B-52G Bomb Sight & Fixes
dfang posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
This little pack contains a useable bomb sight & some minor fixes for the B-52G, thanks to Wpnssgt.. :) It has a modified data.ini,a choice of 3 diff color Norden bomb sights,a cockpit ini example, & a test mission. The Bomb sights zip located in the "Making Your Dumb Bombs Smarter" post has to be operational in order for this sight to work properly. It's a lot of fun dropping bombs on target from 30,000 ft with the B-52G... Instructions provided in readme ... ******************************************************************** ******************************************************************** ******************************************************************** ******************************************************************** ******************************************************************** B_52G_Bomb_Sights.zip -

WOV-using carriers for single missions
dfang replied to sunliner's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Ron, This mission is made for WoV because it has VietnamSEA terrain & the CVA-63 carrier. You can install carriers & different terrains into SFP1...from people (modders) that have created them and put them out for download for us to enjoy.. :) The msn file is created when,,,you copy & SAVE the text i posted to notepad,,name it what ever you want,,then make it a msn file by putting .msn at the end of what ever you named the mission..example: Carrier Launch.msn or F-4J Attack.msn..then it will be saved as a msn file,which you can copy & paste it into your mission folder,,then it will show up in your single mission selection menu... ,,,but in order for the mission to work,,you must have the correct terrain,aircraft,objects (carrier) to match the mission... Here is a site or two that will help you understand what you need to get carriers up and running,,er..i mean floating.. ,Column5 is a good site... http://ca.geocities.com/saganuay820/...http://www.column5.us/ I would try & get to the bottom of why WOV won't load,,Is it a original Version?? -

WOV-using carriers for single missions
dfang replied to sunliner's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hi sunliner, Here is a simple cat launch missioin,,,using the CAV-63,F-4J Phantom II, & Vietnam terrain,it will give you a idea how missions are made.. As Fubar says you have to create your own missions/campaigns,or rely on someone else to do them & make em available for download... The CVA-63 is the carrier that comes with WoV,,but you can download & install many more that modders have made... Just copy this to notepad,rename it to what you want,make it a msn file,install in your mission folder,,go fly,,,,hope you like it... ******************************************************************** [MissionHeader] AircraftType=F-4J MissionMap=VietnamSEA MissionType=CAP StartDate=05/10/1972 StartTime=16:00 [Weather] WeatherType=CLEAR WeatherAlt=4000.0 WeatherThickness=500.0 FogAmount=0.6 ContrailAlt=8000 StartWindDirection=90.0 StartWindSpeed=0.0 WindGustingAmount=0.0 [MissionData] FriendlyAirActivity=1 EnemyAirActivity=1 FriendlyAirDefenseActivity=1 EnemyAirDefenseActivity=1 PlayerMissionID=1 PlayerPositionID=1 MissionNumber=1 AdjustStartPosition=FALSE AdjustBaseWaypoint=TRUE [AircraftMission001] AircraftType=F-4J Name=SHOWTIME FormationType=USFighter Size=1 RandomChance=100 MissionType=CAP ObjectiveID=0 RatingForSuccess=50 Position=652000.0,565000.0,0.0 Heading=90.0 Speed=0.0 Alignment=FRIENDLY Nation=USN Texture=USNGrey1 Squadron=VF96 AircraftNumber=00 PilotTrainingStandard=EXCELLENT CarrierBased=TRUE StartOnGround=TRUE Waypoint[01].Command=LAND_TOUCHDOWN Waypoint[01].Position=652000.0,565000.0,0.0 Waypoint[01].Size=50 Waypoint[01].Speed=60.0 [GroundMission001] GroundObjectType=CVA-63 Name=CVA-63 Kitty Hawk NavalObject=TRUE Carrier=TRUE FormationType=Single Size=1 RandomChance=100 Position=652000.0,565000.0 Heading=90.0 Speed=15.0 Alignment=FRIENDLY Nation=USN ShipNumber=63 Waypoint[01].Command=WAYPOINT Waypoint[01].Position=752000.0,565000.0,0.0 Waypoint[01].Size=500 Waypoint[01].Speed=15.0 -

dfang replied to dfang's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Mad Mike, You need the WINRAR archiver program,its a archiver program that processes RAR & ZIP files..most everyone involved with Strike Fighters uses it.. Here's the link,,it's free,,it will unzip the file you downloaded... After it's installed: If you want to change back to your current WINZIP or whatever you use to unzip compressed files,,,just go to ADD/REMOVE programs & remove WINRAR.. :) ******************************************************************** WINRAR -

Making Your Dumb Bombs Smart....er
dfang replied to dfang's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Talon, Sorry but the AN-12 is a cargo/transport aircraft and as such has no weapons capabilities modeled in WOV & SFP1 (as far as i know).. The only two cargo aircraft that are modeled in WOV & SFP1 are,AC-130 & the C-130B_PAF...at this point.. I would like to see a C-130 with the capability of pushing a "Daisy Cutter" out the back.... -
