Two-Seater Tuesdays
EricJ replied to allenjb42's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Screen Shots
I need to get back into SF2 besides the Super Hornet sometime. I just like an Intruder every now and then... -
WIP Mega THREAD!
EricJ replied to ErikGen's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Ahh okay. Yeah if it fits then he could use that of course. Cool. -

That's for the best really as you'd have to make a cockpit too. Maybe angelp has something, but I agree. -
nations/squadron markings for skins
EricJ replied to yes's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I don't know what Cat file the Nations.ini is in, but if you do a massive dump with the CAT Extractor you can get a virgin copy of it, and by following the same format you can add other nations (and new ones) to that file. Then you put it in the Flight folder in your mod folder, and the nations would appear. -

I really like the UH-60 and especially the SOAR variants. But given the lack of real FM support I usually pass on the helos. I like the Apache as well, but again since SF2 wasn't really setup for helos, it's kinda not my interest. -
Mirage F-1C-200
EricJ replied to ludo.m54's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I mean I don't particularly like the Mirage F1, but the team has been putting out some good stuff just from the screenshots. -
Question about legality of using .LOD art assets
EricJ replied to snowburn's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Sounds like you're trying to create a new game using the stuff from here. I would think that it wouldn't be a good idea since the file format and other stuff is proprietary to the game, so you may be out of luck. I mean you can try and contact TK and such, but since we paid for the game, then I don't know, doesn't seem like you can do it, but that's my 2 cents. I would recommend finding a new format and making tools that allow you to mod the game you're looking to make. I mean it'll save you legal hassles from Thirdwire if they find out about it. -
EricJ Taliban Fighters RC29 - Requires Game Version 2.18 - A new faction, the Taliban Red Unit, was added, modeled after the real unit. It has a Team Leader, RPG Gunner, MG Gunner, Medic, Rifleman, and a Sniper unit. They are slightly more competent and armed with Armaverse NATO weapons as per the real-world unit.

My next terrain project
EricJ replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I'd go with that too, though I really didn't read all of them, though I think I read like one of them but don't remember which. -
My next terrain project
EricJ replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I agree with allenbj42 as while the US is divided, it's not yet ready for another Civil War, and it wouldn't be about Trump. I figure with the current attitude with Putin a real US vs. Russia scenario is more fitting than political discord. I mean we're fighting each other in social media and so on, but overall we're not at the brink. -

SF2 F-86F Sabre, 461st FDS, USAFE Skin Pack
EricJ replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Huh, I always thought that Sabres were all metal. I mean I've seen mainly those, so that's interesting to see these. -
Time to improve the old SF2 jets
EricJ replied to GKABS's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
The Tomcats are done well, and shouldn't be redone at all... I mean yeah they are old, but TMF isn't bad quality work IMHO. Besides who's going to make the cockpits? Recycle the old ones? But a Viggen I can get behind though -
Need some minor modeling assistance
EricJ replied to simonmiller416's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Yeah but even then I go to Turbo Squid to find something I want too and used a few of their models for projects for a couple of games. It's not a matter of laziness but being economical with time lol -

The latest CDLC for Arma 3 just came out and some dude was griping over 7.99 (that was the full price of it), and trying to get it on sale. I mean why not support a local group with some money to make more content, than trying to buy it cheap. Really set me off. I didn't say anything but yeah, some people spend more on coffee than on content for games. I mean 3W has some money, but 5.99 isn't too bad for somebody to buy either.
