All the aircraft in the photo are "E" models. The three that had gray and green camo are "upgraded" F-5E to full F-5EM, with new radar, new EFIS avionics, full HUD and other structural upgrades. The tan and brown camo is the original FAB's ordered F-5E waiting to be upgraded. As for the vertical tail. The vertical tail with the extended spin, if you will... was one of the E models that FAB ordered. The one without the tail are all ex-USAF Aggressor aircrafts that FAB got from the USA in the late 80's to early 90's, not sure the exact time frame. The extended spin is an improve version of the E/F for stability and aerodynamic improvements.

Anyone, I downloaded the weapon_data from JAS-39C to the WOI weapon_data file using the next weapondataxxx (the next number down the long list). When I go to the loadout on the JAS-39C, I do not see any of the modern weapons, such as the Meator FAMRAAM missile? what could be the cause? As for the skin, same situation. I download the texturexxx (next number down the texture list) and I do not see the skin as an option on the aircraft that I have selected. Although, some of the sking that I added does show up, some do not... yet I use the same process? I read all the "readme" files and use the knowledge base process, but something is wrong? Thanks

Spectre_USA Hey, didn't mean to type your name wrong... First, my original problem was that I downloaded a weapon editor when in the WOI "object" folder there is already one installed. I click on it and change the properties so that it will work under Window98 as an option. Did all the things that you described and so far I have yet to see the new weapons on my loadouts. I just changed some of the new weapons start year and end year, as well as, the export and end export year.... Hoping that this will make the weapons available? Read your article, very nice... Cheers

Ok, solve the problems of weapon load via the aircraft config.data. Still trying to figure out the weapon editor???

Spectra, It is not working man.... I tested the weaponeditor by adding MICA and IRIS-T, I successfully added the weapons to the weaponeditor via import/merg function, then I use what USAFMTL describe by clicking on the new weapon and then click OK when the screen pop up. I just check the game, no MICA/ IRIS-T weapon on JAS-39C loadout... in addition, I have been trying to fix the weapon loadout on my F-4EJ "Kai" (which had zero weapons on the loadout, just the main center tank!?) Tell me... I right click the weaponeditor and went on the compatability section and add Window98 to make it compatable but what does that do? I do not think the weaponeditor is link to WOI weapondata.INI at all... I am missing something. I try to just copy weapondata from the specific weapons from the a/c's weapon folder and past it on the main WOI aircraft weapondata file. This method did not work either???

OK USAFMTL I follow your instructions under getting the weapon editor to work on Window and got it going. Now, more quetions? The editor right now is completely blank. Do I past all my weapons on the editor and make modifications on the editor? How do I transfer my weapon editor work back to the weapondata? Thanks

USAFMTL As always, you and many of the senior members, have been great in helping people. I download the weaponeditor, searching through the combatace thread as to how to use it, so far no luck... I do not know how to operate it. I unzip the file and click on the icon, nothing??? Where to I place the folder and open the files? Thanks

Most unfortunate that it is no longer on CombatAce. The site above require payment to get access to the download

How do you get to "capun's" site?

Gocad, Thanks for the information. Now more stupid question... I would have to download the "weaponeditor" and then modified the weapons that I want to add "via" the weaponeditor before sending them to the weapondata files? Is the weaponeditor user friendly or you have to be a rocket scientest to figure the process out? Is there a different weaponeditor for each of the Thirdwire products SF1/WOV/WOE/WOI? I am just learning the ropes here, I do appreciate the patients and time in aswering my questions. I know I will probably do better by just reading the whole knowledge base and mod section on this form... Again, thanks

My friends Call me stupid... I have try to add new skins to fighters on WOI, but it is not showing up? Anyone. Please describe the step by step procedure in adding a new skin? Ex: I try to add a ROC F-16 skin on the F-16A Block 15 OCU (BAF), no luck... does not show up? I appreciate any help. cheers

OK, I got it... try and try again... always work-out at the end

Pilot is in the cockpit and the afterburner is roaring loud! Thanks again gang...

Gentleman, Thanks for the information... I will make the changes now... Cheers

My good friends, HELP HELP HELP!!! I am having problems with EF2000. The pilot on my EF2000 is sitting below the cockpit and I have no afterburner affects? I have tried searching the thread for answers because I remember reading on this forum that someone had the same problems that I have. Current seat postion is 0.0, 3.777, 1.166 I try to change the numbers but no luck? As for the afterburners...? Thanks

My fellow friends at this FORUM, Please bear with me as I ask this stupid question. I would like to know how to set my WOV so that I have an opportunity to fly my F-4 off an aircraft carrier and land on the aircraft carrier? Do I have to play the campaign to do it, or can I play a single mission and set it up? Your information will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks TurtleHawk,

WOI would be perfect! I have only WOI and WOV... I was not sure of getting WOE when it came out. But of course whichever mod is made it will be great, cannot just think of myself only, right. After all, this is the community. Cheers

Hey 76.IAP Blackbird Thanks for the info. I thought I miss an important key button or something. It would be nice to open your canopy after you land and finished with a mission

HrntFixr Does this EF-2000 allow you to open canopy and IFR probe via switches in the cockpit? As far as I know, none of the WOI/WOE/WOV has switch functions for opening canopy or IFR probe. Again, great work! Thanks

EXCELLENT!!! Can't wait to fly the plane. Is this going to be flyable on WOI or WOE or all the "Third Wire Product?" Too bad I cannot help... I hope it is on "exe" file and NOT "rar" file... Keep up the good work!!! Cheers

EricJ and Amokfloo... you guys ROCK! This will be a nice addition. Will this F/A-18F be for WOI or WOE or ALL the Third Wire product? It would be nice if in the VERY NEAR FUTURE there will be Mirage 2000-5 MKII, Mirage F-1CT, and Rafale to be made. I wish I can help but I am still learnig about aircraft add-on and the basic of making AI airplane fly... Keep up the excellent work!

Happy Birthday USAFMTL!!!

Hey Talos, Thanks for the great work! When ever you can... Please make the files with any of the JSDF aircrafts or weapon packs that you made (I am assuming it is you) be workable with WOI with "exe" file format if you could. I think the "rar" format screws up the operating files for the WOI game. But, what do I know???? Thank you very much for let us gamers have a blast with these add-ons! Cheers

Thank you USAMTL, Your instructions are excellent, now if I can only follow it correctly I will definitely get it down when I get back in mid April! Boy, I can't wait to see all the neat stuff!!!!! Too bad I have to wait 5 weeks! Another question? Is there an "editor" for making the "aircraft" compatiable with WOI? I appreciate the patients and the help guys! Cheers
