Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza.

the vehicle's userlist and the terrains' limited nations list doesn't effect that?? (something I've never thought about!!) -
TW or mod F-4 Phantoms?
Wrench replied to Chugster's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
q 1) yes q 2) also a yes, problem is, the TMF one is really excellent. the extending nose gear for RN carrier launches iirc, is NOT on the 3W version. Not that it would make any difference anyway. the advantage if buying the 3w phantoms, is they're all (and I mean ALL) mapped identically -- with very little fiddling, skins can be swapped around. now, if i remember correctly --- and hopefully Crusader or Sundowner will drop in to confirm or correct me -- back around 2005-ish, the MAX files for the 3W phantoms got leaked to the public. If'n i remember the story correctly, the 3W guys basicly said 'ah, well, fuck it' And TMF got a copy of it, so they're based of the original. But they a exceptional products. -

SF2 Hawaii/Northern Pacific Terrain, Modern (v.2) 9/5/2020 - For SF2, Any & All (Full-5 Merged, + Expansion Paks REQUIRED!!!) This is a rebuild of the WW2 Hawaiian Islands terrain into a more "modern" version (1950s and later). This is NOT a WW2 version; it is for post-war into modern times. Do NOT use this in your WW2 PTO mods folder!! You must also have SF2NA are part of you merged installs. This was built and tested in the NA environment. You may experience longer than normal loading times due to the number of terrain objects. It should be noted, due to the inherent scaling issue in the SF series, objects placed herein are, for the most part, representative of their Real World counterparts. See "Notes" for more information. When in game, on the Terrain Selection drop-down, you'll see: Hawaii (Modern) Even though the folder remains in it's original name of just "Hawaii". As is recommended, unzip this archive to a temp folder or your desktop, and you'll have access to the rest of the readme for it's instructions. It's recommended you -read- the document through after unzipping, but =BEFORE= installing. As always, the "Notes and Other Nonsense" section may make for entertaining reading. Down in that section is a list of required ships that you're going to need!! I've supplied SOME items, but you End Users (tm) are responsible for all the rest. !!PLEASE!!! read the "Notes" section for more more detailed explainations of this terrain, and it's limitations. Good Hunting! Wrench Kevin Stein -

No folding wings on those, iirc. So, any set parking slots for deck will be far too small. Just eye candy ... i wouldn't sweat it -

It's also exceedingly random in choosing Red Side. Based upon availability, exported yes/no, users (like EJ said) and general chaos theory <gr> -

SF2 Hawaii/Northern Pacific Terrain, Modern (v.2)
Wrench replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
I forgot to mention in the read-me, that I REALLY recommend using the free-camera view, and 'vist' the Arizona Memorial. You can 'fly' through the entrance, into the 3 rooms. In the last room, the shrine, you can read the names of the fallen on the wall. We've never had ANYTHING even remotely like this in any of the SF games*, and I can't thank Swambast enough for taking the time to build it. *including FastCargo's Gateway Arch in St.Louis in the Mid-West USA map -

It's a pity you missed the "All In One Package" TK offered earlier this year. It was $100 USD, and had EVERYTHING!! All 5 games, both Expansions Pack and ALL the DLCs. It was most def worth the money. Well, water under the bridge as they say. Mabye he'll offer it again in the future?? TK you listening?? Maybe at Christmas time???? (hint hint! wink wink, nudge nudge)
