WHEN HE RELEASES HIS FINAL PRODUCT IN THE FUTURE THIS MOD WILL BE UPDATED ACCORDINGLY. NOTE ON SPECIAL TANKS AND MIXED FLIGHTS I HAVE SET UP A SERIES OF FUEL TANKS SO THAT FUEL TANKS OTHER THAN WHAT IS NATIVE TO THE AIRCRAFT CAN BE SELECTED, ALLOWING MIX FLIGHTS OF AIRCRAFT. THE TANKS FOR EACH AIRCRAFT IS IDENTIFIED BY A NUMBER AT FRONT (IE "370 GAL TANK") WHILE THE NON REGULAR ONES HAVE THE AIRCRAFT NAME IN FRONT (IE F-16 370 GAL TANK). THEY WILL APPEAR FOR THE MOST PART AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MENU SCROLL IF YOU CHOOSE TO DO THIS, IT IS HIGHLY RECCOMENDED THAT YOU SELECT THE F-16C, THEN CHANGE TO THE F-4G OR A-10 IN THE LOADOUT MENU SCREEN ( flightname 1-1 IF YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE LEAD).

having given them small time help with it, i agree. they are working hard to bring the old upto the new standard, add to what was, and give credit where due (and remove when they need to) -

My next terrain project
daddyairplanes replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
hope so. Aurora and Naperville kinda like to go back and forth for whose bigger and/or has more my dad was from the area, and i spent my teenage years in Boulder Hill, a very small town outside of Aurora Aurora Municipal Airport is actually in Sugar Grove, but is owned by the City of Aurora and is just outside city limits, literally the way most airbases are outside of cities in game. as i recall it didnt hold much bigger than business jets, but that direct knowledge is over 25 years old -
My next terrain project
daddyairplanes replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
would you consider Aurora Illinois? west and slightly north of Naperville, and with a regional airport (or small airbase in game) just outside the city limits. about 10 miles (~16km) away -
Hardware troubles in SF2
daddyairplanes replied to usafphantomII's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
oh, im quite aware of it. especially since i spent Millenium New Years Eve and Day (31Dec99-1Jan00) at Camp Able Sentry, waiting to head north to Bondsteel after working the team on ODS30AE, my attention turned more to the aircraft that participated in Deny Flight, Deliberate Force and even Allied Force. so i was hoping you were talking about a campaign hidden in the archives somewhere. there is Menrva's Italy Southern Europe 1993-2006 terrain thats not only very beautiful but just waiting for the campaigns -

Smoooke on the water fire in the sky -
So the challange here is to NOT shoot the other aircraft down. Like an airliner in distress, or a nosy Bear peeking at the battle group. to kick off, Eastern seems to be really lost and Nordo. hopefully they get the hint to follow back to SEATAC...

Simple Model Request thread
daddyairplanes posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
To explain: this is not for full aircraft, ships, or ground objects. this is for fairly simple items to be added as fake pilot items, or possibly as weapons if not complex. real world pics are required of what you are wanting I will kick off with a request for a chaff flare box on the F-16As it appears not to be in use by the new owners, but probably cheaper/easier to leave them in place -

well few things for starters do the stock controls work?("+" for throtle up, arrow keys for up down left and right)? what other controller are you using? finally are you literally using the same controller you last used 11 years ago? like pulled out a drawer, not bought a new copy of the old gear? -

SF2 sale?
daddyairplanes replied to Spare15's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
im not TW, i dont run the store. my point is that i spent $40 increments getting the parts i wanted most, then the next most and so on until i had it all. but that was buying each part instead of the whole box set the $100 edition is the box set, everything at once. actually saves money over buying each piece over time (it also wasnt available when i was doing that) you do you want to within the limits your budget constrains you to
