Mig 17 question
Wrench replied to Wodin's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
the Fresco-A and C both carry (stock, rightoutofthebox) 2 23mm and 1 37mm. If you're missing the guns, start looking for a /Guns folder, if a weapons pak has been added. They should ALWAYS be using their stock stuff, regardless if a WePak has been added or not. Double check the data inis for both aircraft, and make sure the //Guns----- section is still there otherwise, a reinstall of the game may be necessary. wrench kevin stein -

especially in regards to the 5COA as delivered to Columbia (and not the upgraded versions later on)... As I can't seem to find any real information, webcrawling.. what, if any, type of radar was it equipped with? Something similiar to the Cyrano in the MirageIII, or a ground-mapping only, or what??? (this'll help figure out which cockpit to use) TIA! wrench kevin stein

Problem CAT Extractor
Wrench replied to tor's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Interesting...considering the A-4B Skyhawk dosen't COME with WoI.... Your other problems are: 1) NEVER EVER install 1stGen 3W games to any of the /Progam Files folders. They are protected in Vista/Win7, and you won't be able to work with ANY files in that zone. Only in XP can you safely install to the /Program Files folders. 2) To fix that, you can just move the entire folder (judging by the path name, Wings Over Israel), UP to the root of the C Drive. The new path/loction would be: C:\Wings Over Israel adjust your shortcut accordingly. 3) Assuming that you're using Skypats' Cat extractor, it also don't work that well in Vista/7 when placed in the /Progarm Files. What you need to do, is create a folder on your Desktop, call it "Cat Extractor", and put all the files from Skypat's Extractor in there. This is the pathway for mine, so your's will be named different: C:\Users\kevin\Desktop\SF-Wo-Extractor Don't forget to set the compatability to Windows 95. From that location, you'll be able to start the extractor, then use it's 'navigation pane' to locate the cat that has the file you want to extract. Extracted files, when pulled what that tool, will 'appear' in the game folder associated with them (ie: things from the /FlightData.cat will be in the /Flight folder; things from the Object.Cat, will be in the /Objects folder. From there you can move them, if for an aircraft, or edit in-place (for anything other than aircraft. BTW, this is all covered someplace in the Knowledge Base; I just don't remember exactly where ATM!! good luck! wrench kevin stein -

the Beaus used the Mk II or maybe the Mk III gunsights ... they were pretty much 'fixed' in place.

SF2 Screenshot Thread
Wrench replied to Stary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
no room for Megis; it's closed anyway. (iirc, it'd be about where the bow of that ore carrier is on the left) Midway and O'Hare are BOTH there, just not in their geographicly correct locations (tiling issues and the inherent scaling issues), so they're both just outside the city limits. Yet another reason to hate this tileset...even though I made over 2 dozen new tiles to fill in blanks that were left out of the original set. can't wait to finish this map..... wrench kevin stein
