My missiles became almost useless.....
Fubar512 replied to hide86's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Perhaps the missiles have a shelf life. Perhaps your AI pilots are getting smarter. Perhaps you've changed your difficulty settings and forgot about it? -
Ballistic missiles
Fubar512 replied to Silverbolt's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
That would be me....and that was about 30 months ago... -
serious radio comms?
Fubar512 replied to Shin_kazama's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
I have a strong suspicion that English is your primary language. I also suspect that you are somewhat intelligent. That means that you can probably find it quite easily, if you really apply yourself. In fact, I know you're going to do just that, as I'm closing this topic, in order to encourage you to that end. -
upwards TVC on command
Fubar512 replied to Shin_kazama's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Trust me, it will not work. I tried this almost two years ago, when I first started working on the F-22's flight model, and have tried it again with every subsequent patch release since then. I do have a wild idea that I've shared with USAFMTL, however... -
modern, calm, radio comms

What are you, Jimmy Two Times? Gotta get the papers....get the papers.... -
upwards TVC on command
Fubar512 replied to Shin_kazama's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
That's been "working" that way for a while now, in the opposite direction of any pitch inputs, making it about as useful as a coat hanger in a nudist colony. -
Aircraft Radar Cross Section
Fubar512 replied to DoctorQuest's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
If you can see it on radar, something's not right. Even a value of -0.001 renders the aircraft completely invisible to radar in-game, with all settigs on "hard". -
Aircraft Radar Cross Section
Fubar512 replied to DoctorQuest's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I've made a chart with the appropriate correction factors for the series. I'm presently taveling, I will post it when I return. Please be aware, however, that the current patch has damaged that feature, and the only way to acheivestealth (now), is by declaring a negative value -
question about mipmap
Fubar512 replied to Canadair's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yes, as you are then hard-coding the maximum texture size that the game will display. For example, if you have a 2048x2048 skin, and declare 256 as the max res texture, the game will limit the resolution of that bmp down to 256x256. -
question about mipmap
Fubar512 replied to Canadair's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Whether you enter -1, or leave it at 0, it will still be hard-coded in. Any settings in the graphics portion of the options menu will NOT effect this. Read through the preceding lines of that particular .ini file, and you'll see hard-coded entries for the various graphics levels (low, medium, high). -

Wow, Who would have thought that Artem Mikoyan and Mikhail Gurevich were really Egyptian "scientists" -
Just a update
Fubar512 replied to gerald14's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
A known idiosyncrasy of the series, is that it will often make weapons available for upload, and/or substitute what the engine interperts as a suitable replacement. The 21-93 is supposed to have the capability to carry R-27s, and can supposedly carry the R-77. Now, I know that the IAF has done this (operationally), but I've never seen an R-77 on a Russian bird, namely, because the Russians do not fly the '21 any more. -
Just a update
Fubar512 replied to gerald14's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Don't be lost. I'm simply commenting that the load out in your image is most likely inaccurate, a constructive critique meant to spur either yourself or Gerald into looking into it, verifying that it is or isn't, and correcting it, or myself. -
Mirage Factory F-4G nice low speed stalling
Fubar512 replied to ordway's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yes, USAFBLTDan is indeed a master aerodynamacist!!!11! The undisputed king of Thermodynamics!!!!111 The Ayatollah of aileron-a-rolla!!!111! LOL........... Seriously, the Mirage Factory has a lot of talent at their disposal. I'm sure a quick perusal of the read me file will turn up the identity of the artiste responsible for that flight model. -
Just a update
Fubar512 replied to gerald14's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I may be wrong (I've certainly been wrong before), but as far as I know, the MiG-21 never carried the R-23 or R-24. Later modifications of the '21bis (21-93), were supposedly wired and configured to carry a variant of the R-27 "Alamo", but I've yet to see an image of a '21 with that particular load out. R-3, R-60, and the R-73 capability (on the updated models) is all I can dig up. -
HUD questions
Fubar512 replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Gepard, IIRC, a "NAV" mode for the HUD is required in order for you to use them. Look through the F-15A_avionics.ini in WoE, for guidance on this. -

Polack's speech mod has been out for over a year. It's quite good. -
Cockpits for the right planes
Fubar512 replied to boris1234's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Of course. Both the updated F-16 and F-18 pits have it. -
Cockpits for the right planes
Fubar512 replied to boris1234's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Accurate cockpits often take considerably longer to model than the actual aircraft. The best cockpit for the series that I've seen so far (but I am not free to say what it is ) took the modeler about a year to complete. -
A few questions about fixed wing gunships
Fubar512 replied to SayethWhaaaa's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
You can rig some of them to fire as secondary guns. -
Jeff, those are some awesome shots! Welcome back.
