Exp3 News! (no, not really)
Carlos_Tex replied to FastCargo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I find that hard to believe Stary. Has anyone been able to decompile the code? Or are we talking about pure blind HEX editing (maybe not that blind)? -

TK is pretty much immune to any suggestion that involves more investment in his PC games. I can understand his view, he doesn't want to take any risks. Even collaborating with the community as i suggested is more loss than gain for him. He just doesn't want any help from anyone outside and do things his own way. I'm not criticizing him, it's just his option. All we can do is wait his mobile business is a huge success and that we can have something more on the PC side. -

Yes JM the avionics updates (basically all engine enhancements) are the most important reason why i would like to see more TW full titles even if those already have their MOD counterpart. Justice being made, ODS is nothing less than awesome. I hope the same for a possible Iran-Iraq one! :) -

If ThirdWire would do a Iran-Iraq full title they could make it so that the same terrain could be used for a Desert Storm game. Even though Desert Storm would be uber expensive, it would also be the title with the most selling potential released by ThirdWire. But i also have to agree, Korea is a nice scenario too. Even though planes are somewhat less expensive, naval units and stuff make it an also rather expensive possibility. -

The Iran-Iraq scenario is one of my favorites. Not only it is another Tomcat title on cover, which sells, it provides 2 different nations from what we are accustomed to. The planeset is also very interesting. But this one would require in my opinion at least one flyable MiG. It is also true that F-1C is different from F-1EQ. Iran: F-14A (flyable) F-4E (flyable) F-5A/E (AI only) P-3C (AI only) C-130 (AI only) Iraq: MiG-21 (Flyable, this or -23) MiG-23 (Flyable, this or -21) MiG-25 (AI only) Mirage F-1EQ (Flyable) Super Entendard (AI only) Su-17/20/22 (AI only) Su-24 (AI only) Su-25 (AI only) Tu-16 (AI only) Tu-22 (AI only) I can already imagine TK saying that this would be too expensive project, or that the scenario does not have enough selling potential. Even though with the above planeset there would be only a couple of new flyable and quite a few new AI aircraft. Minus MiG-25 if it comes with Exp. Pack 3. -
dual core or quad core!
Carlos_Tex replied to irati's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yes it is a few months old. It doesn't really matter for me as benchmarking in most review sites is just pure benchmarketing. -
It's a TV movie but i liked A Bright Shining Lie... Flight of the Intruder, We Were Soldiers are my favorites.

I'd put my bet on flyable Super Mystére B.2 there as well. -
I wish there was such a project with 50's to 1980's jets. That could be pretty much Strike Fighters 2 with Multiplayer.... I'd better just shut up....

But don't tell TK as he will say that list is very hard to code and costs heaps of money. And if you do by mistake, then don't tell Stary you have told TK about the list... And if you do tell Stary you just have to hope TK doesn't answer... -
[WIP] MiG-25PD cockpit

Thanks for the heads up Centurion!!! -
Anyone know of a graphic card for this pc?
Carlos_Tex replied to dsawan's topic in Digital Combat Simulator Series General Discussion
From what i could understand, you have one PCI Express x16 slot there. It says "(none available)" so i guess this means the GeForce 8300GS card is installed there. If you are on a tight budget i guess Cape Verde Radeons should be ideal to you. Maybe a 7770 or a 7750. Depends on how much you have to spend. If you can give more details on the range of how much you wanna spend we can help you better. This because your system is already pretty limited, that and also being a "production line" PC, as i like to call it, adds a few more upgrade difficulties. Let's face it, Dell, HP etc... don't assembly their desktop machines in order to be upgradable. I actually loathe the damn things. -
[WIP] MiG-25PD cockpit
Carlos_Tex replied to Centurion-1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Hi Centurion, one question here. I don't know how the progress of the cockpit is going opposed to the problems you have with the actual plane model. So will you consider maybe releasing the cockpit until you have all things sorted out? Because then we could use it with the MiG-25 that comes with Nato Fighters -
TMF F-14 Tomcat Superpack
Carlos_Tex replied to Spectre8750's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Hi Spectre. From what i understand by reading a few threads around what i want to do isn't possible. I thought that with just some .ini tweaking i could add the RWR and digital compass to the Thirdwire cockpit HSD. But i deeply appreciate granted permission! Thanks! -
TMF F-14 Tomcat Superpack
Carlos_Tex replied to Spectre8750's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Thanks Spectre and everyone at the TMF. One question: I know you guys are using this cockpit as a stand-in for the F-14D's while the new one isn't ready, but what about the A cockpit? Have you guys plans for it or you want to keep using the current F-14A+ (B) for the A models? -
TMF F-14 Tomcat Superpack
Carlos_Tex replied to Spectre8750's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Hi Spectre. Awesome work with the superpack. I've been trying to initiate myself in .ini editing and i would like to add the additional HSD modes (NAV and RWR) to the ThirdWire Tomcats using a similar method to select in between them (ripple quantity key or interval), and since i want to release the mod when it's done for anyone interested. Can i have permission to use some of your work (HSD NAV) for the purpose of giving the TW Tomcat the same capability? When people asked for it TK answered that SF2 is just a game and there is no need for NAV modes... Thanks -

Korean War
Carlos_Tex posted a topic in IL-2 Series / Pacific Fighters / Cliffs of Dover: General Discussion
I was wondering if there is a korean war mod available for IL-2. I already saw impreesive vidoes on youtube with f9f panthers mig-15s and f-86s. I know that there is a KTO map but is there an aircraft pack for a korean war scenario? And campaigns?
