  1. streaming shows would look real good (and other things ... wink wink, nudge nudge)
  2. I'm just curious, do you ever sleep???

    SF2 Upgrade Pack For Western Transports, Airliners and AWACs by Veltro2K 6/1/2018 = For SF2, Any/All (Full 5 Merged RECCOMENDED!) = This is a remod pack for Veltro2k's Western/NATO Transport, Airliner and AWAC aircraft. This package =ONLY= contains the data inis for the aircraft listed below. You will still need to locate the original aircraft. It is highly suggested (read: REQUIRED) that you have SF2NA as part of your merged installs, as several of these reference the stock 3W Tu-95 Bear destroyed model. Some reference the stock 3W An-12, Tu-16 or B-52D (SF2V) destroyed models as well. Flight Models remain "as issued"; they've not been touched by me. All New Data Inis Included in this pack are for: C-5A Galaxy C-17 Globemaster II C-141A Starlifter C-141B Starlifter G-222/C-27 Spartan E-767 KC-767 (KC-46) Nimrod MR.1 (RAF ASW/Martime Patrol) Br.1150 Atlantique (ASW/Martime Patrol) PB-1W Navy Fortress (USN 1940s/50s AEW - B-17) DC-8 * B-747 Pan Am"Jumbo Jet" *The DC-8 mods are for the package by Daddyairplanes* All aircraft have had their data inis reworked to correct, add, move, remove or generally "fix" all the hit boxes, relocate components (ie: fuel tanks, as best as possible inside the airframe) and in general clean up many things that simply escaped notice. The exception here is the Pan Am 747, which gets a partly repainted skin, with all new 100% accurate civil registration number decals (18) AND their matching "Clipper" names. Decal Randomization is "TRUE". The 747 and DC-8s also get an avionics upgrade (GM radar). Some sounds are included; you may have them alread, or not; but I like "to be sure". Please note, some of these aircraft may NOT be in the SF2 downloads section; one will need to Search the SF1/Wo* (1stGen) downloads. Equally important, is to HAVE the aircraft installed =BEFORE= installing this Upgrade Pack. Kinda makes sense, right? <gr> As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. Happy Landings! Wrench Kevin Stein EDIT: 6/4/18 - added missing G-222 folder and inis
  4. I like the fact that the gunner gets to sit down!!

    WTH? can't even log in! keeps timing out. Must be something at my end here in California. em, if anyone grabbed the Japan 1945 book, could I ask for a copy?? I can live without the Jg 52 and M-1 vs T-72 ... and I'll keep trying to get in. Very odd!

    what's the code for this week? I can't find on their site
  12. that's because the 3W forums no longer exist. my guess would be for implementing damage. We've seen fuel and oil leaks, and on the Spits/Mustangs/S-99-109G I think I might have seen coolant leaks. I 'way back in 1stGen, I remember a hydralic failure - controls locked up and plane was still flying (skyhawk) hopefully, someone else might know more
  13. remember, the hangar is generic -- to be used by both sides, OTH, it's easy to paint a logo out (done if before!)
  14. a shopping mall!!! LOL!!
  15. yah, maybe add the offices tucked up against the side wall (i guess?) most of the floor space should be clear

  17. well, it's a bit on the small side. I mean, I know it's first go around.... C-5 galaxy convention courtesy of my upping the parking change percentage the stary hangar 6 on the left is 32x32 m the stock hangar 3 on the right is 72x72 so, this needs to be 120m by (at least) 90 and the finished unit must be mapped internally and externally, so you can't see through the walls from the inside. thank you brother GKabs!!
  18. Since I started this mess, I'm MORE than happy to place on a terrain and see how it fits!! That was really fast! Thanks!!!
  19. not really, the coordinates can be set and labeled for ONLY LargeParking, based on the wingspan setup in the airfields' ini (LargeParkingMaxSpan=). But they're spawning is always a bit random
  20. re: hangars yes, something like that!! But due to how the airfields are built, closed at one end
  21. well, if you run of out things to do, some REALLY large, open door hangars could come in handy. You know, tall and wide enough to fit a 747 or B-52 sized aircraft into. Be nice to replace the 3W large(ish) hangars on the various airbases, and be able to have it as a large parking spot. just throwing that out there....

  22. Soviet-Polish War addon?

    Wrench replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2

    you need tiles like these "standard 3W river" (desert, VNSEA, GCE) to IsraelME "river" -- more like a stream than a river. I can't find the PSDs I used to make these, but the tiles themselves are in my IsraelME upgrade/rebuild/correction. or I could just send (whoever) the 2 tgas, and you can work from those. They're only 'stock' size (256x), but you can figure out to upsize as needed. As you most likely won't be actually using these, they'd be a great starting point.

    Gents, I've been browsing it, and let me tell you, it's not just western & modern aircraft ...WW2 (both sides) and plenty of RedAir - reading Russian is a requirement!! seriously, French, British, Italian, Russian/Soviet, Swedish ... I mean, like wow!!! ya' know??

    Avialogs, one of the best sources for aircraft manuals on PDF is now free for 3 months go to avialogs.com for more details (saw this on WW2Aircraft.net -- also a really good message board!)
  25. think how much deck room would be saved with the shorter wings on that; no need to have them fold for storage!
