Wrench

have you tried unplugging the keyboard, and letting the OS "find" it again, and reload it's drivers?

can't you upload some things here???

ALVIN!!!!!

(found this while doing some major housecleaning here. working on some improvements)

Surely, there must be someone in their offices that speaks English???

that would be great Russ!!! That's really all it's been missing; That would allow the NA game coding to park them on the ship (after I  change the "CarrierParkingSpan=" statement.

Those inner wing sections (when exposed on folding would need meshing and mapping, but you knew that already! I'd just map those to a seperate sheet, as to not change the main aircraft skins.

thanks Russ

I can do the "basic" NM, but I'll need someone to do the late-model 3-tone. Decals wont be a problem

soundlist.ini is the the FlightData cat. after extraction, it goes in the mod folder's /Flight folder. :)

You know I showed a H model around the end of last year, right? Russo has it, and I'm trying to get him to finish it off, in between his personal projects. I was going to ask YOU to do the skinning on it, as I'm up to my ass in the 1st Indochina War mod. We've known each other for a long time. I have a great deal of respect for you and your work (see the other thread).

We don't have to get people to boycott his site; he does it to himself. This Satruday evening I got a PM from a member here, who had just got banned from there earlier in the day.

We, Erik, other modders and Admins here, have tried over and over again to get him to rejoin the mainstream community. He dosen't want to. There are so many people that we, the Admin staff have to keep answering the same question "where is such and such?". We're just too damn tired of it.

As I mentioned in the other thread, we ARE working on a solution. Just be paitent

Only if you're able to download from Capun's site.

you do know we have an FJ-2 & 3, they may not have folding wings, but they're freely available to EVERYONE

ships are a nightmare, as that ability only came out with NA. Some of the (very much!) you might be able to get away with one or two; like on the island or flight deck. Depends on how many meshes the modeler built.

sorry, no. i'm not that big an FE2 player, and really haven't modded the game at all!

at least 500 gigs. never have actually sat down and figured to total

the original plan was 1945-1955, for the 1st Indochina war (well, that was my original plan, at least!). The Vitnam48 map will be seperate from the "standard" VietnamSEA map. It appears that, yes, 2 era specific version will most likely be appearing. the 1956-75 (ish) will replace the stock map, with a huge upgrade in targeting (like, all the fracking railroads!!!) Which means the original campaigns (all the stock ones) will get boned.

I have always found it odd the VPAF never had the -15 (other than the UTI). Of course, given WHEN it actually formed, the 17 was a better choice

torno: are you all building a new Wessex? I hope so. Cause, the only other one is Capun, and no longer available to the General Community (tm)

somewhere around (or soon after) 1959, the VPAF started with some transport aircraft.  No.919 Transport regiment had a gaggle of AN-2, Li-2 and IL-14.

These are not what ifs, but real(ish)

Here's a Li-1 "cab" from Paulo's Li-2 shin pak

This is a rather generic looking Il-14 'Crate'. I found no information, other then the regiment, no picutres not a thing! ANd I can't find my copy of the Red Star book on the Crate that I used when Veltro built it!! So, it has stock 3W VPAF serials.

My Tigermoth templates were NOT as complete as I first thought, so I had to finish off redoing all the lines

I took Lloyd's Vichy TM, and simply painted out the single number, and gate it 18 "plane-in-squad" decals. A simple, if probably NOT historycally accurate fix. I may load this as an update, if it's waranted.

Menrva sent me a link to the 2 real TMs taht Boa Dai had, and became the first aircarft of the Viet Minh. But, I'd already done this one. Standard "day camo" over silver dope. 18 generic numbers

More into the What If... since Mao is already sending help in the form of the Yak-9s, why would they neglect the strike/assault elements? Here's an IL-10 from the "10th Volunteer Assault Regiment" (or whatever!! :)  )

I see I have to change the tail code; I went the "traditional" method of individual letters. Easy fix.

I (re)used the stock Matra 155s, renamed and created a A-A rocket (like I did for the Scorpions) from the 68mm SNEB. 

The sites I saw for the 26N said 8 aircraft converted. I used generic serial, except for 2 seen in a photo, and another a profile. Easy enough to make new decals of the serials listed above. Left the wing guns in place, as we don't have a dual-50 cal gun pod. 

this is just one of those "make do" projects, while I'm waiting for the Vietnam 48 to be fixed by Menrva. It will, however, BE release when I'm (more or less) satisfied with it. Don't know how it'll be used in game...with no proper NW Africa terrain..sigh.

this is a GREAT help!!!

I'm trying to find the actual squadron name for the AdA unit, ECN I/71. It was a night fighter unit in the late 1950s. I know AdA units were named after provinces or colonies, but can't find much of anything on this one.

Also, looking for info on the Matra 122 air-to-air unguided rocket pod. What little i've found seems to point it's just the same as the 155 pod (looks and amount of rockets carried). Making the a-a rocket isn't a big deal ... same specs as I used for those on the Scorpions.

thanks in advance

Fishbeds never carried those. 

maybe a GP-9 would be more along the lines???

time is in seconds

don't remember ASMs, but when placed "close enough", they will engage with their gun batteries. (reference: one of the patch levels of NA, placed oppossing fleets within a few kms of each other ... was fun to try and launch from the carrier while under fire from enemy surface ships!!!)

in theory, and the viewpoint is placed high enough, ASMs should have no real problems

hmmm.... how odd is it then, that I have Veltro's YF-12A "Starduster", with my skin, decal and ini upgrades sitting right here in my SF2 mods folder???

the other you're thinking of is the TMF A-12 Avenger, also upgraded by me
