Lossa' rockets
Tonyhawk1786 posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Ok out of sheer scroll laziness, and the fact that i want to get my rating up as a posting member, so i will be more respected among my fellow peers and plane shooter...downers...Ok whatever i am going someplace with this trust me. I was wondering if it's possible to fire salvos of rockets as opposed to one at a time. I've tried the bracket keys being " [ and ] " keys but nothing please help...my space bar's dying...if not for me for the space bar. Thank you much ~Aaron :shock: -

Cripple plane needs

Hey everyone, i was just wondering if in the patched version if it's still posible for you to make a succesful belly landing, i bombed a ship with 3 2000pound bombs and i happened to be a little low, so i glided to the coast with nothing but a powerless smoking engine, and a missing elevator on my F-100 and i came in for a belly landing, and ended up as ornate shrapnel lawn ornaments, so any info would be much appreciated. Thanks as always ~Aaron :shock: -
SAMs

i just got my ass handed to me by one in a anti-ship mission, i tryed to dive, and then there was a fire ball, if these things where this realistic no wonder they make short work of planes And why do they always pick me first, they never take out my wingmen, always me, cause im not A.I. enough for them...jelous punks -

What do you like most about SF?
Tonyhawk1786 replied to snapple2993's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I'd say the ease of installing skins and such ranks up there with me. And the fact that it's a little known era, and has alot of cool jets. I dont know how many games modeled it, but it's great blowing a Tu-22 Blinder out of the sky only to have to chase down the rest of the flight before they hit your base, using only guns...nice...congrats TK ~aaron :shock: -

Well finally i got the damn game to work (pardon my language) and so i did a mission where i was flying strike with a flight of f-4e's under the single flight selection. So to test the new SAMs seeing as i've been smoked by the AAA alot already, i flew towards them, eventually the RWR was beeping like there was no tomorrow, i was hoping to see some smoke trails and missles soon...and as i flew towards them...they just aimed at me...never fired..? Any advice for getting shot, and is it a little odd to anyone else that the AAA in the game smokes a jet in the first few rounds that hit? I mean i dont even see it coming then bam fireball...maybe im used to Il-2 or is this happening to just me? Ohh well Happy flying ~aaron White :D -

And i looked around...didnt see one....kept looking....gave up. So i went on and took out some Bar Sweep sites with my Shrikes and then bombed some of the AAA around it, then on my way out i exploded...i was puzzles and when i checked my plane's fireball on pause...I saw the smoke trail into it...guess i got what i wanted...i wish i knew where it came from...lol, anyway how can i aquire a canberra?

Wow, nice screen shot, i wish i could tell wounded jet stories...instead my relatives are the only one's left to make up a good story as to why i died on a mission where i was supposed to be intercepting bombers...and for some reason led my flight astray to 'test' the SAM's and AAA's awareness...woops :roll: -

even though im not running SFP1 at what im used to, even scaled back settings, i did a night mission attacking some radar sites with a flight of 4 f-100s and i fired one Shrike and knocked out the radar truck, then went in for some AAA, and just for the heck of it dropped all 5 Napalm bombs at once....when they hit...tears filled my eyes...for i now am a believer in all that is good...i have seen the top of the mountain...and upon it...is Strike Fighters...god bless TK and his crew -
My head will explode without help...please!!!!

Ok i just got the patch downloaded, and installed and im having a worse time with it than with out. I clicked Instant Action and it loaded with-out a hitch, so i was like ohh boy, so i go to the Single mission one, and create a mission, then i click fly, after loading out my plane. So anyways i click fly, and the game starts to go to the load screen, but first, goes to the desk top, i figure no problem, i'll just click it and make the task bar maximize, but it wont, so i ctrl alt del it, and it says not responding, yet i can hear through the speakers the RWR going off and slowly getting more and more intense, so it wasnt frozen. Sorry this is long, but im running out of hair to pull out of my head. Somone help please!! :x -

It's a GeForce MX 420 on a HP AMD 1600 at 1.4ghz. And XP. And the card's PCI, or is AGP just a genral reference to the slot it's in -

Tonyhawk1786 replied to Tonyhawk1786's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
It's a PCI card, or is the AGP slot just the term for the tray it's placed in? I dont know if that makes a difference or not -

Hot damn, i got a ton of replies. Ok Well for all the people knowing more about this than I (most of you) i fiddled with this damn thing all night and went to the Device manager and turned off the default card which left me with a startbar-less computer, and it was stuck in 16 color and the 640 resolution. even after i changed it back it wouldnt work, so for the people who suggested shutting it down via the BIOS setting system ,how might i get to that? Thanks for all the posts guys, It's helping alot. :D -

Tonyhawk1786 replied to Tonyhawk1786's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Ok, well here's what i've figured so far. if i select my computer and not my GeForce4 it will work, for some reason when i removed the 3d card to get the computer worked on, it wont select it as the default card, it's still selecting the computer generic 3d card. So if anyone could help me on dissabling the old 3d card, it would be much appreciated. Thanks for the replies guys, arr stupid technology :x -
