Excellent and outstanding work as always Ludo. You are a great artist when it comes to creating Mirage F-1 mods. Of course, I do love the Mirage F-1, even do my favorite has always been the bare metal Mirage IIIC from the '60s I just call her the Brigitte Bardot of the Mirage family... Photo shows Mordechai Hod – Israeli General, himself also being a Pilot seen here leaving the cockpit of a Mirage IIIC in the Sinai during 1968 Credits: Moshe Marlin Levin /Meitar Collection / National Library of Israel / The Pritzker Family National Photography Collection / Israel State Archives / CC BY 4.0

Thanks great I really liked that Kfir C.7 & Kfir C.7 (89) v0.9 mode a lot. But I think there are two errors please see the enclosed PrintScreen Errors are marked. First one: I have a second pilot sitting on the middle tank. Second one: The helmet of the Pilot is touching the top of the canopy glass. Below my Data.ini Crew section, I haven't changed anything. Thanks for any help on that. // Crew --------------------------------------------------------- [Pilot] SystemType=PILOT_COCKPIT PilotModelName=IAF_F16 //PilotModelName=f-16801 //PilotModelName=MODusaf SetCockpitPosition=TRUE Position=0.00,4.23,0.53 //SeatModelName=MK10L SeatModelName=Mk10A SeatPosition=0.00,4.21,0.42 MinExtentPosition=-0.37, 3.90,-0.47 MaxExtentPosition= 0.37, 4.94, 0.68 CanopyNodeName=canopy_frame_rear CanopyAnimationID=7 [Canopy] SystemType=ANIMATION InputName=ANIMATION_1 DeploymentMethod=MANUAL MaxDeploySpeed=40 AnimationTime=6.0 AnimationID=7 [refuelProbe] SystemType=PILOT_COCKPIT PilotModelName=10KFIR Position=0.0,0.0,0.0 CanopyNodeName= SeatID=2 [MiragePit] SystemType=PILOT_COCKPIT PilotModelName=FakePilot Position=0.0,0.0,0.0 SeatModelName=c7KfirMod SeatPosition=0.0,0,0.0 DetachWhenDestroyed=TRUE CanopyNodeName= SeatID=2

After downloading and installing that beautiful Mirage IIIB mod i am missing parts of the Cockpit i was meeting the Requirements: DLC Mirage IIIO. It does not show up complete, most of it remains dark see the copy screen. Not really sure what's wrong since I met the Requirements like installing the DLC Mirage IIIO. Thanks for any help on that, it's very much appreciated....

I read the following! Looks like a burn through on one of the convergent or divergent segments. NOT a good thing, a lot of stuff get fried! -
New guy SF2V mod folder question.
Flamesky replied to JBBLack's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
As some members already mention befor you have to start each modul for instance like, StrikeFighters2 Israel, StrikeFighters2 Vietnam and so on once so that it can created the so called mod folder its been called the mod folder even you cant find a folder which is named explicit by the name (Mod) looking at the directory tree (see image). Just copy the downloaded content into the matching modul which you want it to be makes no senes copying a Eurofighter into the /StrikeFighters2 Vietnam/ folder stick to the right year, era and country of origin. But then each one of course is free to copy what ever one feels like.Just my two cents. BTW: Gespeicherte Spiele / means / Saved Games -
No chaff and flares on F-8 during Vietnam?
Flamesky replied to Chakat_Avocado's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Damn it ! The F-8 Crusader “The Last of the Gunfighters” one of the most beautiful Warbirds in American Aviation History. The F-8 Crusader Once Scared a Vietnamese MiG Pilot Into Ejecting Before a Dogfight. The image shows: RF-8G Crusader of VFP-63 is launched from USS Coral Sea (CVA-43), in 1973. The RF-8G is the reconnaissance version of the famous F-8 “Crusader,” the last U.S. Navy jet fighter who’s primary armament consisted of cannons rather than missiles. With its powerful afterburning J-57 engine, the F-8 is the first supersonic Navy fighter. On July 16, 1957, then Major John Glenn, USMC, who later became the first man to orbit the Earth, completed the first supersonic transcontinental flight averaging 732.5 mph flying an earlier model, the RF-8A. During the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1963, the RF-8A, provided vital photographs regarding Soviet missile emplacements. The aircraft on display is 1 of 73 RF-8G models upgraded in 1965 -
I personally dont like the idea of a SF2 merged installation so i Don't know if that has a influence. Do you have a merged SF2 installation ? I have installed all the SF2 modules in separate directories like! Saved Games/ThirdWire/StrikeFighters2/StrikeFighters2 Europe/ and so on. Or maybe try to re-download the file then reinstall it. Thats all i can suggest from my site.

Air Victory Kills Decals
Flamesky replied to Flamesky's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
also, did the Israelis put kill markings on during the wars? That's a good question (daddyairplanes) which i can't really answer 100% but i assume it must have been looking at the Photo which shows Brig - General Mordechai Hod foto taken on the June 10th 1967 whit an Air Kill. I guess during the 60ths and 70ths it was an act of being proud of showing the enemy kills in defending one's homeland which is understandable. Maybe it was also an act to scare off the enemy just assuming. Please correct me if i am wrong i read that the USAF marked their kills like Air Ace Col. Robin Olds flying the F-4C Phantom with a red star and this was during the Vietnam war and not during being off duty. Since i read that Baron Manfred von Richthofen WW1 Ace 82kills was asked by his supreme command to paint the planes of his fighter Squadron also kown as Flying Cirus useing camelfalouge. Richthofen replyed no the enemy should see when we attack we dont have to hide. Ok the cirumstances where different being WW1 but i think the basic idea behind is scare off your enemy and be pround of your kills. Fotos from L: to R: Brig - General Mordechai Hod, Brig - General Giora Even-Epstein "Hawkeye," with his Mirage IIIC and in his F-16 finally 17 Air Kills.During his eventful visit to the US in 1998, Brig - General Giora Even-Epstein "Hawkeye," meeting the Blue Angels beside one of the teams F/A -18 Hornets after watching their home-base air show demonstration. (IAF) Duke took me on a visit to TOPGUN and I got to meet with the pilots there. The meeting was planned to last just 30 minuntes, but I ended up sitting with them for three hours. They peppered me with questions about my dogfights.... -
Air Victory Kills Decals
Flamesky posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Who may ever is so kind to shine some light on this topic. Since i did not succeed using the search function i am gonna place my request over here. Is there a way to edit the Air Victory Kills Decals i know that under LOADOUT (Individual Markings) there are Numbers for instance like 259 ******** and Stars, the Stars which stand for Air Victory Kills. My Question: Is there a way to edit those kills that they can be placed on any aircraft? Any help is much appreciated. -

Flamesky replied to Flamesky's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Thanks for shining some light on the topic. To clarify! Maybe one has to also consider in which context the use of bold letters was used. It was not by any means my intention to appear rude it was thought to express and underline my very thanks to the guys who answered on the spot. -

Flamesky replied to Flamesky's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Thanks for the info about the kill markings. And i didn't knew about not using any bold lettering since it's an option available to use in the menubar. Just curious but shouldn't it, in this case, be disabled to prevent any further use of it like members running into it not knowing about it? -

Thanks once more Ludo for presenting us with such great Mirages Mods in general. It's very much appreciated I've been and still am a Mirage III lover since the early 70th's. Of course, i also love the Mirage F-1 The Mirage IIIC is one of those jets that looks like it’s going Mach 2 even when it’s parked. The picture shows Elie Buge in a Mirage III CZ Elie Buge decided to join the French Air Force. In the spring of 1941, he set off for Châteauroux, which was then in the Free Zone, where he stayed for several months before embarking on a series of experiences abroad. He spent time in French-speaking North Africa (Morocco and Algeria) and then in the USA in 1943, where he obtained his fighter pilot’s license. From there, Elie Buge went to England, where he was assigned to the 145th Wing of the Royal Air Force. At the end of World War II, he transferred from his squadron based in Germany to the second fighter squadron in Dijon.
