Basic Terrain Question
allenjb42 replied to malibu43's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
You need to rename the .HFD and .tfd files to ANWbrown.HFD and ANWbrown.tfd also. -
Wings Over Israel [Official Thread]
allenjb42 replied to column5's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
What the... it's out? Looks like I picked the wrong night to spend some quality time with the wife watching a romcom! I'll be downloading tonight. -
So I was watching High School Musical 2 for the umpteenth time with my 8 year old daughter the other day, and was musing on the past few months here at CA; the various goings on in forum threads, what seems like an influx of new blood into the community who sometimes need a little pointing in the right direction in terms of forum etiquette (like don't pester the modders!) , and of course the dancing elves at Xmas. My fevered imagination got to work....... (To the tune of 'Fabulous') Newbies- It's out with the old And in with the new Good-bye WOE clouds of gray Hello WOI skies of blue Newbies- Harrier skins imported from England Hornet skins imported from Spain Phantom skins imported from Turkey And Turkey skins imported to the game Newbies\Moderators- We're gonna relax and renew Newbies- You... go... do. Newbies- We want more mods That is our simple request All things modable Bigger and better and best We need something inspiring To help us get along We need a little Raptoring Is that so wrong? Newbies- Fetch us our EF2000 Where is our cockpit with TEWS? We need our B-1B bomber Then we can hit supercruise! Moderators- Flying like never before Newbies- We... want... more. Moderators- They want more mods That is their simple request All things modable Faster and louder and best They need something inspiring To help them get along They need a little Flankering Is that so wrong? Moderators- Lots more MiGs Lots more Su's Lots more Terrains Even more crews Lots more Eagles Lots more skins They've gotta have lots more of everything Newbies\Moderators- Nothing to discuss Everything's got to be modable For us [Chorus] Moderators- They want more mods That is their simple request All things modable Faster and louder and best They need something inspiring To help them get along They need a little Mirageing Is that so wrong? Newbies- This new plane won't do That terrain's a bore That new skin's insulting We need more We need, We need We need, We need We need, We need We need more mods (hold "mods") We want more mods Bring us more mods (Moderators - Modable planes, modable sky) Moderators - Modable bombs, yes those modders do try! Newbies(seeing teaser screenshots of the latest WIP) - Oh, we like what we see We like it a lot Is this absolutely modable? Moderators- Modable Moderators- Modable Newbies (seeing the whining and nagging forum threads being locked) - Absolutely... not!

Egressing from a strike on a Mexican airfield and I spot this: I think I found Doctor Evil's south of the frikken' border hideaway! Pity I didn't have anything left to drop on it! -

Thanks to Deadhead for an AH-1W skin and to Stormtrooper for a long awaited skin for the AH-1G. I've added the AH-1W to the fictional list too. -

Out in a Chippy

Looks great. The Israelis operated a single example of the Chipmunk too, so this will be a great addition to WOI. -

Great stuff guys. I'll update the list. I think the IAF going to buy the F-22 for real so we may need to change this at some point! I've been having a bit of a play myself: FastCargo's F-15D Active + Hrntfixr's IAF F-15E skin = The Israeli top brass, in a peculiar mangling of Hebrew and English, called it 'Baz Active', but the aircrew affectionately re-named it 'Dumbo'! -
Community produced game?
allenjb42 replied to column5's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well if the two flyable aircraft were, say, the F-4 and MiG 21 you could have multiple versions of those as stock with the game, built to a higher standard than the other ai planes that come with the game. Also, the F-4 would need both cockpits modelled, like in JF-15 and F-14FD, togable in single player mode, and conceivably people could play as two-player teams of pilot/wso if they wanted. -
CPG Poll 1: Multiplayer
allenjb42 replied to column5's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I just voted for none. I don't play online or multiplayer ,so it's not an issue. I can see that it would be a major selling point though from the comments above. -
CPG Poll 2: Aircraft
allenjb42 replied to column5's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I'd just have the F-4 and MiG 21, with multiple versions of each and multiple scenarios/terrains (Historical - Vietnam, Mid East, Iran/Iraq, and Fictional - Korea, Central Europe etc.). There'll be lots of other planes flown by ai too right? -
Yet more terrain questions...
allenjb42 replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Glad you've brought this one over here Kevin. How do I claim my finders fee! Looking forward to seeing this one. It'll be a lot better than the one that's been sitting on my HD since I downloaded it all that time ago. -
J-10 WIP
allenjb42 replied to 101tfs's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
So how different is this physically from the Lavi? I mean, is it just a matter of putting an Israeli skin on it and a bit of .ini modding? -
Good Idea No 1
allenjb42 replied to snapper 21's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Not even for wing tanks? I've got various pics of them with single pylons fitted nder each wing, although the very brief look I've had doesn't show any actually carrying anything. Not sure if the Raven had the capability to carry Sidewinders like the regular F-111s. I've got a three view illustration with them fitted, but no photos yet. Either way, this would be a great addition, and would suit many scenarios. -

Recently re-discovered this 80s classic after about 20 years. Great to have on in the background while flying WOV/YAP.

Thanks for the posts guys, and of course for the new mods! I guess Pappy's skin can be used for the TA-4J too if one wanted two seperate aircraft ingame. Been a bit busy with r\l to update the list till now. Does anyone have an Israeli name for the F-106 yet?
