DLC data.ini locked ?
JSF_Aggie replied to ravenclaw_007's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Look in the .DLC files, not the .CAT files. They are in the DLC folder at the top level, C:\Program Files (x86)\ThirdWire\Strike Fighters 2\DLC, for example. You also need one of the newer cat extractors from Thirdwire. The older versions won't open .DLC. -

a request for the Desert Terrain
JSF_Aggie replied to daddyairplanes's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
There are three small desert strips added to the desert terrain in my old Harrier Campaign. It's in the SF1 download section. They're to small for an A-4 to take off from. There's the harrier FOB's in the ODS terrain you can use. It's just adding the object types to the terrain's _TYPES.INI and placing them via the terrain's _TARGETS.INI. For airfields, you'll need to place them on flat areas of the terrain. -
F-104C Pack
JSF_Aggie replied to Spillone104's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
There's a mismatch between the fuel tanks included for the C SEA, and the _data.INI and _loadout.INI entries. Fuel tanks are Tank195F-104_SEA_camo and the .INI entries are Tank195F-104_SEAcamo. The .INI's are missing a "_". -
May 2012 patch
JSF_Aggie replied to Sundowner's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Well, my first guess would have been mission types assigned. However, I've just went 3 missions in with VF-154 and had no problems. I didn't fly them to completion, just flew in AP for a few minutes, ended, then started the next. -
May 2012 patch

I'm 5 missions in to a LB II campaign with VA-37 and have no problems. The carriers are there every time. What squadron are you trying? -

AV-8A In North Atlantic Campaign
JSF_Aggie posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
Here's the modified campaign files to get the Harrier aboard the LHA in the campaign. You need Wrench's AV-8A and my LHA mod as well. I've only been assigned STRIKE missions so far, which are difficult in the AV-8A. Anyone notice that all but one of the US ground forces start aboard the ships in the Marine Amphibious Group? Anyone play the campaign long enough to see them "land"? I'm hoping at some point to start getting CAS or ARMED RECON. If so, maybe just back up the AV-8A's campaign start date. I haven't tried yet, but it looks like you can assign multiple carriers to a single strike group. AV8A_NA_Campaign.rar -

Desert Storm Part 1 For SF2
JSF_Aggie replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
I think that's a side effect of fubar's water shader. I see the same on the sea/land transition tiles of other terrains that I use his shader. Still worth it though. -
Carrier Operations II
JSF_Aggie replied to paulopanz's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Colmack, Read through the description txt for my LHA mod... http://combatace.com/files/file/12751-lha-mod-for-stock-sf2na-version/ Do the CarrierParkSpan trick, and make sure your NATIONS match, that's as close as you can get as far as specifying a specific aircraft, at least best I can figure out. I'm surprised you saw a USMC aircraft on a Italian carrier, unless the carrier is set to USMC, or your running with a .MSN file that has a battle group called out as USMC. -
German Highway airstrips

I can look at it tonight too. I use to keep the _targets.ini changes current with each patch, but maybe I'm behind. -

LHA mod for stock SF2NA version
JSF_Aggie replied to JSF_Aggie's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Are you having problems with the Ark Royal, or the LHA? If it's the LHA, try this mission. I have at least two parked harriers every time. I have a merged install, but at the moment, my only mods are Wrench's AV-8B, followed by this LHA mod. ********************** Squid, if you have a helo installed, belonging to USMC, and with the carrier=true and parkingspan variables, it would show up. The downside is there appears to be no way to define multiple parking spans for a single ship's parking, so you have no way to place the helos in a certain spot, and the harriers in another.
