  1. Hi guys I just thought id say it sounds like a great idea, and although i would not be able to help with the creation of the mod (i only know how to do some basic ini editing) i would definiteley download it just a quick question - would you be making both factions playable? Mike
  2. WHOA Check This!

    I am a believer aswell LOL On a serious note it is a high probability that we are not alone in this universe, given the billions of stars in the sky and that each of them could sustain a solar system such as ours it seems a bit far fetched to think we ARE alone in the universe. Maybe one day we will find out
  3. Pics Technik Museum Speyer

    Hi all I went to an awesome museum in Germany around 6 years ago but i can't remember the name. (Somewhere between frankfurt and munich LOL) Anyway it had all sorts of aircraft including the concord and the tu144l on display. It was definetely the best museum i had ever seen unfortunately i dont have the pics on digital format. These are really cool pics, love the space shuttle
  4. Just wondering if the creators of this mod have set a release date yet?
  5. Holy Sh*t I can't wait to play this mod, I was asking for a mod like this not too long ago and now here it is. Thanks guys, really appreciate the work your doing P.S. is this a whole new terrain that is being used?
  6. Hi Guys I have added both a friendly and enemy carrier to the stock red lightning campaign (thanks to the awesome knowledge base here at CA ) but i was just wondering whether it is possible to destroy the carriers. I have had a quick try by dropping a couple of 500 pounders on my home carrier (oops) and nothing happened. If they are indeed destroyable i was wondering if its possible to set up a strike mission to destroy them and incorporate this mission into the stock campaign If anybody has the answers please reply Mike
  7. Carriers

    Thanks Gocad Just had a look at the map with the mission editor and the soviet carrier is there, however i assigned a couple of squadrons to it and they didnt show up in the command map (mission planner) I havnt actually flown up to find out whether it is physically there though Mike
  8. Hi guys, I have been playing the thirdwire games for around 6 months and have gradually been building up the difficulty level (i.e changing games settings from easy to medium to hard) Last week i started my first campaign with evrything set to hard in the a10a (WOE campaign red lightning) Firstly i would just like to say that i know the A10 is not built for dogfights but i keep finding myself in a position where there are Migs up my ass, my wingman is dead and the nearest escort is 20 miles away! Its not very pleasant after a succesful CAS mission to be blown up on the way home! I was just wondering if any of the 'vets' of the thirdwire series could offer some tips on fightin back against the migs. They always seem to be able to outrun and outturn me so i am having difficulty primarily setting up a shot with the AIM9. I havnt even attempted to use the GAU8 yet lol Any replies would be appreciated Mike
  9. hi guys I have just added a carrier to the stock desert thunder campaign in SFG and it is working fine However i was just wondering whether it is possible to put a fleet in the same position as the carrier rather than leaving the carrier alone? im not an expert on this but i would think that a carrier would have other ships with it in a warzone Mike
  10. Thanks guys I am just about to go givbe it a try. All the help is much appreciated. Knew i could get some good tips from you guys. Thanks fast cargo for the MSN file. Will give that a try later
  11. Thanks viper However everytime i attempt to turn inside the mig i lose lots of airspeed and before i have a chance to let rip hes left me in the dust lol
  12. Infantry

    I have noticed a significant gap in this series and wondering if anyone else feels the same way I noticed that while some (modded) campaigns for the TW series include basic infantry i have yet to come across infantry that are equiped with portable SAMs? (IGLA, Stinger etc). (BTW i have found the stinger site on this site but i am referring to portable SAMS) It would be much more challenging to play a CAS mission knowing that the troops could fire back at you. If anyone knows where i can get this mod (if it exists) or if someone is building it, it would be much appreciated if you could let me know. Thanks
  13. Infantry

    I suppose thats true I was thinking more along the lines of mechanized infantry platoons. They have more often than not got some manpads at their disposal. Or SF?
  14. Infantry

    Thanks for the info Just thought it would add a new dimension to CAS missions. having to plan each attack run more carefully just in case some soldier has a pop with a stinger LOL
  15. The Driving Force behind Third Wire

    This guy is truly a genius at work. This bio just makes me appreciate playing these games alot more now.I had no idea TK worked on his own to create strike fighters. WOW! is all i can say. Keep it up TK!
  16. OMG! F-13s outperform F-35s!

    Wot a load of tosh! The only way that would be possible, even in a realistic simulator is if there are 200 f13s against one jsf then they would only kill it after it has run out missiles and cannon rounds Some people will just make up stories to see what sort of effect they have. Especially in the political arena
  17. Hi guys just wondering if there is a way to that i can get the WOI f-16 netz stock cockpit from woi into woe f-16 blk 50 that im using for operation final dawn. i have had a look in the woi f-16 folder and there is no cockpit in there. However the aircraft config ini points to F-16A_Netz_cockpit.ini. which i cannot find im a bit of noob to modding this series but i did have a look at the knowledge base first and found nothing. Hope this doesnt rate too highly on your noobometer LOL
  18. Cockpit question

    Thank you for replying i will try it out later on. Soz about posting in the wrong place BTW
  19. Just wondering if anyone can help. im trying to install berlin crisis and am having a spot of trouble finding the westland lynx ah mk 7 and the ah1 cobra gunship. the readme for the mod points to a link that does not exist on this website and the helos are also not listed in the download section. Have they been removed? if anyone knows where i can get these it will be much appreciated Mike

  23. Nice pics! I live near an RAF ground attack range that focuses on strafing. I see and hear tornados flying past all the time but would love to see the hog in action I also seen two eurofighters passing my house last week but unfortunately my camera had run out of batteries lol
