Don't you see all those juicy migs?
Emp_Palpatine replied to Emp_Palpatine's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Sure as hell does not work. You can circle through them with the cam-key F7, but not with the air-targets key. At least, in "hard" mode. -

IIRC, there were no Whirlwind in AoE, only two marks of Mosquitoes. -

Emp_Palpatine replied to macelena's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Mirage G3 and, above all, Mirage 4000 would be awesome. -

All right then, I'll give "normal" a try, as I'm feed up of being the only one active in my games. -
(WoI) Flying mysteres and vautour
Emp_Palpatine posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I don't much want to use the other topic, so I'm starting this one. I would like to fly my WoI campaigns with the mystere, super-myster and Vautour. I know a campaign, once, was released making all planes flyable in campaigns, as well as arab nations. It would indeed solve my needs, the question is: is it compatible with october patch? If not, how can I fly those planes? Thanks a lot! -

Emp_Palpatine replied to Emp_Palpatine's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
In the other topic, issues regarding cockpit and .ini were mentionned. Shall I be concerned, or can I install the mod regardless, without fear of fraking something in my install? -
Enemy Skill Level
Emp_Palpatine replied to Spinners's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I'm confused now. I always thought playing with AI in hard will only make sure the ennemy is the less dumb possible... But I would like to have better friendlies. Just don't now what to do anymore. How is ennemy AI performing in normal? -

ODS The Great Showdown problems
Emp_Palpatine replied to Jarhead1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
I fly low too. But I just can't pick my fight: Coalition aircrafts are everywhere! Run, you'll get a sparrow or a Sidewinder. Fight, you might get one or two and you'll be eventually downed. -

This one was really, really close. I saw it coming to me, I was sure I will go down... But my luck ran out a few seconds later. -
ODS The Great Showdown problems
Emp_Palpatine replied to Jarhead1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
Indeed... Oh, by the way, I sort of "survived" a mission! Actually, I was not blow up by the missile that hit me and was able to bail out. Only to get killed the next day. @Jarhead: thanks! -

ODS The Great Showdown problems
Emp_Palpatine replied to Jarhead1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
All right. It works now, except the fact that the Mig 21 MF unit is flying F-7. By the way, it's awefully hard! I can't even survive one mission... -
So, I'm not the only one addict that needs its daily Lolcats dose!

Desert Storm Mod Update For Jan 2009
Emp_Palpatine replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
The FAF Jaguar listed as ??? damaged might have been hit by small arms. In a book from FAF about Desert Storm I own, there is some pics of a Jaguar that had been hit by AK-something fire, especially in and around the cockpit. -

Yes sir! It's never said enough. Thanks to you all guys. Thanks for making those games so great and the community so alive. -
ODS The Great Showdown problems
Emp_Palpatine replied to Jarhead1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
All right... I love two side campaigns, so I wanted to give a try to DSTGS and see how long I will survive in a 21. I therefore downloaded it and after the installation: well... now I can select squadrons, but only two (a 23 one and a 25), but my planes don't have any loadout. What did I fraked up? Is there any fix to get a loadout and the other squadrons? -

Emp_Palpatine replied to Spinners's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Everything on hard, since the beginning. I guess that it explain my low survavibility in campaigns, as well as my careless-hot head-kamikaze usual way of flying combat mission. As Farragut said: "Damn the SAMs! Full speed ahead!" -
Operation Desert Storm, Part 1 of 3
Emp_Palpatine replied to JSF_Aggie's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
Frankly, guys! I was afraid of a one-sided thing, a campaign I would fly while cooking or reading a book. Hell, not! Sams are everywhere, Iraqi come out of nowhere, and I haven't last more than 4 missions yet. I'm not an hot shot, but I usually fare better. Honest! Being bvr-shooted by a Flogger in a Tomcat while, already, evading sams was a great moment: october patches indeed improved dramaticaly the game, and this mod is just perfect! -

A 25 got an F-18, but I concurr: kill ratio is definitely not in IrAF favor. They performed quite good against Iran (hence Saddam's self-confidence), especially in the middle and end of the war, after the disappointing first years. But tactics, planes and weapons were definitely on Coalition's side two years latter.
