Bubbletops of the 8th
warthog64 replied to amariani's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I've read in multiple sources that the first "bubble top" P-47s were delivered to combat groups in May 1944. I'm 100% certain that the 4th, 352nd, 355th, and 359th never flew the bubbletop P-47 since they all converted to the P-51 before the bubbletop P-47 was available. the 361st transitioned to the P-51 the same month the first bubbletop P-47 became available, so I'm 99% certain they never flew the bubbletop P-47. The 358th did fly the bubbletop P-47 but this was only after they were reassigned to the 9th AF. Therefore the only other group that probably flew the bubbletop P-47 was the 356th which transitioned to the P-51 in November of 1944. This website is a good source for the timelines of the 8th AF groups. https://8thafhs.org/fightergrps.htm -
Prowler decals issue
warthog64 posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I've been having a problem with the decals on the stock SF2NA EA-6B. I have an Operation Eldorado Canyon installation where the EA-6B decals show up fine. I also have an Operation Darius installation and for some reason the decals never show up on the EA-6B. All the skins are from the prowler super pack BTW. I have checked the decals folder in the Darius install and everything that should be there is there, I've tried pretty much everything imaginable to try and fix this issue but to no avail. Has anyone else had this problem too? Thanks -
Prowler decals issue
warthog64 replied to warthog64's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Thanks for the help, I copied the squadronlist.ini from the eldo install into the darius install and it worked. It's strange though because the other squadronlist.ini that was already in the darius install had the exact same squadrons already listed and numbered correctly. -
Issue with sea harrier
warthog64 posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I'm having a strange issue with the sea harrier frs1. Whenever I try to pull positive g's in the aircraft SF2 will crash. No other aircraft has this problem and I can't figure out what is going on. Any ideas? -

That's a great book! Still have my copy I got back in '06. Osprey is certainly the best publisher of military books. -

Saudi Tornado F3?
warthog64 posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Wasn't there a Saudi skin for the Tornado F3 available somewhere? I know I had one in the past but I can't seem to find it now in my files. It may have been a part of a campaign or other package but I have no idea where it is. I checked the forum and can't seem to find anything. Thanks Everyone -

Graphics issue in Windows 10
warthog64 posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
About a month after I upgraded to windows 10 this past summer I started having a really strange graphics issue in SF2. I've just been ignoring it because it always goes away eventually, but now it's getting quite annoying. Here's an example Has anyone else had this issue? -

OA-10C Warthog
warthog64 replied to DEVIL11's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Just use this package. http://combatace.com/files/file/12476-a-10a-and-c-thunderbolt-ii-warthog-pack/ The A-10C and OA-10C are actually the exact same plane. There are no structural differences or modifications on the OA-10C variant. The only difference is that the OA-10C carries only target marking equipment (in addition to the GAU8 of course) and flies only Forward Air Control missions. So just modify the A-10C included in this package to represent an OA-10C using the criteria I provided. -
ASM's wont fire from La Combattante II
warthog64 posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I modified the La Combattante II class by acesfakia to carry the C-803K missile but for some reason the missiles won't fire when in range. The MM38 missiles worked fine before this change, but no other type of ASM seems to work. I have all the proper guidance info and other data entered correctly for all missiles but still no luck. Anyone have any clue? I've tried everything. Thanks -

Thanks KJakker, I'll give it a try and let you know ASAP -
Raven, I'd look on Craigslist or rentals.com for info on what's available. I'd recommend living on the south side of town if you can since it's the nicest part IMO. If you have questions about the town itself let me know.
-
Do you know what area of the town you'll be working in?
-
Are you planning on buying or renting? I'm somewhat familiar with the area, so I can provide some assistance.

Anyone tried StrikeFighters 2 with Windows 10?
warthog64 replied to Viper63a's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I upgraded to windows 10 today and SF2 runs great. I had issues at first but then I switched from my Intel graphics card to my NVidia graphics card and now it runs perfectly! -
