Lightweight placeholders: F-84F
macelena posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
View File Lightweight placeholders: F-84F Again, just some fixes to make stock F-84Fs flyable with stock resources You will need SF2 (the basic, desert one) since this uses both A-4B and F-100D elements (the manual says SF2V doesn't include A-4Bs, and the compressed files seem to agree, i can't tell since i'm on the complete edition) It should just drop in the mods folder and ask you to overwrite a couple of things, if you have any issue with the fix just tell me.

Lightweight placeholders
macelena replied to macelena's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I'm not sure about what could be the issue exactly, the only pattern i've been able to see is the FPS drop with the amount of mods i have installed. Loading might be taking longer, but if so it is not by a noticeable amount. It seems the issue is with the graphics card and the game not being able to be as efficient as one might expect, but then again i'm just a caveman with a laptop. -
Lightweight placeholders
macelena replied to macelena's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Thanks a lot, the issue is not only with mods, but also with vanilla when the sky is way too crowded or weather is heavy, but it seems to have significantly more issues with anything like bmp or lod 3d party files being read from the mod folder. Normally i have all settings at max and it goes smoothly, even with crowded carriers on Iceland original terrain. -

Proper mods take a severe toll in my laptop, so these are ini edits to provide a cockpit and make stock aircraft flyable using only stock resources. That being said, there are much better mods that are much closer to the real thing, i only provide this in case normal mods cause performance issues in your install It uses the MystereIVA cockpit with Mirage sights, so besides SF2I you need EXP 1. It has certain issues, among other things, it is basically a single engine, two cannon cockpit with a two engine, four cannon aircraft, so you only get gauges for one engine, and i don't even want to look at the ammo counter. Any other issues or suggestions, don't hesitate to send me a message -

That being said, there are much better mods that are much closer to the real thing, i only provide this in case normal mods cause performance issues in your install These are a few edits to make DLC28 and stock Starfighters flyable Basically, i used stock Crusader cockpits and tweaked them a little bit to serve as placeholders, so you will need SF2V, and to already have the aircraft themselves either (or both) from SF2E and DLC28 F-104As are a basic F-8C cockpit with an F-4E gunsight Most others (F-104C, F-104C(61), F-104G, CF104 and CF104(72)) are the same plus a ground search radar And F-104C (66) and CF104(76) add an audio only RWR If any issue arises, please tell me, will try to fix ASAP. -

I wish you luck. My sister was at the frontline too and she was miserable for several weeks after killing the bug off, while she is 26, the thing is people take time but usually get to recover fully, i hope you can do too.

Sharks that queue up to get hooks removed....sharks communicate..seems so
macelena replied to russouk2004's topic in The Pub
So she duct tapes chainmail and dives to help sharks by getting her hand in their mouth and pull out fishing hooks, and pet them. And then they tell other sharks to come looking for mommy for help and petting. And i felt pretty badass when i managed to flush the toilet after Christmans eve. -

Strike Fighters 2 Complete again
macelena replied to MigBuster's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters Series News
Well, we will say you died with your boots on. And nothing but the boots. If you had been there at the time or the lazercats and electric eels, this was the shitpost community before it was cool. The other guys drop the tanks as soon as they engage by default, even if it is a heavy on BVR. Let them bitch, chances are they will have to row the way home anyways after they decide to not fire their missiles and duel Soviet bomber tail-gunners. -
Strike Fighters 2 Complete again
macelena replied to MigBuster's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters Series News
Now that you mentioned, my new rig is fairly decent but i just got quite low FPS in a campaign with SAMs, bad weather and a lot of aircraft in the air -
It gave me "Overlord" vibes, which to me was dumb and awesome fun.

I have Win 10 and i'm running the Complete Edition without any issue, what is it that has to be updated exactly? -
Thanks a lot, that group looks great.

I was trying to find out if RAAF Mirages were given some sort of RWR at any point in their service life, can anybody tell me anything on the issue or point me to some sources about it?

Lighweight placeholders: Arab Mirages
macelena posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
View File Lighweight placeholders: Arab Mirages These are a few files to make DLC28 LARAF and EAF Mirages flyable Requires SF2I and Mirage3EL DLC, as it uses Nesher and Mirage3EL cockpits I just added dtmdragon's sight fixes for Nesher and Mirage3Os, and audio RWR. There are more juicy mods around, but if you like keeping it down to a few INI fixes, this does the trick. Just drop contents in your SF2 mod folder and everything should go where it has to. If something goes wrong, blame me and me alone, and please send a PM with the issue, will fix ASAP. Can't promise anything since I've become a mature and dependable professional and I'm supposed to be busy all day, but tell me anyway. Submitter macelena Submitted 12/24/2020 Category Jet Cockpits -

Spanish Air Force retires C-130s
macelena replied to macelena's topic in Military and General Aviation
It only took a look at the old pics from that time that we kept around in the company to realize how nuts it was for the old timers. -
Couldn't find a link in English, but basically, they all got replaced by A-400Ms. I've seen them both fly past quite lately since i got stationed near Zaragoza AB, but to be honest, it makes you feel old knowing the aircraft you used to jump from are museum-worthy stuff now.

Spanish Air Force retires C-130s
macelena replied to macelena's topic in Military and General Aviation
Besides being more modern, it is meant to be somewhere between a C-130 and a C-17. I talked to my Sgt, who is still in the unit, and they are loving it compared to the C-130. -
I'm back! Trying to get up to date
macelena posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
After a few years in which i have been kind of busy, having now put my life in order (more or less) i can spend more time on the hobby, which i've been missing. So hi to all the Old Guard, and nice to see all the new ones. What's new on the game? I had presumed it more or less dead, but after getting the complete edition, i saw there is an update expected for Win 10. Anything on what is planned or expected? -
I'm back! Trying to get up to date
macelena replied to macelena's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yes, i got kicked out of the unit after i messed up my collarbone a bit, but got back on track and I'm back on NCO/WO training as an Electronics Specialist (it is going to be hard). I could still get a slot back in the unit once i graduate and get back to jumping, but i would be mostly in charge of a maintenance workshop fixing radios, NVGs and stuff. That Herc is looking great, still my greatest real life Hate-Love affair with aviation. Kind of nostalgic having them replaced with A-400Ms. I might PM you about the F-4J_74 by the way, I made a Northern Sabre campaign back in the day just to play with them. While i didn't include the mod in the pack itself, i had a couple of edits done wich might be interesting.
