What type of pods are in this pic?
jomni replied to Spiff's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Baz Superpack! Oh I like the sound of that. -
If the modders start dropping FE1 like a hot potato then FE2 is the way to go. You may not see it now but it will go that way. TW will also not support FE1 anymore and all new patches are for the new series. The SF2 series is the priority platform for modders because of the ease of modding (new folder structure is actually convenient in a modding standpoint) and the little enhancements in graphics and performance. It still does not have the amount of mods like SF1 but the quality is better because of all the little stuff that Thirdwire added under the hood. The SF2 Vietnam Air & Ground War expansion pack is a prime example of a "masterpiece" that surpasses SF1 era mods (in my opinion).

jomni replied to Spiff's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Must be LANTIRN pods http://www.f-16.net/...t_article2.html One is a targeting pod and the other is a navigation pod with FLIR. Here's a clearer pricture. Attachmens on the wingtips might actually be missiles like in this link. http://www.f-16.net/gallery_item42942.html -
Guided bomb TV on WOI?
jomni replied to JDSnypes's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
You can start with the Walleye Vietnam-era TV bomb. -
SF2 SA-8 Glitch
jomni replied to Piecemeal's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
No we know why it's happening and how to fix it... So what was actually the cause of the problem in the first place? -
F-16 Cockpit
jomni replied to jack33's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I am actually doing this. All my F-16A's use Thirdwire cockpits. Just open the <plane>.ini and point the cockpit to F-16A_Netz_cockpit.ini and the avionics to F-16A_Netz_avionics.ini -
A small problem with NF4+
jomni replied to greendog's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Heavy tweaking needed for the following stuff: HUD avionics Afterburners They added some new lines to take advantage of dx10. Not sure if there are other requirements. Like I know there's some problems with custom terrain (like trees). BTW, NF4+ still going to be upgraded dec09 standards? If not I'll just do some tweeking myself. -

It would surely be spectacular to see that thing hit a plane. -
SF2E: How dark should night be?
jomni replied to HockeyCoach's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
The F-117 had an interesting night vision workaround by using forward pointing TV camera. But it's still awkward looking at the small screen. -

jomni replied to HockeyCoach's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
you want pitch black? well I agree that it needs to be darker. -
F-15 Superpack HUD question
jomni replied to HockeyCoach's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I think it's normal in the game. But don't know if it is that bright in real life. This video does give some green glow at some angles. http://www.liveleak....=8df_1205185501 -

Flying Red
jomni replied to Luiz Carlos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Would be fun to fly Reds in an Indo-Pak scenari. India being the Reds. -

I am also having the same problem in Vista -
Desert Campaign - No Foreign powers
jomni replied to jomni's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
Yup I kept the bombers default. B-57 for Dhimar and Tu-16 / 22 for Paran. I'm liking what I see so far. I only have 1 F-16 squadron for Dhimar and 1 MiG-29 super elite Squadron for Paran. I haven't seen these two squadrons in action after 2 missions. Oh there's an Independent Libyan squadron from the default scenario with Mirage 5 that I kept as reinforcements for Paran. All the rest are F-5E's vs. 3 varieties of Mig-23s. F-5's are holding up but it's hard fighting a "sea" of MiG-23's with just two missiles per mission. So far I can only pay mercs (F-5E as default plane). So should I edit Nations.ini to play Dhimar and Paran? For those who love variety, this is not a campaign for you. But I guess the campaign is a fascinating testbed for east vs. west doctrines. -
Desert Campaign - No Foreign powers
jomni replied to jomni's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
Ok I made a first draft. Why is it not appearing in the campaign menu? Is Dhimar not a playable nation? I can only select the mercs. -
Desert Campaign - No Foreign powers
jomni replied to jomni's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
Good thing you raised the topic about bombers. What to do with bomber squadrons? Keep the same planes that are being used during the 70's? -
Just got SF2. What are the essential downloads?
jomni replied to HockeyCoach's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
If you have SF2V, then you have to get the Vietnam All-in-One mod (or whatever it's called). -

Ok thanks for the tips. -
Dhimar and Paran skinning tips needed.
jomni posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I want to make a simple campaign on SF2. A bit modernized and no foreign powers! :D Dhimar: Dhimar will have the F-16A (Block 15). This is my problem. Roundels don't work using the US skins. How to make them work and how to know the right coordinates in the .ini. This is my first time doing this. Better yet, is there a Dhimari F-16 skin? Paran: Paran will have an assortment of stock Mig-21s and Mig-23s. And their best fighter will be the Mig-29. Is there a Parani skin for Mig-29? Or at least make the roundels work on the stock MF skin. Any help will be much appreciated. Oh one more thing, can mercenaries join the red side as well? -
Dhimar and Paran skinning tips needed.
jomni replied to jomni's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I guess I'll have a look around the downloads section and see which Mig-29 skin has some roundels configured. The Iranian Mig-29 skin looks nice too. -
Dhimar and Paran skinning tips needed.
jomni replied to jomni's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Cool. Thanks for the file. But how do I know the coordinates to place the wingtip and tail INSIGNIA? -

jomni replied to jomni's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
So changing INSIGNIA will make it use the roundels of the country? Thanks!
