I really love this mod but I have one problem. In cockpit view i get some stuttering when there is some action going on ( tank battle, etc ) I'am using vsync with triple buffering in radeon pro. Normally I can play this game with a steady 60 fps (exept in linebacker in the Hanoi erea) The poly count of the F-5 cockpit is almost twice as hig as the mirage F1 cockpit. This is what I tried so far: I resized all the images in the cockpit folder to 512*512 with photoshop. Still stuttering All graphics setting to low and setting the resolution lower. Still got stuttering. Lowering horizon distance, changed aa settings. Nothing seems to work. The Gpu is working at 60% and the graphics card ram is not fully used. My system is using a intel i5 running at 3.8 Ghz and 8 gigs of ram graphics card is a radeon hd 7800 2 gigs ram Could this be a CPU issue ? @ centurion, is a lower poly cockpit possible ? ( maybe a stupid question, I have no 3dmax experiance )

I'm glad I could help.

Are you using one shortcut to start SF europe, SF Israel, SF vietnam etc, or are you using multiple shortcuts ?

Are you using different profiles in your craphics card software ? ( radeon pro etc)

Bossco82, you Don't need to go all the way back to a 2010 dll. Just try the May 2013 patch dll first. Rename the Original GraphicsEngineDX10.dll (so you always can revert to the original dll) This is my C:\Program Files (x86)\ThirdWire\Strike Fighters\Core folder Good luck !

I had a similar problem with the last patch, game crashed 1 out of 4 times when opening the loadout screen. Caused bij the graphics dll. Then replaced the dll with one from a earlier patch version. And no more problems after that. I use a radeon hd 7800

Awesome !

Thank you for posting this story. Next time I have a "murphy's law" Day, I will think of Cliff Judkins

Awesome ! Thank you for this great mod, the cockpit is unbelievable.

I got CTD 1 out of 4 times I opend the loadout screen. I then replaced the dll file that caused this with an older one. And I have no more CTD's . So keep a backup of your original install, you might need a Dll file.

@ russouk2004 and Soulfreak, What is the name of the terrain in your screenshots ? (Russouk2004 Picture with the royal navy aircraft) They look really nice. poor man'sDCS MIG-21 BIS FS2004,..?

Good news. I hope the lovenox doesn't have to many side effects.

Nice little attack aircraft. Shame on me I didn't download it sooner.

Thank you Ludo and Mirage F.1 Team for another great Mirage F1 !

Hi Wrench, You mean like the picture below. It is from this thread http://combatace.com/topic/63496-j-35-draken-sfp1-cockpit-wip/ They made a work arround by using '' "opaque/see through frames" as a compromise." I opend up a SF1 A-4 pit lod with notepad, and found a bunch of Node's But not one of them made the front struts disappear.

I the mean time there are lots of other nice planes to fly. Coupi and Wrench thanks for the explanations.

Hello Coupi, how did you discover the nodename "frame_front" ? I would like to apply your trick to create a cockpit for the F-5 from a A-4E or F-100D Pit. But the nodenames are unknown to me.

Done.

wrench thank you for the explanation. Yes I believe it's westholt, the one with the tall smoke stack. Would the lod file from WOE work ? Al my SF2 installers are from 2012 and up. So al the lod's are locked. And I still have a boxed copy of WOE.
