Two requests
Viper6 replied to verde13's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
go to downloads, WOI/WOE/WOV, then find the correct sub-section then find the file you are looking for. Ok i looked in Deuces files but it seems that the tileset is no longer available. I'm going to look up the carrier lights file. I could not either file so I'm assuming that they are no longer available. -
WOV F-4 Phantoms
Viper6 replied to GreyCap's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Thank you so much Mr. Wagsled for your time and insight. It is a Honor to have you here with us! I thank you for your service in Nam and for any stories you may share with us in the future. My ears are always open for you. For those of you that have the talent to design missions, you may want to hopefully talk with Mr. Wagsled and come up with some F-4 missions (just a thought) -
Carrier take-offs on single missions...
Viper6 replied to Wilches's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Also if you choose a Navy plane and select start from runway you should start from cat on the carrier. -
Some WOI improvements I like ...
Viper6 replied to tflash's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I like the over all toughness of the AI. I have yet to complete a campaing without being blown out of the sky while on a SEAD or Strike mission. A2A is not too tough as long as I fly smart. -
UPDATE: War for the Water, Attrition War, and Golan Stalemate Campaigns
Viper6 replied to Pancho's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
War for the Water is the only one i do not have and i have yet to get a CTD in any of the others maybe because I keep getting my butt blown off after like the 3rd or 4th mission. In any case I plan to get your War for the Water after TK is done with the bug fix. -
How to...
Viper6 replied to lagger123987's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Are you talking about single missions? If so you can choose a Aircraft that is not Israel but you must first download it so it will be available in the drop down menu. like a USAF F-4, download it into WOI and in the single menu it will be avaliable and you will be able to choose a lot of different countries and the squaderns that go along with that country. -
WOV F-4 Phantoms
Viper6 replied to GreyCap's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
This is yet another great reason I love this community! To Actually be able to read some comments from F-4 drivers and folks that know about her capabilities and faults is priceless! To tell the truth, I love the Mighty F-4! I'd say that i have just about ALL of them from every site i can find. I also use the info from you guys to help me in my fight against migs and my love of mud movin! -
How to add skin to aircraft?
Viper6 replied to ace888's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Your best bet is to look in the Knowledge Base it is broken into sub divisions so you can easily find your answer there. And whenever you find a file you want to download please read the readme text that comes with it. By doing so it will save you a lot of headaches -

WOV F-4 Phantoms
Viper6 replied to GreyCap's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I fly the F-4 a LOT and have found that if you do not keep your energy up, you find that it is a tough go, I never try to out turn migs i just take them into the vertical on AB or make sure that im at a great altitude before diving into them, make a pass then blaze away from them. I really love the F-4 in strike missions cause she can carry a big load. -
Speaking of SAMs

Ain't that the truth! -
Speaking of SAMs
Viper6 replied to Fubar512's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Indeed! takin your ac down in the weeds is NOT cool when there are ZSU's of ANY type around. Like i said before, the pilot is more than likely toast! the best that one could hope for is in lo and fast with mav's takin out the ZSU's and cluster bombing everything else while you pop chaff and flares. -
SAM launch! SAM launch!
Viper6 replied to Basher11's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Jeez! you are still flying straight and level? My ac would have been in a pretzel shape trying to get under the sams and radar! can you say gopher? lol well you survived TWO sam shots without even breakin stride -
What are you supposed to do with 30MT bomb
Viper6 replied to PIGHUNTA69's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
My guess is that you go as HIGH as you ride will take you, then let it go as you hit the AB and beat feet out of dodge. -
Damn comm buildings.
Viper6 replied to Longestpants's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I too know the pain of attacking the Comm Bldg, My adventure was in a F-4 (flight of 4) carrying LGB-10's (yes the big ones)all the perameters were met but after dropping them and looking in the rear view...nada I could not believe it! They missed! I then told my wingie to attack my target but he was promptly shot down I learned from that to always carry a backup load just in case. -
Speaking of SAMs
Viper6 replied to Fubar512's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
It's targets like these that blow me to bits. maybe a VERY fast lo level attack run with Mav's? how about cruise missle attack? Shrike to take out the radar then CBU's to mop up the rest? in any case will more than likely end up toast. -
I love coochie fish get it nice and hot and the juices just flow from it :yes: It is less filling and tastes great! btw you never have to worry about bones

Reforger II Update 4/18
Viper6 replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
And because of the anguish this is causing you, It never fails to amaze me how the modders and creators produce for the sole purpose of giving us the end user something to enjoy for free. My hat off to you pfunk for even trying to take on this endeavor and to all the modders and creators "Never have so many owed so much to so few" -
Will third wire ever make a navy specific game?
Viper6 replied to krgf15's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Wings over the Gulf? -
Ground pounding is NOT for every one and us that did do it really thank those that put the fast movers in the air and keep them flyin the crap that we put up with is FAR out weighed by the friends and experiences we meet and have along the way!

After lookin hi and lo in the KB, I could not find a answer so here it goes; some of my AC have chaff and flares and some dont. I've been playn WOI and can use these CM's but in WOV, and WOE my AC is not equipped with these CM's I'm speaking mainly about the F-4 in all the titles. Now i did not pay attention to see if it was a issue of stock AC vs addon (if that even makes a difference) In any case any and all feedback will be greatly appreciated. Viper6 out!

Mirage III CJ Handles Like A Dumptruck
Viper6 replied to NeverEnough's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I actually like and enjoy the challenge of trying to down ac's that turn better than mine the ai in WOI has turned me into a better pilot, now i must fly smarter even before i try to mix it up with migs stick and move baby btw i STILL have not been able to finish a campaing without being shot down. I would not have it any other way lol My Karnass has taken a real beating -
I grew up with the USAF born on Vandenburg AFB and I feel things have changed so much it has come to this. on a sad note my brother was in the AF (Davis Monthan) and he took his own life after DS because he could not get help for depression some desk flyer felt he was not in need of help.
