Templates for TW B-52D?
daddyairplanes replied to daddyairplanes's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
no worries, can always make new ones myself. not trying to do too much, just the Pacer Plank birds (80 that had wings rebuilt and given GBU-15 capability) from about '76 through retirement in 82-83. the current skins are actually decent for a base, but the paint jobs got fixed up and shinier after the depot work, and they all actually got SAC and wing badges back. i wont say that starting them is.... enjoyable. but once you got things dialed in, it makes it easy to make what ever your hearts desire is. that part is fun, but take alot of time and cussing to get there @Wrench didnt i see a thread a week or soo back about removing parts from pilots? would be really useful for a fakepilot object i got right now -

Win 11 -- where are my folders ?
daddyairplanes replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
those adapters are pretty cool shouldnt need saying, but transfer your stuff in bits and pieces, not one whole mass. that way when something screws up, its just that one batch instead of 20 years worth of stuff... -
Win 11 -- where are my folders ?
daddyairplanes replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
how the f..... it should all be in saved games like usual. but its been 5 years since i last set one up from scratch, and the memory aint any better than you at 20 so did you look for eye relief features? the three white frame screens in my FB post have a few things that are supposed to help the eyes out. low blue light, low flicker, and "eye ergo tech". the little one on top is a legacy monitor that i've had for 9 years off course, not using the screen primarily for pron also helps the eyes for all others, hopefully tOK will have a new rig show off end of week (knock on wood FedEx dont funk it up) -
My next terrain project
daddyairplanes replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
i recall even smaller buildings standing perfectly fine after losing a whole side in Kosovo. no heat, no water, apartment was like a doll house, but they were watching Sky News as we drove by! so unless you hit something load bearing, a skyscraper will likely stay standing after a hit (although with more holes and fire damage than before) -

This Day in History Screenshot Thread

15 May 1975: Jolly Green 44 approaches USS Holt off of Koh Tang Island while extracting Marines after the recovery of the SS Mayaguez. Jolly Green 44, a HH-53, was able to expedite the withdrawal of Marines on the beach by offloading on Holt, with only the nose wheel touching down the landing pad. All in complete darkness. To go all the way to the carrier Coral Sea would have taken 30 minutes and the Marines remaining on the beach were in danger of being overrun. Once the 34 Marines on this trip were onboard Holt, Jolly Green 44 was on the beach for another pick up in 5 minutes 38 US service members were lost during what became known as the Mayaguez Incident, also generally considered the final US battle of the Vietnam War -

much as the title says. a few ground rules: 1.should be as close as you can come to the historic event. some leeway is given as not all aircraft or paint schemes are available 2.PLEASE steer clear of airliner crashes or other massive loss of life unless there is a very good reason for it. keep it tasteful if you do ( Iowa ANG escorting United 232 to Sioux City in July 89 ok, a Flagon shooting JAL 007 NOT OK) 3.must give the historic event being presented in the screenshot finally, have fun! to kick it off, here's F-4E 69-7294, also known as the 4000th Phantom, delivered to the USAF 1 Feb 1971. later in 1989 it was converted to F-4G Wild Weasel V then finally expended as a QF-4G target in Nov 1998. also an example of rule 1 as i don't have a 4000th Phantom tga, so shown from a different angle! -
