LOTR RNZAF Kfir C.16 "Raiona"
Wrench posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
View File LOTR RNZAF Kfir C.16 "Raiona" LOTR RNZAF Kfir C.16 "Raiona" -- For SF2, Full-4 Merged =ONLY!!!= This mod creates a fully new aircraft, an EXTENSIVELY upgraded Kfir "C16" as might be used by the RNZAF. It =REQUIRES= a Full-4 Merged install, or at the very least, SF2:I and SF2:V for the various and sundry bits used herein. If you do NOT have the minimum required game installs, DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS MOD, as you won't be able to use it. 3 new skins, (partly redrawn from stock) and their attendant decals are included. No aircraft or cockpit parts (lods, bmps/tga/jpg) are included, as they use all 'internal' bits pulled from the various game cat files (in a similiar fashion as the Panama Mirage IIIPN). The 3 skins "represent" some of the aspects of the "Forces of Good" from the LOTR series: Rohan1 = Shieldmaidens (a squadron of mostly female pilots!!!) Rohan2 = Riders of Rohan Gondor = Stewards of Gondor Each with a different fin-flash. Modifications to the base model include (but not limited to), addition of landing lights, correcting the positions of the taillights, activating the canopy via an manual animation key (use Shift/0 to open and close), massive upgrading of the avionics suite (included new jammers and CM dispensers). Other mods include the addition of a laser designator for prescision strike, new A-A & A-G radars, and many other 'hidden' changes. NOTE: most, if not all, of the weapons used are STOCK. With possibly 2 exceptions, and they're not presently used. As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs, to make it a LOT easier to install (read: drag and drop). Have fun with it!! I sure did, when building it!!

LOTR "The Evil Ones" MiGs SkinPak -- For SF2, any and all that have the 21MF & 23MF -- A Just for fun Pure Fantasy Mod (a What If... that's beyond belief) Yet another in the Series of "Things That Prove The Wrench Is Off His Meds"... This is, basically, a redecalling of the stock MiG-21MF and MiG-23MF, but with new insignia decals for the the main Antoganists from "The Lord of the Rings" Trilogy ©. We have: MiG-21MF "Isengard", for Saruman's forces * MiG-23MF "Morder", for Sauron's forces (*=how an Urik-hai is gonna fit in that little cockpit is beyond my understanding! Or if Sauron's Orcs are smart enough to fly a Flogger...) This mod also assumes that you've converted the AI MiGs into Player-Flyable units. If not, consult the SF/SF2 Knowledge Bases, and download Ordway's MiG cockpits. For those truely bent, these decals can easily be (re)used on any aircraft that suits your fancy, and where insignia decal positions are known. Just check the relevant aircraft's decals ini for positionings. As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions.

Resetting Control Map Back To Default
Wrench replied to firehawkordy's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Delete or rename the "Default.ini" in your /Controls folder. Also, check you don't have a AircraftObject.ini in the main /Objects folder from some old mods -- if not stock it tends to mess things up You will, of course, have to reset everything. (but you expected to do that anyways!) wrench kevin stein -

TextureList won't load !?
Wrench replied to Rapadelic's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
not a 3d guy. sorry and to be totally honest, dams/resivours are completly impossible to make "look" like they should, due to the internal heightfield of the terrrain (so are waterfalls, unless you count rivers that point straight down) been aaaalllllllllllllll through that with the Hwachon and Chosin resiviours in KAW (to say nothing of the Missiouri, Mississippi, Chicago and various and sundry rivers in the MidWestUSA) wrench kevin stein -
Cockpit sounds

Missing WW2 enemies in SF2
Wrench replied to ShrikeHawk's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
actually, for sf2, you don't need nations named in the terrain nations.ini; it really only exists to set the differing locations don't forget, you'll have to turn on LimitedNations=TRUE in the terrain's main ini (Tunisia.ini, NAfrica.ini, Palestine.ini, etc) wrench kevin stein -
Converting MSFS Planes to SF2
Wrench replied to liamp51's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I belive the correct answer is ... Impossible as they'e completly incompatable formats. If one has the source files (Max), like Razbam does, you can export to the SF/SF2 formats. Otherwise, nyet wrench kevin stein -
Missing WW2 enemies in SF2
Wrench replied to ShrikeHawk's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
how come I don't have any problems like this at all????* My 3 ww2 installs work EXACTLY the same in SF2 as they did in 1stGens 1) you should NEVER have to touch the aircraft data ini for any reason, other than to fix the f***ed up FMs 2) all the terrains work exactly as advertised (other than with the minor tweek to the data ini, as in the Tunisisa one attached above). None of the WW2 terrains mods I've done make use of the limited nations statments, nor limited/allowed mission types. do you have the proper Formatins.ini, with the ww2 settings? (gose in the /Flight folder, with the nations.ini). Try the attached Edit: have you adjusted the year spread in the Options ini?? That's an easly forgotten tweek wrench kevin stein *other than trashed FMs -

looking for some skin temples
Wrench replied to umm's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
templates for Dels' Hercs are, iirc, in the 1stGen downloads section somewhere. for the others, none exist that I've ever seen (unless TMF has one somewhere for the F.1) when a template in nonexistant, one has to build one from scratch. Not tooooooooooo, if one is used to working with multiple layers, just time consuming as all hell! (and I should know!!) wrench kevin stein -

Missing WW2 enemies in SF2
Wrench replied to ShrikeHawk's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
are you using the correct ww2 Nations.ini??? try the attached, below note: japanese naval airforces added, so all the appropriate aircraft of said service will need data ini editing wrench kevin stein REMEMBER: SEPERATE ww2 installs!!! Another Thing I forgot: you'll have to edit the Spit 9s data inis and user lists, as the start dete/year is WRONG for the Mk.9s -- should be 1943 (according to the SAM Modlers Datafile 'Merlin Powered Spitfires' -which is a GREAT book, BTW!) Also, remove the Soviet references -

Tunisia in SF2
Wrench replied to ShrikeHawk's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
it should look exactly the same. Remember, you SHOULD have a seperate, stand-alone mods folder for you MTO install, as there are theatre specific skin sets (as we discussed via PM) what differences are you see, specificially?? wrench kevin stein edit: don't forget, you can add this to the main ini, thereby eliminated ALL modern aircraft: [AllowedDates] StartDate=1939 EndDate=1946 -
Tunisia in SF2
Wrench replied to ShrikeHawk's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
ahhhumm...if you look, you might find it in the 1stGen terrains downloads section. however it IS for WW2 only, and not for use after 1945. wrench kevin stein -

you're missing tiles somehow....or screwed up the data ini. Make sure you have the full terrain, and all 100 tiles in the Tunisia folder looks fine for me try the attached data ini (screenie was taken with this) wrench kevin stein -
