Of course a Tornado or a Hurrican will damage west or central european style houses too. Sure. But the damage is not as bad as we can see it in the USA very often. When we have such Tornados here in Germany the damage is mostly that the roofs are blown away, but with the US light houses the entire house is gone. Its simpler and cheaper to rebuild a roof, than a entire house. Here an example, two photos, a german village before Tornado came and after hit by Tornado. A american style village would have been flatted. By the way and OT. When the germans had had their colonies in Africa hundred years ago they build houses with clay. The walls of this clay houses were 1 meter or more thick. With the result, that the houses were cool and comfortable. In 1919 the british came and build light wooden houses and the inhabitants sweat, because it was hot in this houses.

Its true, but it is only the half truth. When Poland was reborn after WW1 (and i think it was good that the polish people had a own state again) it was polish policy to rebuild Poland in the borders which it had end 17 century. The problem was, that major parts of this territories were not populated with polish people but with ukrainians, czech, german, belorussians, lithuanians etc. With the result that the republic of poland was very soon in war with all of their neighbourstates. Okay, not with Romania, but with all others. In this wars Poland occupied territories with non polish people and in the time till September 1939 it was polish policy to "polonize" this people. You mentioned Danzig. This town was german since hundreds of years and was populated by germans by more than 85%. In the polish corridor it was the same. A lot of germans who were citizens of Poland served in the polish army and fought against NaziGermany. My grandfarther was one of them and his uncle too. My grandfather was lucky, that he was captured by german forces in September and became POW in a POW camp near Magdeburg. His uncle, Kapitan in a cavallery regiment, was captured by the soviets. He ended in Katyn. In one of his last letters he wrote how his commanders gave the order to attack german tanks with sabre and lance and that his regiment followed this order with extreme bravery. but unfortunatly the german tanks were not made by wood and cotton as the commanders said. Today the polish side denied that this attack was made.

Sorry guys, but always if i see extrem weather situations in the USA, i ask myself, why they dont build weather proof buildings? This tiny houses made by wood, no wonder that a storm can do maxium destruction. Dont want to offence one, hope that all will be fine if the storm is over.

Poland was at this time an ally for Hitler. It was a small robber state in alliance with a big robber state. In early 1939 it changed the sides and went to ally with England and France, so Hitler had seen the polish state as traitors and punished it. The polish people payed with 6 million lives. The interessting point of history is, what if Colonel Beck, the polish foreign minister, in early 1939 would not had decided to change the sides. What if Poland would have stayed Hitler ally and both states would have invaded Sovietrussia in 1939 or 1940. I guess, that the west powers (England and France) would have done nothing to help the Stalin regime and so the soviet union would have collapsed. At this time to soviets had not had the modern weapons which finally had beaten the Nazis, no T-34 tanks, no modern fighter and bomber planes. And without the american supply of fuel, food, cars, trucks and ammo they would have had no chance, as showed the winter war 1940 against Finnland.

Nice scenario. If Poland would not had had blocked the soviets the CSR would have had a good chance to withstand the Nazis. The czech panzer forces had good vehicles, the army had a good bunker defence line and the czech planes were not bad. But are you sure, that a airborne ranger attack would be launched at 4.30 am at the 1.october. At this time it is dark. There is no chance to bring airborne ranger saftly to the earth. In 1938 it was impossible for bombers to find their targets at night. In the list of planes you have forgotten the SB bombers of czech side.

Anyone else like this idea?
Gepard replied to warthog64's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
The EAW Euro terrain is downscaled. You can easily fly from London to Berlin with a Spitfire. Such a terrain must be rebuild from scratch. And this is a big job. -
Is there an F-16B for SFP1?
Gepard replied to aircraft's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
the F-16B Netz i made for WOI with using the WOI F-16 cockpit. To make it flyable in WOE you must download a F-16ABlock10 from Mirage Factory and use the cockpit of this bird in the F-16B. Step1: Delete the folder cockpit in F-16B folder Step 2: copy the folder cockpit from F-16A folder into F-16B folder. Step 3: copy file F-16A_BLK10_AVIONICS.ini from F-16A folder into F-16B folder. Step 4: copy file F-16A_COCKPIT from F-16A folder into F-16B folder. Step 5: open file F-16B_Netz.ini with notepad editor and replace CockpitDataFile=F-16A_Netz_cockpit.ini with CockpitDataFile=F-16A_cockpit.ini and AvionicsDataFilename=F-16B_Netz_AVIONICS.ini with AvionicsDataFilename=F-16A_Blk10_AVIONICS.ini Should work -
Problem with adding ground objects
Gepard replied to viet's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
If there is no groundobject, but only missiles visible it menas, that something with the LOD file is wrong. Check wheter there is a 5P85D.LOD in the folder and wheter it is spelled in the ame way it is written in the ini. Viet, try an other terrain with more SAM defence. Israel2 for instance has a lot of red SAM or try a vietnam terrain. -
Problem with adding ground objects
Gepard replied to viet's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Perhaps a question of the timeframe. If you have groundobjects for a later periode than the planes which you are flying you will never face them in game. -
The most interessting parts of the world are all done already. Perhaps some areas in Asia, Bangladesh for instance or Indonesia, the Kuril islands, could be find some interessts, depends from scenario. To come in the fictive world, a what if scenario: Prussia What would have been if in 1990 Gorbatchev would have had pulled out all soviet troops and people from Kaliningradski rayon and the "old communist" guard which were wipped out from the GDR (east germany) had taken over this area. Prussia would have been reborn, Kaliningrad would have been Königsberg again. A military dictatorship with the clear aim to regain all territories which had belonged to East and West Prussia. Of course Poland would not very happy to see such a new and aggressive german state at their northern border and .....

Kommt mir aus Deutschland irgendwie bekannt vor. Ich habe vor ein paar Jahren zwei Kleinganoven (14 und 15 Jahre alt) beim Einbruch in unsere Firma erwischt. Die "Pozilei" kam, hat die persönlichen Daten der Helden aufgenommen und das wars dann auch. Ein halbes Jahr später gings vor Gericht. In der Zwischenzeit hatten sie noch drei weitere Einbrüche begangen und waren einmal dabei erwischt worden. Die Kerle waren schon 11 mal vorbestraft. Der Richter hat einmal ordentlich "Du Du" gesagt und mit dem Zeigefinger gewedelt und als die Show vorbei war waren die Typen 12 mal vorbestraft. Die haben sich scheckig gelacht. So etwas schafft Vertrauen in den deutschen Rechtsstaat. Deshalb rege ich mich über die Justiz anderer Länder auch nicht auf, weil bei uns auch nur die Ganoven geschützt werden. Aber wehe Du parkst mal falsch in diesem Land ....

Das wird aber ein Riesenteil, wenn Du jeder MiG oder Susi die korrekte Tarnbemalung geben willst.

SAM reload times?
Gepard replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
The early SAM's used the salvo firing. The Volchov/Dvina (SA-2) shot salvos of 3 missiles at one target. The Neva (SA-3) shot salvos of 2 missiles. Reload time depended not only on skill of the crew, but also of the numbers of men in a crew and their physical power. For instance the vietnamese used a reload crew which was twice as big as an east german crew, to get the same reload times. -
Gut gesprochen und zwar mir aus tiefstem Herzen.

Its is the first step of China in the field of carrier operations. Its a difficult job. A very difficult job. It will need years to train the pilots, the ground crews and the ship crews. It will be timeconsuming, very expensive and it will cost lives. And then is the question, wheter the chinese can compare with the skills of the US carrier fleets. The more than a half century long experiences of the US boys the chinese cant copy.

Also gibts den Hänger nur auf so ollen Computers wie meinem. Gut. Ich mach mich mal dran und in den üblichen 2 Wochen sollte das Ding dann zum Download bereitstehen. Ich wollte eigentlich einen der Hubilandeplätze als Flugdeck definieren, nur als ich das ausprobiert habe ließ sich die Bohrinsel nicht mehr zerstören. Komisch. Aber was solls, ist ja eh nur ein Ziel auf das man ballern soll.

Da brauchst du bloß ein wenig an der decals.ini zu schrauben und schon hast Du was Du brauchst. Hauptsache es werden bei der NVA MiG nicht wieder die falschen Hoheitszeichen draufgepinselt. Die waren echt daneben.

Gepard replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Looks good. Would be a good replacement for the low poly F-20 i made last year. -
