Need help with SoCal ver2, the bloddy mountains look like gigantic piles of sand, Polak's Desert tile mod looks great but its messing up the rest of the flat terrain.. can anyone assist?

Well the A-4s will be A-4 Super Echoes from Column5, these will appear solely on the Top Gun Missions. Ground Weapons will be used by the F-14D Model and others, but mainly the A-4 will be air-combat capable only.

Thanks a lot for this info, so i should be able to find this Flightdata eh? what particular filename/s am i looking for? Please i really appreciate the help!

Thanks a lot for the info. i have been looking at the HUDDATA.ini for some time, I just needed to know the limitation of the box type. I assumed that there was a way to design your own boxtype and have it used in the sim but i guess im limited to basic shapes. I wonder... is it possible to use TWO shapes at the same time? where are the boxtypes actually hide?\ Oh, can carriers remain stationary? Thanks to all the help! Screens, trailer and intro out soon...

Please guys, any help would be appreciated... Thanks, Shin

Let the Vids do the talking VIDEO LINKS! My heart skipped a few beats

Hey guys, In a few weeks i will be getting a new graphics card so i can get back to video making. One thing that has been on my mind is my desire to make a story about the missions and pilots of Operation Rolling Thunder during the Vietnam war. In the past i had planned to make several short animated films combining japanese style animation and game graphics from the Strike Fighters series, however inconsistency with the animators (mind you i couldnt pay them much) and the introduction of Strike Fighters 2 forced me to shelve the project. Now im planning to use clips from a finished animated film "Area 88" use certain scenes that would fit into my storyline, dub the voices, then combine it with footage taken from Strike Fighters 2: Vietnam. Im going to also use the SFV2 Gold expansion pack for the project. In a week ill make the early draft if the script available to the combatace,com community and it will be up to the community whether or not i go ahead with my plans. The focus aircraft will be the F-100 Super Sabre. The story will focus more on Rolling Thunder the operation and i will try to base the story on key missions of the time. Characters thus far: The central unit is the 416th TFS of the 5652nd TFW based in Da Nang, characters however are of fiction -Lt. James "Starry" Hicks A veteran pilot who has two MiG-17 kills, he is an accomplished flight leader with over 20 combat sorties experienced. Subsequent problems of conduct have kept him from being promoted to Captain. -Capt. Steve "Burner" Johnson Starry's flight leader. A graduate of Harvard, joined the USAF due to tradition. A no nonsense officer, he constantly puts up with Starry shenanigans off base. -Colonel Thomas "Gramps" McDonald *Based on Colonel Robert Olds An aviator since the days of World War 2, Gramps is the most experienced pilot of the wing. Though is not required flight time, Gramps leads missions into North Vietnam and is an inspiration to the pilots under him. These are the characters thus far. Im open to comments and suggestions. Thanks for the support.

Hey guys , prepare for a a great treat this 2009... We are currently working on a graphic novel or also known as an manga visual novel... Anyways the project is called: "The Strike Fighters" The series will be a mix of anime and game graphics... The story will not be canon to the SFP:1 timeline and story... Story and Hardware Set in the 1970s, the story covers the first weeks of the oil war between Paran and Dhimar. It will follow a squadron of merc pilots hired by the Dhimarian government, who are hastily building up their air force for the conflict. The mercs will be flying older aircraft like the A-1 Skyraider and the S-2 Tracker. Mostly commited for air-to-ground support missions, the mercs will tangle with Mig-17s and Mig-19s... Eventually the mercs will obtain A-4 Skyhawks and F-4 Phantoms... Meanwhile, the Dhimarian air force will fly with F-105s, F-104s and F-101s at the beginning in the series but will eventually upgrade to F-5 Tigers. The DAF focuses more on the air-to-air aspect of the war and are charged with CAP and Escort missions... The Paran Air Force consists of large numbers Mig-17s, three squadrons of Mig-19s and a squadron of Mig-21s (The Elites). The Paran initially commit air units for terror strikes on cities and air support for ground forces, until eventually being tasked with hunting down Dhimarian Mercenery Air Units and protecting Paran territories from air attack. Synopsis for the first few episodes The Series will begin with the Paran air offensive on port cities of Dhimar. At this time, Paran forces strike the borders as tanks pour into Dhimar. The Dhimarian Government declares a state of emergency and starts asking U.S. for help. Meanwhile, the first groups of mercs arrive at Special Operations Air Base 1 who are suprised that they'll be flying vintage Skyraiders and S-2 Trackers... Production kicks off in two weeks... If you have any suggestions and comments, feel free to share em with me... We should have a trailer out by next week... my email is coldwarrior2008@yahoo.com if you wanna see our lead artist's work, check her page hear @ http://pandapow.sheezyart.com/ Hope you guys will support this effort!!! Thanks

This for WoX or Thirdwire sims... I've seen threads that allow me to make game start-up intro movies, but is there a way to make a movie start when selecting a single mission? Example: Say my mission was called "The Patrol" I click "Single Missions" then click "The Patrol" then a movie (previously created) would pop up then after the movie played, your at the briefing screen Thanks...

This is an update from the Strike Fighters Anime project. Due to changes within the group and due to new leadership changes, SF:The Anime is now on hold. In its place are pilot episodes for two mecha-anime series: "Tomcat Alley" and "G-Force Afterburners" The team that had worked the on SF:The Anime are now working on an anime remake of the SEGA-CD game "Tomcat Alley". This series will include characters created by the combatace community for Strike Fighters. Content will be a mix of anime and game footage from WOI. Heres a trailer of the original Tomcat Alley CLICK ME TOMCAT ALLEY LOGO Setting: World Terrorism is entering a new age as the United States continue to struggle in the War Against Terror in the Middle-East. With the world's most powerful nations concentrated on the middle-east, new technologically advance factions begin to rise. One of whom is Paran. Once a warring nation with it's neighbor Dhimar, Paran was nearly destroyed during a fierce confict between it and Dhimar's ally, the United States during the 1980s. After years of being peaceful, a new Islamic government has taken power of the nation. What makes matters worse, the new regime is backed by ex-Soviet revoutiaries and renegades led by General Povich whose sole objective is to destroy the United States and her allies. In 2008, intelligence agancies reported steady build up of terrorist forces in the deserts of Paran. In 2009, a new coalition force was secretly formed by the United Nations to combat future large-scale potential threats. The UN ground element of this coalition was called the Combined-Strike Force. The Naval element was called Blue Thunder. The air element was called Combined-Air Unit, often referred by its nickname, "Tomcat Alley" due to its complement of F-14 aircraft. Tomcat Alley is comprised of rebuilt and redisigned, decomissioned F-14's. As Tomcats were retired, some were siphoned back to Grumman for retrofiting and overhaul. These new Tomcats recieved new engines, strengthend airframes, new weapons systems, and new avionics. This new breed of Tomcat is the F-14X Super Tomcat. The F-14X is the mainstay of Tomcat Alley due to its versatility in air and ground combat. The multi-national pilots who fly at the "Alley" are some the best pilots of the world. Tomcat Alley's mission is to destroy terrorist threats wherever possible. In 2010, Paran forces invade Dhimar... Tomcat Alley is sent into action, taking on the most technologically-sophisticated terrorist military in the world... Hope we can go the distance with this one, "Let's kick the tires and light the fires!" Thanks for your support! -Tomcat Alley Production Team

Ok I never played the campaign... Planning to make a few videos based on the original "Strike Fighters" sim.. Can anyone tell me any details in the fictional war of Dhimar? i had checked wikipedia but can people offer me some more stuff about the conflict... or your experiences in the campaigns? I'd also appreciate to know when the war ended in the Dhimar conflict... thanks!!!

Hey guys thanks a lot for helping us out with your characters... We are introducing another grease monkey. David "Ratchet" Sevour Age: 15 Background Ratchet is a Dhimari-American teenager who was born in the United States but grew up in Dhimar after his american father joined the Dhimarian Air Force as a civilian consultant. His mother is Dhimarian but she flew to the U.S.A. when the conflict escalated. Ratchet was always keen on aircraft design and maintenance since he was 10. During the first air strikes, Ratchet was at home when his father phone to meet him at the airport. Ratchet grabbed a few things, stuffed it in his backpack and headed to the airport. Upon arriving, he saw the airport totally destroyed. Thinking his father would eventually meet up with him, Ratchet waited until the next morning only to find that the city was about to be overrun by Paran forces. He then reluctantly boards an evac chopper bound for the merc airbase. Once there, Ratchet hung around, hoping his father would arrive on another evac. While waiting, Ratchet tries to help out with repairs and overhauls on newly arrived merc aircraft until ground crew realize his talents. Currently (in the series) he has established himself as an authority on aircraft maintenance drawing from his father's knowledge and all those days spent reading schematics, manuals, and repair books...

Its the government the mercs are working for... Dhimar

Ok, im trying this... He is gonna be a merc, he is another "lone wolf" who prefers to fly alone... He is the best sniper, in fact he is a freelance assassin working for the Dhimarian Government. When his contract expired, he figured he could do more in the air than on the ground... Wat you think?
