Dual SAHMs?
SayethWhaaaa replied to Southernap's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I was trying to add dual Amraams to the Mirage III and came across the same thing. Still work fine though. 10 Sidewinders, good stuff!! -
Looking for aircraft,
SayethWhaaaa replied to Madmalamute's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Spot on. I tried the same with the Mig-25. Added co-ords for gun placement, where the shells ejected etc, didn't work because it wasn't listed as a component of the aircraft. It's kind of similar for chaff and flares. You can add them, but you need to add them as a component too. If I can find my link for it, I'll post it here. -
^^ Ouch, harsh! Who exactly is getting punished here? Her, or the USAF...?

Wow... wish it was cold here! Gonna be +40 C tomorrow!! Damned heat! :threaten:

The mig 21 "lancer"
SayethWhaaaa replied to stalkervision's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yeah, I never got why the Sovs used to clutter up their cockpits like that! But then again, it was a common practice to have cluttered cockpits in the 50s and 60s. -
F-22
SayethWhaaaa replied to bingo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Yeah, I never said it was at the top, you gotta scroll down below the folders. The folders are shown first, then all the aircraft not relevent to those folders (that is to say anything that's not an A-10, F-15, F-16, F-18, F-22, Mig-29 or F-22) is shown individually below the folders. It's the sixth one below the F-14D. You can't miss it. Have a browse through there because there's a tonne of aircraft in that folder you might like In any event here's the link directly to the F-23: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...p;showfile=3403 -

Yeah there is, in downloads just go into Modern Era Aircraft folder and scroll down. It's below the Kfirs and above the Viggen. -
The mig 21 "lancer"
SayethWhaaaa replied to stalkervision's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I've been hearing on the defence grapevine that Elbit was keen to add integration software into the LanceR C's to allow them to fire Amraam/Amraamski but it was rejected on the grounds of cost and capability. Even when Romania had their Mig-29s in service, Amraamski wasn't used (despite having the potential to upgrade the 29's radar for its use) and when the decision to updrade and maintain the 21s was made, using the R-77 didn't fit into the new operational profiles planned. Romania did use ealier generation R-27s however, and they were considered suficient. The cost to upgrade to the requisite radars, plus buying a stock of new missiles as well as training for their propper use, not to mention storage and maintenance was considered too costly for an already cashstrapped AF. I dunno, from what I've been hearing, they seem to be doing nicely without them... -
chaff and flare
SayethWhaaaa replied to bingo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
On average, most aircraft I've added into the game have 25+ chaff/flares which can be frustrating, especially since the J-7s I have in game give the impression that they have leading edge CM (countermeasure (oops, almost missed the "o" out )) technology I used to find that before I started modding my aircraft that the AMRAAMs/AMRAAMski were pretty much a silver bullet at medium ranges but now, it takes me at least two at medium distances or a well timed shot near close range. The A.I. seems to release 3-4 cms in close succession when I fire active or semi-actives, IR sticks seem to be around 5 per shot. I think if you want to make the missiles less susceptable to cms, make sure their noise rejection rating in the weapons editor is closer to 100% (although, I have a modded R-73 that I think has 99 or maybe 100 for that rating and it still gets spoofed!) OR drop the cms in the aircraft to 10 of each or something. I don't think there's a way to change the spoof rating on the cms. How much of an effect does ECM have in-game? I've cranked the jammer rating on certain EW aircraft like the Prowler and it doesn't seem to make a difference, or none that I've seen anyhow... -
F-22
SayethWhaaaa replied to bingo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
You can't, at least not yet anyways. It's still in development... -
Yeah, I was getting the same message while trying to access this page from work. What? I was bored...

Mig-29 Forest Green Skins View File These are a couple of Forest green skins I made for the Mig-29 whilst working on another mod. One is darker than the other but otherwise identical. They were derived from Wpnssgt's kickass Grey False Canopy skin from his Mig-29G. This is the lighter skin. Submitter SayWhatt Submitted 01/07/2007 Category Fictional/What If Skins

Just curious about something but having now had my grubbies on a copy of WoE for a short while, I decided that I wanna see what all the Mig-27 fuss was about so I modded it to fly, flew in in WoE. Blew up a bunch of stuff, tanks, buildings, my own airbase, etc; basically has some good clean family fun with it. But I've noticed it can't be ported to the other games in the series. Is this due to a lack of .LOD's in the Mig's folder?? Is there anyway to rectify this? I mean, I know I could prolly just port everthing I've got in SFG and WoV into WoE (or do a merged install) but I'm curious nonetheless...

I heard there are quite a few in the BA who'll quit their jobs, go on a summer tour here to watch the English and then go home looking for work. That's gotta bit you in the arse though.No Ashes, no job... Still, England is much more exciting to watch than the Windies. I thought they were on the road to recovery a few years ago but apparantly not. I miss the days of the 80's WIndies powerhouse! (admittedly, I was prolly about 8 at the time )

Possible cockpits for F-22 and F/A-37 use
SayethWhaaaa replied to Skelator56's topic in General Flight Sim Discussion
Hahaha, she's a ginger! jk But seriously, where'd you grab these shots from? The detail is impressive! -
chaff and flare
SayethWhaaaa replied to bingo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I find about 40 does the trick, but when I'm shot at, I release them in bursts of 8-10, sort of like the how Su-25 does... ...even then, I still get hit sometimes -
No! It's for the only sport in the world where having a gut is a pre-requisite for playing the sport, CRIGGIT!!! Hey CSB, don't forget Matty Hayden's doing a runner too... We might have to bring back Boonie for some solid willow action if we can't find anyone else Because it simply will not do having England leading the world at their own game

su-25
SayethWhaaaa replied to grumpapotamus's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
There was one in dev a while ago with a Su-24 but I think they got put on the back burner as I haven't seen anything on them for a few months. I'll try to find the thread for you. -
What should I get?
SayethWhaaaa replied to agrippa's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
