Minimum number of decals?
ndicki replied to ndicki's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Thanks, Russ. I'd thought that might be it - usually I do say 15 or 16, and still find they don't work. The thing is, the ones I'm using can only appear on four aircraft in the wing... So I'll have to randomise the others. Good trick, Henrik! Thanks, too. -
Anyone like Bf109s?
ndicki replied to ndicki's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
This any use to you? September 1942. Unfortunately it's impossible to do a version with the higher delimitation between the colours, owing to the way the model is mapped. -

Russo's 109E is very nice. Here's one I've been messing about at using his template. Still needs a bit of work to line a few things up correctly. -

It is weathered. Much more weathering and it'll be back to the metal! Unfortunately it doesn't show as crisply in SF as in... -

Easy enough to do. Wait a bit... -

I know - and good as they are (not kidding!), I still like to do my own sometimes... Your FWs are all installed already, as are your Bf109 mods. So I haven't missed you! Well worth the visit - Thanks! -
WW2 aircraft glass?
ndicki posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I'm setting up a WW2 install with Wolf257 and Dev A-Team/Capun's aircraft, and I've noticed that many of them do not seem to have any glass in the windows - yet in other people's screenshots, they do have. Has anyone else had this? I've tried looking through the LOD files with a hex editor to find the bmp and tga files, but they are all there. So...? I'm in SF2 - that may make a difference. Any ideas? -
WW2 aircraft glass?

Thanks, Killerbee and Dave. It now works perfectly. (And I've learnt two things...) See what I meant about red?! -

OK. I misread Killerbee's post higher up... Off to try. -
WW2 aircraft glass?
ndicki replied to ndicki's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
No. Normally, they aren't, are they? (Quick check...) No. And no. Good thinking, but that doesn't seem to be the trouble. -
Winzip thing
ndicki replied to i fight by 1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I've used Winzip for years and never had that. Having said that, I've now got 7z as well - Column5 oblige - and it works very well. -
WW2 aircraft glass?
ndicki replied to ndicki's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Got them, as issued. The B-17G, for example, has three: B-17_GLASS.TGA, CanopyGlass.tga, ClearCANOPYGLASS.TGA I have checked with a hex editor to see if any appear to be missing - they don't. And I've even replaced these three with solid red tga files (no alpha) just to see if anything shows up at all - nothing. Odd... Here are the B-17G and Bf109F, with the Bf109E for comparison. Note that on the Fort, some glasswork does show up around the lower half of the bomb-aimer's position, but not elsewhere. -
Stand firm, Israel.

This may come as a shock to some... It did me, anyway! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics...by-British.html

MIRAGE IVA WIP UPDATE
ndicki replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
(I'm starting to appreciate this sim more and more. The last time I could do this sort of fiddling around was in CFS2. CFS3 is much more "strict", although that helps to reduce online cheating.) -
MIRAGE IVA WIP UPDATE
ndicki replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Good idea - and I'd missed the Cheetah, which is an aircraft I've wanted for a long time. -
MIRAGE IVA WIP UPDATE
ndicki replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
And it's just got worse... Admittedly, don't look too hard, or you'll see the forward Mavericks biting into that odd dustbin-lid thingy under the fuselage, but... -

Far be it from me to suggest any unrealistic "what-iffing", but does this interest anyone? -

MIRAGE IVA WIP UPDATE
ndicki replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Hi Veltro - Thanks for a nice-looking aircraft! So I couldn't resist the temptation... But for some reason, I can't get the decals to show on the rear fuselage. Probably getting the mesh name wrong. Could you tell me the correct name for the area marked? Thanks! -
Dassault Mirage IVA V.1.1
ndicki replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
Very nice aircraft - so I couldn't resist trying to make an RAF version... Could you tell me the name of the tail-area mesh below the tailfin, around the engines, though? I can't get the serial number decals to show! -

Ah, OK - Thanks!
