Falcon 4 Korea Terrain
EricJ replied to gerwin's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Well I could needless to say afford two pairs of boots, but I never bothered. I could fly other missions too, but I tend to fly strike missions most of the time. I do carry air-to-air missiles as much as possible, so I'm not totally defenseless. And agreed bomber intercepts aren't bad either. -

I always hated Motor Pool Mondays when I was Heavy. Tore up my shined boots, and liked when I went Light and had a Hummer to worry about. Anyway, I mean I'm not expecting a full on targeted map, but it would be nice as I can maybe get back to flying missions again, rather than just fly around and such :) -

Yeah will I able to change the date range though and it still be viable? -

I'm all for big terrains, but the targets have to support it. I know it's harder due to the large size to fully populate it, but the gameplay value is worth it if done right. -

Well honestly I don't fly combat missions anymore, I just free fly around and such. I mean combat is fun, but when you're outshooting the enemy, it's a bit boring too. -

Well if I read that right then I'll need drop tanks for sure, depends on how much I fly it I suppose. -

Impressive to say the least. It looks cool at least, but I hope it's not the 60% compression that SF2 terrains go through. -

I've gotten the Medal Honor on The Range, but not sure how they come up with the way to award people. -
Skin Request Topic
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
No, nobody did them. SidDogg may have done something but I'm not sure. The skin template however is in the Downloads section though. -
Getting Back Into It...
EricJ replied to PFunk's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
ODS mod, as well as a slew of new mods in the File Announcements, that's your best bet in finding something new. -
Skin Request Topic
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Yeah I can't do it, the template isn't that great on the Viper Team (even though it's a ravenclaw one), and I don't have the TW Template either, so I'm out. -

EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Which F-16 though? The Viper Team one, or the 3W one? Or doesn't it matter? -

Yeah you're doing it all wrong. Take this Soundlist.ini and ADD that stuff to the one I gave you from the Tornado pack. in sequential order. SOUNDLIST.INI -
DA's TOTALLY TERRIFIC THREAD OF STICKERIFFIC IMPROVEMENTIFICATIONS. and stuff
EricJ replied to daddyairplanes's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
For some reason I won't fly SF2 Hawgs. I don't know why but maybe I like the gadgets and doohickeys of the DCS plane better, even though I never flew in an online squadron. Anyway it's looking pretty good DA -
Custom Aircraft Sounds Info
EricJ replied to Menrva's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Knowledge Base
Well normally what we do is take the one from the CAT File and add to it, and it works like that. My only thought is that it may be out of order on the Soundlist.ini that you have already, but it's a complete one, but check the sequence and see if it's not a typo or something, as "Cannon" is a default sound, and something is out of whack apparently, and I'm trying to help (not that well I apologize) figure it out. -
Custom Aircraft Sounds Info
EricJ replied to Menrva's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Knowledge Base
Well the CAT extractor is in the Download section under Utilities. I looked at the gun files and it says "Cannon", so I assume the default sound. Hopefully guruu chimes in and helps, because it looks like it should work right out of the box. -

EricJ replied to Menrva's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Knowledge Base
I'm thinking you have a "virgin" Soundlist.ini and it's reading off of that. What you should do is using the CAT Extractor, find the game's soundlist.ini and add that gun sound to it, and put it in the Flight folder. -

Looks like somebody doesn't have a good taste in sodas... -
WIP Mega THREAD!
EricJ replied to ErikGen's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
We should have a Skin Request Topic, so we can consolidate all the skin requests, much like how the Arma forums do that, so people can request stuff without posting in various topics. That way texture artists can visit the topic and say yay or nay. -
Operation Desert Storm: 30th Anniversary Edition

Does this have an OV-10D? Or is it just the A? -
Time to improve the old SF2 jets
EricJ replied to GKABS's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Well that sheds light on what the end result is, because so far I can't tell what the TRIM (never heard of it really) looks like. Thanks snapper21 -

EricJ replied to Mr_Tayto's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yeah this is by far the best place for content. I mean there's DAT, but then again the policies and the weird nature of the place turns me off, as while I haven't applied there, I stick mainly to here due to less drama and the like. -

EricJ replied to Mr_Tayto's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
That's fair and I think a lot of players here look at the Vietnam war as a pinnacle of aviation, and support the aviation side. My beef somewhat is the high rate of civilian casualties on the ground, I'm a former US Army Soldier, and I so far haven't killed a civilian between two combat deployments, so I have a sort of stuck up personality of the war. Anyway, it's mainly the tech that keeps me away. A lot of things were only done because of the level of tech. I have flown in the map at least with modern planes, and it's an interesting thing (imagine Hanoi with SA-10s and the like, yeesh!) given the technology ot today versus SA-2s and the like. It was a good thing that the SA-2 was what it was, and thankfully didn't down too many planes during that war.
