Freakin' SA-8's
EricJ replied to malibu43's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Damn straight man, EA is a reality these days, and I apply that logic even in the sims. Not sure how a Spark Vark works against an SA-10.... but that's just something to check out.. -
Anatolian Terrain (WIP)
EricJ replied to PureBlue's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
That is good to hear, as I've still kept WOE and waiting until SF2:E is "mature" enough for me to consider switching over.... Definitely interested in this terrain... -

Aid for installation F/A-18F Super Hornet ?
EricJ replied to AGOSTINO's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Confirmed only LAU-105. I checked the folders where I put the LAU-115C's in (A too for the AHM) and they were deleted. Not sure what is causing that but maybe game logic? -

EricJ replied to AGOSTINO's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well dual IRM is confirmed, but AHM is not. I just loaded them up and flew a recce flight to verify if the SHARP works (it does) but I was able to select "4 AIM-9 series" missiles but didn't verify what type rails showed up. -

EricJ replied to AGOSTINO's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well I got most of the weapons converted over, and if I remember correctly, the SF2 engine doesn't utilize dual IRM or AHM rails (Specificially the LAU-115Cs). I had just checked it out but all the other stuff works fine. -
Freakin' SA-8's
EricJ replied to malibu43's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Ehh I just jam the thing. Doing some Jammer testing and if you got a good jammer, you can stroll right up to it or pop it with a Mav. Though usually I think in those terms because I don't take wingman anymore on strike missions. CAS maybe or the rare CAP, but no no no. -

EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well we all get tied up in stuff, so not trying to sharpshoot, just making sure things are straight man, and after that many weapons... yeah I'd be just as jacked up. -
F-22A Version 2.01 Update
EricJ replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Definitely an improvement I got an airshow video of the Raptor, if needed for any extra FM tweaking. -
AT-6B by Fast Cargo
EricJ replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
If me mind serves me right they're looking at it for a replacement for the Texan, and possible COIN aircraft. Personally I'd get rid of the gunpods and substitute bombas for CAS missions though. Not that the .50 isn't respectable, but I like the BOOM better -

For Wyvern lovers...

Occasionally it is nice to fly this one, and the OV-10, as sometimes you gotta take it slow... -

EricJ replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I was doing a CAS mission in SEA one time, I had the jammer going, and streaming the ALE. I flew over a SA-13 site and nothing happened. My escort flight nearly got swatted down by that same one... so I think it's a combo of both that totally kept it from flying, as the escort birds flew the same general flightpath. -

Aid for installation F/A-18F Super Hornet ?
EricJ replied to AGOSTINO's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I've been slow to get around to updating the aircraft. I do have SF2 and trying to get more familiar with it, and update the weapon files for SF2. Silverbolt hooked me up with the missing textures for SF2. In the zip file, courtesy of Silverbolt, are the ones you put in the "FA-18F/cockpit" folder. Also the updated readme that covers that. Suffice to say it's not a priority, and still trying to wrap my head around the custom drop tank texture tutorial from KB. It's good but leaves me with the question of really, what do I have to do? Once I get that figgered out I'll probably get off my butt and upload it. Two weeks as usual Just be advised that the Readme is still WIP as I figure out more stuff But I have it in SF2 and the Refueller mod doesn't affect it. Some people may have issues with it, as one did (but think that was a joystick issue). And since nobody else has complained about it (least as far as I know) I may remove those lines.

Well in all honesty, it's not so much the aircraft, just teh weapon itself. I just happen to have managed to get those moved over lately so when things work better, I'll get more in. And Dave, always appreciated bro, don't know what I would do without your help with this series -
Modding acft for SF2-Vietnam
EricJ replied to mppd's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I can't say that SF2 isn't the best, some methods, once figured out, is pretty cool. But I'm not quick to remove WoX yet, as I got the Vista freeze issues (got it somewhat tweaked so it's not freezing up all the time) so moving stuff around isn't an option yet until the freezing up goes away. Overall impression is it's good, but over time once people understand the various issues it'll be allright. But... I do agree, it's not the most preferable method (rather than having everything in the same game folder is nice) and really not efficient, it's not too bad. Just gotta be patient, and asking questions is the best way to do it. -
Is it just me?
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well methinks more of a model issue, rather than just an INI issue now... The missing weapon image is the AGM-65G model, and the other one is the AGM-65E... not sure what the deelio is. -

EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
True enough... but when you try all the limited tricks you can think of, and still no worky, time to ask. -
Is it just me?
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yeah... But the thing is all weapons act as they should. So I'm guessing I delete the weapondata that is installed and just drop them in the folder and it creates it's own based on the INI data already in the folder? But I still don't understand how it causes a rendering problem.. I'll reinstall it and try that theory out. Gotcha column5, sometimes you gotta be the retarded one to figure stuff out...
