daddyairplanes

thank you VR

thanks Stary! the hunter is an interesting choice as there are 2 Dutch Hunter skins in game already(as of June Patch). but i agree that i would likely buy a Mirage F1 if it came full round of skins.(at least 75% of users known). now if he releases a F-16A, USAF skins and decals its freakin on!

did you guys get to it from in game? no joy that route and i cant seem to get to the site.(0630 EST) ok after several attempts to get to TW site i can only concluded you guys went hog wild and broke the store! seriously tho whats avail and howmuch ea?

soulfreak is there anything in particular you are looking for? or were you just asking GP knowledge?

thank you for the input EricJ. i knew the moderators would have better knowledge than me, if no capabilities. If enough people vote yes on this then Erik might shoot a reorganization next time he upgrades the site. this don't garuntee change but hey maybe good old democracy might change things. You don't ask/vote the answer stays a definite no.

one of the moderators could enlighten us on that matter better. judging by the opening of the Prophead and WhatIf forums recently, and threads that were moved into them i would not think so but those are powers above my level so i only speak from observation, not practical knowledge.

that was brought up several months ago but it was felt that there wasn't enough mods out at that time or time by the folks in the head shed to organize. however with close to 1000 mods now we may wish to request som organization once again, particularly in the aircraft and skins

more of a Bourne trilogy guy myself, the books not the movies!

she does epitomize the arguement for "why can't you?" my wife and and oldest are excited tho in a house of 5, im the only one not too interested in Harry and Co. i watch the movies occasionally, they debate bits from the books!

geez

both the largest and BLOODIEST campaigns ever. the ancients had the numbers but not the technology and while those in WWI had the beginnings of the tech, it was not as refined in form or use as by these two juggernauts. Thank God the world will not see the likes of this again.

no problemo glad to help. just always double check folder names/ filepaths vs whats in your ini's. i'd say that will be 3/4 of any probs you have in Gen2 with skins/decals.

yeah well if you listen to it right at the point of impact schitt is said the same in farsi as in english it seems

any mods go into (ahem) {user)/SavedGames/ThirdWire/StrikeFighters2Europe/Objects/Aircraft/{yourplane}/{yourskin} the decals need to go into a similar folder but decals instead of aircraft. also no need to update the {your aircraft} ini as far as the textures unless you want a certain skin to be the primary. then you merely plug that in as textureset001. also do make sure all skins names match up in all ini's or you will be seeing a white aircraft til you find the mismatch. ESPESCIALLY the same for your decals and folders!

hey EricJ. Ot here but did you check out the sampler file i sent you a few days ago? if all looks good to you i wanna upload my first mod (finally!)by this weekend. just would like a second opinion on the mod then a lil talk thru on uploading itself.

sometimes it seems like 336 hours, or 20160 minutes......

forward deployed to an undisclosed mid atlantic island, where i saw the boys from the 27th FIS beat us there!

do you have the patch? if so the new TW cat extractor allows you to got thru an preview the catalog (catobject 1, 3,4 etc) and pull the specific file you need or pull the whole file if you wish. there are around 18 readable catalogs now with 2 inaccesable and a couple not there now (like the old object 5 used to be)

to all the dads out in CA land today! (their the reason im daddyairplanes, esp the youngest always yelling DADDY! AIRPLANES! )

eburger, could you guys use any help ini editing for the newest patch? stuff like the new stock units(upto 367 now) and swapping unit ID's i should be able to do easy and let you guys tackle the bigger things like getting the terrian adjusted. i've already sent Dave a comparison on the new stock squadronlist vs NF4+'s latest.

cool jedi. it is wicked the first gift your kids actually pick out or make on their own not just mom pickin for them.

EricJ for the terrain gurus and fans out there the may and june patches are not so great. locks up quite a bit and doesnt let you fix it from what i understand thought stary could fill in more on htat or you could read the gripe sheet known as the may 2011 thread. framerates have dramatically improved however, many new NATO units and squaadron markings have been added (tho oddly no Denmark) if if it was your wish you had to finish the mission not have your wingman cleanup for you to get credit. it also sets up for online patching when you fire up the game and a future d/l'able content store. the June patch resolved some issues where alot of the decals either disappeared or glowed in game. for me and the others that are more into the aircraft and the terrain is something nice to look at while your going to and from target the patches are pretty good esp for the framerate boost. myself and speakin for myself only i like the new patches but again i am more bout the planes than where they fly.

i actually had a similar issue with the Mk7 nuke on the F-84F, that also liked to be hidden in the 450gal tanks! could it be something to do with using non stock tanks on stock aircraft with nonstock cockpits?
