Dave replied to Wrench's topic in Site Support / Bug Reports / Suggestions
Cone on guys, really? Erik will be done when he is done. He isn't sitting on his ass eating bon bons. I have said it before and I will say it again. This is as the site was being first made, like from scratch, new hardware, OS, software. This is from the ground up maintenance. A total and complete upgrade. Out with All THE OLD and in with the new. So just wait. -
On July 4th, 1776 our founding fathers got together and a wrote a document that stated we are mad as hell and we're not going to take it any more. The Revolutionary War (1775–1783) was fought and a new nation was born. A nation born on the principals of the Bill of Rights and the Preamble to the US Constitution says is beautifully; We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. I served my country for 20 years based on those words and those documents. I have brothers and sisters who continue to serve and some who made the ultimate sacrifice defending those ideals. So remember when you are doing your BBQ today and watching those fireworks displays, that the United States of America was a nation founded; Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. and that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. May God bless you all and God bless the United States of America. Dave, OUT

I have four heavily heavily modded installs and not a single issue. No lock ups, no CTD's, not even a campaign problem from the one I am in right now. Me thinks some of your modded installs are causing the problems. When patching, after you install the patch, always add folders back one at a time and QC from there. Time consuming yes, but works like a charm for narrowing down any problems. -

Yeah but its so easy to add patches anymore, its not even a chore. I am already patched and so far so good. -
The only other one I see with a checker tail from my F-102 book is the 16th FIS. Maybe this one?
-
Was it this one? 57th FIS out of Iceland. This one I took a picture of at the USAF museum.
-
Listen, I only use LOW yield...just enough to make pretty lights and everyone goes....UHHHHH AHHHHHH.

How can I get more Mig-19's to show up than 17's and 21's without having to deleted anything?
-
More Mig-19's
Dave replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yeah I did that, I forgot about editing the campaign. I edited my completely an now I am going up against all sorts Mig-19's and moved some of the Allied aircraft around too. SO now I have a interesting campaign. -
Oh dear god, a spotlight ranger to the extreme. The reviews are just terrible for this book. What a douchebag.

Something I try to live my life by.

The Mirage Factory F-14's avionics are almost done. Here is a sample by Caesar. I also have been messing with the textures and gauges of the pit to give it more depth. We have made the RSR campaign itself. Everything is working but cant seem to take off from the Foch. Also I added the Saratoga and it keeps putting my Tomcats back on the Nimitz. However using JSF_Aggies LHA ini editing I was also able to put AV-8B's on the USS Saipan and you take off from there. I added two Mig-29A squadrons and left only 3 other fighter units to defend Iceland. I'm debating to whether I should remove the rest and leave the Fulcrums only. Any suggestions? I made and or put together 6 squadrons for the Tomcats from 1986. The first 4 I made; VF-84, VF-41,VF-32, VF-31. VF-74 and VF-103 I put together from existing skins. Some of those added are there because they are some of Caesar's and I's favorites. (Might replace VF-31 with VF-111 for giggles). I have added one F/A-18A squadron (VFA-132) so far. I will add VMFA-323 from the Marines just for variety. Also the 57th FIS is fully equipped with F-15C's. I removed the Soviet Navy completely so all missions are land attack. Still hoping the Backfires come after my convoy though or all of this is for nothing. As far as the convoys goes I have created a huge one with cargo ships and added White Boy Samurai's Ticos for air cover (although there was only 2 or 3 available in 1986) and using the OHP's and Spurance class that TK made for the rest. Just need to get all the weapons working on the Ticos. If anyone knows please PM me. I also added the USS Iowa to pound Soviet positions when we get close to the island. It quite the impressive looking convoy. So all in all everything is working out well so far. Sample of the mainscreen....

It happens all the time when the foam system "detects" fire and sets it off. We had it happen here with a C-5 in the hangar.

There isn't one, get eburger's SF2:NA upgrade when the download section is back up. That will have what you need in it. -

Erik is a 100% stand up guy. He would never cheat anyone out of money to run the site. All these things he does, he does to make the site better for everyone to use.If anyone ever has a problem with anything on the site Erik can just about fix it all. He wants the site to run as smooth as glass for all of you. Its his baby and when the masses are unhappy he is unhappy. He wants all of you to be happy. Me I want the same but I am the loud mouth bulldog of the site. But I am not infallible.

Not sensitive, I do not like rudeness towards our staff and especially the owner.. As far as threats go, that's not a threat, that's reality. You come to this site you will use a certain amount of decorum. This is a private site and we make the rules. So don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. Everyone, yes your money is important to you and it is to us to stay open so you can all use these mods etc. However we do not need money so bad that we have to tolerate poor manners. I will not tolerate it. Donating money to this site does not mean you can talk to the staff any way you like. A little bit of courtesy goes a long way. You cross that line though, expect to be called on it.
