No enemy fighters
EricJ replied to warthog64's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
And that's affected by the USERLIST.ini, if one is present. If not you may have to create one for the plane. I'm sure that the MIG-21s and -23s will show up. I think they show up regardless of mission if you're BLUFOR. -

Yeah, it's interesting as you have to cleanse the site. Which makes a Growler kind of useless in some ways, or a Prowler. Then again I haven't played many SEAD missions in-game so I don't know everything about cleansing a site. -

Yeah that would be realistic, but have a good VisibleDistance to mimic "targeting pod acquisition" to pick them off though. I mean once you kill the radar you obviously neuter the whole site. Of course though, setting up jammers is a "how will this work?" situation. -

The radar on the S-300 series is hard to hit. It's not lost on the two people who've done it (Fubar512 and Farid) and hopefully, this'll be the same, but then again I won't complain if you can shoot it :) -

Isn't it dependent on your install and what planes you have? -

True, but at least the same issue with the other F-35C is the HUD. I get that it's "floating" but they could have used a window so you can see the HUD symbols and such, as I haven't found a good color for it yet. -

Looking good at least so far. -
I'd like to see a skin like this
EricJ replied to UllyB's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
More than likely add it with a FakePilot method as I don't think it exists (one can be made of course). -

EA-18G VAQ-562 Line July 2023 [Fictional]
EricJ posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
View File EA-18G VAQ-562 Line July 2023 [Fictional] This is a fictional skin to complement the VAQ-562 skin that I released last month. In it you'll find all of the necessary files to use the plane. Simply install it properly and go fly. It can be found under VAQ-562 Line July 2023 in the drop-down menu Submitter EricJ Submitted 08/11/2023 Category F-18 -

My Projects (EricJ)
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Here's how the line one will work. It'll be weathered just like the CAG bird. I had to make custom decals for the tail, so the numbers could be seen. I removed the shark mouth from the line bird, but otherwise somewhat similar to the CAG version. -

EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Spent some time mulling over what I'm going to do next. I was mulling over a "Line" VAQ-562 bird since I did the CAG bird and wouldn't require much to do to make one. Another thing is to make a current VFA-31 Tomcatter Line Bird (all I've seen were the line birds when they did an exercise as currently deployed) for the Block III bird. Still no word from FastCargo on the 3D work I requested, so essentially that's on hold until he can work it out. Really not much on the plate so far, but that's where in the short term it looks like anyway. I can probably do the VAQ-562 Line skin today after typing this though, so it should be up within an hour or two. -

I mean from a skinning point of view it doesn't seem to be a skin issue, more or less a modeling issue. -

Really going to have to mod some planes, but then again... -

Loaded up on some JAGMs and played plink the target with the valley I setup a wide variety of targets on the SoCal map. -

That'll work, as it's nice to not to always have to switch to the in-flight map to orient yourself. -

Well on the current EF2000 the HSI is linked to the RWR, so you can still navigate and then still have the RWR visible. How to do it I don't know of course, but it looks like it can be done though. Or I could be wrong, it's been a while since I flew it. -

ambush/sneak attack
EricJ replied to one4five's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Yeah then again with my DACT reports I never really used the radar (cold nose) and they would "sense me" and then dodge, but I needed that to do maneuvering and such to get them to react, so it wasn't an issue. But yeah, some of them would be easy if they didn't have it. Maybe it models the mirrors, and you get close enough to "see" you, which could be an explanation. I'm not a programmer so I wouldn't know how to fix that issue, so we're stuck with it. -

Yeah I feel you without the wingman, I fly solo all the time myself. -

No HSI? I mean honestly it's not a deal breaker as I may fly it once or twice, but on the F-35C you may want to sneak that in somewhere, would be real handy.
