Mig-17F wrong decals for ALGERIA
Fubar512 replied to UllyB's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
If it's undocumented, how did Wrench find out about it? -
2 more small errors discovered in SF2
Fubar512 replied to UllyB's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Those so-called issues have been present in the series since 2002. I seriously doubt that ThirdWire even considers them to be of any importance, nor finds them detrimental to game-play in any way, shape or form. -

Fubar512 replied to UllyB's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
1) The series was only intended to be played from one side, so the game engine will assume that you are flying a Western Powers/NATO or Israeli aircraft. 2) AWACs are only available by default with SF2NA, or on any terrain that meets the "naval map" parameters established with SF2NA 3) "Red Crown" is not an AWACs callsign. It is a GCI station. Red Crown referred to a GCI controller on a ship in the Gulf of Tonkin, during the Vietnam war. -
So life-like in its maneuverability, that it was attacked by a hawk during a flight test! http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=mjOWpwbnmTw#at=134

No, we must employ imaginative techniques to capture the few remaining birds. Judging by this man's appearance, he has been quite successful at the endeavor....yum! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYz2QsDXqWk

Adding hardpoints to a plane?
Fubar512 replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
No. To have VISIBLE hardpoints, you need to have someone create them in MAX (and you can add them using the fake-pilot method). Functional (albeit, invisble) ones are simply a matter of adding them in the data.ini file for that aircraft. -

I suggest that you read the knowledge base. -
Adding hardpoints to a plane?
Fubar512 replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
You can "physically" (visually) add pylons using the fake pilot method, but someone will have to create them for you in Max. But otherwise, yes, it's a simple procedure, adding the desired positions in the aircraft's data file. But without the aforementioned "pylons", they'll be virtual. -
Enemy spawn?
Fubar512 replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yes. By creating your own missions. -

Did you recently change video cards? Turning off DX10 will kill your performance. -
Recently, a company that performs high-definition restorations of old photographs, was asked by the Library of Congress to apply their magic to a collection of photos dating from the American Civil War (1860s), into the 1920s. The resulting images are, well, astounding in their clarity.

Invisible Wheels or Hover Craft Syndrome?
Fubar512 replied to Geary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yes, but the X-wings and Y-wings have retractable skids, and TIEs of all flavors were supported by racks when not in use (they could sit on their vertical fins, but as they did not carry a boarding ladder as a weight savings measure, it made it all but impossible for their pilots to board them from the "ground") -

Sheeesh... Haven't either of you seen Star Wars? That's an early model land-speeder. -
Hazy Effect
Fubar512 replied to warthog64's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
That DX10 shader effect was introduced at least two (and possibly three) years ago. -
We've all encountered these, TV ads which are silly, but still manage to make one laugh. This is one of my favorites, advertising the "on-demand" service from my cable TV provider: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJKu7zspZA8

As I read this, I somehow kept hearing "Ring of fire" by Johnny Cash playing in my head......"And it burns, burns, burns....the ring of fire"

Hi Erik! The water's fine, why don't you jump on in?

Well, being that a white is in the same family as a mako or a salmon shark, it should have a similar taste...although that "taste" (at least in the white shark's case) may cost you upwards of $10,000 after you pay the fine for purposely killing one.

None for the Togo Imperium or the Nigerian Air Force? Wait until Wrench and Sparkomatic find out about this!

A Couple Questions

Asshats: http://www.liveleak....=831_1370023574 Maybe it's just me, but it seems that the older I get, the more I care about animals, and the less I care about humans. A significant portion of humanity seems to serve no other purpose than to eat, crap, breed, take up space, waste oxygen, and commit every crime imaginable. Just like the two low lifes mentioned in the article.

May 2013 patch issue with graphics
Fubar512 replied to warthog64's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Because it's not 4X antialising, it is 16x. Bit position 4 = 16. -
