  2. Georgia moves against separatists

    Gepard replied to Emp_Palpatine's topic in The Pub

    The best i have seen today was the shake hands of russian and georgian sportswomen on a medal ceremonyat the Olympic Games. It shows, the problems are made by politicians, not by the normal people.

    I agree with you MigBuster. Diplomatic efforts were made in the last weeks. I know the german foreign minister was in Abchasia for negotiations 2 or 3 weeks ago. That something was cooking in this area was obviesly, but that the explosion came so fast was unexpected. Both sides should go back to status quo ante as soon as possible.

    MIDWAY TERRAIN ===================== I. Midway terrain is made for "Strike Fighters Project 1" SFP1. You can use it in Wings over Vietnam and Wings over Europe too. Wings over Israel can handle this terrain too, but the flight modells of prop driven planes shows anomalies in WOI. ============================================== II. Midway terrain covers a part of the Central Pacific Ocean with the atolls of Kure and Midway. It is the place were in 1942 a big Air-Sea-Battle was fought between the Imperial Japanese Navy and the US Navy. The japanese Navy was superior in numbers of ships, but the US side had some major advantages. No.1, the japanese communication code was broken, so that the US Navy commanders were able to read the enemy commands. No.2, the US had radar coverage, so that enemy surprise attacks were nearly impossible. No.3, the US had the superior number of airplanes which were deciding during the battle. The battle was fought as a pure air to sea combat. No single gunfire exchange between naval vessels took place. The result was that the japanese Navy lost 4 carriers and the US Navy lost 1 carrier. It was a impressive victory for the USA in Pacifice war theater. You can compare it with the Battle of Moscow on the Eastern Front or the first british victories in North Africa. Midway Terrain following target areas this are Kure Atoll (Neutral airbase) Eastern Island (Midway AB USMC) Sand Island (Midway USMC) ship formations Japan +Midway Occupation Force +Midway Support Force +Second Fleet Main Force ( 1 small carrier) +First Fleet Main Force (1 small carrier) +First Fleet Carrier Strike Force ( 4 carriers) USN +TF-16 (2 carrier) +TF-17 (1 carrier) ********************************************* III Known problems Up today it is impossible to take off and land from carriers while using single missions which are generated by random single mission screen. Thatswhy i added invisible airfields for taking off and landing in the centre of carrier formations. You will also start from the sea. This is not satisfying. Thatswhy it is the best to start the mission in the air to overcome this problem. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ IV. INSTALLATION 1.)unzip all files into your Terrain folder 2.)unzip Groundobject.rar into your Objects folder. It is neccessary that you download following files from Capuns homepage http://cplengineeringllc.com/SFP1/ yourself and unzip it into your Objects/Groundobject folder. 1. Akagi 2. Brooklyn 3. CV-5 4. Fla-MG (you need to download the Browning AAA gunner. From there you need the files BrowningAAA.LOD and BrowningAAA.bmp) 5. Liberty ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ V. Credits At this place i want to say thank you to the guys who made the groundobjects and who gave me the permission to use them in Midway terrain. Also a big thank you to Hinch for the Zuiho carrier and the japanese Battleship which is a moded Repulse etc. Thanks to TK for the great SFP1 sim family. And finally thanks to all guys who helped me with hints, advices etc. ******************************************* VI. Midway Terrain IS FREEWARE. COMMERCIAL USE IS NOT ALLOWED. GROUNDOBJECTS are forbitten to share. If you want to do this please contact the makers of this Groundobjects If you find bugs please post them in StrikeFighters section of Combatace.com forum. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ VII. Hope you enjoy it. Michael (Gepard) ============================================ VIII. Made in Germany August 2008 ============================================ IX. PS Q: How i can get Midway Terrain running in WOV, WOI or WOE A: 1. Open file Midway.ini 2. Look for line CatFile=..\Desert\Desert.cat 3. Replace this line with: for WOV: CatFile=..\VietnamSEA\VietnamSEA.cat for WOI: CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.cat for WOE: CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat

  7. Georgia moves against separatists

    Gepard replied to Emp_Palpatine's topic in The Pub

    Also, the russian troops in South Ossetia are members of the GUS (Gemeinschaft unabhängiger Staaten, i think CIS is the english term, but i'm not sure.You can compare the GUS with the Commonwealth.) "peace keeping forces". They were sent in by the Council of the GUS, not by the russian government. They kept the peace since 1992. The main problem is, that the NATO invasion of the Kosovo in 1999 now gives the russian government all arguments to intervene in South Ossetia. If you remember, without backing of the UN the NATO started a military operation to push out the Serbs of the Kosovo. The aim was to protect the Kosovo Albaniens. As far as good, but the Kosovo was serbian heartland since more than 1000 years, long before the first Albaniens imigrated into this land. Today the Kosovo is an independent contry. Compare the situation with South Ossetia. The "owner by law" of this land, the Georgians, started a military operation against a "minority" (I set minority in "" because in South Ossetia the Ossetians are the majority). The same had done the Serbs in Kosovo ( in Kosovo the Albanians were the majority). With the same right the NATO protected the Kosovo Albaniens, the Russians now can protect the Ossetians. With the same right the NATO bombed Belgrad the russians can bomb Tiflis. The NATO action against Serbia had opened the way for russian strikes against Georgia. It are two sides of one medal. Exactly the same. If you vote against the russian action against Georgia, you must vote against the NATO action in Kosovo.Unfortunatly. I dont write it to support Russia. You will not hear a "Slava Rossia" from my lips. But you will also not hear "Viva Georgia". It is a god dam situation, caused by stupid politicians, who manipulate law and order for their own favor. And this on all sides. The bad boy here is Saakashvili, but his caucasian counterparts are not much better. Of course Russia has vital interessts in Caucasus, but Europe and America too. The worst thing would be that the actions of caucasian blockheads bring back a new East-West confrontation. We have in Germany a proverb that fits perfect for the Caucasus region. "Wer solche Freunde hat braucht keine Feinde." Word by word translated: "Who has such friends needs no enemies."

    Gepard replied to Emp_Palpatine's topic in The Pub

    The storyline of the conflict. ( surely not complete) -Back in mid 19th century Russia occupied the Caucasus area. A lot of uprisings were suppresed by russian military. -October 1917 revolution in Russia. Forced by the circumstances Lenin opend the way to independence of peoples of former Russian Empire. -In 1918 some caucasus peoples (re)founded their own states. Georgia was one of it. - 1918 to 1922 civil war in Russia -Up to 1921 or 22 all of this "white" republics were blown away by military red forces. -In 1922 the now "red" republics became part of the USSR. - 1925 Stalin, a Georgian, became head of the USSR - The exact date i havent found, but Stalin cutted off South Ossetia from Russian Federation and included it into Georgian Socialist Republic. -1942 german forces reached the caucasus region and tried to start an anti russian revolution. They had only minor success, but Stalin banned hundret thousends of people to sibiria. -1991 the Soviet Union is history. The GUS is founded. Yelzin offered to the peoples of the formes USSR so much independence as they want. As result Georgia is reborn. But Georgia is not only the home of Georgians. There are a lot of other peoples (Abchasians, Ossetians, etc) which also attemped to reach their independence, but the Georgians denied their attempts. -1992 in South Ossetia elections were held and over 90% of the Ossetians voted for independence from Georgia. Georgia sent police forces and the first war broke out. In the same year the GUS achieved a casefire and put in "peace keeping" forces. From this point South Ossetia was independend from Georgia. - 2004 elections in Georgia. After elections Saakashvilli became leader of Georgia (Revolution of Roses). - 2007 Saakashvili sent his police forces against political demonstrations in Tiflis. Reelection was forged, by statements of opposition, by statements of EU and UN officials. US politicians claimed free and fair elections. -2008 tensions in the region raised. georgian attempts to regain lost territories. Political missions of european politicians failed. - night from 07.August 2008 to 08. August 2008, georgian forces opend the fire on south ossetian and "peace keeping forces"positions. Georgian forces started to invade South ossetia, tried to blitz against their capital Swinggali. -By high noon 08. August 2008 the town Swinggali is nearly encirceld by georgian forces. Georgian artillery shell the town mercyless. Georgian airstikes destroy the hospital of the town. Over 1000 civilists die (be carefull with numbers, in this region of the world the guys have very big balls) -Ossetian president cried for urgend help, the russians start to air support South Ossetia and by end of the day the georgian invading forces were pushed away. -By the end of the day russian T-90, mobile artillery and other forces reached South Ossetia. -Today Saakashvili tells the world, that he is innocent victim of russian invasion. To be continued

    Not lies, damn lies, and statistics... but lies < dam lies < statistics. Or how Winni Churchill said, " I trust only the statistics that i have forged myself.

    Great show in Beijing. In London i will wait for the "Free Scotland" banners. Will be funny to see how the englishmen will react.

  11. Georgia moves against separatists

    Gepard replied to Emp_Palpatine's topic in The Pub

    Do you have ever been in Kaukasus region? Shurely not. If you had been there, as i had been, then you would know that you all tell BS. Saakashvili is the aggressor, not the russians . He ordered his forces to attack last night. His forces attacked South Ossetia, killed innocent people. The Ossetians as all rights of the world to defend themself and they have all rights of the world to demand help. Russia has the same right to defend the Ossetians as the NATO has had the right to defend the Albanians in Kosovo. Saakashvilis Georgia is the aggressor in Ossetia in the same way as Milosevics Serbia was the aggressor in Kosovo. To start a war at the same day when the Olympic Games starts is a babarian act. Catch Saakashvilli and send him as prisioner to the International Court of Den Haag! And by the way if someone believe i love the russians, no way, as East German i cant be russofil. Edited to remove the name calling. Gepard, please refrain from doing so in the future. You can make your point without it. Tailspin
  12. Release? I think next weekend. Carriers. Unfortunatly no starts and landings at single mission screen. The same as revious.
  13. Well spoken. Very well.
  14. The development comes to an end. Still some days and i can release it. Contains the island of Kure and Midway, The US Carrier Battle Groups TF-16 and TF-17. The japanese First Fleet carrier strike Force, the Midway occupation force, Midway Support Fleet, Second Fleet Main Group, First Fleet Main Group
  15. The last Kiev carrier, the Baku, renamed in Admiral Gorshkov, is now in refitt stadium and will be in futre the next Carrier or the Navy of India. The MiG-29K is the plane for it.

  16. anyone considered mideast terrain?

    Gepard replied to whiteknight06604's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2

    No such conversation available. But there is a simple way in this community. If nobody has done it, then do it yourself.
  17. I have a problem while making my Midway terrain, which has to do with the ground objects (ships). My idea is that destroyed ships not sinking, but burst into flames, as it was in reality. In the last some days i tried it with Capuns Akagi aircraft carrier. The result was that if i destroy this carrier i get a burning ship, but this ship has no texture, is also white. This is not satisfying. Now my question to the specialists. Has someone an idea how to solve this problem? this is the entry in the Akagi_data.ini [GroundObjectData] DamagedModel= DestroyedModel=Akagi.ini DestroyedEffect=LargeOilFire SecondaryEffect=VeryLargeBombEffect SecondaryChance=100 SinkTime=5.0 EmptyMass=37545454.45 Component[001]=Hull Component[002]=Superstructure Component[003]=GunTower1 Component[004]=GunTower2 Component[005]=GunTower3 Component[006]=GunTower4 Component[007]=GunTower5 Component[008]=GunTower6 and this is the entry in the Midway_types.ini [TargetType079] Name=Akagi FullName=Aircraft Carrier TargetType=MEDIUM_RUNWAY ActiveYear=0 TargetValue=550 UseGroundObject=TRUE GroundObjectType=AKAGI RepairRate=0 StartDetectChance=0 StartIdentifiedChance=0 IncreaseDetectChanceKey=0 MaxVisibleDist=18000.0 DestroyedEffect=LargeOilFire SecondaryEffect=VeryLargeBombEffect SecondaryChance=100
  18. I solved the problem. In the last hours i sunk more carriers then any other of the world and finaly i got it. Now i have nice burning ships and carriers with full texture. Thanks for the hints. Kevin, the medium_runway setting is still an beta. It is not possible to start and land from carrier in single mission. Unfortunatly. But there should be a way to do it. In campaigns it is possible. But where is the trick?
  19. The carriers are part of stock WOE or WOV. With SFP1 and WOI you will need to download carriers and put them into the groundobjects folder. The latest version of Formosa terrain is v1.0. I guess the 2.o is a mistake, that someone missread v0.2Beta as v2.0
  20. Look for "Formosa Terrain"
  21. The side selection comes with the line Alignment=FRIENDLY or Alignment=Enemy Friendly stands for Blue side Enemy for Red side. Location is only used in Campaings for the briefing screen where you can read the name of the base and the location of the base. For instance Ramat David, Israel. If you has make no mistakes the changing of the alignment should do the job without problems.
  22. Bad guys? Do you mean the Amis?
  23. For Korea i made some times ago the soviet used fluid six formation. [FormationType0xx] Name=SovietFighter BaseLevel=2 Level[01].Name=Eskadrilla Level[01].Size=2 Level[01].Formation[01]=SqTrail Level[02].Name=Zevno Level[02].Size=3 Level[02].Formation[01]=Fluid-Six Level[02].Formation[02]=Hi-Lo-3Pairs Level[03].Name=Para Level[03].Size=2 [Fluid-Six] Position[01].Offset= 0, 0, 0 Position[02].Offset= -50, -15, 5 Position[03].Offset= 200, -50, 50 Position[04].Offset= 250, -65, 45 Position[05].Offset= -200, -50, -50 Position[06].Offset= -250, -65, -45
  24. Alt+N should bring you close to the carrier.
