Video Game Pulled Globally From Military Stores Over Taliban Inclusion
Nixou replied to FastCargo's topic in CombatACE News
Preventing someone to sell or buy a product based on your own interpretation of morale, without leaving the choice, IS a fascist behaviour as far as i am concerned. -
Video Game Pulled Globally From Military Stores Over Taliban Inclusion
Nixou replied to FastCargo's topic in CombatACE News
Agreed with everything said by above posters. Moreover, "Taliban fans" who take the game for reality will still be able to find the game anyways... -

Graphical Enhancement Mod boosts frame rates by a double!
Nixou replied to Ticket1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hi ticket. I am very glad that you enjoy my mod. Enbseries has been created by Voronstov Boris, all the credits goes to him. I just tweaked the ini file to make it the most beautiful that i could with Strike fighters, like other people prividing Enbseries mod here. I'm quite astonished you prefered mine as others are more recent and probably better, anyways.. You might know that pixel shading and other bloom and things are present in SF2 without needing any mod. -
La verdad es que eso no me parecia muy logica, pues es la verdad! SFP1 debia estar mal optimizado para los processadores "multicorazones" ya que en my computador el dos va mas rapido aunque le ponga mas calidad a la imagen!

Britain and France considering timeshare carriers...
Nixou replied to SayethWhaaaa's topic in Military and General Aviation
mmmh i'am not astonished: France isn't planning a new aircraft carrier creation before 2015-2020 so we need other carriers to fill the gap. Uk is facing huge military cuts. Sharing with France would make it cheaper. Everyone's happy. A step towards the possibility to create a true European army in the next 20-30 years, just like the police sharing forces in europe (beginning shyly). -
HAHA Suicidal tu parles très bien Français!

French warships for Russia to be armed with Ka-52 helicopters
Nixou replied to Erik's topic in CombatACE News
Well, to nuanciate that, i would say France is more european turned more than alone. The Rafale thing is due to the fact France wanted to replace all types of Aircraft (Fighter bombers) with a single multirole navalised fighter, while Spain, UK Italy and Germany wanted a Aereal superiority only Eurofighter, So France withdrawn from Eurofighter program. Now the irony of the situation is some time ago Eurofighter countries decided to make Eurofighter a multirole like Rafale and increase by much development cost of the Jet and it's armament to convert it to multirole. So now you have two similar european fighters for the same thing and the same price. So much waste of money... Well, globalfirepower site based on CIA world factbook places France as second (in 2008. Maybe changed since?): http://www.globalfir...ding-budget.asp under USA and ahead of China. It depends on sources i guess . -
Well at least now US people can't accuse anymore Obama to be "muslim sided"

French warships for Russia to be armed with Ka-52 helicopters
Nixou replied to Erik's topic in CombatACE News
While France is the second worldwide military spender, it's far from being the second military weapons seller, so we just cannot afford being too selective. Furthermore, (this is just my opinion) while Russia isn't getting more democratic with the time since Putine era, it is not a real threat for Europe nowadays wise as it was after WW2. The fact that Russia needs to buy warships from another country instead of making it themselves is imo the proof of that. -

Here is all what you will need for European Air War modding: Skinning tools, 3D models tools and texture/files decompressors/converters, as much as batch files to make conversions faster. PCX files can be oppened by any drawing program like Paintshop pro or Photoshop. Otherwise you can download the excellent free open source program "THE GIMP" for your textures and pcx. Special thanks to Colonel Gibbon that provided me all this useful stuff. Also thanks to EAW community and the source code committee that keeps this wonderful game alive and never stops improving it. EDIT: From Col. Gibbon: You can skin in 24bit BMP format too. The restiction on this is, 8bit runs in Glide & D3D mode, and 24bit colour runs only in D3D. We have not been able to get 24bit working on Glide, as it was never designed to work in higher than 16bit. Note: If you run vista you will have to put the CDF extractor in "C:\windows" in order to open it, otherwise it won't work. -

---REALISTIC GUN SOUNDS for FIRST EAGLES.--- Recordings of real maxim guns cleaned and reworked on sound forge 9. Readme for more info. (This file contains gun sounds for Vickers, Spandau and Lewis) Fed up with weird gun sounds that does not "look" real? Fear to change em cause you don't know how it sounds in reality? Here is the solution. JUST REPLACE BASIC SOUND FILES WITH THOSE PRESENT IN THE FILE. Updated new sounds for the lewis, vickers and Spandau. New record method with large gun loops for more accurate results. Mod presentation on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8eFRHwq7cM Feel free to comment or request. -

America's Ace of Ace's Richard Bong 40 kills with a P38 Lightning
Nixou replied to Hairog's topic in IL-2 Series / Pacific Fighters / Cliffs of Dover: File Announcements
Yes i know Bong. I think he is really a legend i'm not sure it has been so much forgotten you know. However, i have the feeling that some other US aces, for example Eddie Rickenbacker, are more famous indeed. I think that what is the most impressive thing is that the kills he scored were from a P38 which as most people here know, althoug being a very good fighter-bomber, wasn't the most suited airplane in a "fighter" role, at least compared to some other US aircraft. He makes the "that's not the plane, that's the pilot" become true. -

Not Unimportant Questions
Nixou replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Eject, to know how performs each weapon you just need two things: - You need the weapon editor (to open your "weapondata.ini" file). Weapon editor is downloadable here: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=6075 - To find your weapondata.ini file. It should be in Objects/Weapons folder, if you use bunyap weapons pack. Once you do this, simply lauch the weapondata editor, then click open and find your weapondata.ini. It will show you the list of weapons you have and if you click on one, it will show you the important statistic (power, accuracy, speed) and many other things. From there you can tweak your missiles as you wish. Don't forget to save before quiting weapon editor . -
Kill Marks
Nixou replied to Baron Rojo's topic in IL-2 Series / Pacific Fighters / Cliffs of Dover: General Discussion
I think this is only possible in Strike fighter project and Wings over games. Never saw tha in IL2, maybe there is a custom mod? -
I finally found a real fix to that TMF F1-C and Super-étendard canopy opening and wing folding problem: Go to the plane data.ini, open it and tape edition/search for "animation". You 'll arrive there ( this is the super étendard) : [Canopy] SystemType=HIGHLIFT_DEVICE DeploymentMethod=AUTOMATIC_SPEED ModelNodeName=Main_Canopy Setting[1].Angle=45.00 Setting[1].DeployValue=5.0 ---------------------> Those values just need to be inverted!! I guess the patch made them opposite. Setting[1].RetractValue=3.0 ---------------------> The retract value must be higher than deploy value. MaxDeflection=45.0 MinDeflection=0.0 ControlRate=0.3 AnimationID=9 So after correction it should look like this: Setting[1].DeployValue=3.0 Setting[1].RetractValue=5.0 [WingFold] SystemType=HIGHLIFT_DEVICE DeploymentMethod=AUTOMATIC_SPEED Setting[1].Angle=60.0 Setting[1].DeployValue=3.0 ----------------------> And same here Setting[1].RetractValue=1.0 MaxDeflection=60.0 MinDeflection=0.0 ControlRate=0.1 AnimationID=10 So after correction it should look like this: Setting[1].DeployValue=1.0 Setting[1].RetractValue=3.0 Retract value must be the higher. And that's all! Those aircraft will now begin with open canopy and canopy will automatically close when aircraft takes speed. Same for wing folding, wings will only be folded when you are stopped. As soon as you take speed they unfold.

Skin question
Nixou replied to Stingray72's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Hello. It won't work if the two airplanes have not the exact same 3D model, which is nearly never the case. Each skin is only usable with its aircraft. You can still try by copy/paste the skin folder of the D in the B or J. Go to objects/aircraft/F-4D folder, copy the folder with skin's name, then go to F4J and paste it into it. But i doubt that will work -
