Hi Friends from Brasil
madvad replied to Benetnasch's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Hello! E aí, beleza? Bem vindo! -
Its a old game running in a 32-bit software engine. So, don´t matter how much RAM your machine have, the SF2 never gonna use more than 3Gb or something around this. Its the same with Windows 32 and 64 bit versions: you need the 64-bit version to take full advantage of all the installed RAM.

What do you mean? I've always used LGBs to attack any ground target, be it tanks, AAA, etc. and "hard" targets like hangars, buildings, etc. But it is only possible to aim at these targets if you have the designator pod. Without the pod, the bombs will only hit the primary target, because as the game manual says, it is as if "some FAC or soldier on the ground was illuminating the target with a laser". Therefore, the pods are not just "eye-candy"...without them the bombs do not really "lock" on the targets, with the main exception for the reasons stated above.

Something that really frustrates me a bit is the lack of scale in the buildings. I know there's a reason for that, they always seem far away, but when you put the aircraft next to the building, it looks like a miniature.

Can I give my 2 cents?: The Saab´s Draken and Viggen, Tomcats... These models are superb 10 or 15 years ago, but the news models/modder raised the bar, and these planes gonna look awesome with the new "standards"...

Probably the file is corrupted

Yes, I tested it and it only works with non-Hard flight physics. And a tip for future fix updates: the rudder and ailerons have inverted movements. -
Dunno why, but is unflayable for me. Just explodes on the runway in the beginning of the flight, and if I start already in air, is uncontrollable, only flying straight with autopilot. Maybe its because I use hard settings for controls?

This drives me nuts.........

Never saw that happening -
Do not play the merged games using SF2 Europe. My sugestion is play them all using the newest of them all, the NorthAtlantic.

FlighEngine.ini questions

Yes...I can play Rent´s GermanyCE whitout a problem, Anatolia V1 and others heavy detailed maps whitout a problem, but others like Anatolia V2, IraqWA80 and ODS 30Th I used to play smoothly, but not anymore, crash almost 50/50. Something is changed, and I dunno what. Probably something changed in the NVIDIA/Windows drivers a while ago and is causing this. -
FlighEngine.ini questions

I will try to force DX9=TRUE and see whats gonna happen... It doesn't seem right to me that a crash while the game is still loading the objects has to do with the graphics capacity of the video card being powerful or not, because the action hasn't even started yet, and if it did, theoretically it would run with very low fps, or it would crash while the game was running.
