Max Number Of Objects in .TOD?
JSF_Aggie replied to JSF_Aggie's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I haven't had any TE aborts, I just don't get objects much beyond 1,000 showing up in game. I thought about that Russ, just wasn't sure how it would workout on mountainous terrain. I was going to look at Stary's stuff, and see if I can steal any ideas. -
Floating .TOD Object Problem
JSF_Aggie posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I decided to place some trees/objects on my SWUS terrain, and I'm having an issue with them floating on the northern half of the map. This is a single object, placed on a single tile (sand1). There is no HeightMap/HeightMapScale associated with this tile in the SWUS_data.INI. In the southern half they sit right on the ground. In the northern half, they float. Anyone have any ideas? I was about to start making .TOD's for the whole map, but not if the objects are floating. Thanks -

That was it. My ZBufferOffset under AlphaObject was 2.0. I set it to 0.0 and the tumbleweeds are ground clamped everywhere. Appreciate it. -

New to SF2. Where to Begin with Mods?
JSF_Aggie replied to BrianRubin's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Read the Knowledge Base here, then ask if you still don't know how to do something. Most mods come with a decent README, that include install instructions. Try something simple first, like installing a skin for a stock aircraft. Some of the larger mods will just say to drop the top level folder into your SF2 mod folder, but I would recommend poking around and seeing what's where. This will help you learn the directory structure of the mod folder. -

Stupid question...If you contribute, and he doesn't make the $25k goal and he decides not to move forward, is your donation returned? Sorry, it's my first day on the internets. -

TARAWA CLASS
JSF_Aggie replied to sasha013's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
I assume you're talking about the LHA that comes stock is SF2NA? If so, you need this mod for the game to treat it like a carrier. Checkout the readme for install instructions and limitations. -
Top Gun Campaigns
JSF_Aggie posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
I'm working on three Top Gun campaigns for my Southwest US terrain. It's all close to completion, I just haven't been able to touch it since Christmas, due to some personal crap. I'm back at it, and hope to have them done in a few weeks. Top Gun '70 F-4B F-4J Top Gun '74 F-4N F-4J_74 Top Gun '78 F-14A -
What Should Be In A Strike Fighters 3?
JSF_Aggie replied to JosefK's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Man, I have no idea. During, and since college, I've never worked in the commercial world. I vaguely remember someone asking him on the TW forums, but I can't remember If he answered or not. TK I'm sure has the source code backed up and under CM, but he would never freely give it to us. That's not a jab at him, it's his intellectual property. I once had to grab some code out of a F-16 sim that literally was two insanely long files, hud.cpp and mfd.cpp. I bet TK architects his code better than that. -

I don't have A10RWRTrackSound.wav and A10RWRLockSound.wav in my SOUNDS folder, so I had no RWR tones. Also, itty-bitty drag chute. It's amazing ravenclaw. Thank you so much. -

Skins in Campaign
JSF_Aggie replied to Pologuy66's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I've never used the campaign customizer, so I don't know. You can manually edit the _data.ini to change the skin used by a squadron that already exists in the campaign. That's a one line edit. Adding a new squadron is a little more involved. -
Skins in Campaign
JSF_Aggie replied to Pologuy66's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
It's not a bug with either, just the way the campaign system is set up. If you want to use a different skin in a campaign, you have to edit the assigned skin in the campaign's _data.ini, for that particular squadron. -
