Aeronautical charts for Moving Map display.
Wrench replied to garyscott's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I don't know which PM level it uses (most likely planningmap1), but that's hell of an idea!! I've always wanted more accurate planningmaps, that look more like real nav charts!!! getting them to match what/how targets are set/placed in the _targets.ini; now THAT'S the question!! plannimg maps are (if 3 are used), 1 = 512x512 2 = 1024x1024 3 = 2048x2048 they must be square! -

that Harrier looks vaguely familiar!! ====== somebody wanted to know what Bandar Abbas looks like... (much modified from Gepard's original layout). Terrian is 99.99999% done. just waiting for the CAS, Armed Recon and Auntie Ship issues to get fixed, and then it'll get released. -

SF2NA Iceland Classic TFD/HFD terrain
Wrench replied to gerwin's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Knowledge Base
PB: I was trying to add the Saknussem-Lindenbrook Geological Institute at the foot of Mt. Sniffles. On Gerwins terrain, it worked; the imported Building1 showed. On TKs, it didn't -- even with the lods and bmps placed in the /IcelandNA terrain folder. Nice to see the am_twr works! I have, however, added Reykeivek (sp?) city to both, but the docks don't show. Same docks Im using in the Gulf, that work fine! becuase Gerwin's is using tiles, my Reykeivek is a bit too far inland. On TKs, it's "close enough". -

Med, 2011.... AdA Rafale's depart Luqa, Malta to support the Libyan Rebels bid for freedom. -- Juls: It's custom tile, with many 'flat objects' making up the quay/piers/docks (ie: gepards kai gross and kai klein). I can post a better pic of the full harbor/turning basins, if anyone wants (Bandar Abbas) -
Rafale C for SF2
Wrench replied to Heberth's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
small tweek to the textureset.ini, and main ini replase the Squadron= lilne with this: Squadron=7-1FAF should activate the correct display (especially when using the 'cheater' decal -attached!) unzip and drop the sqtail.tga into the TOP of the /Decals folder (ie: Decals/SqTail.tga) add this to the decals ini: [Decal011] MeshName=Fuselage DecalLevel=1 DecalFacing=TOP FilenameFormat=Decals/SqTail Position=0.0,0.0 Scale=0.00000.1 DecalMaxLOD=2 this is VERY cool! Congrats! edit: I also changed the animation key for the canopy to shift/0. It's what all the modders have been doing. -

there's a max limit on attached pic. YOu can just to to your Profile, Manage Attachements, and delete the older/oldest ones. another way would be to upload to the CA Gallery, and then just link to them. Don't think there's a limit on that -

SF2NA Iceland Classic TFD/HFD terrain
Wrench replied to gerwin's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Knowledge Base
here's one for fun, can be used on either gerwin's or the stock INA terrain... [TargetArea058] Name=Mt.Snaefllsjokull Position=279698,552538 ActiveDate=0 Location=1 Alignment=FRIENDLY add to your IcelandNA_Targets.ini. Unfortunately, on the 3W map, you can't add any 'terrain objects' (buildings). which kinda sucks. But, at least, you can let Prof. Lindenbrook have someplace to hang out! -
Trying to limit Modex values with skins
Wrench replied to HomeFries's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
by having the 'custom' decals in the seperate (don't let them be pulled from the cats) /A-6E_79/*skninname*/D/*numbers*, and by renumbering them (after removing the 00 sequences). That's the only way I know! Or, have each squadron's skin decal set for the Modex required. seperate squadrons should have their own specific modex decals -

E-2C mods question for you all...
Wrench replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
all that really would be needed is a partial template, if one wanted to paint the tail markings on the fins (and I've no idea on the mapping yet), or something to make decals from -which is MUCH easier! there's some nice profiles in the Checklist #3 on the Hawkeye, which I finally got converted from djvu to pdf. It's 220mgs, so if anyone want to try ... I'll pm them the book (if I can squeeze it into my pm box!) -
A/S missions .. no primary target?
Wrench posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
is this something newly broken??? testing the shipping routes on the PG map, and the ships show up where they're supposed to, but no "PRIMARY TARGET" tag on the E key display. or is this just something to do with the add on ships? In this case, it's the container ship (carguero?). They get hit and explode nicely, but 'mission fail'. or do we now have to only use the 2 stock boats????? I'm not understanding this at all.... -
A/S missions .. no primary target?
Wrench replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
as ebruger noted over at 3W forum (and I'm exceptionally happy he did!! -- MANY MANY thanks Eric!!!), it seems to be related to any/all terrains which have had the NavalMap=TRUE statement set. It also seem to put waypoints (at least in my testing yesturday on the PG terrain), wwwwaaaaaaaaaaayyy off sometimes for CAS which is why on stock and/or unmodded terrains the Primary Target tag shows. Which reinforces my initial premise of something hard coded is "just ain't right". With us doing the diagnostic, perhaps we can help TK narrow it down, and not let the last 6 years of my life's work go down the s**tter. To say nothing of the 3-5 terrains/terrain mods still in the works (I'm sure we could get away with it in Panama, not having carrier stations...)
