Holy, this thing can move
Capmaster replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Speaking of big, black, fast planes, has anyone worked on an SR-71 model for WoE/WoV? I waded through the old topics before posting this, and did a search. Nothing came up. It would be nice to have for recon missions. -
Retrofit those Nukes!
Capmaster replied to Mike463's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Then why all the care to make the aircraft as realistic as possible? In WoV, the dink on the ground doesn't care what plane dropped the B53 that just greased him and his village ....and all the other villages -
Retrofit those Nukes!
Capmaster replied to Mike463's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Mike has some good ideas there. Why not make it as accurate as it can be. The B83 is indeed a strategic-only weapon. The B61 comes in various flavors - some tactical and some strategic. They're identified by the mod number - for example, the B61-3,4 is a european theater tactical version, and the B61-7 is a strategic version. I'd be interested to also see an antiaircraft missile with a bigger bang than the AIM-26A/W54, like the larger W25/Genie. An old weapon, but you gotta love the kill radius This sounds like a wish list. Mike - I would also be willing to provide details on the actual weapons, for realism, if anyone decides to undertake the project I still have some old pics laying around. BTW, Mike is an old Air Force puke, and I'm an old DOE Weapons Lab engineer puke. We go way back :yes: I personally was involved in the designs of the B61-7, B61-6,8 (Cat-F PAL version), B90 (never fielded), B53-1, W61 (never fielded), B83-1 and the W69 (SRAM). If I don't have pics, I still have memories of the weapon details. -
Tired of the lame hangar radio that plays during your loadout? Here's some nice jazz to replace it, with the echo and all. Just copy to your WOE/menu folder over the old one Edit: Never mind. The 1.87MB file is apparently too large to upload here

Hangar Radio
Capmaster replied to Capmaster's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yeah. It said "Not enough room for upload" or some nonsense. That's OK. I got tired of listening to the music so I changed it. I thought someone else would also be interested. If anyone wants it, it's located here: http://convopit.com/HangarRadio1.wav -
Enhanced Explosions
Capmaster replied to Stary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
Sorry. My mistake. I had just changed the simulation skill level from easy to normal. That required a manual missile lock before it would fire. I'm still learning the game ... -
Enhanced Explosions
Capmaster replied to Stary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
I installed the enhanced explosions pack and it disabled the AIM-26A Nuclear Falcon for the F-15A. I have the weapons pack add-on installed. Any workaround? I like the idea of more realistic nuke explosions since the originals are pretty lame.
