No .ini File Made
Wrench replied to wasteboy's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I may be just me being old fashioned, but ... I would put sF2I campaigns ONLY in the SF2I mod folder I would put SF2V campaigns ONLY in the SF2V mod folder. there may not be any actual differences, as all 5 game (7 if you count the expansion packs) use all the same core files and such, but I'm a traditionalist -
No .ini File Made
Wrench replied to wasteboy's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
my guess is the differences between Windows 7, 10 and 11, for the mod folder location and naming conventions. At the very worst, you uninstall, reinstall and SEE where plane jane things wind up (this is something I'm going to be going through very soon, as I'm needed a new machine) -
New SF2 addiction...
Wrench replied to sixstrings's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I trying to find the picture, for many years ago, of a pilot on the wing pylon of an F-15 or f-16, pointing his pistol. I vaguely remember it titled "new air to air weapon" or something like that -

no need for an avionics folder; the necesary coding is built into the game. not to worry, just go back to flying!!! -

the "PageUp" button is the default radar mode switcher. Try hitting it a few times. I'll be the Ground Map (as avionics60.dll calls it) will come right up. -

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 -

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)
