Guilty as charged... "a kill is a kill" wrench kevin stein

as the issue will be pretty much only on the sea/land transition tiles, try the Black Painted HM bmps, available (someplace!) in the d/l sections -- check under Terrains. And set the HMS= to 2.0000 Old problem, induced by the 08 patch. There was a LOT of discussion on it at the time, and there should be some fixes posted in the KB thread "Things You Need To Update" wrench kevin stein

that's an Options.ini edit ... covered a LOT times all over the place: [singleMission] AircraftType=MIG-21MF Service=Soviet MissionMap=BOWL MissionType=CAP MissionTime=NOON MissionWeather=SCATTERED AirActivity=HEAVY AirDefenseActivity=HEAVY FlyAll=FALSE LoadMission=TRUE LoadMissionFilename=C:\Users\kevin\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2\Missions\targets test 1 Cuba-Commie.MSN MissionDate=1973 StartYear=0 EndYear=2050 <--change here EditMission=FALSE ------------------------------------ The Intruders should be using the stock lods .. unless they've got 1stGen lods in package. Have you checked the SF2V A-6?? wrench kevin stein

known issue with the pit1 terrain object extract the pit1.ini from any of the terrain cats, and turn OFF the shadow statement (or use the pit1.ini from any of my terrains) Thusly: [shadow] CastShadow=FALSE ShadowCastDist=500 MaxVisibleDistance=2000 wrench kevin stein

No. Not with going to SF2, and building a completly seperate install based on ChampionVA56s EXCELLENT Mesclaro range. that's just how it is, and has been since The Range was released in 2003-ish wrench kevin stein

.....and the crowd goes wild!!! wrench kevin stein

AHA!!!!! I'll go looking for it ... it's needed for Cuba, too!!! (or, can you just shoot it to me???) thanks D!! (the fun part starts, when placing it, and getting the launchers to face their correct headings -more or less!) wrench kevin stein

prolly S-99s (before they ran out of Daimler engines) wrench kevin stein

there isn't one. Fubs made one a year or so ago, but it has Zbuffer issues, and has never been released because of that. wrench kevin stein

See above but, if you insist on commiting suicide... copy/paste the text below into Range_targets.ini, Where *** is the next number in sequence

because there aren't any ... one must make them themselves. Time consuming, but doable. wrench kevin stein

They were left off on purpose. wrench kevin stein

you're tga is either a) too large or b) (and more likely) has a defect in the alpha channel or c) (less likely) more than 3 decals on the mesh a screenshot would be of TREMENDOUS help in nailing down the diagnosis Make sure that 1) your "background" image is square -- ALL decals in 3W sims MUST be square (128/128, 512/512, etc) 2) make sure you have AT MINIMUM a 5 pixel 'clear zone' around the central image 3) make sure you're saving the image as a 32bit tga (24bit + 8bit Alpha) there's several tutorials around here on decal creation ... inculuding TKs original from 2003 ... i don't rememember where exacatly they are, so you'll have to search for them btw, in the all the ObjectCats, you'll find 3 digit "GermanNum***.tga" (albeit it black and only numbering 100-199 -and most likely WEST German...), but those should give you a basic idea for the size/etc for DDR Borts wrench kevin stein

misnamed bmp or misnamed in the LOD. Like Frank said, you'll need a hexeidtor to fix the LOD, or just rename the bmp to match what the LOD calls for wrench kevin stein

parkbrich klein (sp?) from Gepard's Euro/WarPac airfields is a nice flat slab 100x50 meters. (makes a nice helo landing/parking area) HOWEVER ... like the 3 concrete_plattes from The Factory Place, they are a completel "flatobject", and need to be placed ONLY in regions taht are already flat, OR that get flattened via the Terrain Editors "Level Airfield" function and, like PB said, ther's a ZBuffer issue since the last patch that causes some visual oddities.... wrench kevin stein

It's "ASW" (as in American SouthWest -even though, traditionally, that would be more Arizona/New Mexico than SW Texas). Both ASW and India-Pak do NOT make use of limited/allowed mission statments ... something's wrong with aircraft and/or game install. No problems at this end; my stuff gets tested to destruction, and beyond. Maybe a delete/reinstall of the modfolder may be necessary? wrench kevin stein

It uses the same Sabre cockpit we've been using since Zur (the Great and Powerful) released it years ago. The only changes are to the avinoics ini, adding the radar ranging gunsight. (an SF2 only thing). You might have to adjus the landing gear's rolling radi; SF2 seem to read "center of the lod as being lower", making need for some adjustments. Otherwise, it's pretty much the same as it ever was wrench kevin stein

. wrench kevin stein

Specificaly, WHICH terrain??? 'Cause as of the 08 patch, and continuing into SF2, you can limit the types of missions flown ON that terrain, regardless of what the aircraft's data ini says Have you looked at the terrains main ini, for the AllowedMissionTypes= statements??? A little more information here would be of great assistence... wrench kevin stein

For TOD objects; trees and buildings, require a higher SolidObject and AlphaObject count (AFAIK) wrench kevin stein

ok, NOW it's clear to me!! Well thought out!!! .. usually, for WhatIfs, one just 'shoehorns' in whatever seems to work, for a given time period. Whereas, the SAN Mirage is loosly based off what the Paki's did to their Mir3s and 5s (using what's already in game due to laziness, although heavily researched on the PAF versions) As the Once (and maybe again Future) King of What If..I couldn't AGREE more!!! "If so-and-so chooses to use this-or-that, how would it be made to work" The very essence of historicaly accurate "What Ifs". My compliments, sir!! wrench kevin stein

LOTS of smoke. Personally, I'd leave it alone. But that's me, as kinda like my guns realistic wrench kevin stein

all this radar running around has been taken care of in my aformentioned Panamanian ROSE1 Mirage (albeit, for the 90s - one could easily remove the HUD statements from the avionics ini, and rewrite it for a simplified, pre-HUD style, late 70s maybe; it that's a choice) Y'all are working WAY too hard for a "What Ifer..." (why do you think I use ALL stock, in-game items, right down to the CorsairIIs pit??) wrench kevin stein

look in the SF2/Aircraft downloads section .. I rereleased one a month or two ago. You'll have to move the decals sub-folder BACK into the skin folder, but the back-conversion work should minimal. HOwever, you won't be able to take advantage of the radar-ranging gunsight, as that's an SF2 only thing http://combatace.com/files/file/11593-raaf-cac-sabre-mk32/ wrench kevin stein

and commenting out the GunFireEffect= and TracerTexture= ...would do...???? think about it wrench kevin stein
