NF-5 wing tanks help
Wrench replied to daddyairplanes's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
the having the tank skins in the skin folder trick only works if the tanks are part of the aircraft lod, iirc (like the stock 3W birds) otherwise, it's the old hex-edit trick to create new tanks specific to a skin, which requires the End User to change them manually on the Loadout Screen. as to not showing up, is there a main ini, and a data ini IN the tank's folder? (i know it's a dumb question, but...) -
How can i have more than one GermanyCE based terrains ?
Wrench replied to squid's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
did you change the ini names? (and why would you need more than one? just use the tile size that works/runs best your machine, and let it go at that) -

Republic F-84G Thunderjet by RussoUK , For SF2
Wrench posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
File Name: Republic F-84G Thunderjet by RussoUK , For SF2 File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 22 September 2011 File Category: F-84 Republic F-84G Thunderjet by RussoUK =For SF2, Any and All (Full-4 Merged Reccomended/Preferred,etc) *Expansion Pak 1 may be necessary for WW2 era weapons, if not using the GunnyPak* Some modifications, tweeks, and general fiddling on Russo's fine F-84G Thunderjet. Skins provided are: 159th FBS, USAF in Korea 468th SFS, 508th SFW, USAF/SAC, Turner AFB, GA (both by JSF_Aggie) 6th Aerobrigata AMI (originally by Stephan S, with all new decals by me) Royal Danish Air Force Portugese Air Force, 20th Squadron Generic Natural Metal (above 3 by me) All new decals for the RDAF (historicaly correct, but representing no particular squadron) and a 'generic' set of serials and Buzz Numbers for the G-NM are included. As generic in nature, they represent no particular squadron, but these along with the G-NM skin can be used for other NATO operative countries (Greece, Turkey, etc). The 6 ACB skin has several actual, historic serials. These are marked with a star (*) on the number lst. All others ARE those as used by AMI T-Jets, but was unable to lock in a particular unit. Some of the additions/changes are locating the node-name so the nose wheel now piviots for steering, addition of a landing light (nose only), canopy operated via manual animation key (use, as expected, Shift/0). Armor protection has also been upgraded. The avionics have been adjusted to activate the radar-ranging gunsight. A new userlist was also created -it may not be fully accurate, and adjustments are welcomed! Loadouts use WW2 era bombs from the GunnyPak, but is easily readjusted to use those from SF2 expansions 1 & 2. External drop tanks use the everpresent F-86 tanks for those under-fuselage mounts (closest shape and size). A new AN-M81 260 lb fragmentation bomb (from KAW) is included and used for CAS/Armed Recon. The inner hardpoints have been split into 2 groups, as the G model had a nuclear delivery mode, with a bomb on one inner hardpoint, and a drop tank on the other. These early bombs are available in my 3W F-84F upgrade kit, available here at CA. For mission builders, an "alternative loadout for CAS/Attack/SEAD is included using the Triple rocket racks. As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!! PLEASE read the extensive "Notes" section ... there's Vital Information on operation uses and glitches that you need to be aware of. Happy Landings! wrench kevin stein Click here to download this file -

RDAF Camo, F-84G Thunderjet
Wrench posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
File Name: RDAF Camo, F-84G Thunderjet File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 23 September 2011 File Category: F-84 RDAF Camo SkinPak for F-84G Thunderjet =For SF2, Any and All (Full-4 Merged Reccomended/Preferred,etc) A simple reskin/redecaling for the recently released F-84G Upgrade Pak. This skin represent Euro-style camoflaged Thunderjets of the Royal Danish Air Force. They were painted such (as what little data seems available) during the later years of their service. The skin itself is a repainted/relined version of the 1stGen JRV (Yugoslavian AF) skin by Homer. I just retouched some bits to remove other bits! Full credit goes to him for the skin (wherever he may be). As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!!

Things related to the Anatolian Terrain
Wrench replied to PureBlue's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
there has to be a way to replicate the caldera ... even if custom tiles need to be made (look at the barrier islands I had to make for the Cuba OTC map) It's usually the cursed 'flatten airfield' that screws up the surrounding terrain. -

Wrench replied to ace888's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
since the Misti F-2A isn't a TMF product...might be a bit difficult for them to update it. IIRC, it was done by wpnsgt ages ago... There is an SF2 version already available (but you prolly knew that!!) -

A little "oppsy" fix -- when I splilt the rocket stations, I inadvertantly 'rematched' the 2 fus stations into one group copy/paste the data below DIRECTLY OVER the existing hardpoint station callouts: this will restore them back to their correct sequence sorry about that people!! -

extract the 'instant action.ini' from MissionData.cat, put it into the /Flight folder, and edit each individual flight of aircraft to what you want, dependant on year availablity we been doing that for our WW2 installs since 2005!! -

F-89D and F-89H
Wrench replied to krgf15's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The C uses standard HVARs, so they're a bit "off"*. But the C has 6 20mm guns...so that makes up for it For the D & J, why not just use the rockets I supplied?? Even the AI uses them (and sometimes even gets a hit) http://combatace.com/files/file/5539-f-89c-scorpion-57th-fis-skin-ini-update-pake/ http://combatace.com/files/file/5638-f-89d-scorpion-75th-fis-skin-ini-weapons-upgrade-pak/ http://combatace.com/files/file/5703-f-89h-scorpion/ http://combatace.com/files/file/5683-f-89j-late-scorpion/ *easily tweeked, as done to the mmhe-1, by adding a sustainer so they fly farther and straighter availabe for SF2 as a single pack of all aircraft and skins, see SF2 downloads/Aircraft -
