J-8II Finback Part II
SayethWhaaaa replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Okay, it bugs me when people ask this question because they're usually impatient or asking about information that's readily available, but I'm going to ask it anyways...(like when people ask "where's the F-22?" underneath the post that explains it! ) Ah, screw it, I won't ask it... Has a release date been set or is it still in dev? Only, I'm looking to buy this when it comes out, but I'm heading interstate soon. Just trying to get an idea. I'm guessing 2 weeks? -
Wish aircraft can carry more missiles?
SayethWhaaaa replied to jklv's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hey, don't be in so much of a hurry, we're just slow readers here. With the Flanker, if you used twin IR racks on the intake racks and the 4 underwing hardpoints, there's 8. Add the two wingtip IRs, there's 10. Then you could add, say, 2x large Russian IRs on the centerline hardpoints. There's 12... And you were going to slum it with some crappy mini-Rhino... -
F-14A in NATO Fighters 2
SayethWhaaaa replied to Pancho's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Just a question... have you added them to the campaign? There's a section there where you can set up what stores are available. Have you tried that? -
Man... I love this game! For me, going from this back to BF2 is like going back to trench warfare. I only have it on 360 at the moment until I can pimp out my system to be able to run it nicely. I'm dying to give co-op a blast. Has anyone given the co-op campaign a blast? For me, it's the crisp, clean shots, the choice in weapons, the crosscom system provides more accurate information in realtime than the BF2 model, the sound effects are just crazy on 6.1! Even the ambience is pretty sweet! I like that the grenade launcher deals some decent damage, not like the on in BF2 which is more like a crappy special effect from a bad ninja movie! My only complaint, the M21 sounds too low caliber when firing. Sounds like a 5.56 instead of a 7.62. But that's just rivet counting I suppose

Just an idea
SayethWhaaaa replied to atoll1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
In theory... you could drive ground vehicles, tanks, jeeps etc... it would need to be developed as no one's touched it yet, but in theory, it should work... -
J-8II Finback
SayethWhaaaa replied to Marcfighter's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I've never noticed that before, but the J-8 has a HUGE nose section for the crappy radar installed... I suppose that's where the mouse wheel is, and I guess they do take up a lot of space. Seriously though, I do love this plane and it would be a worthy addition to the SFP series for sure! You can get some snaps from here too: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/wor...na/j-8-pics.htm (ignore the FB-7 they've included, other than that, they're quite a good defence site) -
F-16XL Version 2.0
SayethWhaaaa replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
Holy crap! I knew of the Lavi (and all the fake J-10 images), I knew of the XL, but I never put them side by side and went "Jeeze... They look similar..." Man... I feel a bit dopier for that. By the way, wasn't it called the AFTI? This is what you're talking about, yeah? There was a great version of this in Ace Combat 3... -
F-16XL Version 2.0
SayethWhaaaa replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
It can carry up to 8xAim-120s and a pair of IRMs... that's not enough?? Good stuff Dave and crew! It climbs like a rocket and floats to eath like a leaf... This plane has to have the smoothest landing I've ever experienced! You may convert me to the Viper yet... -
OMG! AN-12!
SayethWhaaaa replied to Sgt.KAR98's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Sorry dude, that was part of the flying high joke. I do know for a fact that in my copy of WoE and SF gold, I had AN-12s modded but you do have to add a cockpit in the An12_data.ini and you have to copy a cockpit from another aircraft. If all else fails, there's an An-12 bomber around somewhere. I thought it was at column5 but I'm not sure. Hey TX3RN0BILL, Recon's a good way of having something close to a "free flight" mode, just make sure have the enemy aircraft tab set to low. I rarely get any aircraft when using that combination. I find it good for touch and gos, taxiing and whatnot. -
Wing Commander Arena released this week on Xbox Live
SayethWhaaaa replied to Revvin's topic in Game Console Corner
I love this series, but I can't tell... is this pre WCIII Heart of Tiger? One of those cruisers looks like the carrier you flew from in secret ops... -
YF-23 Black Widow skin --- Black
SayethWhaaaa replied to SayethWhaaaa's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
Cheers guys. I have two more versions to release, an off-white scheme and an "Air defence" grey. Having a few issues with them at the moment, plus they need to be cleaned up a little but they should be ready soon. Just having a bit of a problem with the wingroot, seems to always be dark... even in direct sunlight... -
OMG! AN-12!
SayethWhaaaa replied to Sgt.KAR98's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hehe, "Surely you can't be serious" "Yes, I am, and don't call me Shirley." Hey, so a question that's Transport and Air_Assault are mission types that obviously don't work in game, but I'm curious to know what the plan was for them. Was TK planning to have payloads in transports in this series? Was there a plan for paratroopers to be parachuted over targets in particular missions, etc? I'm interested in that having more mission types (non combat types like refueling) would add an interesting element to gameplay. I apologise for being late to the party on this one... -
Your Sweetheart's Name

Hehehe, you go with the Hornet, but you're thinking of the Tomcat... where's the film crew from CHEATERS? -

YF-23 Black Widow skin - Black
SayethWhaaaa posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
These are skins I'd modded for Mdlemast's excellent YF-23 to make it appear more akin to the black YF-23 prototype, a pseudo ferris style and a white skin. Big thanks to Mdlemast for producing the YF-23 pack in the first place! Something about the white one I just can't seem to get right just yet. -

Massive Penetrator in development
SayethWhaaaa replied to Typhoid's topic in Military and General Aviation
Oh what?? I thought this had something to do with the latest Ron Jeremy film... -
I've been keeping an eye on this... Cold War Crisis mod is a ZH total conversion that has been in development for a couple of years now. It runs on the theme of "The Cold War gone hot" and radically changes Zero Hour from the game we know to a unique combination of RTS and reality (interms of Units and weapon effects, single hit anti-tank kills, etc) I know it's mid way through the Beta testing now, but I'm keen to see what the end result will be like. Has anyone else come across this? What are your thoughts? EDIT: View the mod here: www.cold-war-crisis.de

Wings over Europe 6 : Fires of Liberation
SayethWhaaaa replied to kei nagase's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Anyone ever notice that in the Ace Combat word, there's a war every 5-7 years or so? And nothing small either! All involve mass mobilisation, WMDs, significant damage to land and ecconomies... It's almost like the olympics! It'd be a bastard of a place to live in... -
Yeah, that kinda bugged me too. Because they'd made and remade the US and USSR units several times over which was a shame because each time the displayed units looked pretty sweet! It sucks that Europe got the ass, the EU always seems to get it in games. Euroforces for Battlefield 2 was a bit of a joke in that it introduced the Eurofighter, the Tiger ARH (C?), some Europeans arms and so on, but more than half the equipment/vehicles you use were still American! I mean when was the you saw a British/French/German/Czech/Polish/Dutch infantry conoy roll into an AO with Blackhawk support British/French (et al) air support? Nevertheless, this mod is going to be gold (with or without Europe) I mean just have a butcher's at the comparison of the standard Zero Hour A-10s compared to the CWC A-10s! F-111 carpet bombing is pretty sweet and the Cobra gunships are just NASTY!
