SF2: North Atlantic
squid replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Knowledge Base
first impressions : - new water graphics is not automatically ported to the other titles of the merged install (will it be portable to the other titles somehow?) - higher graphics options added to almost all graphics settings dropdowns. if choosen, becomes indeed heavier on the framerates - iceland is a huge empty desert - no coastline water transition - small islands more like geometric splinter camo - pit is nice but something i cant put my finger on exactly feels like kind of a notch less that the quality feel of other recent TK pits - smth wrong with map being black in my installation - I can't roll the Tomcat when at 09+ mach. Once at around 400kts suddenly rolls normaly - A-7Es labeled as F-14A - Are F-14 ejection seats correct ? - New theme song - Pardon, Cruiseish pilot voice ? ... - i really would like to alter the color of the sea - I am now sure DanW made the home screen at least (if not the whole GUI or all titles) - Blast shields not raised on launching on saved mission ? - Missiles not droped on Control-J ? (nessage stores dropped appears though) (TK, you need to change those clouds already) -
noisenormal & waternormal questions
squid posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I tried to use steelflanker's noisenormals ( http://combatace.com...__1#entry531238 ) but it seems something (i am doing) is wrong and i can't figure out what . The normal applied looks like a lot lower resolution that it should. At that zoom level as this SteelFlanker's demo T-62 i only get those low res blurry black pixels i show in the M163 screen . And with some of those normal.bmps i get just very low resolution big black rectangles as seen in the F-16 screen. -

Bummer i say . But i'd be (as everybody) uber-busy for too long with NA and all the moding involved :D :P At least we have the J :) - The manual hasn't been updated yet - is it only me who sees the sea color too saturated ? -

- Is your install a merge one ? - Is your SF2 installation based on prior to May 2011 installer or later ? -

WoE was the last release in an enjoyable package, both box and game GUI .... was really excited back then, combined with all the cool new planes it brought. I never stop wishing he would release with that wrapping / garnish level again. (Cant help it, after all i am a graphic designer, we are often known OCD cases) -
Found out a month later or more about it being finally released but i read it had serious issues. What's the situation now? i see two patches have been released ? fixed the majority of issues?

The United Game Industries Federation will shut him down and all copies of SF will be declared illegal, 17 market policy and laws violations and copyright theft, and we will all be interrogated by Lockheed Martin, Boeing, ms, EA, and ubisoft agents, if he accepts community contribution. Seriously, apart from the hobby level sometimes the business side of things is more bizare than we usually know. You just never know. I personally somehow understand why a developer like that perefers to keep total control of the thing, as much as it makes sense to work together with the community talents in any kind of reward or not scheme. Can't really blame the choice despite my preference for him utilizing the community potential. -
I forgot Hurricane and P-40 i happily fly in WOP too with which i essentially replaced IL2. Since WOP despite its few shortcomings i haven't been able to enjoy IL2 again, and Gladiator became of my favorite props because of IL2. Have been looking forward for the Korea pack for SF2, but from the looks of it, the World Of Planes Korea theater is going to be a whole different kind of yeah thing :) Notice the slight swinging animation of the torpedo right after droped off the Avenger bay :)

Its exciting to see in such detail and environment, planes that are of my favorites and i never had the chance to fly before in a sim that i feel attracted to , like Hurricane P-40 Dauntless Avenger Gladiator F-86

it would be indeed major sin to not have at least some decent historic SP missions

something tells me that it will have somehow some kind of single player part

squid replied to squid's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Is there maybe a chance that the installation of NA would allow a merged SF2 installation based on "the original installers from when you bought them" to be expansion packs "orderless" ? -
Darn, i am checking the new screenshots after a long time and i am getting inapropriate to mention reflex reactions
