Ww2 mods
Wrench replied to DEVIL11's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
they're scattered with EACH of the sub-sections of the Downloads. So, you'll be looking all over, but in specific areas (Aircraft, Skins, Ground Objects , etc) -
AI torpedo runs?
Wrench replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
did you order them to attack? Are you using the correct torpedo? Are the data inis fully updated to SF2NA standard? Because all mine (Beaufort, Beaufighter, TBM, B-25/PBJ, B-26, AD, etc) work fine -
I made a SimDashboard - control SF2 with a tablet
Wrench replied to Shousa's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
out of curiosity, why would this even be necessary? Everyone already has a keyboard for their computer, and 98.6% have a full HOTAS setup (throttle/stick) with hot keys/buttons already mapped? Please explain in more detail- 10 replies

B-2A Spirit (Version 0.90)
Wrench replied to FastCargo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
it's in the MissionData001.cat extract and place the lst in the /Flight folder in your mods folder. If you ain't got one, create it (the /Flight folder that is) -
FFR-41 Mave
Wrench replied to SimonMavrick's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Given the guy has 1 post, and no history of activity here, always raises a flag. This happens all the time; I've seen it all to often over the years. They disappear, never to be seen again, after uploading a questionable mod. The gods forbid that uploaders should follow site policy, and actually give a decent description of the item INCLUDING where the hell it comes from and who built it. Not necessary to post the entire readme (even IF they wrote one), but at least tell us the minimum requirements. I'm going to leave this up for a while, unless Erik says different, in the (vague) hopes this "person" responds in the correct manner.- 6 replies

Wrench replied to SimonMavrick's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
One hopes that this is NOT another ripped model from HAWX or similiar games. If so, it's gonna be gone, and the usual consequences will result. So, "SimonMaverick", the onus is on you the prove the origination of the mod. You have 48 hours to do so, then it will be removed. We have a no tolerance policy on piracy, as is clearly stated in several places, including the pinned post in this forum. thank you for your attention- 6 replies

Letting End Users (tm) know what theater they're for might be a good idea -

As a Californian, who's watched various parts of his state burn for, well pretty much all my life, I can sympathize with the Aussies. Look at what happened here all across the state in the last 2 years. In fact, some of our people are headed to Oz right now to assist. Counter fires (or "backfires" as they're called) are a standard procedure to create firebreaks and like you said, to eat the fuel on the battle line. All we can do at this point, is pray for rain (and if it's like SoCal here, subsquent flooding!!!) to slow it down. I wish them all the best of luck, and hope they stay safe

2020 Critical Update for every Terrain
Wrench replied to swambast's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
oh my f-king g*d!!!! the one I've been using all these years is from Major Lee, and I believe HE got it from the 3W sim "First Flight" (flying the Wright 03 FLyer). Of course, I'll still use the old one for various countries (Falafal King in the Mid-East, or on the Vietnam 48 map -see below) OUTSTANDING!! DA, are you sure it was bombed from above, or destroyed via an "internal" explosion of escaping gasses??? -
SF2 RA-5C Vigilante Pack v.2
Wrench posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
View File SF2 RA-5C Vigilante Pack v.2 SF2 RA-5C Vigilante Pack v.2 9/27/2019 -For SF2, Any and All (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended) This is a revamp of Julhiem's RA-5C "Vigilante" carrier based recon aircraft. It has has several updates/upgrades/changes to make it more SF2 compliant. This is the complete aircraft, with everything included. If you have any earlier version(s) it is suggested you delete BOTH the aircaft and decals subfolders, as this version replaces them it toto. Or at least, remove or store them elsewhere. The aircraft comes with 6 skins, including the original released single skin. These skins are: RVAH-1 'Smokin' Tigers (USS Independence 1965, CVW-7, SEA, first combat cruise) RVAH-5 'Savage Sons' (USS Ranger CVW? 19??) ** RVAH-6 'Fleurs' (USS Kittyhawk 1971, CVW-11 SEA) RVAH-7 'Peacemakers' (USS Ranger, 1978/79, WesPac, Squadron's Final Cruise) RVAH-9 'Hoot Owls' (USS Saratoga 1967, CVW-3 Med cruise) RVAH-11 'Checkertails' (USS constellation, CVW-9 SEA 1971/72) **= original release skin Almost all markings are decals, excepting some painted-on squadron insignia. Serial/BuNums are 100% historically accurate (by unit) Decal randomization is TRUE. Skins remain in bmp format, as they're not that large. The SF2 "date switch" is active. The canopy opens/closes with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero). As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. See "Notes" for list of changes. If there's anything missing or "off", please let me know and I'll try to find it. This mod got lost in the shuffle with several other large projects. Happy Landings!

French Indochina war

Adding a new pilot
Wrench replied to GKABS's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
now that's cool!!! One of the existing helo pilots (also used on the original release of the OV-10) is Dave's face (USAFMTL) I assume you have the ***.ini, ***.lod and ***.bmp (skin). once those are done, it's just entering the name into an aircraft's data ini. As the guy that helped bring the mega pilot's pack with skins by Pappychksix in the early 2000s, It's pretty easy -

WIP Mega THREAD!
Wrench replied to ErikGen's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
a surprise WIP from angelp. Still a long way off, but has much promise! Reusing the decals from my old DAT Boston mod. There's a gun-nosed A-20G in the works (also reusing my decals from the ETO Havoc). It looks really good close up; i've sent him over 300 megs of e-books on the Havoc. So, it's gonna be done right! Been begging for a new one for years.... -

The B-45, iirc, was from one of the South American groups. I actually have his max files archived on one of my externals (i hope!). I just don't remember the dude's name!!
