AIM-4F Super Falcon
Wrench replied to ravenclaw_007's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion

Task Force Ships spawning on land in Desert Storm Terrain
Wrench replied to TheStig's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
No, you don't want to do that. The 3rdWire Terrain Editor is for beyond Expert Level users. It's NOT user friendly at all!! And actually, it in how the terrain's _water bmp is read by the engine, and if said water bmp is formated correctly with the proper CV stations (in the right colors*), and the terrain has the proper statements for CV usage. Also, making sure you're using said terrains in the SF2NA environmet. Even with the game's full merging, NA seems to have the best coding for CVs *someing about "how many bits' the bmp is saved as -

Which SF2 versions...
Wrench replied to daddyairplanes's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
but as most (if not all) people are running multi merged installs, so _78 is the actual last, both for the F-4D and F-4E (not including the Kurnass, with is 73, 75, 78, and the BLW F-4F with adds an _80) ALL stock -
How do I increase the general world draw distance?
Wrench replied to Funnyman's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Draw distance had a huge discussion some years ago (I'd suggest doing a search in both the SF1 and SF2 forums). But none of that is usable anymore, and SF2 has things 'locked down' (iirc) to a certain distance. So, no I don't believe it can be changed anymore. Also, don't forget, we're acutally using a 1990 based engine, so don't expect DCS level graphics -
Do stock planes have extra animations?
Wrench replied to Funnyman's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
The answer is NO. There are No animations, for player flyable aircraft set at the factory for use by the player. Oddly, OTH, if you make the B57/Canberras, Beagle, B-52 flyable, you can open and close the bombay. But, again, all animations MUST be added to you control ini, and always need to be cross checked via the aircraft data ini -
My next terrain project
Wrench replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
this is the old, SF1 original version (not fully updated to SF2, but easily done). There's also a couple of fixes in the SF2 Terrains section that give in minor upgrades Use it as a base, if you want -

It has a "mist" function!!!! LOL!!! -
Do stock planes have extra animations?
Wrench replied to Funnyman's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
there's a total of 10 animation slots available. Not all aircraft use them; all STOCK birds do NOT have a lot of manualy (ie: player) controled animations without going into the data ini and adding them (they're already there, mostly, just not turned on). AI onlys usually don't, other than canopies. But as they AI -- not needed unless made Player Flyable (tm) Long story story short -- ain't worth messing with -
My next terrain project
Wrench replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Yeah, it's part of the "DestroyedShipEffect". Does the same anyplace there's water, and a boat sinks. Unfortunately, it's not burning, like one see in "Atlantic Fleet" -

SF2 Avionics Community Pack - - Alpha release v0.3
Wrench replied to Eagle114th's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
should be in the most recent (well, several years old ....) Scorpion packages. If not, I'll go through my mod fiddlers and find the specific one (it station specific for ONLY the 89s) EDIT: in this pack -
SF2 Avionics Community Pack - - Alpha release v0.3
Wrench replied to Eagle114th's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Why not just use the rockets I built for 89s? They have no drop, as they have a sustainer (cheat!!) and fly pretty straight with the stock gunsight. They act like bullets, and can actully hit a bomber sized target. Just my thoughts! (you're doing a hellava good job with these!! keep it up!) -
WIP Mega THREAD!
Wrench replied to ErikGen's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion

Wrench replied to Eagle114th's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
why would you need rocket depression for air-to-air rockets??? Scorpions did NOT have a ground attack function.
