Access All Weapons from any country / military branch / service?
EricJ replied to RaddOx7's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
You will which is why I mentioned it. It'll look odd on some planes that's for sure -
Access All Weapons from any country / military branch / service?
EricJ replied to RaddOx7's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Good luck! Also you will probably have to edit the weight and diameter and length of the weapon for it to fit on various pylons, but that's in the _data.ini as well. -

EricJ replied to RaddOx7's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
You go into the Users/Your Name/saved Games/Thirdwire/strike fighters 2 install and edit the weapons. The base weapons you can't modify (least I don't think) but modded weapons you edit the _data.ini of each weapon for Nationname to whatever you want. Same with other aircraft but it seems kinda weird to do that. -

You'd have to edit all the weapons with one service nation to accomplish that. -

How do you like your loadouts ?
EricJ replied to Sundowner's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I tend to use preset loadouts for various missions, such as strikes in Afghanistan I use premade loadouts most of the time. Other times I just modify a loadout using the dropdown menus to get what I want. -
Need help with A-10 cannon sound
EricJ replied to JoeHal11's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I don't know then as it looks good to me as well if your gun folder looks like that. Unfortunately I don't have an A-10 installed anymore to further help. -
Need help with A-10 cannon sound
EricJ replied to JoeHal11's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Did you put the folder in the Objects/Gun folder? That can be the issue with why it's not making a sound, and probably not doing any damage anyways when you fire. OR if you did put the gun folder in the Objects/Gun folder maybe it's not listing the sound. If so then open the 30MM_GAU8_data.ini file and go to GunFireSound= and put the name of the sound after the = sign, so it should look like this: GunFireSound=GAU8 -
Altering AI behaviour.
EricJ replied to garyscott's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I'll second that, as when I did use a wingman I would give him Mavericks as I know he would hit with those instead of bombs, in which he'd miss or whatever when executing an attack run -
Altering AI behaviour.
EricJ replied to garyscott's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
That's why I don't fly with AI wingmen, they're just a hassle to manage and you eventually complete the mission yourself anyways. -
Campaign data.ini, forces section questions
EricJ replied to m275500's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
I think you should leave it false as setting it to TRUE may cause a problem, or simply not work. There is no FAC in the game (SF2) so it may not matter either way. -
Do any of you skinners/artists use a ...
EricJ replied to Geary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
It might but then again you're probably better off finding updated software or getting a new one. -

EricJ replied to Geary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I've used a tablet before (forgot, think it was a Wacom) and found it a different way to do texture work, but I do most of my stuff on mouse now. Pros for me was it was another way to do skinning (didn't do much but it worked out fine), mainly weathering. Cons it was a USB tablet so it took up a USB slot on my laptop. Other con is you might lose the pen (had some velcro put on it to attach it to the tablet). But that was years ago. I don't say it's a bad investment, just that I was capable using my trackball mouse better. -
Games' mods direction
EricJ replied to m275500's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
The game will use the mods folder for Strike Fighters 2 Europe (for your example) and if you have any other game you will be able to use the content from the other games as well. -
Setting two inputs for a single control

No, given it's limited to one control per action already. It's either or -

Auto-flaps.
EricJ replied to alexis99's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yes there is (if the cockpit was done right on the VRS SuperBug) that you can have manual flaps on the real jet. Don't know if they're used of course but I'm sure the option exists. As for auto-flaps I tend to stick with it and ride out the region (last trap I had full fuel, just simply moved the waypoint up to the landing cycle. But I tend to leave the auto flaps on and just do what I gotta do when I fly (rarely now). -
Acting as FAC

Acting as FAC
EricJ replied to 00Mayday00's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
You used to be able to talk to Snoopy back in the days of WOV and so on, but now in SF2 he no longer exists. You can still do CAS missions but no Snoopy or calling ground forces. Also no refuel in SF2, that is all in SF1. -

Auto-flaps.
EricJ replied to alexis99's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I come in around 250 knots or so (or realistically 200 or so) and trap fine. A bit way fast but I don't sink and it seems that I can keep the bird from sinking like you describe when I did carrier landings, everything else I managed to keep from sinking. I can see about recording a video if it'll help -
Game recognising the wrong gpu

Got me, it should automatically select and detect your NVIDIA GPU. -
