A-7_Flir?
aleks replied to AGOSTINO's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
the ex-us navy a-7 e and 36 of the greek a7 (a7e) used the flir LANA. although it was not very capeable as the LANTRIN , it is a very useful device for night targeting and navigation -

Small modelling problem
aleks replied to PureBlue's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
first of all, assure that the mapping is done with the unwrap method and not by adding texture directly forom 3d studio max.second, check the texture to be about 1024x1024 or 2048 x 2048 pixels, and having all the pieces inside(unwrap separately)perhaps u can choose some items that need more detail and map them fully in profiles, and put the rest in an area with flat texture.third but also important is to have the harbour's game file created with the used texture inside, and load it from there to the 3d studio max...some problems also appear with bad ini script, if the game does not find the right path to assign the texture to your object. -

questo mi ricorda il bel vecchio "crimson skies"con i dirigibili-portaerei situato in una era americana dopo il crach di '29.pero, quando grosso sarebbe uno di loro per portare almeno degli harrier? di altri aerei non vorrei pensarlo.casomai una stazione stratosferica per nf104?

Desert Storm F-4E´s
aleks replied to coolpilot's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
well, from what i saw in the past, at least 28 f4e were delivered from ANG to hellenic air force. the planes presented some extra features, such as more precise auto pilot and bombing capacities.the rwr had female voice in tape, to warn about threats and reinforced structure(a kind of mid-life update).for the rest, the airplane's avionics and electronic suite was just updated , withapq 120 radar ecc the planes known as f4e SRA in greek service were dismissed about 2 years ago, came with the hillgray 2 camo and in 2003 change it to the typical greek f16 camo.one of them was particular, because it was one of about 12 having full glass front canopy without structure beams.they all were replaced by f16 blk52+ to obtain spare parts for the remaining f4e AUP. -

3D Max questions
aleks replied to 76.IAP-Blackbird's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
if, for example u have the swing-wing of a tornado gr4, moving around a axis, and having 2 underwing pylons moving in such mode, to be always paralel respect of the fuselage: the swing-wing is animated in an animation p.e "5" and then linked to the fixed part of the wing .the pylons are linked directly to the wing, animated in the same animation in order to move together.don't bother about having many parts on the same animation, i work with 18 nozzles in my engines :).these parts, wing and pylons must turn all together in the same time -

Rafale knocked out from Indian MRCA contest
aleks replied to ghostrider883's topic in Military and General Aviation
the same story every time that french try to sell an aircraft..... first of all, they sell in high price, secondly, they sell also the entire arsenal to make the planes capable.third, their upgrades cost at least haf the cost of the original plane, and for last, they try to buy the older mirage 2000 at scrapped -price, to re-sell them all over the world. dassault rafale is a very capeable aircraft, with various armament and very effective.personally i prefer it from ef 2000 or even su27 -f 15.the real cost reaches 100 million usd for each plane.india has to buy all the missiles and bombs to make it operative, just because the existing ones from mirage 2000 doesn't fit !!!! then, for sure, french goverment doesn't accept the joint production for the plane,something that india will not accept for sure,seeing on the amount in investiment.for 72 ef 2000 the saudi arabians will create an entire aircraft factory!and then comes the upgrade for the airframes in about 20 years of service, in extremely high cost, if there should be ever... -
F-94C
aleks replied to KnightWolf45's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
well, my friend, i think that many things can be less complicated if u u se the existing ini from the f94b.first of all take good care and look at ther f94 b inis, to see how to nominate various elements such as surfaces, members and moving parts.then u can find lots of help about the weapon loading and loadout from many experts in here.somebody with higher skills on ini editingcan help u in order to change some aircraft data and have a more realistic flight model.things can be easy, don't bother and have fun on creating the old-good starfire -
eh, amici miei, questa e la forma brutta del capitalismo, licenziare la gente non perche la ditta presenta danni, ma solo perche i proffiti sono bassi!!!!! e poi parliamo di uno studio in cui furono creati simulatori di avanguardia, da punto di vista tecnologico.....non scordero mai la serie starlancer-freelancer e l'indimenticabile crimson skies!!! :'(

GFD-12 & Shangar problem
aleks replied to krfrge's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
firstly, this is a new max construction or a modify of a texture, in an existing building? in the first case, seems that the front is not mapped. in the second case, perhaps u changed the analysis of the texture ex.from 512 x512 to 2048x2048, or using a wrong file format, or multilayered format(not flattened psd image).the image size is also a trap, try to not change the resolution to a bigger value than the old one -
once i saw in a journal review, that us navy in the late sixties gave, unoficialy, about 6 f4 b to IAf , in order to use in case of extreme emergency. the planes were fully capeable to use nuclear bombs, the famous "weapons of the Temple ", a capacity not present in export models of all the types.this capacity of arming nukes, is provided by special circuits and arming consoles.For example,here, in greece, the nato nuclear force was based in f104 until 1992, despite the presence of more modern and capeable types, such as f4e, mirage f1 and a7 and later f16 and mirage 2000.all the types above had not any arming panels for this type of attacks

Space Shuttles in TW sims
aleks replied to Jarhead1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
i thought once making a real cold war scenario, a "silver bullet".in this case, apparently in late 70's-early 80's i immagined a preventive hit in order to stopussr or usa on launching satelites in the famous"star war"scenario targets could be the columbia shuttles in theilr launch bay, and the buran shuttles also!to be frank, the space shuttles could be ground targets. we have all the interceptors of the times and most of the bombers.i think somebody can make the start or join efforts with many of us, in order to have a real hard and interesting add-on!! -
