BAF A-4F_74 for SF2 Merged
FrankD replied to James Fox's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Always nice to have more Belgian flying -
For your own information, this is what I'm talking about Stingray77: http://www.fileinfo....only-files.html Having your F-4B_67.ini file set to read only would prevent the game engine to automatically update it with the new skins. Now if you already had this file updated, either automatically or manually, but kept the old file, that may be the source of your problem. To be sure, simply compare both files and see what have changed. Good luck

where is the loading screen?
FrankD replied to agwolf's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Hello Agwolf, in complement of what Wrench wrote, if you don't have/want a loading screen for a specific aircraft and thus want to change the default loading screen, simply drop your custom one, named exactly "LOADINGSCREEN1.jpg", in your Flight folder (found in your Mod Folder of course). -
QM-29B Fulcrum Drone
FrankD replied to FrankD's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
That's what I understood too EricJ. It was in 1997 and, as far as I can guess, were 9.12A and 9.13 type (non Russian flown but nuclear capable). Defense.gov News Article: U.S. Buys Moldovan MiG-29 Fighters There are interesting details about the Modavian Mig-29, especially in the Post Scriptum of that page: http://www.acig.org/...ticle_281.shtml The Drone I propose here is a type 9.12B and the livery is purely fictional. I'm glad that it please you gents, I had fun doing it and it a great non cooperative target, especially on the ChampionVA56's pure gem. If any modder see something wrong or weird, I would be thankful to hear (read) his/her opinion as I'm eager to learn. Have fun and take care -

View File QM-29B Fulcrum Drone -------------------------------------------------------- ----A Tribute Olivier "BPAo" ANGUILLE.---- --------------------------------------------------------- ====================== =QM-29B (9.12B) Drone= ====================== Background: ========== Following the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Russian 4th-generation fighter jets could be obtained through commercial deal, rather than through defection and capture. Likewise, in 1992, 6 Mig-29B (9.12B) were loaned to the USA by an unnamed foreign country for evaluation, testing and, in a few occasion, training. For that purpose, several NATO & friends personal were detached to the 53rd Weapons Evaluation Group. Installation: ========= *A working installation of the SF2 Mescalero Proving Grounds is required, otherwise, it will simply not work.* - decompress the archive to a temporary folder, on your desktop for example - drop the content of the "To your mod folder"... into your mod folder, confirm when asked to overwrite - start your game and enjoy Credits: ====== Original Mig-29A by The Mirage Factory. The gorgeous pit is the MiG-29 Cockpit Repaint by Orsin. The skin is purely fictional but may not have been possible, within a lifetime span given my skills, without the amazing Mig29 Templates by Sundowner. ChampionsVA56 for his guidance and inspiration. Jane's publications, Harpoon High Tide's Data Annex, 1F-MIG29-1 flight manual, Yefim Gordon's books and posts by Tom Cooper from ACIG have been used as reference for datas' fine tuning. If I forgot anyone, let me know and I'll correct it asap. Notes: ===== The QM-29B Fulcrum Drone is available from 1992 to 2002. It have no ECM but have four times as much chaff and flares than normal. The fuel transfer sequence have been made as correct as possible, so watch your fuel, and a boost to the ACM mode's ScanBeamAngle is loosely simulating the IRST device. If you dig in, you may notice unusual Radar Range or Max Visible Distance values. They have been set as is for an ongoing project in which a lot of such things have been normalized and in that environment, they make sense. Given the role of the platform, they should not be an issue amongst default values however. Be advised that the Safe Altitude have been set to 1000 feet (304.8m). Have fun.

Chapeau monsieur! -
hello Umm, it looks like that the few terraformers are actually busy so what about working on Iraq-Iran terrain in the waiting? It have a good part of the GCC countries on it and been overhauled by Wrench recently and I'm sure that your version of temples and locations will be interesting too. Good luck

PROBLEM....
FrankD replied to Derk's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Derk is right, that's a shame to make people crazy with such great playgrounds in a so narrow timeframe. Hey, what about a "Sightseeing Thread" in which would be posted shots of great places from the great terrains around, be it gorgeous landscape or, probably the most interesting for fellow modders, carefully hand placed places? -
Some sounds don't work
FrankD replied to warthog64's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
There are many sounds defined in the xxOBJECT.INI files (found in the ObjectData001.cat). It seems, for example, that the entries in the "[baseSoundType]" section from the AIRCRAFTOBJECT.INI can be customized in the individual aircraft's data.ini file, in the "[sound]" section. -
Nice plane and a rich packaging but it doesn't seems to be formated for SF2 series.

View File SF2 Mescalero Proving Grounds - All-in-One This is nothing more than a repackaging of the ChampionsVA56's gorgeous SF2 Mescalero Proving Grounds that originally came divided in six parts. http://combatace.com/files/file/11645-sf2-mescalero-proving-grounds-part-1/ http://combatace.com/files/file/11646-sf2-mescalero-proving-grounds-part-2/ http://combatace.com/files/file/11656-sf2-mescalero-proving-grounds-part-3/ http://combatace.com/files/file/11678-sf2-mescalero-proving-grounds-part-4/ http://combatace.com/files/file/11699-sf2-mescalero-proving-grounds-part-5/ http://combatace.com/files/file/11721-sf2-mescalero-proving-grounds-part-6/ There is no changes from the original (except some txt and jpg files converted to pdf, but they can be downloaded separately on the forum), so this is only to ease your life if you don't have it yet or need to download it again. All credits goes to ChampionsVA56. Submitter FrankD Submitted 04/01/2011 Category Full Terrains
