SF2E exp2 Mission editor - No carrier or Ships
daddyairplanes replied to Silverbolt's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
ok just gave something a try here. SF2V/E/I with EXP 1 and 2, flew A-7E off of the Kittyhawk and bombed Beriut Int'ls runway. prob would have landed on the carrier too if i hadnt over flown a Zues23 and blown up. go into your mission editor , center the map over water and create a ground object.(sake of arguement it will be G001.) then go to the info for your assigned flight/aircraft and set the start and landing bases for G001. you will take off and land from the carrier. -

there was a whole thread about it, they wound up making new tiles(?) for the water and it solved the issue of no ships showing up. -
Correcting Flight Mode
daddyairplanes replied to Wad Cutter's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
i wanna know how your planes are flying straight. i have three children and sometimes have to step away from the computer while its loading. if it takes me awhile to get things sorted, i may very well see my bird in a smoking pile on the ground! no granted when your paying attn to it the aircraft maynot fight you as hard as other sims, but arcades dont just crash ya w/o input -

yep i did like bein with a signal company my year there as for gettin onto CA and d/l'ing you should be able to get on once in a while whatever yer circumstance and checkout whats goin on. (unless your really in BFE, like the border) downloads on the otherhand are another matter. i had my own in room internet in Kandahar (good ole candyland) for Skype'ing with the wife and could sometimes d/l on that. however it took a long time (26 hours for all parts of NF4+!). and our CO wasnt much for morale use of the network other than email Google and planned videoconferences back home, so not so much d/l on NIPR. another option if you have your laptop and a good friend/family in the states is to get a thumbdrive sent with some d/l's to add to yer game. also assumin your on a budget (like most soldiers) get Gimp and try your hand at skinning/decalling. hey ya got nuthin but time to give it a go. ok sorry just read ya post on location. still our teams that went to start ups like that said they went up pretty quick. and if you have a JNN team in the area and you got a useful jobset (supply, cooks, mechanics) make nice with em quick. they got yer internet (however slow!) -
@server its a bit old news there, has been judged to be the 5th mosth powerful in the WORLD since records have been kept. @Siddog (when ya get the chance) helluva cool thing yer deployment there being to help people. not too many green suiters get to say that these days. stay safe and leave any glowing to the submarine guys!

no worries on time just yet. as someone said the Gen 2 section is still quite abit smaller than Gen1. those of us who've been navigating it since it kicked off should have a good idea roughly where things are and for the new guys i usually point them in the right directon if they are lookin for something. but i still want a Phantom page like you want a pony! -

9.5 gig of skins. Can i remove some?
daddyairplanes replied to Pawgy's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
a possibility which i know works in TW sims tho i am unsure about OFF is to reduce the size of the skins using a photoshop program. many of the hi resolution skins in SF2 slow my computer down until i reduce the size from say 4096x4096 to 1024 or even 512. i think the Off vets can give better guidance on how if this is an option in game. also as far as the game using all, wow that is some immersion! TW will function as long as it has a skin, tho you might have say USAF Hercules in a RAF squadron. -

my only input is that if spinners gets a what if page, there should be a Phantoms only page! -

preferably in the news so its front and center for folks. i (and presumably many others) need spelled out lessons on how to use the new format. as i doubt it will revert back how the hell do i use this method without a migrane?

ok when i posted this the site was doin something wierd with the forums on the sides and the news in super large print in the center. aint even startin on how D/L section looked. it is all looking more logical now. could one of the moderators kindly delete this topic?

that does it. due to recent events (Spinners lozenge camoflage, the new layout for forums , and Lexx Luthors fascination with the fat lady from Total Recall) we have to institute mandatory urinalysis for CA members. substances tested for include but are not limited to marijuana, cocaine, opiates, narcotics to include prescriptions including oxycotin, alcohol, nicotine, caffiene (coffe based, soda based and even chai tea based) all are required to give a sample if official sample cups are not available then a substitute such as a gatorade bottle may be used. once furnished all samples shall be sent to Dave. if he shall burn his fingers removing your sample from the box you shall be considered "hot" and subject to clowning.

i rather enjoyed the notices in the DFACs in Kandahar telling people not to jog on the runway(mind you there is a takeoff or landing about every friggin minute). and yes virginia, it was put up because people were caught. as the ad said, dont be a hood ornament for a C-5!
