I Would Like to Bring To Your Attention
MigBuster replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Well ive had a quick look at the IPS boards but nothing obvious is springing out - if I wasnt doing this course I could spend some time on it. Its probably best speaking to Erik - or the main server admin? - can he clarify if we can stick in javascript somewhere (or if its even supported) - If not are there any other tools that come with the server software to control embedded video a bit better? I could have a look as admin - but I would just be hacking it at the mo. Do you get a javascript pop up window? -

Right so downloading it from here I can play it in Media Player and get everything: http://combatace.com/uploads/gallery/album_591/gallery_230_591_169322648.mp4 So thats actual Nam footage you took yourself from an F-100D? -
Am I getting any support in my Vietnam campaigns?
MigBuster replied to toonces's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yes upping the jamming level of the pod does increase the protection - but you dont really need this SF2V - because the SAMs are far less effective than they were in WOV - which is a good compromise really - as jamming support flights and Chaff bombers etc are not available by default. If you wait for packages - or other flights you can sometimes hide behind them :) Yes some of the jamming pods are supposed to interfere with your own systems - I did a basic write up here: http://combatace.com/topic/57249-ecm-jammers-in-sf2-for-sf2-kb/ The game is a bit to simplistic to create the many SAM operator tactics and modifications they went through to try and beat the many versions of jammer pods used (also not in the game by default). -
Carrier lights at night?
MigBuster replied to Adger's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
The stock Carrier has never had lights from day 1 - they need to be part of the model as I understand this. Options: Press Esc when you get near the carrier. There are a few add on carriers with lights - but none to directly replace the Essex class and Kitty Hawk class (That I know of) Bit embarrassing for 3rd wire really - they need to get this sorted in the upcoming F-14 game! -

They are cut off as you say - well they appear to be cut off - some of the writing is cut off - would get a screen shot - but it takes 10 mins to download everytime I try to look at it. No the zooming effect looks to me now how the page is embedded - we have no control it looks like on aspect ratio, zoom etc - so that probably needs to be done server side. Depending on the software Dave had he could probably convert the mp4 or rip the DVD to other formats. When the video does go up on Youtube - it should be fine because it will run in the browser in flash player (assuming it just converts it by default??) - which is pretty much the defacto video player for browsers. I was just downloading the file from here http://combatace.com/uploads/gallery/album_591/gallery_230_591_169322648.mp4 but its got a 20minute download time - so im off to bed. -

Yes it does looking again - never even noticed it Have updated QT also - no change. On the server side you used to be able to only control these plugins properly from the server side - embed Javascript into the the actual web page with the required parameters if possible - sizes, aspect etc - should be info on the web. Or - could try getting the file down in another format so it doesnt need to use Quicktime - because changing file associations, or disabling the plugin on the client side is not forcing either of my browsers to use the media player plug in - I could delve deeper but migth not be ideal for others tbh. Is it encoded in H264 - might be able to try silverlight if it has. -
Right so you load the game up and it runs okay - what happens exactly when you change theatres? Are you running the Falcon 4 exe as admin also (right click on the shortcut- >properties->compatibility tab -> Run this program as administrator)

Great video - must have spent some time on that. Works in IE9 with quicktime plugin 7.6.9(1690.9) - takes about 5 mins to download and play Quicktime plugin Crashes in Google Chrome though Afraid its probably down to browser, codecs and plugin versions on each PC! Most will run flash okay because thats almost universal these days (i.e youtube). Options: Up load as just a file. Use other free video site that allows it to use Flash at longer running times. Upload in a different format. Cut out some of it and upload to Youtube. -
Does anyone know why this is happening?
MigBuster replied to Mig_eater's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
No way to tell without trying - I would guess you would still have problems. If the SF2I terrain runs okay separately in SF2I then run it as a separate game. I do so you can have 4 different mod folders with mods specific to those games only - Bit easier to manage as well. If this issue happens with no mods in the game - then you can report it to TW - and they can go through the same troubleshooting we have done here pretty much. -
What version is the game currently? Where is it installed to on the PC? Are you on as administrator? Why doesnt it work?

MigBuster replied to Mig_eater's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
You should have put this at the top really and not let people assume you were using SF2I So are you saying that the GermanyCE stock terrain works okay on Unlimited settings? -
What store? The last AF patch was 1.013 and should be on Lead Pursuits site.

MigBuster replied to Mig_eater's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Was this Wings Over Europe? or SF2:Europe? If so is SF2E merged with SF2I or did you have them separate? If they were separate were they definitely at the same patch version? Do you still have SF2E - can you play it at the moment? -
A-10A Thirdwire help...
MigBuster replied to Wilches's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
WOE only has the original A-10A without the pave penny - SF2E has both models - the Pave Penny was added in 1978 For SF1 there is a 3rd party model: http://www.column5.us/aircraft.shtml -

2 Small Questions from a Newbie
MigBuster replied to hummersepp's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
1. Are you able to extract files - because HUDDATA.ini (in FlightData.cat) is the file you need to alter? 2. Will let other answer that if its just those 2. -
