SF2NA Runway lights and textures
MigBuster replied to MigBuster's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Only tested on the stock SF2NA airfields with Stary/Gerwins terrain - the 7 airfields are all new models compared to the ones in other SF/SF2 titles Looking at the mod - Baltikas uses the original airfields from SF1/WOE like all the other titles and should already have good runway textures (JSF Aggie ones ) - the lights for those airfields (and taxiways) were done years ago and should be in several mods if Baltika has not included them. You can use the newer runway textures in this mod on other airfields if you really desire - but it will require renaming and sorting out the files. -
How to get AI to use Add-on Planes in Campaigns
MigBuster replied to Number6's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
For campaigns the aircraft needs to be added to the campaigns .ini and data.ini files In SF2 there is a campaign customiser DLC to do this easily - for SF1 its a manual extraction and ini file change job Actually this largely applies if you cant find anything else http://combatace.com/topic/44798-adding-aircraft-to-campaigns-in-sf2/ -

Version v1.1
406 downloads
For Strike Fighters 2 North Atlantic 1. Adds lights to the main runways of all 7 airbases on Iceland. 2. Very High res textures that will change the runways/parking/taxi ways for all runways on Iceland Read the README for vital information - you may need to scale down some of the textures depending on your system - and I recommend you use them with the superior Stary/Gerwin Iceland terrain to double your FPS -
Quit option

The big problem with going to 2008 was the massive flight model change from what I remember. You can run 2006 games by removing certain shaders - there was a bit about it in the knowledgebase on here - I can run YAP on WIn 7 with 2006 -

Fantastic job ! -
That does look amazing - A good implementation of photo scenery can probably help most terrains

Exp3 News! (no, not really)
MigBuster replied to FastCargo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Its a bit of a pain apparently - a lot of changes are made with each OS update - and calls the program needs are sometime removed or changed which breaks the app - everyones in the same boat and its not always easy to fix. Mobile gaming is a lot easier to support the user side - but with updates you still have the same pitfalls including the bloat that gets added to ensure your phone is slower after every update - wonder where they got that idea from. :) -

Still awaiting the iOS version of Afterburner myself to try it - would make sense to include adverts for the PC games though -that would be great marketing for TW - the mobile market with PC functionality has come at the right time - billions of devices and new free business model -1.2 million downloads already says it all. A predictable post IMO: The mobile market is where the money is - so thats where all development will be going. Future PC games and probably new patches for SF2 will turn it more like the mobile games Modding will be removed/limited EXP3? - if it comes out might turn your sim into something you wont like (would have to see) I cant complain really - and no one else can - there is a lot missing and the new terrain needs fixing - but they have provided a lot over the years including many personal requests. I would say RIP to the PC version we currently know - and on the bright side at least you wont have to worry about mods being broken by patches. -
Iran-Iraq war
MigBuster replied to Centurion-1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
Few photos on here as well http://www.iranmilitaryforum.net/air-forces/iriaf-f-14/ The colour changes depending on photo quality and lighting normally so sometimes difficult to use photos for colouring. -

Meteor explodes over Russia, hundreds reported injured
MigBuster replied to Fubar512's topic in The Pub
Thats the reality - can we only detect objects over a certain size - or do we just pick up things through luck? For anyone dreaming of space exploration - someone needs to put up the money ! - previous funds like moon landings were devoted mainly due to the Cold War effort I imagine. Lets hope the affected recover okay - and that it missed the nuclear power plant -

Just had to do a System Restore on my PC! Argh!
MigBuster replied to quack74's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
Did you reformat it or are we talking a Windows only restore? - if it was only a windows restore might be worth looking for your old profile folder -
What's with the US and faulty avionics?
MigBuster replied to GalmOne's topic in Military and General Aviation
Ha cool video Another example from http://www.dote.osd.mil/pub/reports/FY2012/pdf/navy/2012fa18ef.pdf DOT&E reported on APG-79 radar IOT&E in FY07, assessing it as not operationally effective or suitable due to significant deficiencies in tactical performance, reliability, and BIT functionality. In the civilian world though no software gets sold in a finished state - no ones got the time or money to test it properly without going out of business - its far to complex for us humans. The Eurofighter is seemingly no where near getting the avionics its supposed to - still should be used to that - wasnt the Lightning F6 stuck with the same crappy 1960s pulse radar till 86? want to hazard a guess at when the F-35 will be in a working state :) -
Taking the piss out of all politicians and making them look like retards (not difficult) has been mainstream TV for about 30 years over here - Spitting Image, The New Statesman, Yes prime Minister to name a few - its called political satire generally.
