SF2 KAW Independence Class CVL, USS Bataan
Wrench posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
File Name: SF2 KAW Independence Class CVL, USS Bataan File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 09 December 2012 File Category: Aircraft Carriers SF2 KAW Independence Class CVL, USS Bataan = For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Full-5 Reccomended/Preferred) = *Note: There is a distinct probability that this mod will =NOT= work properly in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs. Due to data ini and other statements will =NOT= be in effect in 1stGen SF/Wo* at any patch level, it is NOT designed for use in SF/Wo*. It is designed for use in SF2NA, at the most CURRENT patch level. Your milage will vary!* As promised.... This pak contains the INDEPENDENCE class CVL (light carrier), USS Bataan, used during the Korean War. The data ini herein includes eburger's fixes for the arrestor cables (thanks Eric!) This ship is ONLY designed for use with the KAW mod. It's fully compliant with SF2NA, having been tested in that envoriment. Names lists, data ini tweeks add the SF2NA radar statments, and other small adjustments. All weapons (ok, the guns!) you should have already in you various mods folders, so they are NOT included. BE ADVISED: it may/will cause a "strange" issues in game-generated single missions. I've detailed these in the "Notes" section below. As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please -READ- them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too for futher explinations, clarifactions, illuminations, credits, and so forth. Happy Landings wrench kevin stein Click here to download this file- 1 reply

SF2 Independence Class CVL -Ver 2
Wrench replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Doom 1? Doom 2? Doom 3? expanson WADs beyond numbering... Thulsa Doom? Doomsday? mostly, and the easiest way to do it, is just take this latest data ini, and copy/paste the new Swedish Navy stuff (the goodies at the top) into it, and resave as ***name here*** _data.ini -
quick look at SF2NA map files
Wrench replied to orsin's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
my guess would be objectdata002.cat; at least for aircraft, ships and vehicles the terrain bits MAY still be in the terrain cat, but the extractor is probably set up in such a way that keeps it frm seeing them. -
quick look at SF2NA map files
Wrench replied to orsin's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
there are no TODs on the LOD based terrain there are no tiles on the lod based terrain; its an assigned 'material'* all objects (hereinafter refered to as "terrain objects") are physical models NOT constrainted via TOD setup, and are placed individually via the _targets ini (that is sorta the same as TFD/HFD terrains, but expaned expotentialy) *one of the reasons there is no 'beach' at the land/water interface, and therefore no sea/land transition tile, as there are no tiles. Compared to 'old school' terrains, it's a step forward, but a step sideways at the same time. It's my assumption (oh! that word!!), that airfield locations are a 'flattened' in MAX, as opposed to 'old school' with the terrain editor. How this is done or how it works, I've not clue, as I'm not a MAX user (or owner for that matter!) -

Wrench replied to ColStafford's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
i've never used GIMP, but iirc Daddyairplanes does and it generate the 32-bit tga (with alpha channel) quite easitly he said. I have pant.net, but only use for DDS textures; some of the skins on the F-80 and other choked PS.7 nearly to death! my primary tools are photoshop 6 and 7 (I don't like how 7 draws rivet lines) apology accepted. now, lets move on!! -

nice job! the stock 3W Mk9 spit could be reskinned for AdA use, iirc. If/when Cocas releases the Seafire III, also off Aeromanches in Indochina btw, there's a new -5 in the works. Cocas has the MAX file, a gift I recieved from The Great & Powerful Zur. All mapped too! -------- 1st FAA kill of WW2... Martlet vs Condor... -

Tunnels
Wrench replied to RogerSmith's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
like the XvT or was it XwA, or both?? on the training grounds, flying through asteriod factories and suchlike unfortunately, that is absolutely impossible with this game engine. OTH, you can fake something underground; i can't remember if it was Russo or MajorLee for a DBS2 terrain, missile silos that 'appear' to be below ground level, and a soviet sub base 'built' into a cliff. But again, these are OBJECTS, completly sepearte from the terrain itself. Trust the Terrain Guru on this!
