  1. FE and the rest do 5DOF TIR. No head roll.
  2. Among other stuff, I think, I did report to TK that there are no A-7 squdrons im campagins. I hope he fixes with Israel release/update and a standalone patch later on. Could be fun to see A-7 vs SA-8

  3. Wingman

    Ground avoidance seems fixed by the latest SF2E patch.

  4. Wingman

    Gr.Viper replied to Ice Man's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion

    I once had a wingman who crashed his Crusader after catapult take off. Even enemies get that in their air forces. With hilarious consequences.
  5. Is there a "paper glider" skin for this plane?
  6. Modern jet airliner pilot. Just add a newspaper covering the windows to block the sunshine. Tu-154 crews do it Strangely enough, a search on da Pirate Bay results in no hits for the SF2 series at all. Must have something to do with low profile and the fact that serious cracker groups don't deal with no-DRM games.
  7. Scan system for viruses. It could be starting some program and then shutting it down quickly. I had something like that that would start invisible internet explorer for a second and then disappear.
  8. Same applies to F-15. +the faster you go the greater the fuel flow.
  9. Is that the reason why there are ghosts of buildings hovering above cities at night?
  10. The game selects proper skin automatically if available but there's no green texture in the game folders so far. Still, nothing a patch couldn't fix. :yes: I think you'll see different tanks in different years. Maybe in different tank units. All SF2:E stock campaigns start with all-out Soviet offensive but if you survive long enough you'll see blue tanks attacking.
  11. Centurions only have tan camo for now, but I hope they'll be fixed. Soviet air defences were all tan when SF2:V was released
  12. Which planes?
  14. Not at all after I've shot them down on Hunter with droptanks
  15. I think cockpit shadows are enabled when the plane has OpenCockpit=true set in it's data files. TK might turn pit shadows on for all aircraft at some point.
  16. ...or one plane is an uber-ultra-high-res model while the one flying next to it is a simpler model designed for older PCs and game engine. Spoils the atmosphere sometimes, doesn't it. The very reason I mostly fly stock setup - they all look more or less the same. Even Soviets are getting a gradual facelift in the remakes.
  17. I think the menu automatically adjusts to desktop resolution now.

  18. 3D моделинг

    Gr.Viper replied to Da_Don's topic in Русский

    Гугль о Scimitar выдал милую ссылку на сайт моделистов http://armorama.kitmaker.net/modules.php?o...2549&page=1 Дефендер здесь вроде есть, но надо зарегаться чтобы в полном разрешении смотреть http://www.the-blueprints.com/blueprints/cars/landrover/
  19. Yes, but it is the 37mm on MiG-17 that tends to make missions very lively.
  20. Beware, you're about to discover the joy of a head-on guns-only attack. 37-mm, not Spandau
  21. There's always another way to target Mavericks. Point camera at target area, zoom in, press "lock target in centre of screen". Works unviersally for all EO and laser weapons. Actually a nice method to target tanks with TIR - you look at them, lock them and then the seeker focuses on them (it's not instant in the latest game versions). Any 2 keys of +/- or a joystick axis. Harrier pit That's GR.3
  22. Fast approach, missed the wires, hit the brakes, rolled, fell off, ejected... Pilot wounded, plane lost until replacements arrive (if any)
  23. Just google for power supply calculator and voila http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp Turns out I use about 230w peak. With 300w PSU.
  24. Didn't TK mention somewhere recently that highly-skilled AIs get a missile accuracy bonus and that he's planning to remove it some time? Could explain why flying versus blue is that much pain - higher average training levels boost missile accuracy.

  25. Happy Birthday Nicky

    My, isn't she old Happy birthday!
