Oh man, I feel so stupid! I'm so used of the spanned archive that extract itself automatically after the first, that it's only after reading your post mentioning the "SF2WFI_Mod InstallerV2.1.D01" file that I realized that the part2 had to be extracted manually too. Now it's properly installed and the nations that were causing a CTD now works like a charm. Thank you very much for your patience Spectre[8750]!

Well Spectre[8750], here it doesn't. I'm sure that you tested it hard and deeply before posting it but the fact is that I have an error message. I understand your point of view and I know that you are making efforts to not call me a moron, and I thank you for not doing it, but be sure that I only want to enjoy your hard work, as it deserve to be. Do you want to help me to do so? The "SF2WFI_Mod InstallerV2.1.exe" file is 500,000 Kb big here, is it the same for you? Best regards

Hello Spectre[8750], I'm eagger to enjoy your new version but I'm having an issue with the Mod installer. At about 37% of the installation process, it stops and display the following error message. I tried it three times, while having downloaded again the files the last one and I'm unfortunately still facing it the corrupted file error. Could you please verify your installer and provide the checksum of both files? Best regards

Sorry to not have made myself clearer Spectre8750, but the file Strike Fighters 2: War For Israel V2.1 Part 1 is not on CombatAce anymore. By clicking on the link above, one get the following error message: Edit: Nevermind, it's back.

Tally ho! Edit:: seems like the first part is nowhere to be found. Would you have a new link? And what about the Menu part you are talking about?

Oh my goodness!lindr2, you are the man! Saviour of the forgotten Russian weaponry! Soon, things will be blown up... with style!

Great work (again) ChampionsVA56! Do you plan to pack all the parts in an All In One package once, if ever, you'll be finished? Best regards

Ok, so it has some limitations but can be great if employed correctly. Nothing wrong with that. ;) As a side note, here is an interesting, and certainly entertaining, read: http://www.16va.be/3.6_les_operations_aeriennes_eng.html

Vey nice work FastCargo, that is visually pleasing and may even improve the AI's ability to perform punchy interception missions. Is the modified ini affecting all aircrafts or is it specific to a given formation?

That thread should be re-localized to the KB, it's a pure gem. Lexx_Luthor, you are terrific!

With Google Chrome, with up to dates players, on XP, I was painfully experiencing the same issue. I disabled all plugins I had, without any changes. The relief came when I installed an Ads blocking plugin. I don't want to promote such tools, as I'm not sure that it doesn't negatively impact the site, but that issue was a real pain down there and hard on my nerves as I constantly had to hit Escape key before the page was fully loaded, and so that damned black band. Anyway, I'm glad to fully enjoy CA again.

Thank you Wrench, I feel like Dora the Explorer while flying over such great places. Great initiative "someone" for asking for it ;)

Thanks for your answer about the ini files, and great news about the update, so I'm gonna wait for it to reinstall over SF2I. Would you mind to write somekind of a changelog explaining what was wrong and how you fixed it please? So the greenhorns like me will be able to learn from experimented gents like you? ;) Best regards

Spectre8750, you mean that ini files, ie. "FORMATION.INI", "MISSIONCONTROL.INI", "SQUADRONLIST.INI", "NATIONS.INI", placed in the Campaign's folder have no effect, right?

As far as I know, as I'm no specialist, this is a radar beam-riding stricto sensu, as the (early?) SA-2 were working . About your other questions Squid, I would be glad to vulgarize missile guidance for you if only I would have a clear view and a deep knowledge but I have not so I prefer to not make things sounds more complicated than they by What I would advise you is to that a look at an article about that topic on Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guided_missile Yeah, I known, the pedia is often not that authoritative but it offers somewhat understandable answers to your questions. ;) Best regards

Thanks for your answer Kevin. I placed a carrier manually as a target and it showed up. I must have missed something and I should take the time to read the sticked thread by the way. Anyway, here is a bmp that should make a decent Libya_Water file. (Don't download the picture shown as ImageShack converted it to png. Instead, please download the file hosted on Mediafire) http://www.mediafire.com/file/csgk9xhx13a5x5g/LIBYA_WATER.7z

Hello Soulfreak, Lybia should be spelt Libya in your list. Cheers

hello Kevin, thanks for answering. What is that bmp for is not what I'm curious about though, my question was specificaly about Libya_Water.bmp as the mission editor actually seems to work fine already without it, on Libya 3.75. So I'm wondering which subtlety did I not got?

Hi Spectre8750, I'll try again on a pure SF2I installation. By the way, what about the .ini files in the Campaigns' folders?

Thank you very much Prowler1111, that helps a lot. Soulfreak, thank you for that link, I didn't knew that forum. Best regards to you both.

You gents piqued my curiosity, what specifically for the mission editor need the Libya_Water.bmp?

Some details to add, from the horse's mouth: http://bbs.thirdwire.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=29532#p29532

And having feedbacks from fans to help modders that devoted their spare time to perfect their showpiece is also all inclusive in a community like ours, shouldn't it be? I love the pack you, the TMF, past and actual, released and examining the details is a show of caring, not a will of pointless trolling as we all want things to be perfect.

Great work MontyCz, the model is visually pleasant, the cockpit is functional and, last but not least as it's often overlooked in the mods, the documentation is exemplary! There's a very small typo in the "L-39ZO_USERLIST.INI" file though, as Libya is spelt "Lybia" in it.

Hello simmers, could anyone point me to blank templates for the SF2's F-16A and the Kfir stock aircrafts? Ideally, both would be grey or bare metal. Thanks for your attention
