Darker night & night vision
pistitom replied to pistitom's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
well, theoretically it could work ( I"m not a modder, don't know....) in case it's not a sensor in any sense....You could have problems when carrying mavericks....I really don't know .... -
Darker night & night vision
pistitom replied to pistitom's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Just an idea....could the TV-screen type of display ( like the F-117 or the Maverick targeting sys.) be used as night vision? It should be modified as to appear on the whole screen...Is it a stupid idea? -

Worst Mission that you managed to survive
pistitom replied to JonathanRL's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
single mission, F-18/F Super Hornet, another one for wingman and 2 F-14s for backup...anti ship mission, year 2000...on the way we had some minor dificulties with the wast amount of SAM launchers near the beach, but engaged in low alt. flight and survived... when almost reaching the sea, suddenly 4 Su-27 appear at 9, dist around 150 miles...give the orders engage air to flight one, I go on for the ship...in a matter of minutes my entire squadron is gone....reach objective point, no ship around...start flying around, meanwhile engaging the enemy, who, after having finished my squadron came for me....I had 2 amraams, 4-6 sidewinders and some harm missiles...ok, the fight is on, no ship, take down 3 Su-s, still no ship....run out of AA ammunition, the remaining Su on my 6....still no ship !!! for some reason the enemy is quite determined to shoot me down , can bearly escape his missiles with flares and maneuvres....I gave up on the ship, started to call for help- btw : why on Heavens name I never get any help sent ???!!!- and headed home...full throttle, all weapons and ext. stores jettisoned, alt. ranging from 100 feet above ground to 25000 as I try to loose him.... near my home base he finally gave up...my left rudder was missing and left engine not working ( perhaps ran out of fuel?? ) but I SURVIVED ...what a mess.... -
Hi, is there any info, post on the f-14 fuel tanks? I can load them, I have the extra fuel, I can drop them, but on external view they're gone...can't see them...untill now I didn't even realize they were invisible... Any ideas? THX

Fuel Tanks
pistitom replied to pistitom's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
maybe I found the source of the problem,however don't know the solution..the tanks appear on the loadout screen under the name of VF-31 Tomcatters 267-gal Drop Tank..nowhere else have I found this name....Btw, the same problem occured with the F-16 tanks...the centerline tank is ok, but the 300-gal ctr FT Euro Camo is also invisible...good camouflage ...I think I put all files in the right places, added to weapondata.ini, saved with the editor...if no one else has this problem probably I did sg. wrong..... -

pistitom replied to ToS's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Yep, I remember, can't wait to see that ...such an abundance in F-14 stuff is always welcome I hereby thank everyone who created (or are in progress) these great airplanes and cockpits... -
some beginner questions - Tomcat cockpit
pistitom replied to ToS's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
apart from the MF Tomcats, I'd be more than happy ( and I guess I'm not the only one ) to use Your cockpit with the available F-14s..of course, if it's made for public use ...amazing job, I envy Your skills -
Fuel Tanks
pistitom replied to pistitom's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I'm in trouble...there are two names for the tanks, Tank330_F14 and Tank33031TL and ...TR, in the loadout ini it's Tank330_F14 and I tried all versions in the aircraft data ini, none of them worked...in the weapon editor the Tank33031TL and ...TR were the model names...so...exactly what should stand where? sorry, it seems I got lost among these ini files...thx for Your patience -

Darker night & night vision
pistitom replied to pistitom's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
BTW, is there any info on the release date for the new F-14? I hope it will playable in WOE as well, although I presume it will be created for SFF2...or perhaps I'm wrong? And greetings for the author in advance -

Darker night & night vision
pistitom replied to pistitom's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
OK, forget the dark skies, it is indeed dark enough, I was more curious on this NVG matter...it sure would be nice to have sg. like in the Falcon series...But I'm not a modder, I leave these things to the pros...:-) Offtopic, do You think there will be a newer F-14 release anytime soon, with a bit more sophisticated cockpit and textures? (eg. Mirage F. Mig-29)? -
Why do I never get carriers?
pistitom replied to Spectre_USA's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well, never thought of that...usually I give 3-4 waypoints, with an initial heading and speed...As for the 'wall', I don't think I ever went so far up north, mainly cruised near the coast....aircrafts never had any problem going even further up north...I set the speed to zero in the data.ini, the carrier turned to 176 deg. and didn't move...At least now I now from which angle to approach -

Why do I never get carriers?
pistitom replied to Spectre_USA's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hi guys, I'm having some problems with Le Missioneur...I have carriers, but the carrier I take off from doesn't follow the heading I give, it turns to 176 degrees,and advances on that route even if there's land...I tried static mission, no use....no matter what initial heading I choose....What am I doing wrong? THX for any info -
Hi everybody, I downloaded Mig 25 and 31 the other day, and found that neither of them can reach the mach 2 speed, although they were supposed to...Is there anything to be changed in the ini files ? The F-22 didn't have any problems like this...Is there any info on this ? THX

Weapons pack and the oct.2008 update
pistitom posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hi there, I'm new around here and I need help regarding the 03.jul.6 weapons pack and the latest update...I updated my WOE with this oct. stuff, after that I installed the above mentioned weapon pack and ALL weapons dissapeared....none of them is available, although the files are not gone...It is probably because it wasn't a clean install (for the update) ...Can there anything be done ? I hope I don't have to re-install the game and download each and every aircraft again... :cray: Thanks in advance for any help -
