Looks like you have a missing TGA. I had the same problem a couple years ago when I ported files from one install int another. It turned out to be a missing aircraft fuel fire tga you will have to look at the callouts in the ini's and make sure you have the corresponding TGA's in your effects folder.

Blue /grey camo in that pattern would be kickass on the 106.

I noticed you are using the new third wire skins on the crab 02 F-4S... do those skins fit that model or did you have to edit them?

My pleasure glad to help

I saw the trailer for the movie that caused the attack.... It was much like a Mel Brooks movie. It's time for these asshats to learn how to take a joke. I am really getting sick of these extremists

Sweet you were able to edit aircraft position? nice. It also would be cool to re skin the midways aircraft for an 80's scenario.

I don't remember how the effect looked but do you have FAEBombEffects ini in your effects folder and called out in the weapon data?

[ ote] I don't think it matters... we can do nothing and he will lock files or we can be proactive and he will lock files . Don't take offense at this metaphor- but in my opinion you guys are looking at it like battered wives who continue to take the abuse and are afraid of what would happen if you fight back. I say F**k it - I am not taking this s**t any more. I fully support the idea of a community cat extractor. I keep a fully modded and beautiful install at the june 2010 patch level... its Awesome! I also keep an April 2012 sf2na install just for naval intercept missions and naval strike... that is the only thing I use it for Because the terrain is hideous. My opinion the state of the current game is totally hosed and I am not happy with it at all. I believe that until we gain understanding of the new terrain engine ( which is locked to us) the current game will remain nearly worthless. On top of that there are a multitude of other issues, I see this game getting worse and worse with each patch, at some point you just have to cut your losses and pick a patch level to stay with.

] It is sad, very sad. The main problem, as I see it ... is that TK does not really care what his long term customers want. And when people try to explain to him that this is a problem, he gets offended.

You have to buy yap they wont just sell you the missions. Also I think I remember having to edit the callouts to get the cockpit to show up because TK changed the callouts when he updated his pits for SF2- this bird uses an F-4 pit.

Thats my screen shot in SF2E... The yap RF-8G works beautifully in SF2E

Are those Third wire DLC skins on the Crab02 F-4S model? Do they fit that model or did you have to edit them?

If only it had the variety of aircraft available in SF2, I would make the move.

Is that new? It was always in the flight engine ini .

Yep... that includes the whole SF2 forum. Guys are dropping like flies.... and now that Dave is Done with SF2 its gonna get real quiet. Do ya think TK even has a clue that he cut off his nose to spite his face.

No thanks TK... but if you would like to upgrade the SF2NA terrain into something usable I might be interested in that.

In game screen shots or it didn't happen .

Have you tought about using the older F-4S that used to be on column 5's site ( I believe it was done by Crab02) It has a much more accurate nose contour than the mirage factory S or the third wire J.

I was talking about the new Third wire skin pack.

Funny thing is that most of those tps and the heater ferris jets were F-4S not F-4J. VF-103 had a couple of f-4J's in early 82 according to my info, but the other squadrons flew the F-4S.

lol :suicide2:

I could not disagree more. A ton has changed since we last had access to the cat files. We have a brand new terrain engine at our disposal and not a clue of its inner workings, for us to even begin to utilize the new engine we must understand it. can you imagine what a guy like Stary could accomplish with that engine once he fully understood it. I realize that you are concerned that you may piss TK off... on the flip side he is sure not showing any concern towards pissing off the people who have supported him, and bought every one of his titles. Perhaps you do not wish to put in your valuable time working on a new extractor, that is understandable. However Just because some asshats in china miss used your third party cat extractor does not mean that the community should be forever denied access to such a great tool in an updated form. Just my opinion.

They don't show up as flyable ? or the game is not selecting them as AI aircraft in the missions?

Welcome back Veltro. you might want to look into the mapping software products by 3d-io, My link .

I remembered this XF-108 project. Damn search button , I searched for it just a couple weeks ago and came up with nothing, thought I was losing my mind
