No. As I already explained previously, @Nightshade/PR should check the in-game options. Each mod folder has its own Options.ini. It's very likely he's not using the dedicated GPU in SF2NA. There's an option in the options menu screen to select the proper GPU and graphics settings, including resolution and aspect ratio. I have nothing else to suggest.

All fine on my end with the latest 580.97 Nvidia drivers. Make sure in the game's options that you're using the Nvidia GPU. SF2 has a bad habit of selecting the integrated GPU instead, and I used to have such crashes with Intel's integrated GPU.

I recommend to keep expectations low. With these disassembled codes we can infer how things have been done, but in no way we can simply edit and recompile such codes so that they work in the game. We lack a lot of info for that, you can't infer that info from disassembled codes alone, a source code is always needed. At best it can be of help to someone who wishes to reverse engineer the whole game, but I don't see anyone around willing to spend two-three whole years for such an endeavor. It's certainly helpful to modders for understanding what the game does under the hood.

Open Source Strike Fighters - Global Combat Simulator (SF-GCS)
Menrva replied to buccaneer4499's topic in The Pub
Ideas are cool but feasibility is what counts, and here I see none. Unless we get a source code by TK, remaking a game with from scratch (or even by porting all SF2 assets into a new engine) and with all those ideas/features would require an expert team of developers working on it for several years. And to have it for free, after all such amount of work is also not a realistic choice, time is money. -
My sincere apologies for the wording of my post. We've already dealt with many users complaining about subscriptions or who had the wrong impression that downloads are a granted privilege after a few posts are done, and that made me wrongly compare this situation with those. I had suggested the same long ago. Sadly the owner of the website is nowhere to be seen, it's been a rather long time since he last appeared, and that is pretty worrying. I think only he has the function of posting and pinning stuff in more prominent places like the front page. You're right, I messed up. Lesson learned.

Downloads are only available to subscribers, those that buy site subscriptions. Sorry, but posting "several useful threads and replies" does not suffice, and it's pretty arrogant of you to consider those few posts as useful and that they should grant you anything. There are people here who contributed hundreds of mods over several years. Joining in and saying hi is of no real use to the website's hosting costs.

Make sure you have downloaded all parts fully (first three parts are 999MB, last part is 685MB) and that 7-Zip or WinRAR are updated to the latest version. Usually older versions of those software cannot unpack something that was packed with newer versions. EDIT: I downloaded all parts on my end and unpacked them with 7-Zip v24.09 with no issues. The problem is on your end:

I just approved it. Nice present for the community, Happy Easter to you as well! -
RAH-66 Comanche
Menrva replied to Dels's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I was hoping for one but cockpits are some of the most complex and/or time-consuming things to model, so totally understandable. The helo looks gorgeous, fantastic work! -
Keeping you in my thoughts, my friend. Health comes first, best of luck! It's so heartwarming to see members of the CombatACE community show their support, it's a nice family.

Strike Fighters 2 Screenshots Thread
Menrva replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Screen Shots
That's Farsi Island, Iranian territorial waters. I added it back in late 2023 following a request by fellow Crusader. It was quite a strategic place during the Tanker War of the 1980s between Iran and Iraq. The ODS 30AE mod also offers to fly over nice recreations of Failaka Island in Kuwait and of famous Kharg Island in Iran, both reproduced by fellow @tiopilotos. -
TBH I lost interest, because we'd need more accurate F-35 models and cockpits. Especially the cockpit, me and my friend have reworked the textures entirely, but I cannot improve upon its functionalities and overall look even after several .ini tricks to most of the cockpit's 3d model nodes. At the same time this is what we have, so it would be a pity to leave in the dust what we've done so far. If I get enough help in making such an "F-35 complete collection" package with accurate skins and decals for all countries, count me in! Absolutely not! If you and @daddyairplanes are already working on F-35s, I'd say let's join forces and make this thing happen. I'll be sending a PM.

As others have already noted, this is the first time Boeing has won a contract for a clean-sheet jet fighter design. I have quite a lot of skepticism, such a multi-billion contract for a company which has had some serious debacles in past years, from poor quality standards of commercial airliners and related hundreds of deaths, to the Starliner failure. Its military wing being mostly inherited from McDonnell Douglas, let's hope the F-47 will have reasons to be remembered for successes rather than failures.

Just FYI, I was working on a rework of all F-35 variants with a friend. I still have the WIP folder on my HDD. Similarly to the recently released Eurofighter add-on, it features new cockpit textures, new skins for other countries like Italy, reworked sounds, data and more accurate loadouts. The FMs need a lot of work though. I may be able to look at it again over the weekend, if there's any interest.
