file. e.g. CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat, to enable the terrain to work can'y wait for the next installment

Gepard, well done mate. I am currently working on a japanese terrain but cannot get all the 4 tiles to work in TE. I have managed to export the HFD of each ttile and cut and paste them to fit together but cannot import them without a single HFD file. Because if you check out the tile in the USGS site, it takes 4 tiles to make. At the moment i am unable to link these 4 HFD's together. I look forward to your next lesson. Cheers

WOW!! Just gotta say that. I haven't been playing any 3rd wire gear for a while, but my intrest has peaked. I have popped in every once in a while to see what's happening, but not really paying attention. No wonder i didn't do well in school. Noticed the new subcategories in the various folders and gotta say it certainly makes navigating the site easier. And look at all these latest generation fighters coming out! The F-22, WOW! the Typhoon, the JA-39, the F-35, the J-10! Soon we will have enough fighters to make a Campaign set in the near future. Just gotta say to everyone who has made this possible, WELL DONE!!! Now all i need to do is upgrade my slow arse computer to be able to play WoE without getting sore wrists from over correcting my plane due to the jerkiness of my frame rate. Jerkiness?

OK, I love the range that the Third wire series brings, but i just wish that the AI was a llittle smarter. You basically know what to do to get a mission done and there is little element of suprise. Falcon 4 Has this but it's only available with the one plane. Albeit diferent variants. If anyone knows of a sim like Falcon 4 but you can fly an F-4 or an A-4, please lemme know. I think though WoE is the one. PS, with a little more AI.

Set in Korea (using the new korea tileset, not Edwards phototerrain) in 1968 after the USS Pueblo was captured off the North Korean coast. It's a "what if" scenario, if the US was to react with force that is. I have tried to use units that were actually there and added some extra. Fly for the USAF, USN, USMC, ROKAF, JASDF or RAAF. Enjoy guys and cheers. Click here to download this file

I just noticed the pilots of the mig-21 family sit behind the cockpit seat and not in it like everything else. Looks weird, does anyone know how to fix this? Cheers guys.

Love your work kukulino, thanx mate.
