Sneek peek at future helo releases
Capt.Scarlet replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Nice Lynx !!! Great job !! I would like to fly more helos in WOV, that was the helo war, but i am having problem flying them. They fly like airplanes with wheels , is there a mod to change the way they fly , make them take off vertically ? -
Yankee Air Pirate / Beta Testers Needed
Capt.Scarlet replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
I'll buy it , make pirate copies and sell it on e-bay for 10$ , how is that ?? You can't have rights on something you don't own ... Does Thirdwire owns the codes ??? Just an advise to modders who are giving 'permission' to use their files , get all in writing because some could take your author's rights away, stating they acquired your rights. I've seen it before and then it is a legal mess ... Not meaning it will happen here but just a precaution, i had FS95 and FS98 work stolen in the past and sold on the net in Europe, not fun at all when you spend so many hours of your time to create for the community and see some people wanting to cash in on your work. Thanks to Check-six for their MegaPack C6 that was made available for free to the community! Get it if you can, it worth it. http://www.checksix-fr.com/ -

You can get an evaluation copy of 3DMax from the software maker. Before investing over a $1000 it worth the try ... I have it and used it to do rendering of car models , but modeling 3D objects is something I haven't tried yet , but it seems very complex, I would be willing to try cockpit modeling but would need a coach to start the basic ... -

Mission building
Capt.Scarlet posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
How do you build a mission where you can choose where you take off from and which target you want to attack and the number of planes involved. I think it's impossible to choose your enemy defense airplanes. Let say i want to take off from Korat and bomb some bridges in Hanoi . In the game it won't let you choose your take off airport and won't let you choose your target ... -
Flying in the desert terrain
Capt.Scarlet posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Would be cool if the sim gave us the same feeling ... Can you fly like this ? Another kind of F-1. -
Weird behaviour
Capt.Scarlet posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I tried to make a recon flight to see Korat Airfield in the DRV terrain. I used create mission in the game menu and was put at Phu Bai for take-off. My mission objective was to recon in the Hanoi area , because i can't choose the target ... So after i took off i flew to a heading of 270* toward Korat but at halfway i noticed my plane was not moving forward anymore and was dragging sideways !!! Like the plane was attached with a big steel cable somewhere and i would just lay there unable to go forward even with the afterburners ... Is there a limit where you can go in a given mission ???? I want to see Korat from the air !!! -
Weird behaviour
Capt.Scarlet replied to Capt.Scarlet's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Korat is on the DRV terrain map , i should have been able to go there !!! Or is it the limit around the flight plan route ? -
USSR and Russia weapons and planes
Capt.Scarlet replied to StormKnight's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
The new threat is Terrorism , with all the hightech gadgets BenLaden still can't be found ! What is good if a satellitte can read a newspaper from above but stil can't find a person ? The aircraft from the fifties are still good to do the job today against that type of treat. Conventional wars are things of the past. Now it is how to find the enemy between your neighbors and don't get blown off by a kamikase. F-22's are not much useful for that !! -

IL2 Sounds

Is there any way to modify the engine sounds in Il2 and PF ?? I don't like all airplanes having the same engine sounds ... -
Mod effectivity
Capt.Scarlet posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Since mods for WOE , WOV, and SF are under the same forum topic , does it mean that it can be installed in any of these mods ? Can we install SF add-ons in WOV ?? -
ATTN: CF-5A - 433 or 434 SQN
Capt.Scarlet replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
You got it right . See the pic taken in the '80s at Toronto airshow. The skins could need some upgrades to add the formation light strips and other minors details , i will get on it soon !!! Note that a lot of CF-5's never worn their squadron colors .... like these 2 with the nose camera. :) Another thing to modify but i didnt succeed so far was to change the numbers on the tail. All CF-5 numbers start by 166 followed by 3 numbers in the 700 or 800 for CF-5D's. Like all CF-188 starts by 188XXX ..... -

I prefer this sim to Lomac anyway !!! -
ATTN: CF-5A - 433 or 434 SQN
Capt.Scarlet replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Fine looking airplanes !! The 433rd is the Porcupine Squadron and the 434th the Blue Nose Squadron (name of the boat). I have to get those skins. I worked on these babies at Canadair in the 80's and also at Bagotville and Cold Lake. One of my favorite fighter plane, small , fast and manoeuvrable. :) -

Would this be cool?
Capt.Scarlet replied to gerald14's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
It got no pilots !!! What's the point in a sim if you can't fly it or shoot it down !! If it is only like an object on the ground like mobil launchers , then yes it could be good for a target .. -

Is there any relation between SF, WOV, WOE toward LOCK-ON ?? I first thought that WOE cold war gone hot was an updated Lock-on ....
