My Projects (EricJ)
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Okay it's getting to the point that I honestly don't know what to add anymore. I'm getting the strong feeling that the skin is done for the most part. There will be (I hope) a PSD available so you can make your own but if people have any suggestions they're always welcome. This is for the Thunderwarrior. -
Effect tutorial?
EricJ replied to Eagle114th's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
You'd have to go a place like http://www.simmerspaintshop.com/ and learn stuff like that there. And a lot of it is taking the base files and using a paint program (GIMP, Photoshop, etc.) -

VAQ-129 100 Years Centennial Scheme
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Thanks! Unfortunately most of them revolve around the Super Hornet and so far the other fictional one and this one are my favorites. The digital patterned one isn't a favorite and I just don't like it. -

Well it is annoying but I'm not going to remove it. -
FLIR/TV screen slowdowns
EricJ replied to ST0RM's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Go into the Avioincs.ini and find the available Modes. and delete the "TV" notation as I've had the same problem and now since I delete that there is some stutter but not as bad before. I assume the "TV" has become redundant through the patching. -

SF2 Screenshot Thread
EricJ replied to Stary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yeah both are the same way. I haven't gotten in a Hornet vs Hornet fight yet but when I went up against a Super Bug I got into a turning fight and he won by pure energy (I was just trying to stay aloft) and he came around and shot me down. The M2000 is sneaky and will take the shot when it has the angle on you and in most cases he;s turning inside of you which is how he managed to get his shots in.. I caught him in a mistake and shot him down with a 9X. The Raptor is the same way though you'll never get a lock on (even with the -73 I didn't pick him up, the AWG-9 might have a better chance) Best way is to hit T until you can "see" him and that's how I managed to beat him and a lucky shot in the wing, blowing off his ailerons and he tried to fly but he eventually spun too much out of control to stay aloft and the pilot ditched. -
Looking for a SF2 MiG-29

They already looked at it and said it wasn't "mature enough" for their air force at least that's what i read somewhere though it may be just op-ed.

Thanks daddyairplaines got the Chair Farce hounding us. But in any case the same manual is for the Air Force grunts because they gotta take the pre-test to just even use the manual "Man I don't know if I'll pass..." -

I've been pretty much been doing the same though out of these: F-15C (85) Su-27 F-22A F-14 M2000 F-4 Mig-29 The F-15, Su-27, Raptor, and M2000 are the ones you gotta watch out for (the Su-27 tries to always slide back and chop you up. First time it got me but I watch it like a hawk better and the M2000 got a couple hits on me) as they try to go for the energy fight but I've been lucky so far (all on Expert). The only reason it takes so long with the F-14 and F-4 is that they're real easy to "read" and countermaneuver due to their heavier weight and even with testing the EDE engines letting them extend sets them up for a missile shot or a guns kill. The MiG i think I just popped with a 'winder and called it a day. -
Weapons number
EricJ replied to DEVIL11's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I don't think anybody has gotten that far in numbering... I know I'm at around 2200+ weapons so not sure, go to the Thirdwire Forums and ask. TK may answer that question as I don't know. http://www.thirdwire.com -

Mirage Factory F-14B Laser Guided Bombs
EricJ replied to mosherec's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
http://562.50megs.com/562nd/Tutorials/GuidedWeapons.zip you have to load a targeting pod on the right sponson pylon. I think it's done automatically by MF since there is no D model out. But the zip file above in PDF shows how to generally use them. I still need to do a moving targets portion sometime.. -

Ejecting flares right after a bomb drop. Thankfully the bomb was out of line with them or a really cool shot would have ended up disastrous. Wounded bird. It should be quite obvious that if I were to face a real Tomcat in BVR I would be smoked (and have been a few times during testing). It's just interesting to watch the AI perform and also improve my gunnery skills. -

Helios and why don't they fly correctly in the game engine
EricJ replied to draken's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The issue is that it wasn't designed for helicopters so what you see is what you get, and that's the best they could have done given the limits that are hardcoded. -

Okay go into the F-16_DATA file and look at the Right chin" and find the line "AllowedWeaponClass=" and add "DLP" to it and go back into the game and it should show up.
