This pak updates the existing Venom FB Mk.4 to the latest patch standards. I've adjusted the decal positions, level numbers, and created a full pak of serial numbers. -- this is NOT a new skin; it re-uses the original bmps, just a tweek of the existing one. New damage tgas are also included. This pak also includes updated data and loadout inis to add the missing drop tanks. All weapons loads are UK nation specific, as per the latest weapons pak. -- you MUST have the latest Weapons Pak installed for use the the weapons listed. Also included is a mod of Kesselbrut's Spitfire cockpit, as this has a nice 'British' feel to it. Several of the gauges have been relabeled for jet use. Cockpit ini is included. (this cockpit is also used on my WW2 Vampire mod) -note: this pit is NOT 100% historically accurate, but is a 'best fit' for the aircraft. Gunsight mods have been included. PLEASE -- READ THE ENCLOSED README for full instructions and notes!!!! -- PLEASE!! Good Hunting & Happy Landings ! Wrench Kevin Stein -
Question about adding RWR to F-100 Hun
Wrench replied to smg13's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
They never had a display, but you can add an audo=only one super easy. note: if cetrain files are not to be found in the usual places, they'll need to be extracted from the objects.cat 1) copy/paste the rwr bmp from the F-4E (F-4E.RWR.bmp) into the Hun's /cockpit folder. 2) add these lines to the F-100D.ini: AvionicsDLL=Avionics60.dll AvionicsDataFilename=F-100D_AVIONICS.INI 3) copy the information below to a blank 'notepad': [TextureData] RWRTexture=cockpit\f-4e_rwr.bmp [RWR] Type=3_RING AirSearchTexture=RWRair1.tga AirTrackTexture=RWRair2.tga AirLockTexture=RWRair2.tga GroundSearchTexture=RWRground1.tga GroundTrackTexture=RWRground2.tga GroundLockTexture=RWRground2.tga SearchPosition=0.90 TrackPosition=0.55 LockPosition=0.15 SearchSize=0.075 TrackSize=0.075 LockSize=0.075 SearchFlash=FALSE TrackFlash=TRUE TrackFlashRate=0.2 LockFlash=TRUE LockFlashRate=0.1 TrackSound=RWRTrackSound.wav LockSound=RWRLockSound.wav [RWRTrackSound] Priority=HIGH 3DSound=FALSE Looped=TRUE NumBuffers=1 [RWRLockSound] Priority=HIGH 3DSound=FALSE Looped=TRUE NumBuffers=1 "save as.." F-100D_AVIONICS.INI and place in the Hun's main folder with the other inis. this will give you a working audio only rwr. btw, this is already done on my IDF F-100D mod available here at CA and at my site. If you wanted to break history, you'd need to find the exact node name for the clock in the cockpit.lod, and do a little editing in the Hun's cockpit ini. I would be similiar to the RWR fix for the Intruders, that's show over at C5s site. Wrench Kevin Stein -

Lobo's A1H Marine skins
Wrench replied to charlielima's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
It might be that you've 'run out of decals'. Meaning, these birds are 'after' the last number listed in your number.lst. Check on the loading screen before mission start, and open the aircraft number drop down and see where it's sitting on the list. I have most of the decal positions plotted in the AD-4 and BT2D mods I did. Take a look at those decal inis and see if there's anyting in there to help you. Also, don't forget the aircraft is mapped "one sided", ie everything is mirrored right/left and top/bottom. One way to open it up for more decals is paint the stars on the fuselage (makes things a tad easier) Wrench Kevin STein -
Lobo's A1H Marine skins
Wrench replied to charlielima's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Those are definately mapped to Monty's A-1H. I checked them against my AD-4 skins, they're the same names and mapping. You might need to create a texture set ini based off the skin data in the read me's. I think that skin pak is pre-patch 3, so I might need one. Wrench Kevin Stein -

File Name: WW2 Damage Tgas File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 25 Dec 2006 File Category: SF WW2/Korea until 1959 Aircraft Skins This is the first of several packages aimed at giving many of the older WW2 birds some 'bullet holes' when they get hit.

If you have them, this set is for you. If not, you have my apologies. Also included is a repainted stock seat for pilot usage, and instruction on how to add it; complete with the data to be added to the aircrafts data ini.

A few redone ground textures..to test
Wrench replied to bortdafarm's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
The destroyed truck is a "ground object", found the the ww1verdun.cat. Look in the types and targets inis, there's a listing/mention of 'debris' of several types (destroyed buildings, etc). I used it when creating this 'secret target area' (the bunkers were imported from SF, and repainted to kinda match the terrain) the destroyed truks also added via the type/targets ini Wrench Kevin Stein -
What happened to Capun's site?
Wrench replied to scrapper's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The site's still there, just requires a new registration procedure to gain access to the d/ls. I 'assuming' that an email to Capun, with the request for registration would probably be in order. Wrench Kevin Stein -

Adding "invisible" laser pod

Adding "invisible" laser pod
Wrench replied to Voyager's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Yes, the FLIR/LD target box disappears with the dropping or firing of the last weapon (Mav, LGBs, etc). I personally don't know why, but I suspect it's something hard coded in one of the dlls. I "think" it may be that your view is from the weapons seeker head, and when the last on is gone, so is your view. Anyone more knowledgeable want to weigh in on this to confirm or deny?? :) It would be VERY nice to have the LANTIRN/FLIR stay active like in real life....maybe when the avionics80.dll comes out in a patch to be yet created/???

Adding "invisible" laser pod
Wrench replied to Voyager's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Super easy way to do it. This is "borrowed" as an example from Dels very fun F-23 Black Widow. Open the data.ini, and scroll down to either the FUSELAGE, or I reccomend the NOSE section. At the bottom you'll see the "SystemName=" callouts. Using the next number in sequence (ie: SystemName{005}=, SystemName{006}= , add the following SystemName[***]=LaserDesignator Add this section at the bottom of the weapons: [LASERDESIGNATOR] SystemType=LASER_DESIGNATOR CameraFOV=2.500000 CameraPosition=0.000000,9.500000,-0.650000 CameraYaw=0.000000 CameraPitch=0.000000 CameraRoll=0.000000 PaveTackNarrow.tga EODisplayFlags=268501249 SeekerRange=27.000000 SeekerGimbleLimit=120.000000 SearchTexture=PaveTackNarrow.tga SightTexture=avq23sight1.tga Save and close. This will give you a built in LD without the loss of a hardpiont. It's a bit of a cheat, but what the hell, it works just fine!! :) With thanks to Dels for discovering this! Wrench Kevin Stein -
