KC-135
Spectre_USA replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Did you check for typos in the DATA.INI WDH? Betcha there's a period where a coma should be. I do that WAY too often... -
I LOL'd here at work at that 1st line, ya weasel drivin' hill-billy, you! Unsure about the maxsteering setting, as that is at home on the game rig. I knew I should have copied it over to the server before leaving for work so I could run LogMeIn, but was running late. IIRC, it was 60, and the NWS lines did not show a negative number at all. Will check when I get home. I did change something about castor from true to false, as casters are unsteerable IRL, but that did not help...

Just got around to checking out the newest (V1.7) version of the newest, grooviest USAF jet IRL, the F-35 by Klavs81. I have no problem-o rolling out, hitting the sky, and whacking baddies with it, but when I hit the F6 key to see how tight my wingie is, I see him wandering aimlessly in the grass like a unicorn or something. His nose wheel is pointing in the correct directions, and seems to be on the ground, sorta, but he and the others are just doota-dooting around, trying to get the nose pointed in the right direction, and failing miserably. Anyone else see this? Bad CG? I've putzed with a few settings to no effect. FM's skeer me. Help? I kinda like backup when the baddies are about...

Yeah, I noticed about mid-November that it no longer had the month in its title. The burn-out fact would have been huge doing it every month, I am sure... -
F4D-1

Just the new patch, CL, it is all inclusive to each sim. If you are going to combine them, like I did, do the patch for each before combining them... -

Nah, it will be the 20th, Inauguration day, and my birthday... -
BLUFOR SAMs
Spectre_USA replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
That has always been a sore point for me, Blue Force SAMs suck rocks! I now remember why I did not do a full un-, then re-install, as I had things tweaked in to be half ways decent with SAMs. I love dragging some MiG back to base, and watching a few plumes reach out and touch them! No such luck, as even the Hawks aren't showing up on the "new" Bering Straits map. I just got to keep searching and fiddling, darnit... -

Cool! 2 bears in as many weeks? We must be living well. Many thanks Veltro! -

The same thing happened to me last night with a modern timeframe, as I bumped up the dates. Need to find something different for armor, I reckon. Ranks of immobile firecans versus MRLS was not worth flying 300 miles for... -
TU-95 Bear Update
Spectre_USA replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I hope I am not disrespecting your very fine work by my "Air-2a" magnet comment, but it is true. Ever since I read about, and heartily laughed about, this missile, while in training for the USAF, I envisioned a gaggle of Bears, and how it would turn out. More strikingly, even if it COULD work out. I am gonna rummage through backups to find this rascal in Bunyaps pack and re-install it in anticipation. The one-oh-wonder and Delta Dart are next on the nostalgia install list. Many thanks for allowing this to come to fruition soon, after over 25 years hoping to some day visualize the scenerio...
