When I try to use this, the game minimizes with window all the time. What's wrong. I'm using Nvidia 8400GS Update: Nevermind... I'll stick to Dx10 shaders.

A bit off topic: Nice Shin Kazama skin. Where to get?

Yes it is possible. Just direct the installer of your SF2E standalone to a different directory like Like progam files\thirdwire\NF4+. Patch it up to June (make sure its directed to the right directory). You can rename the exe so that it creates a separate mod folder. Remember to take note of the install directory of your installers and patch. Don't want a future patch for your Strike Fighters 2 default install to mess up your NF4+.

Are you trying to use green hell 2 on WOV (Series 1)?

Thanks. Now I have to find time to update my weapons folder.

The interveiws section has one of the test pilots. http://forum.combatace.com/topic/27196-an-interview-with-wagsled/

I did ini changing of NF4+ to Feb 2010 standards. Afterburners and huds are most important. But remember to edit all the other effects inis as well. I encountered cockpits with missing textures so you need to look around for the files as well. Check the cockpit fix thread. Terrain seems to be running fine, even with trees. I don't use widesky or any sky mods so I don't know if there are adverse effects of using them.

Ah so it's done on purpose. I guess I'll keep it. Was shocked the first time I've seen it.

Finally installed this mod. Life is really short in a modern war. The addition of "One World Order" and that funny-looking stealth jet is also quite entertaining! And the Brits are helping the Arabs? Where can I read about the backstory of this campaign? Is it just me? The MiG-21s are running silent (no engine sound) when being watched in external view?

Actually the trees are ok. You need a lot of trees especially in Vietnam. But the clouds are sometimes too low and too dense. Maybe realistic and better eye candy but it's just too much clutter on the screen for me. Eric, Thanks for the info. I'll do the reverting myself.

Wouldn't it be cool to simulate UAV's in the Strike Fighters 2 game engine? No cockpit but you just get a hud in a TV screen. Only problem is that if your UAV gets shot down, the pilot is KIA as well.

Eric are you working on an update your mod for the Thirdwire Feb2010 patch.

Does range have something to do with it? If you order them to attack at long range, say +5.0 nm, they will use missiles (Mavs and Harms). If you order them to attack at 3.0 nm, they will use bombs. If you order them to attack closer they use guns. Since after the first run they are still quite close to the target, they will prefer to use guns on the second pass. The .ini example in the previous page has range entries. Maybe we should order them regroup. Fly out a bit further and then order a ground attack again. Haven't tested this though. But I'm getting more favourable results of them firing missiles when ordered far from the target. The only downside is that they might attack a closer non-priority target.

I remember this plane. I was originaly from the Philippines and these were used by rebels to attack the presidential palance in a coup in 1989. I watched as F-5s were used agaist them in a dogfight over Manila. A classic prop plane vs. jet combat. I believe nothing was shot down from the sky. F-5s can't hit the props with the guns (no missiles were brought) because they would overshoot the target. T-28 can't shoot back because the F-5s kept their distance. But the F-5s did get to destroy the T-28s once they landed. Here's an article from wikipedia:

Ah I now know my mistake. Didn't know the Dhimar and Paran nation number.

I always recommend the Veitnam mod from eburger to new users. It's got a lot of content and it is being actively supported by the modder. He checks for compatibility everytime there's a new patch and fixes the kinks when we find them.

Wow! Never had those nightmares from payware.

Feb2010 patch might just fix this according to the readme. I haven't had the time to try at the moment.

Well I usually delete the trees and cloud mods from your mod anyway even if they're fixed due to system constraints and personal preference. Thanks for the great mod. I always recommend this to new SF2 Series players.

I guess the statement is too generalized. So there are "poor" quality payware? I guess it's just an expectation on my end. Payware should be better than TMF quality or else I'm not buying (only if there's overlap). But different case if payware provides something that's not available anywhere.

Well generally, payware has better quality than freeware. You can find wonderful free mods here in Combatace but I'm pretty sure the payware surpasses these in quality. If not, then I'm not buying.

Saw this coming via Thirdwire's twitter. Just when I have edited the ini's for NF4+ and my installed mods. Hope there's nothing broken after this. :D But it's good that they fixed the water transition bug.

There is some bug in the combo pack. I also have a merged install of all the separate titles there is no problem. The bug is only for low detail level. If you increase to medium, it runs fine. http://bbs.thirdwire...t=7201&start=24

They're already accepting pre-orders http://x65f.gameshark.com/mailshot.htm What does it mean when they say:

Now you've metioned it, red vs. blue is very common in human history. But red does not mean you are on the 'bad' side. If you talk about the Russians, Chinese, and Communists in general... they will still think of themselves as Reds because their flags are red. Red is a very important color for the revolution. Red is a happy and auspicious color for Asians. In stock markets in Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, Japan. When the stock price is up... it is collored red. Just to add the 'Axis' is not an evil term. It is actually what fascists call their alliances during World War II. Oh didn't you notice that the Nazi and Japanese flags are predominantly red? Italy has some red and no trace of blue. :D USA, UK, France has traces of blue. So it's another case of Blue vs. Red... except for the the Russians that are Red and part of the Allies.
