Need Help after Patching a clean install - NOW CTD!
TheStig posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
FIXED, but now another problem... -
Deleting Weapons in Weapons Editor
TheStig posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I'm thinking of doing pulling a "START" on my weapons in WOE. I have too many rocket pods listed for each type (i.e 8 LAU-10s) and want to only have one or two showing of my choice. If I start deleting some of the entries via the weapons editor, will the number sequences change with each weapon deleted? Will it screw any of the numerical sequences up? -
Deleting Weapons in Weapons Editor

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! CTD now after deleting multiple rocket pods! MissileObject.DLL looks like the cause. See below... Help... cannot reinstall as my CD/DVD drive is fragged. -
Running WOE without CD/DVD
TheStig posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
My CD/DVD drive crapped out on me last night and won't read any CD's or DVD's at all. I launched WOE to my surprised that it works without the CD/DVD on startup. However, does the game look for the CD when you play single missions, instant action or campaigns? In short, can it be run without the CD? -
Running WOE without CD/DVD

By patched if you mean I am running the Oct 2008 patch, then I sure am and many thanks for the reply! No more WOx withdrawls then! -
Although in actual history, the lower nose Sidewinder racks were never used to do greatly reducing the efficiency of launching AIM-9s from that location, I want to add them to my F-104C in the game. The model is Dave's that I downloaded off of this site in the A/C package. Is ajundair did an F-104G with these weapon stations. I was wondering if the pylons and copying/pasting those weapon stations from his Data file into the F-104C would allow me to utilize them and show correctly on the flight model with pylons. If there is a better way, please let me know... Thanks!

Adding Sidewinder Nose Racks to Dave's F-104C from his A/C Package
TheStig replied to TheStig's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Under the curse of insomnia on a week night last night, I found out how to add them. I just copied them from the F-104G. Even though they technically were not used, they are definitely being used now in this alternate era video game. I even gave the F-104C Sparrow capability. If the Italians could have them on their 'S' variant, why not the Americans in a Cold War gone hot? -
Did a New Main Screen

Just messing around with the main screen from TW. A Cold War from 1948 to 2025 in my WOE does not just happen in Europe.. -

SF-1. Kinda gives the game a nice updated look from the start. -
Can I use the SF2 B-52G/H gray skin on my SF1 B-52G/H
TheStig replied to TheStig's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Got it! It wasn't in ANSI (the Textureset.ini). Thanks for your help again Dave. The skins look beautiful on something so damned ugly. I love it! -
I think I have been bit by the bug that wants another thirdwire game. I couldn't bring myself to buy WOV before since I thought I pretty much have the best of both worlds just getting WOE and downloading all the Vietnam Era aircraft. Not the case I guess. I'd like to have the Vietnam campaign and the ability to launch from carriers. Are there any tips for merged installs between WOV and WOE? I have WOE already patched to 10/2008. I plan on doing a separate WOV install and then WOE right over it. Do I install to the same folders for this to work? Also, I have aircraft that are already found in WOV like the F-4B and F-4J. Do I just transfer my skins from the old ones I have to the WOV versions? Any comments on this will be great. I look forward to this mini project. Thanks!

TheStig replied to TheStig's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I'm not at home right now, but I am going to check and see if the INIs are in ANSI code as soon as I get the chance. Something is telling me they aren't and that could be why. Thanks for your help so far Dave! -

They are not. The BMP names are the same as the SF1 camo skins that came with the B-52G/H package -

TheStig replied to TheStig's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
How do I tell if they went to Unicode. I pretty did the same thing I did with every skin I have installed on WOE aircraft. Maybe I am missing this coding step in the ini. And which INI are you talking about? The textureset.ini that's in your skin folder? -

Hey Dave I am sorry to say the SF2 skins don't work on the SF1 WO* B-52s. At least they aren't for me. The skin doesn't even show in the hanger arming screen. Bummer... Any ideas? I've directed everything I can to my B-52H folder and that didn't help either. Why would it not even be recognizing it? -
AC-130 bags an interesting target...

I was looking at the defense suppression image and wondering... What's to stop the F-15 from making it a "Missile Truck" -

That is a lot of B-52s... :fans: -
F-16 cockpit

Isn't that the cockpit that has boresight avionics still and no TWS? -

I'll take that as a no :cray: -
I think we are reaping what we sow. A full compliment of F-35s to satisfy our armed forces will not happen until 2020. We will need the F-22 in a lot more ways than they think right now. Keep your fingers crossed; hopefully there will be Raptors in the 2011 Defense Bill.

Erwin are you still doing that SU-37, or was that someone else? -
White square in Southern California Terrain Ver.2?

It comes with our state's deficit as we can't afford landscaping even. -
Wingman
TheStig replied to Ice Man's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
meh... At least your wingmen don't crash into your shiny F-22 like mine do. All I hear is a thump and see the Fire light come in the cockpit...
