My Projects (EricJ)
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Too bad it hasn't gotten off the ground though... JAT81500 tweaked the lights, now I can start painting them, working on the F cockpit a bit. Like to add that I've added Vampyre to the team... he's more the expert than probably all of us, so I figured his opinion or insight would be helpful. -
Any good tutorial how to make an airplane skin
EricJ replied to Gunnar88's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Alot of times skinning is aggravating for the reasons to include above. Even sometimes with a 3D layer (which helps out soooooo much!) it can depend on the person's mapping skills, which overall has been superb here. About half the time I'm skinning I'm doing tests on the 3D layer more than the camo layer (which depending, is the easiest, It also for me requires going back and forth, seeing where things are and taking a stab, because the mapper knows more than you do, and sometimes you just gotta ask the stupid question "where is this at?" -

True enough but I really don't look at the shadows, and .shd files create their own issues, like a line that extends from the aircraft to the shadow on the ground, so honestly I don't even pay attention to the ground shadow half the time. If it becomes too much of a consternation, it's a bug in the README. But the multi-lod is a grea idea.... I'm having no issues personally but yeah it would be nice -
Operation Desert Storm: Desktop Icon Replacement
EricJ replied to Brennus's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
I don't really want to drag this on anymore, but even I can't be the prick I used to be on the Ubi Soft LO forums, so it's good you've known it, just that the spirit isn't trying to bring too much crap into the forums. So on that note, issue closed, topic open. -
LOL is right, I've snapped on a Soldier once, but then again he deserved it, to a point. Had to apologize to him... but the world still turns if some dude jacks up a scene. I mean you can always reshoot it......

Update to the F model, JAT81500 did VFA-103 "Jolly Rogers". -
Screenshot Thread
EricJ replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Because they see it as a "bomb" and drop accordingly, which is why I tend to give them Mavs in lieu of bombs, they don't waste them as much, or give them slicks instead. -

Screenshot Thread
EricJ replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well if they have something remotely close I'll ini edit it, can't leave the runway without one... saved my butt so many times... Besides I rarely load the centerline anyways whenever I fly, so nice -

Screenshot Thread
EricJ replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
True enough, I'll go over that eventually just so you know , just haven't flown it much really. And I had an article on Marine AV-8Bs and one was pictured with a jammer (think it was the one you described), I just never took the time mod the ini, and knew that already though... -

Drop it in the main directory, I had the same issue d3dx9_31.zip -
S-67 blackhawk americas HIND
EricJ replied to rotarycrazy's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Sci-Fi/Anime/What If Forum
Yeah.. but the lack of a proper FM.. makes them useless IMHO. I know some have gotten somewhere, I haven't seen anything to make it worthwhile to download it. -

EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
And since I'm on that subject. Just quick like while I'm working on the skin for the ATFLIR. FC figureamajigged it so it rotates like a turret. I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure due to game limitations it can't orient itself to the locked on target. But it's a neaty little feature anyways, and quite cool actually. And no again, due to limitations, you cannot aim the pod itself. -
Vista and the CAT extractor - gotcha
EricJ replied to comrpnt's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Seriously? I've been using the Cat extractor from the get go and no issues..... -

A Reminder Before You Upload a Mod
EricJ replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I'm sure the part of it was the saying that the A109 Hirundo by somebody who's name I forgot and claming it as his/her work. SO that's part of the issue and fully agree. -
On a real honest note on this subject, they're just toooooo huge to be worth anything to be excited about. Large is fine, but that's too much for my tastes.

I don't think really anybody is doing that, not much use for helos in TW sims unfortunately... -

Horny Dude (can't say it without wanting to laugh....) but they're right, we're not simpletons, but I can simply give you a warning and simply ban you. We have our days, but we're not idiots. Cut it out. -
This is pretty hard given the topic on breasts... but yeah people, take your hormones to PM and keep it off the site before we get out of hand.
