Wasn't there an F15 in Gulf War I that did that to an Iraqi helicopter? You would have no clue it was even coming... You'd just be gone... -

Help to rotate the default map 90º to the right
Major Lee replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The TE has controls to rotate the displayed HFD... The stock Dhimar map is of southeastern Africa, rotated 90 degrees, so the "geo" is "real", only the "political" is fictional... -
How Come all Combat flight Sims are stuck in the WWII era...
Major Lee replied to SkyStrike's topic in The Pub
To answer the original question, the entire official SF series has hit everything BUT WWII. The only other part missing is, of course, the most modern avionics of the last couple of decades. Of course, modders have filled in MANY blanks for the SF series, which was the entire point of SF anyway... For me personally, the earlier sims tug at my youthful memories, recalling the aircraft I read about in my mis-spent youth... (can I get a refund, USAFMTL?) The most modern jets have no nostalgic pull at my hearts memories... As for graphic loads, my current machine is nearly maxed out with upgrades. I can go one step better to a 7600 x 512mbDDR video card, and that will be it. CPU is maxed, RAM is maxed... I would dearly love to be able to break down and buy a new monster Alienware something or other... just not right now. As for Windows Vista, the thought of an OS that requires 15GB of space is just too bloated for my mind... ML -
Nice to see you here...

Decal problems in flight
Major Lee replied to {FL}Hausser's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Hausser, have you seen the SF decal tutorial? http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...mp;showfile=345 This is a "must read" for modders... It will explain about "levels" and how sequentially ordered decals are applied... I see you do not have "decal level" on your ini.... -
Decal problems in flight
Major Lee replied to {FL}Hausser's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Hausser, please post your decal.ini here... Probably a "level" issue... ( 0, 1 or 2)... (refer to the decal instructions in the CA download section) -
TGA tiles modding trouble
Major Lee replied to peyo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Objects (LOD files) have a known issue with tiles that have an associated HM file... This may well apply with TOD files too, not sure. Known bug, TK just hasn't gotten around to fixing it... -

TGA tiles modding trouble
Major Lee replied to peyo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=21102 This thread has information about TGA alpha layer... Be sure to look closely at a stock tile that has water and you will see what needs to be in place to designate water... ML. -

Man the Hog Sabre is so close... The flat tail from the K, four 20mms and the F40 wing... Just thicken up the fuselage a little vertically... Add in an 8900# engine and away we go...
