Campaign Idea's
EricJ replied to Hawk MMS's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
In reflection, Operation Dreamland (Chapter 17) is perhaps still the best story of them anyways. Shouldn't be too difficult to design something like that, given the cities involved and it's targetable in WoE. -
Takeoff from Carriers
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
Well so far the best route is from the mirror, not so much the actual download link. We've had issues as well as me, and so far right now there's not move to fix it. -
You know you've been simming to know what Kali.net was. I had a talk with USAFMTL about that, and I've been hankering for a sqadron, but I'm too Lone Wolf for it though. Maybe as an online trainer, and for fun, but that's about it.

This is the new "Toy" for the Israeli Special Forces
EricJ replied to Nesher's topic in Military and General Aviation
Well we'll probably treat it like the Lavi, tell them not to make it, then sell something crappier.... nice looking though, needs a ring mount.. -
That's called desperation, I mean Oklahoma.. god I can't wait to leave this s**thole.

Sorry, my Sidewinder Precision 2 is my stick, and will stay that way until it really dies out...

Are Laser Guided Weapons modeled?
EricJ replied to TurtleHawk's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Tutorial updated, along with mission, same link too. -

The more modern aircraft use either the lightning, LANTIRN. Older aircraft (Vietnam-era) use the Pave Spike. -
Takeoff from Carriers
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
Yeah I mean the Kuz. It used to be real difficult but once I got it, I've been doing night, day traps, some inclement weather. It's just easy. The problem I'm having is my stabs jack up the up trim, so I'm more or less fighting the aircraft, and not concentrating on snagging the wire. Moving isn't too big of an issue but still, if you can do over 200 and so on, then it shouldn't be to hard in the sim. And yeah I've done some real bad landings, smacked into the tail, etc. -
F18E or F18 blue angels skin ?
EricJ replied to FooFighters's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
USAFMTL again is right. Since I got something to work off of, work that will be done with the one I got (which again, won't be released) to develop weapons, stores, etc. When a more complete model is in fruition, then I'll send them to USAFMTL so we can add it to the one in development. Besides, the one I got is crap, which is why I was so anxious to get it started. But the E version would be nice, kinda like a Super Hornet Pack or something, I mean still got the EA-18 to do.. Woulnd't want all that work to go to waste -
Are Laser Guided Weapons modeled?
EricJ replied to TurtleHawk's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I actually got a tutorial in use in the works (or I gotta fix some mission issues) for LGBs, but here's the PDF: http://562.50megs.com/WOE/Tutorials/GWU.zip -
Talon Weapons:Blue ferret, AGM truncheons Etc..
EricJ replied to Shin_kazama's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
It's not difficult, probably just copy a weapon and then add the model instead of a regular missile (such as a Mav) and so be it. -
F-16 Question
EricJ replied to FrankTB's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Wing doesn't blend as it should, but cool nontheless... -
Takeoff from Carriers
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
Well that's cool, but you got some tips and tricks for non-Navy airjocks? I've done the Su-33 in LOMAC and can trap real good now, but since I don't know how to do it in an F-14 I need some help.... -
F-14D VF-213 "Lions Head"
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I agree, I mean more or less by mid-tour and of course end-of tour they get this bad. So yeah after this one I'm going to work on a VF-31 CAG: -
F18E or F18 blue angels skin ?
EricJ replied to FooFighters's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Haha hows about an E version (or make that one the Growler?) instead? since I got somebody on the F version already... Though I've sorta started on some weapons stuff for it, got the dual AMRAAM rails started (from a version capun helped me with). Plus I got some ALQ-99 models from that pack that was previously talked about, so I gotta get a hold of that maker and get those in. -
SU-27 US
EricJ replied to Falcon161's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
Yeah true, though I unzipped it using 7zip too, so it doesn't look too bad :) BTW Falcon161 I took a screenshot for you of it and added to your file description. -
BRU Help
EricJ replied to Bravo2009's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
LGB, currently the JDAMs are treated like LGBs in WOE purposes for use, so to use them you'll need a targeting pod too (Lightning, etc.) -
F-14D VF-213 "Lions Head"
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Actually I'm getting quite interested in Carrier landing procedures, as I've been trying to trap in WOE and can't do it for the life of me. Now in LOMAC I can VFR trap in an Su-33 loaded to the gills but this is insane. I mean are the horizontal stabs supposed to act like you just added a crapload of up trim? -
Fictional fighters submenu
EricJ replied to Shin_kazama's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Well the ratio is really amount of topics, not so much of anything else. If it's a few topics yeah okay we leave it alone. Member the emphasis is amount of topics, not so much the type. So for now since there's only two topics, we'll leave it alone for now. -
Talon Weapons:Blue ferret, AGM truncheons Etc..
EricJ replied to Shin_kazama's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
yeah it's just some super duper high-tech names for some super duper stuff. I'm sure a good modder could make them up. -
First look at SV-51r/a Ivanov Production Type
EricJ replied to foxmonter's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Was going to ask are you going to release this individually given it's going to be a mod or? (yes I read above but it's beautiful so I had to ask anyways...) -

Any updates? -

I've been using the CVA-63, and this is a "successful" trap: -
F-14D VF-213 "Lions Head"
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Only thing I did was use a hex editor to change the texture name and created a new tank. Unfortunately you can't switch between different styles of tanks (i.e. this one and the original one) within WoE, so you use this one for all of them or just this one, the option should be there, but it's not unfortunately. And finally I got a nice shot during a decent part of the day:
