My next terrain project
Wrench replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
such a huge map exists. the "million meter terrain" or something like that, in the 1stGen downloads. It was never really completed, or worked on much found it: There's also Baltika's & my unfinished China/Burma/India theatre map for WW2. Goes from central India, east to Hong Kong, north (almost) to central China and south to Indonesia. So, yes extensive landscaping is possible. It's when you get beyond a certain latitude north or south that things get weird due to planetary curvature -

Standard maps, and many of the add-ons are 63% of Real Life (tm). That's been a discussion point since 2003!! IIRC, we "assumed" (oh! that word!!) it's the difference between a stature mile and a killometer.

how about your computer specs???? Maybe you're running out of memory? Power supply issues? Overheating??? It ain't always what you see, it can be what's inside. -

WIP Mega THREAD!

Right. I'm going to do something I usually never do (don't). I'm asking for help in doing an SEA 3 tone camo for the EC-121R "Bat Cats". As you can see from the images below, I made a total hash of it! I was never very good at getting the matching right and left sides!!! I have partial templates for the Connie, and the entire aircraft would be sent whom ever volunteers for this. I just need the paint job, I can easily handle the decaling!! (duh!!) Basiclly, the bird is for Vietnam Eye Candy (tm). But it will look good on the parking ramp and NKP or Than Son Nuht! (on either the stock VNSEA or DRV!!!) Thanks in advance!!! -
A-4AR Revamp?
Wrench replied to TheF18Lover's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
And asking in the Spanish language forum would be a good idea as well. I know the boys have been reworking or making some new stuff for that part of the world. -
Nice. I'd suggest special renaming of the folders (like I did with their T-28). For the folder name(s) instead of having the full, long form use F-15C_y and F-15E_y as that completely seperates them from the 3W and aftermarket units. Do the same for the decals folders, and rewrite the decals inis changing the pathway pointers. Completly removed ANY chance of someone screwing up their installation. In the aircraft's main ini, change the displayed name to reflect the changes. From this AircraftFullName=F-15C Eagle Squadrons to AircraftFullName=F-15C Eagle (Y) Also, its a lotta bit "bloated". The F-15C and F-15E have over 60 megs each of 5 extra skin maps in the MAIN aircraft folder. As they're not specular or bump maps, they should either be converted to jpg. It would reduce the package size considerably! Of course, these are just suggetions...

I'm gonna take a stab, even without a translator ... "Where can I get the airplane?" Well, sorry to say you'll have to check with the Dev A=Team site. and good luck with that. ===== it's not like it would be hard to (re)make this skin for Florian's Orion. The template is readily available. One would just have to make the proper decals

Wrench replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Screen Shots
Even though it's a WW2 bird, this was taken in Southeast Asia, in the 1962. I call it 'Sunshine On My Shoulders' (the angle was almost perfect, just needed a little repositioning of the camera) -
That's all well and good, but a great majority of people (myself included), don't have access to the site that HAS the Bf.110s. Just so you know, anything that DAT is equivlant to "he who is not to be named" (like Cthulhu )

Don't worry about the email thing; it's been left up to make sure (mostly) everyone sees it. Hope things are getting better!!
