SF2HawkTmk1A New LOD

sometimes its not so much of not having the time, or not having the money -- its having someplace to DO it at!! Fortunately, my brother-from-another-mother, owns his own shop (well, him & his dad), so that's a lucky non-issue. Plus, having been in the biz for 30 years ... I still have 98.6% of all my stuff (~30k worth of tools!!!), stored in my mother garage (good thing she has a Corolla!) my 2 most prized tools: my Fluke meter and digial ocsillyscope. I really LIKE Swordsman's fix ... that's something even the dealer wouldn't have come up with (well, other that if possible, replacing that board!). Shows exceptional diagnostic skill, and the ability to 'think outside the box'

SF2HawkTmk1A New LOD
Wrench replied to russouk2004's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
i'll check it again! 2 minutes later... yup, it don't work. Well, rather than have Russ build a T-45 lod, I can rebuild all the inis, skins and such to use this one. Let me see what's what! edit: 1 minuet later.. ok, my bad! the t-45 IS a seperate lod; has different nose gear, and the hook. Disregard my previous post - in fact, Ill edit out the stuff for Goshawk -

Wrench replied to Harlock's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion

Help Needed: Finnish AF Hawk serials....
Wrench replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
oh, believe me, I WILL right now, with shadows=FALSE just looks odd on the runway! what really yanks my crank in SF2; once upon a time (ok, 06 level) you could pull the shd lod, rename them and have them work with a 'similarly shaped aircraft'. Not anymore ... pulled the A4 shd, renamed it to match thelod, and it just don't work. NO matter what the shadow statement is, it wants to use the main aircraft lod for shadow generation -

Can't hit SA-10 FlapLid radar with HARM/ALARM! Check this Fix.
Wrench replied to ianh755's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
i've had no problems killing them with Shrikes, HARMs or ALARMS... the "height" has nothing to do with the physical presence of the model in game ... tht's set by the min/max extensions all "height" sets is how tall (or high) the antenna dish (ok, the vitural reciever/transmistter horn) is above the vehicle frame.. iirc, the 'hieght' was set that way, because we lack the "BigBird", and allows it OTH views/targeting. -
Brewster B-339 Buffalo, ML-KNIL
Wrench posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
File Name: Brewster B-339 Buffalo, ML-KNIL File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 28 February 2012 File Category: British Commonwealth Brewster B-339 Buffalo, ML-KNIL, Pak For SF/WoV/WoE PTO Installs 1/8/09 This will allow you to re-create the Brewster B-339 as used the Dutch Army Air Force in the Netherlands East Indies, at the beginning of World War 2. This is an INCOMPLETE mod, as it only contains the inis and skins and some other small parts needed to create a nationalized version of the Dev A-Team F2A (USN). The aircraft's LOD and cockpit folders are =NOT= included -- you will need to copy them over from the F2A to complete this mod. 2 new skins, from new templates I created (based off the originals by Gramps) are included. One is a more-or-less 'standard' RAF style coloring, with the Orange roundel (trindel??), and the other is more NEI-ish; done up in "Old Leaf", "Young Leaf" uppers and natural metal unders, with the Dutch flag roundel (rectangudel???). Full instrucions in the enclosed read me - so READ it!! *while designed for 06 level SF/Wo*, it is usalbe in 08 level SF/Wo*, and in SF2. However, the FM WILL need rebuilding for SF2. Fly Accordingly!!* Click here to download this file -
Man, I missed this!!! I live less than a mile (the runway length), from this. Looks like they moved it from the older building on the north side of the field, to about mid-way down, in the center/southern side Link to LA Times article: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-0226-museum-of-flying-20120226,0,3798707.story Link to the Mueaum's website: http://museumofflying.com/ definately gonna have to check it out; mainly to see the RG Smith artworks they used to have in the old place (I had them ALL as a kid. Family ties to Douglas Aircraft: my cousin Terri worked there, and my Dad stood guard around it in early WW2)

TUTORIAL ON HOW TO CREATE SAM SITES?
Wrench replied to ignacioc91's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
it sure is possible .. I do it all the time. They're NOT mutually exclusive; they just may not show up all the time, or be different every time if using the generic target tags
