No a2a missiles for enemy a/c
hotrodss posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hello all I've installed the Vietnam 1984 campaign and noticed there are no a2a missiles for the enemy migs (-21, -29, -23), is there a way to fix it so they have them when I play campaign or single misson. Thanks -
Hello/Help :helpsmilie: I'm trying to play WOV with Vietnam 1984 campaign, I'm using the patched 08.30.06 version with Bunyaps 3 Jul 06 weapons pak. I followed the read.me to the letter, the game loads fine but the a/c's do not have any wepons when I go to the loadout screen. Also, the mission date for these a/c's (A-6E; F-4S; F-14A; F-15C; F-16Blk30; F/A-18A & Mig-29A) is not displayed in single mission play. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, getting a little frustrated Thanks in advance

Help Help Help
hotrodss replied to hotrodss's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Thank you Dave, that helped with single missions as far as giving me a mission date, but I still have the problem of no weapons in the loadout screen for single missions or campaigns. EX. Let's say I click an F/A-18a for a strike mission, the hanger screen appears and I click on the loadout box, when that screen appears I look at the STORES QTY on the left and there are no weapons to choose from. This is the problem I'm having, how do I get the weapons back. The same thing happens wheather it's single player or in the campaign. -
Korean Air War Campaign
hotrodss posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hello all, I just downloaded the Korean Air War Campaign by Edward for SFP1 and there is no terrain file for Korea. All other files loaded OK except for this one, can I get the file from somewhere else. I checked the campaign downloads section and did not see anything for Korea. -

Engine noise too loud
hotrodss posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I've recently installed some add-on A/C's from C5's site & this one. The install went through fine, when I pick a jet to fly ex...F-4, A-7 or other high performance fighters (except for the F-15A/C/D/E). The noise from the engines (even at idle) is so loud I barely hear my wingman, the tower or Red Crown. How can I fix this?, is there a different sound file I can use. I tried using one from a clean install of WOE and that didn't work. :helpsmilie: -
ORANG & Eglin CO F-15C skin a no show in WOE
hotrodss posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I just installed the these two skins and when I play WOE (single mission), pick the skins in the drop down box and go fly I get two very blank (white) F-15's?!?!?!? I open the Aircraft folder for both A/C's and notice that the Eglin CO folder (EGco) does not have a "D" folder and the Oregan folder (ORANG) does. Now, I don't know if this is the problem, but I did copy the TextureSet to F-15 Configuration Setting file and numbered them in order per the readme text. I REALLY want the Eglin Co skin, I saw this bird often on the flightline when I was active duty Air Force stationed there and I also have a painting of this A/C, it just brings back great memories -

hotrodss replied to hotrodss's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yes, It's for the F-15C. I have that A/C downloaded, the last two links you gave me, F-15C OREGAN ANG & SF F-15C 33RD TFW COMMANDER SKIN are the correct links, I downloaded them about a year ago and just now got around to installing them. Should I delete the files (skins) I have and download them again to try another installation. -
Need help with external tanks for F/A-18F
hotrodss posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I just downloaded and installed the F/A-18F add-on A/C from Erwin_Hans, the install was fine, but I do not have any external tanks. I copied and pasted the "weapondata ini.txt" file to the weapondata.ini file and numbered it accordingly. I went to loadout screen within the game and did not see a listing for the centerline or wing external tanks. Do the files need to go into a different location? -

Need help with external tanks for F/A-18F
hotrodss replied to hotrodss's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Ok, thanks I'll give it a try. I've deleted WoE from my system and will start fresh with a clean install. One last question...I have the service packs (patches)--that were releleased before 2008) for Wov, WoE & SFP1. Does the Oct. 2008 patch for these three sims supercede the previous service packs/patches? Example...I installed WoE, would I need to install patches 07.10.06, 08.30.06 & WoE_hotfix or can I just install the Oct 2008 patch and be all set, have fun and shoot down migs. -
Need help with external tanks for F/A-18F
hotrodss replied to hotrodss's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I'm asking how do you use the weapon editor...for example, I'm playing WoI and there is a file in the main directory called 'Weapon Editor'. Is this the file you're referring to? This Weaon Editor file is contained in the Weaons Pack_03Jul06 by Rob 'Bunyap' McCray for all four sims, I've installed that weapons pack into WoI. Is this the same file you sent me the link to earlier? -

hotrodss replied to hotrodss's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Thanks...Is it compatible with WoE, WoV, SFP1 & WoI? I've downloaded it and what file(s) do/does it go into? I only have winRAR do I need winzip to use it? Sorry for all the ?'s, I'm trying to learn how to use all of this stuff. -

Having problems with some F/A-18 skins
hotrodss posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I've downloaded the following F/A-18 skins; VFA-41 Black Aces, VFA-102 Diamondbacks, VFA-106 Gladiators and VMFA 235 Death Angles a.k.a. stand down colors. When installing these skins I get a "zip is not supported/file is broken" message, is there a way to fix this? -

I'm using 7-Zip, I downloaded from Colunm5 website when I used their skins, everything has worked fine except for the skins I've mentioned. Should I switch to WinRAR? I dl'd VFA-102 regular by hrntfixr. -
Having trouble trying to play BS 1983 campaign, I reinstalled a 'clean' version of SFP1 and then installed BS 1983, that's when I get the error message saying the game has encountered a problem and needs to close. I have the following service packs; SFP1 sp05.15.06 // SFP1 sp05.25.06 // SFP1 sp07.10.06 and SFP1 sp08.30.06, but they are not installed. The campaign was posted by vinman72564 on 5 June '06, if anyone knows him or if he still visits the site his input would be very helpful as this is becoming increasingly frustrating. I'm not sure if I need current patches or updates to make this work. Hotrodss

Help! trying to play Burning Sands 1983 campaign
hotrodss posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hello all, I'm having a lot of problems getting this add-on campaign to work. So far I've just reinstalled SFP1 on my computer, without adding the service pack upgrades from Thirdwire. Next, I extracted the campaign files to the SFP1 directory as instructed in the readme file. I click on the SFP1 icon to run the game and I get the error messsage "SFP1 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" and it's followed by the "Send Error Report/Don't Send" I don't know what else to do? Any assistence is greatly appreciated. I also have the Burning Sands upgrade patch and the Burning Sands service pack 4 update, but i'm holding off till I can get the main add-on working. Shawn aka Hotrodss -
