To keep things neat, place it within a sub folder inside of the weapons folder. The sub folder should contain that tank's .ini file, the tank's .lod files, and any bitmaps used by that tank. The folder and .ini file need to be named exactly the same, as this is what is referenced by the weapondata.dat in order for that tank (or weapon) to be made available.

Water Effects
Fubar512 replied to gerwin's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
The size and type of normal file may have some bearing on that. Try the shader effects I uploaded a while back, it uses a larger waternormal file, in an alpha-channel corrected .tga format. It causes the effect to appear to be semi-transparent. -
Weapons effects must be associated with their related weapons. Depending on the effect type, you'll find those associations in the missileobject.ini, the bulletobject.ini, the weapondata.ini, or in the gundata.ini. You'll find the visual effect association for the nuke explosion, in the missileobject.ini. Regarding the damage caused by nukes in this series, you must keep in mind that trees and some buildings aren't objects at all, hence they will not be effected by any explosion, irregardless of yield. OTH, solid objects have a damage value that can be adjusted, but be aware that if you make them vulnerable to a shock-wave sort of an effect, a single .30 cal round would probably destroy them, as well.

Ah! The old SPS (Serta Perfect Sleeper) backup landing system.

We won't see the VI here, until next September.

Yes it is, and the Ford ad your talking about was for the Sport Ka. They had a "Pigeon versus hood (bonnet for you UK-types)" ad for that one, too.

This add was supposedly banned in the UK: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arfNofxBtfY&NR=1

Need Help! (Extract Utility)
Fubar512 replied to vhill's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The SFP1E does not need to be set in compatability mode. Out of curiousity, do you have MS Office 2007 installed on that system? -
LORAN, CA_Stary? So you can fly from TD to TD (Time Differential), and bomb yet another TD? The LORAN "A" used back then had 50-meter accuracy (at best). By the mid-1980s, I was using LORAN "C", with 10-meter accuracy. OK for navigation on the water, but over land, even the LORAN C signals developed parallax errors, on the order of up to 10-microseconds.

Try reinstalling it. -
Is this an .ini issue
Fubar512 replied to bigal1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Off center thrust, or unequal landing gear values would be my first two guesses. -
SA-11 & 17 SAM systems

Nice model. Perhaps you'd consider adding this in the future, to complete the Buk system deployment: -

AFAIK, neither the AA-6 nor AA-7s were carried by either the Flanker, or the Fulcrum. The Flanker and Fulcrum shared essentially the same AAM types throughout the 1980s, the AA-8B/C, and the AA-10 series. -

Your problem is most likely due to service dates. Neither the AA-11 (R-73), nor the AA-12 (R-77), were available until the early 1990s. Even then, a typical Fulcrum loadout would have consisted of all-aspect AA-8B or AA-8C (R-60M or R-60MK) IRMs, on the outer pylons. -
Black Friday has become the national holiday of the FRRAA (Free Range Rude Arsehole Association). They, in concert with the ADL (Anti Destination League), team up to kick off the Christmas and Holiday season, with a one-two punch. You first encounter the ADL on almost every major road. Their mission in life is simple, to do their absolute best to ensure that one does not make it to their destination in one piece, or at the very least, without being aggravated by their lack of courtesy and common sense, while driving. If one manages to run the ADL gauntlet, and successfully makes it to their destination (say, a shopping mall), they will then be greeted by the FRRAA. There is obviously some overlap between the two groups, as one might initially see FRRAA members behind the wheel, blocking the access roads to and from mall parking lots while attempting to find a parking spot nearest the mall entrance. They have been known to sit for hours, waiting for that certain spot to open, despite the availability of several hundred open parking slots (that are all within reasonable walking distance of the mall entrance). Perhaps this explains why many of the FRRAA also tend to exhibit the symptoms of LA (Lardass). And this is just the beginning..... Once inside the mall, one immediately notices a similarity between FRRAA family units; Husband: overweight, disheveled appearance, deficit in the personal hygiene department, and attempting to make up for the latter by bathing in copious quantities of cheap aftershave or cologne. Moves in a sloth-like manner, denoting a total reliance on lower brain-functions. If one should be so lucky as to secure the services (or at least the attention of) of a sales clerk, FRRAA husband always seems to find a way to rudely interrupt the clerk who is right in the middle of explaining the advantages of one large screen television over another. Wife: Shrill, and often quite large (approximate girth equaling or surpassing that of her spouse). Her attitude leaves no doubt as to her role as master and commander of the family unit's shopping "expedition"; extremely rude, resorts to communicating in banshee-like tones while simultaneously swatting at her equally rude and undisciplined progeny. FRRAA wife gets under your skin by rudely cutting in front of you at the checkout line, and then, leaving her shopping cart as a place holder in said line, while she runs off on on excursion to the outermost, hereto unexplored regions of the store, in search of that "special" gift for herself (such as a thong meant for someone half her diameter).... I won't even go as far as describing their offspring, as that would just be mean.
