Wrench replied to JonathanRL's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion

File Name: Super Etendard & Super Etendard (M) for SF2 by Foxmonter File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 12 October 2011 File Category: Other Dassault Super Etendard & Super Etendard(M), SF2 Combo Pak (by FoxMonter) For SF2, Any & All (Full-4 Merged Prefered - At Minimum, =MUST= have SF2:I AND SF2:V) *Note: the reason for these requirements are the cockpits used on =BOTH= versions of the aircraft. They reference 2 very different cockpits and avionics displays, only truely available in a Full-4 Merged installs.* *Note x2: There are 2 seperate readmes in this Combo Pak - one each for the Super Etendard and Super Etendard (Modernized). It's suggested that after downloading this pak, you unzip to a temp folder or your desktop, and =READ= both before installing, as well as this complete readme. Install instruction are, as usual, the same* This package contains 2 complete aircaft - the early version, Super Etendard as used by the French Navy and Argentinian Navy, and the late 90s to-date version, the Super Etendard (Modernized) as used only by the French Navy. All skins, inis, decal, weapons, etc are included. Specific details for each are in their own readmes, inside this archive. You'd do well to read BOTH!!! (no kidding! really!!) All new SF2-style hangar & loading screens are included (exceptng the SuE loading, it's the orignal converted to jpg). As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!! I'd reccomend that you unzip this archive FIRST (to a temp folder or your desktop), and READ through this readme document, and the other 2, before installing. The extensive "Notes" section in each readme also contains a Change List of modifications and other impertinant information. All original readmes are included, for historical reference. Happy Hunting! wrench kevin stein EDIT: updated 10/13/2011 -- added the missing Tank_SUE_Gray For thos that already downloaded this pack, the tank in availalbe in the SF2 Weapons downloads section Click here to download this file

New "Undead Horde" squad
Wrench posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
File Name: New "Undead Horde" squad File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 12 October 2011 File Category: Ground Object Mods New "Undead Infantry Horde" = For SF2 (Any and All) and SF/Wo* = A Horrific New Enemy for the 3rdWire series; just in time for Halloween!! A Just-For-Fun Mod, for folks with twisted imaginations! Modifications/repaints and ini tweeks to Kesselbrut's Infanty squad now create Legions of the Walking Dead. A new sound file is included, along with instructions on editing the Soundlist.ini to add it. Included is a CAS mission on the Desert terrain, so you see how they work. Within that mission, are 6 escaping enemy transport aircraft. As they may be carring infected survivors, they cannot be allowed to escape!! Watchout for enemy air defenses as well! (NOT Zombie-crewed) As always, fairly simple easy to follow install instructions are included, so give them a read! Should be usable in SF/Wo*, but this is untested. There should be no reason why not... Duck, Cover and Cower ... they're coming for your brains... Enjoy! wrench kevin stein Click here to download this file -

VF-172 F2H2 Banshee colors
Wrench replied to Heck's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
here's an Orbat for USN/USMC units in korea - by ship and year. this is what we're (ok, should be) using for KAW. It definately show R for the code on VF172 Banjos on the Essex -
VF-172 F2H2 Banshee colors
Wrench replied to Heck's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
yes they should. also, notice the "R" CVW (CVG-17) code .. and Essex was S (CVG-5). Maybe a squadron 'chopped' to Essex, without proper squadron color, from another ship? red - 100 white -200 blue - 300 yellow- 400 green - 500 can't remember the 600 (purple?), very rare in any case. -

VF-172 F2H2 Banshee colors
Wrench replied to Heck's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
what are the Modex numbers? The series (100,200,300,etc) dictates what color is used. I should know ... I've done around 20 korean-era skins for Navy birds for KAW -

Delete painted on decals
Wrench replied to DarthRevan's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
yes, but you can always add noise to the repainted layer, and fade to match. That's how I did the RAAF Mirages and the F-114 mirage (and countless others!!) -

Delete painted on decals
Wrench replied to DarthRevan's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
there are several posts in several threads on "How To Do That" , by me explaining what to do basically, you need to create a partial template from the original skin bmp, with as many layers as necessary, repaint the affected panel and rivet lines (each a seperate layer, then fade down to match), color match the background region, paint over the insignia. Save and boom you're done it's not that hard at all. -

Weird models
Wrench replied to RogerSmith's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
that whole setup dosent even look right .... I see no "Saved Games/Third Wire/ .../ folders at all*. (Assuming Windows 7 - XP you should have a Third Wire folder in the /My Documents) As seen below, in a screenie of my set up. Do 'stock' aircraft work? assuming so, maybe reading some of the post in the SF2 Knowledge Base might be of some assistance http://combatace.com/topic/62302-what-is-the-mod-folder/ to start with wrench edit: *in the 2nd posted pic; I see it in the first one. The 2nd pic just looks like an unzipped aircraft folders (hope this don't sound too rude but...) Don't forget to read the "readme.txt" that should accompany every download! That has all the install instructions, if the uploader has done his/her/its job
