I remember that we use to be able to just copy and paste screen shots, now we have to use the http:// setup? What lead to this format and why make it harder to post shots on the form? Thanks

Aaaaaahhh, thanks

Broken my intentions already. Progress update:- Resized to 68% (was 1024 x 1024) - Click image to enlarge Campaign Files (Air War only) completed. Here's the backstory:- Kamchatka Peninsula, Far East, 2010 The discovery of a vast oilfield in the Sea of Okhotsk brings the promise of great wealth and prosperity to this remote region. The largely non-Russian population is vocal in pressing for independence. These claims are flatly denied by the Kremlin, which refuses to allow the disintegration of the Russian Federation and the loss of the massive mineral wealth and strategic importance of the area. The situation is brought to crisis point when the Far East Military District Generals unilaterally declare independence from Moscow, and claim sovereignty over the Eastern Russian Empire. With military resources stretched to breaking point, and having suffered the mutiny of the entire Eastern Command, Moscow thinks the unthinkable and seeks United States military assistance in stabilising the region. America is reluctant to be drawn into a bloody Russian civil war, but when Japan takes advantage of the situation by occupying the long-disputed southern Kuril Islands, the Eastern Russian Generals order an all-out offensive to maintain the borders of their new Empire. With the blessing of the UN and Moscow, the President orders USFJ Command to protect civilian lives, destroy enemy air assets, and comply with treaty obligations by assisting in the defence of Japan. . . Air war features all USN (CVW-5), USAF (44th & 67th FS (F-15C); 13th & 14th FS (F-16C Blk 50)), and USMC (VMFA(AW)-242 "Bats") units stationed in the area. All JASDF units are flyable. Red Side consists of the air units of: 11th VVS & PVO Army (Far East Military District), flying SU-24M, SU-35 (too good to miss out), MiG-31M, SU-27; the Russian Naval Aviation Units of Pacific Ocean Fleet, flying TU-22K and TU-95M (as stand-ins for TU-22M3 and TU-142), plus 387 IAP flying TMF's MiG-29C_rus. Still to be done:- Airfield flattening and alignment Adding selected air units of 14th VVS & PVO Army (Siberian Military District) Adding ground war Basic terrain targetisation (sorry Wrench, this won't be pretty, but it will work) Fine-tuning front line for disputed Southern Kuril Islands Adding terrain_movement routes for all mission types Adding more Russian airbases on Sakhalin Adding more Japanese cities Adding Naval Bases for all forces What won't make the first cut:- Anything to do with China, North or South Korea. Sorry, but I had to draw the line there as I want to keep this manageable on a short timescale. Cheers for now, Baltika Baltika, what is the status of this WIP? Can't wait to use the RoKAF and JSDAF on your Map?

Looking forward to your modern Japanese Terrain

Baltika, Any chance of showing some updates on these terrains? Thanks

To the Banidos Team, 1. Do I have all your permission to try to convert this fighter to SF2? 2. Would it be very difficult to convert to SF2 merged install since it is ONLY for WOI originally? Thank You

I apology first if this question has been answered. Just got my new computer with Window 7. I would like to confirm with the community that the proper file download is base on the Vista or the Xp setup? I downloaded on the C: program files, all works but after starting the game for the first time I am unable to find the proper files for each game SF2V & E. I just deleted everything and starting all over. Any help would be great... On Xp they will be here (By default) C:\Documents and Settings\<Name>\My Documents\ThirdWire\ On Vista: C:\Users\<Name>\Saved Games\ThirdWire\

Thanks for the confirmation.

I know this is not the proper forum to ask. Sundowner, always appreciate your F-4 Phantom work, excellent! Are you working on "ALL" the phantoms? The Turkis Phantom 2020 and other aircraft and skin from all the phantom users for SF2? Thanks for the reply when you have time.

Wow, very nice... where can you download the helo?

Kevin, is the middle photo an updated A-7 cockpit and HUD avionics? Looks sweet!

To the TEAM! WOW!!! What a MOD! Still waiting for my "new" rig to get here, I think I will enjoy this very much. Any chance you guys can make Wings over Taiwan (Formosa)? With 60's and 70's fighter jets?

Love it!!!! Another find job Spillone104

I thought I ask more questions since I received good information from the community. The following is my plan "new" machine: Intel Core i7-875K 2.93GHz 8M (OC by 10%, part of cyberpowercomputer auto setup) so it will be around 3.2 GHz. Asus P755D-E Pro DDR3, USB 3.0 SATA III, etc... 4GB DDR3/1600MHz Corsair ATI 5770 1GB GDDR5 16xPCIe 1TB SATA-III 6.0GB/s 64MB cache 7200RPM Hard-drive Asetek 570LX Liquid Cooling w/240MM radiator/dual fans (OC) ThermalTake Toughpower XT (TPX-775M, 775 Watts power supply Samsung SH-BO 83L 8x Blue Ray/ DVDRW Combo Window 7 64-Bit Plus several other items = $1399 without tax and shipping Please provide inputs as to whether this is a good setup? Thanks

Need to buy a new computer, making an order today... at least by the end of the week. Going through a lot of detail information on various computer components? Which game cards that you guys would recommend? Looking at the following: GTX 470 and 480 ATI 5770, 5830, 5850, and 5870 Divergent Questions: Any "fan" and "power supply" recommendations (looking at 750 and up with Crossfire/SLI cert.)? Also, Cyberpowercomputers or Ibuycomputers, which would you order from? I am pointing toward cyberpower. Thanks

Another nice work Wrench! VF-84 Phantom on Hsinchu AB, never thought of that...

Thank you again guys For the water cooling, it came as a FREE upgrade. The 10% OC on the CPU is also part of the deal, FREE of charge (or maybe they charge people in the price already?). Read that the NEW Core i7-880 is coming very soon and will cost about the same as the 870 series; would love to wait on it but I think the difference is small and I would never notice it. The PSU, I do not have a lot of choices on PSU. Cyberpowercomputer has their own, Corsair, ThermalTake, Sion, CoolerMaster, SilverStone, Ultra, Apevia, XtremeGear... NO Seasonic. Looking at PSU with 80%+ efficiency, ATI/SLI/80 Plus Bronz certification and 12V rail. Will be looking at a good PSU before ordering. Game card - I wanted the ATI 5870 but due to budget I thought a 5770 would last me a long time and not think about upgrades for a while.

WOW! Thank you all for the excellent inputs. fallenliberty - excellent article Von Paulus - thank you for sharing the article and your personal info. DAVE - what can I say... you know how to burn up your equipment, and it is Alienware of all equipments? But your dog had fun playing it... Lexx_Luthor - thanks for the info. Looks like I will be looking at Asus Motherboards with full USB 3.0/ SATA III, etc... and ATI 5770 or 5870 single card? So many ways to configure your rig!?

Thank you Wrench! Hope to see more ROC paint schemes.

Thanks for the input Getting a LGA 1156 P55 from Gigabyte, UD4P version with Core i7-875K. Thinking of 2 x 5770 with Crossfire setup or just one ATI 5870. Budget is around $1800. Additional inputs will be appreciated.

To all the Modders... Is anyone working on the updated Mirage F-1 aircraft (SF1 and/or SF2)? Love to see Mirage F-1CR/CT and the F-1M2000 Thanks

Yes, I have asked it before. Just wondering if there is any status to the project or is it just place it on hold, or being just kept for private use?

Another great skin!!!
