BAF F-104G
Wrench replied to paulopanz's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
well, I guess I can stop fiddling with mine! (I like yours better!! ) thanks!! EDIT: since the national marking are painted on, here's a little trick to get the nation name to show up on the Loadout Screen's menu open the decals ini, and add this: [Decal007] MeshName=wing_left DecalLevel=0 DecalFacing=TOP FilenameFormat=InsigniaWingL Position=0.0,0.0 Scale=0.000001 DecalMaxLOD=3 this'll force the game engine to 'think' there's a marking there, and turn-on the name on the loadout screen -
cockpit problem
Wrench replied to Ice Man's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
there is NO stock cockpit for the BirdDog, as it was always an AI aircraft, and never designed for player usage (it's poor FM alone says that). you might, with a lot of work, get the SF2 mod I uploaded to work. good luck! -

there's a bit of a problem with the shock/intake cones ...they're only mapped at one place for both sides... as you can see below. uforntunately, might have to drop the accuracy a bit, and leave them black (you know how I hate being inaccurate, to0!) those badges ARE small! let me see what I can do.... -

Can´t find an archive
Wrench replied to Wilches's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
yes, they really aren't needed is SF2, due to the fact that individual weapons are folderized with their own main ini and data inis. don't even need the Editor, realy, anymore -

Wrench replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Actually, not so much. Using bobrock template, just repaint (via new layer) the 3tone and see what happens! bobrock's template comes with a GREAT NM layer, too. lots of stencling, etc the only difference I've noted, looking at the pics in Lock-ON #1 (104G-J, mostly focused on BAF zippers) is the red waring stripe and placard i'll post some pics later (of both) -

look in ObjectData015.cat .. there's a LOT of BAF numbers and codes hidden in there (stumbled on them today looking for BLW Zipper codes) -
DLC 12 is out F-8E(FN)
Wrench replied to MigBuster's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
well...let's see.....off the top of my head, RAAF Mirages (he did say 'they were coming', iirc, right after I released my pak) of course, to do it up right, 3 different versions would be needed. Clem's available, if one knows where to look. The SF2 version I'd uploaded was removed at Marcello's request; I'd thought it was TMFs, since it was in one of their packs, but it weren't. -
add-on plane explodes upon load-up
Wrench replied to squid's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
that's because it's referencing an airfield ini that's NOT in the cat file that's being pointed to for object reference. A common problem, easily fixed by dropping ALL the airfield inis (including to German/Soviet/VPAF base inis) INTO the terrain in question (hence, the reason they're always included with my terrain mods -- can't take for granted that the End User will have the proper terrain cat to reference.) or, if the terrain guy is smart, just using the standard or garden variety Desest airfield inis for both side, and make target object adjustments accordingly. -
