Combatace access issues.
EricJ replied to whiteknight06604's topic in Site Support / Bug Reports / Suggestions
Yeah tried resetting the router and no joy. I guess it is the personal access as now I cannot access the site on either Edge or Firefox. It times out now but other sites work fine. Ill keep trying though. -

EricJ replied to whiteknight06604's topic in Site Support / Bug Reports / Suggestions
I'm getting the same "403 Forbidden" problem though, on XFINITY as I can't access the site on Firefox (phone works fine too), but can access the site via Microsoft Edge. So I don't think it's his router or wifi acting up as I'm having the issue too on a different setup. I didn't change anything as far as router or anything different, so it seems more like a site issue rather than a personal issue. Also should note that it worked fine yesterday on Firefox no issues, today it's giving me the 403 Forbidden error today. -
Nearly impossible to locate the target in "HUD Hard Settings"
EricJ replied to citizen67's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Well, the padlock feature isn't era-specific and is probably the only way to orient yourself to the target. I mean when I fight WVR I use padlock all the time to keep oriented on the enemy fighter. I use it to orient me to the ground target and so on. -

I use the padlock feature and guided bombs or Mavericks to help me find targets. -

Looking pretty cool, can't wait to see the final result! -
How good/complex is the official TW Mission editor?
EricJ replied to Flapsfull's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
For the mission editor, you look at the bottom right when selecting a mission and click the little pen icon, that'll bring you into the mission editor. On the upper right are icons you can use to edit the mission. You can change the aircraft and it lists all the available aircraft flights for that given mission. If you want to edit a flight click the airplane icon and select that flight. You can delete the flight (unless it's an intercept or Fighter sweep mission) and add flights to the mission if you want some more enemies or if you want to add friendly flights to the mission. There is a map that is shown and a crosshair. Move that crosshair around to place a flight. There you can specify what base it flies from and so on. You can also add ships and ground objects to the mission (other than the target) by placing them with the crosshair and moving the map around. Next, you can place a ship in the ocean or lake with the ship icon. Next, you can place a naval fleet by placing that in the ocean or whatnot. -

Yeah, I don't remember the reasoning for his ban (it could be modifying the code which wasn't open-source or some other reason) but anyways that happened and nothing came about it anyways. Back on topic though I do hope for some more detailed use of a targeting pod. I mean they're all the same (except for name and shape of course), that would make it very interesting to play with. That and MFDs that worked so you can have some fun with managing that stuff in mods -

Other than mlracing (who is banned if I remember correctly) we don't really have a programmer in the midst given the level of editing that has been around. More than likely if the code was released then I'm sure a programmer would come along. Until then most of the stuff are just dreams. -

It would definitely be nice to have multiplayer. I do it in another game and enjoy it. Not SF2 where you fly alone with suspect wingman (don't know what you'll get) and generally fly single-player. A lot of stuff would open up if there was multiplayer though. Virtual squadrons, etc. -

Red is the default color when they're doing something to you. -

It's out and you need an Xbox controller. https://store.thirdwire.com/project_sfmc.htm -
Strike Fighters Modern Combat, it's here.
EricJ replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yeah the bottom says it's still 2017, so I don't think it's old, maybe they didn't update it. I just saw this so I figured it was new, maybe it isn't... -
Lockheed/FMA IA-16 "Serpiente"

I never was part of the FA-18A team, I did a few skins but I can't be credited with that aircraft. -
Pilot Figure Issue
EricJ replied to Carter28's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I see. What you should do is go to the _Data.ini of the plane and see what the PilotModelName= is in the [Pilot] entry. It may be as simple as two entries, or maybe the seat is a pilot model. -

WOV? Wrong forum... -
The B-1? We already have a B-1 if I remember correctly, though not with the Sniper pod.

Yeah, that's the problem with SC, only one system so far. They're working on a second one but yeah, ED is more complete.

I would mention Star Citizen, but it's still basically in development. But like daddyairplanes I believe there is life out there, they just haven't found us or we haven't found them yet.

Nice videos GKABS, Turkey looks pretty nice so far.

Looking good -
All hail Mue!
EricJ replied to Major Bloodnok's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I like his LOD Viewer too, as said saves time firing up the game trying to match camouflages on skins. And the ability to refresh it is great, better than the viewer for DCS. -
SF2 minimizing to Desktop
EricJ posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
This just recently started and want to know if there is a workaround. I'm guessing the latest updates to Windows 10 is severely blocking me from using the game. I had an initial workaround by making it Run as Administrator and it seemed to be fine. Is anybody else having this issue and if so what did you do as a workaround? I've also tried Compatibility set to Windows 7 but no joy so far. -

Yeah that seems to be the issue, as now it works fine. Computers, goofy shit for sure... -

What type of mission are you flying that this problem comes up? -
