Edward's Timor?
allenjb42 replied to Spectre_USA's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Isn't Timor part of one of the WW2 Pacific terrains that Edward did? At Avsim IIRC. Also, Gramps website mentions a RAAF Timor campaign, but I don't know anything other than what he's got up there. -
View File A-6A Intruder - 'Flight of the Intruder' Special Edition A-6A Intruder, 'Flight of the Intruder' Special Edition Readme This is a modification of the A-6A Intruder by Monty CZ/Column5, released to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the publication of the novel 'Flight of the Intruder' by Stephen Coonts. Ensure you have the weapons pack installed. Instalation: 1) Extract A-6A FOTI file into Objects/Aircraft 2) Optional: Extract Menu file to your main SF/WOV/WOE folder 2) Go fly and blow things up! Contributors: External model of plane by Monty CZ Flight model by Column5, modded by gbreuder and allenjb42 Damage model by Monty CZ/Column5 Loadouts modded by allenjb42 to try to reflect the loadouts mentioned in the book for the various missions depicted. Skins for Devil 505 and VA196 by gbreuder, based on work by pappychecksix Hangar screen by Wrench, modded by allenjb42 Loading screen - 'Going In Hot' by William S Phillips, depicting 'Flight of the Intruder' author Stephen Coonts in action over Vietnam. Menu music - samples from the 'Flight of the Intruder' movie soundtrack by Basil Poledouris Thanks to all of those listed above - they did all the hard work and gave their permissions for release, I just packaged it all together - to Stephen Coonts and of course to TK for creating these great games for us to tinker with. The Devil 505 skin represents the A-6A flown by Jake Grafton and Morgan McPherson in the book and movie 'Flight of the Intruder' by Stephen Coonts, who really did fly with VA196 over Vietnam. Although Morg gets killed in the first chapter of the book (and after about five minutes of the movie), he and Jake had flown together for two years prior to that point, so you can use the skin to recreate some of their adventures before Morg's untimely death. Besides, you can use the A-6B to fly with Tiger Cole! Unfortunately there is no publicly available Morgan Mcpherson pilot model at this time, so if someone would be kind enough to make and release one I would be only too pleased to include it in an update. In view of this, the data.ini is set up to use the Jake Grafton pilot available at Wrench's site at http://wrench1smog.com as the pilot, and the default PILOT as the B/N. This plane is compatible with all of the A-6 skins currently available. You'll just need to go into the decal.ini file within the skin folder and edit it so that all references to the original A-6 model the skin was made for are changed to A-6A FOTI. Check out the skin folders within this download for an example. Have fun, and good hunting!

Very nice Jim, thanks a lot. Mannie, you come up with an Israeli name for this bird yet? -

A-6B Intruder
allenjb42 replied to allenjb42's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
Small update: Added loadout.bmp (I can't believe I missed it!) Added new loading screen courtesy of gbreuder -
Firstly, it's free to join Avsim, then you can access the file library. Next, the F-15s are in the add on aircraft here: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...amp;showcat=136 And skins are here: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...&showcat=43 @ USAFMTL - Dave is there any chance of uploading the F-16 pack that's at Avsim so people don't have to go there to look for it? I can upload my copy if you want.

Where do you like to start?
allenjb42 replied to tw7222's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Start on the runway, fly a few waypoint manually mainly to get chance to admire the planes and the terrain, then alt-n to where the action is. But following on from this, do you guys alt-n back home or fly that leg manually? Personally I try to fly it myself, unless the missus is calling me back to real life. -
IDF screenshots

'He' being Razbam? Very nice pics btw. -
There is an Israeli F-16C and F-16D included in the F-16 pack available at Avsim. Also, there's an F-16C-25 skin at Avsim too. There is no F-15B available yet, Israeli or otherwise. There are Israeli F-15C skins available here at CA. They are for the earlier version of the F-15C, also available here. There is an Israeli F-15D that is WIP at the moment.

Baddest of the Bad of Vipers
allenjb42 replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Great stuff gents. Thanks a lot. -
Thanks Jim. Just added it to the fictional skins list. IMHO it would be something the Israelis could really make use of in reality. Not for an all out fight with the Syrians or Iranians, but over Gaza or Lebanon the combination of accurate sensors and devastating concentrated firepower would be a real bonus. Does anyone know how the USAF versions are doing over Iraq and Afghanistan?
