Interdictor Canberra cockpit stand in
Wrench replied to dtmdragon's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
the gauges are just gone, or not showing? if it's a missing texture, open the LOD with a hex editor and search for the bmp or jpgs or tgas or what/whichever it uses. -

another suggestion would be the stock 3w Meteor F8 pit. Works nice for the stock Vatour, as well -

Canopy Animation
Wrench replied to alexis99's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
DING DING DING! We have a winner! Give that man a che-root!!. There are so many things that never got implemented. We have what we have, and that's all we're gonna get. Having been around this game since 2004, I've pretty much seen it all. Even forgotten some stuff, too -

Drogue Chute, Drag Chute
Wrench replied to alexis99's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
A drogue chute is not a drag chute ... you can have both; when first deployed, the DROGUE pops out, and pulls the DRAG chute out I'd suggest watching some of the films around that show their deployments; most are from the 1950s (Bombers B-52, Strategic Air Command, tv series like Steve Canyon - it's on amazon) Drogues can also be used as a stabilazer, as skydivers (and some ejection modules) use them to control excessive movments (spinning, etc) before main chute deployment. (watch Apollo command modules, even in still you can see the drogues) -
Canopy Animation
Wrench replied to alexis99's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Very old news. Most of us have known this since WoV came out (for the A-6). IIRC, there's even a tutorial in the Knowledge Base. Can't remember if it's in 1stGen (SF/Wo*) or SF2 KBs Also, by Modder Consesus (tm), Canopy animations (manual input type) are Amimation_10, so to use the Shift/0 (zero) keystroke. Also the way it's been done since first discovered in the early 2000s (shift/9 is wingfold, just so's you know) -

TGA Decals
Wrench replied to LilLucy's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
TK's decal tutorial (available around here someplace!!) says a minimum of 5 pixels between the image and the edge of the background. I try to use substantially more -
it should be an easy copy/paste and ini text editing from the existing WW2 versions, afaik. Let me know if that don't work (I didn't do the IDFAF Forts)

That just reinforces the old adage ... "A good coat of paint can hide a multitude of sins" -
Drop tank issue.
Wrench replied to Schattenreich's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
My suggestion would be to toss the old Control.ini, and start fresh. Something went wrong somewhere. -
Drop tank issue.
Wrench replied to Schattenreich's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
yup .. Cntrl/D == tanks Cntrl/J == weapons (excepting gun pods and jammer pods) -
Drop tank issue.
Wrench replied to Schattenreich's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
iirc, drop tanks are a different keystroke from bombs/rocket pods. Been a while, so ... ??? -
forgot to mention, many are also on YouTube; I found some that had been colorized!!! enjoy!

Classic 1950's TV!!! The stuff we (ok, me and those of us 'of a certain age') I was going to watch the latest season of "Clarkson's Farm", when this show popped up on my 'reccomended' list Steve Canyon for those that don't know, it was originally a comic strip, then a TV show in 1959. It showcases the USAF in various stories. Here's the IMBD link https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051317/ If you have Amazon Prime, and it shows up your region, it's well it, just for the aircraft and such.

Fictional USCG Osprey
Wrench replied to ext's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Nice! Always wondered why the CG never thought to use them -
MiG-21bis engine WEP mode
Wrench replied to tiopilotos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Like Coupi said above, try looking at the F-86E/F/H engine sections. Fubar did a kind of 'fake engine' for the extra power thingy. -

how to stop deleted base game aircraft objects from reappearing?
Wrench replied to clim995's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
like we do for the WW2 installs, leave one of each type "modern" birds. I use the A-4E and Mig-21MF. So far (15+ years) the others haven't repopulated
