China's new aircraft and no one here talks about it ?
MigBuster replied to Wraith27's topic in Military and General Aviation
Way off - Boyd advocated the use of both energy AND manoeuvrability - not just being agile - All of these platforms can do this - F-22/F-15/F-16/F-18/F-14B&D/MiG-29/Su-27 And all of those platforms would take the piss out of the underpowered compressor stalling nightmare that was the F-14A and totally inept MiG-25P/PD - both of which were Interceptors they are NOT even Fighters in my book. -
Whoa about WoE...

For WOV - which only goes to 2008 does it not - you want the old editor dated 20-2-2008. Works fine for me in Win 7 - and I dont need to set comp mode either. btw to get weapons back in the game you can delete weapondata.dat - it will use the stock set again. -
It wouldn't have just been the skies different - we would have been like cuba - a backwards island cut off from countries around us. Still look on the bright side - we might have joined NATO when Poland did - and thus got us some nice new F-16C Block 52s - result

Best SF2 Mod
MigBuster replied to GunnySonics's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
You dont need to reinstall anything - as a test make a copy of the games .exe file, then rename that copy to something like "test1.exe" for example. Double click on test1.exe to run the game. Exit the game and go to your mod folders - you will see a new folder called "test1" - this is your new install to add mods into. -

Fantastic - thanks so much Stary -
Patch December 2010-C is out!
MigBuster replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Well no figures to prove it myself - you could say the majority of TWs customers only ever play the original game - (over 50% judging by the way TK does things) From people posting its the era the games are set in (ie this game has F-105s!), the historical nature (Vietnam/Israel ) and the fact the games don't need to be studied for years to start playing them. -

Where are they installed (path?) Are you running any of them with admin rights or in compatibility mode? -
Crikey - no idea - not that ive ever stuck to one. Maybe I will go to the gym less - that sounds the sort of res I can live with!

SURPRISE! Part Deux!

ooo congrats! :good: -
Patch December 2010-C is out!
MigBuster replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I wish JT the best - its an ambitious project and will no doubt have teething problems of its own to overcome, let alone features missing that others would like in it. Be interesting to see how it is released and if the long term support is there. -

MigBuster replied to EricJ's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yes probably quicker to remove it from the radio commands box altogether. TK says the F-14 game has been in development for 2 years - so I really hope there are a few surprise changes in it. -

WOV Expansion Pack Gold
MigBuster replied to Siddley's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hi there. CAS in random single missions will only be a battle between 2 groups of tanks - that is any vehicle defined as a tank. The Game randomly takes any TANK in ground objects and uses it. So for example if you want CAS between 2 sets of infantry instead you would put them into the groundobjects folder defined as being of the type TANK. This of course means you could end up with tanks Vs infantry for example. To control what actually turns up requires a scripted single mission in WOV created by yourself - for example you could download a mission from here similar to what you need and alter it using Notepad. -

MigBuster replied to Wraith27's topic in Military and General Aviation
Why hang back - is Firefox reserved for the T-50 or something? Remember the good old days when NATO would give out names like Fishhead, Flipper, Fruitbat, Fangless, Fanny, etc Can I speculate that strike might be it primary mission - if that really is the size of the thing? -

Those Eurofighters turned out to be a great investment btw -
another Ho Lee Crap moment
MigBuster replied to ONETINSOLDIER's topic in Military and General Aviation
Shooting down would surely be a last resort - the implications of cannon shell or failed missile landing in a civilian area wouldn't look too good surely. Maybe they could have flown past him very quickly making the Cessna spin very quickly - you know like in cartoons -

MigBuster replied to elephant's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
You need the mesh name for the specific place - and even then it may not be possible - or might leak. Best contact the model maker, or see if there is a .out file in the shars folder. -

MigBuster replied to Wraith27's topic in Military and General Aviation
Yes have been looking at similar pics to the above on other forums over the past days - your ones seem higher res though. Is this the J-20 perhaps? -
Welcome to the site Gunny - hope you find it a valuable resource. My advice to newbies is to get used to the games first before adding complex mods in. The SF2 Knowledgebase is here http://combatace.com/forum/268-thirdwire-sf2-series-knowledge-base/ also here http://combatace.com/forum/272-thirdwire-strike-fighters-2-series/ In the general discussion section someone started a must have mods thread - but its really a matter of opinion - and some will be easier to get working than others.

Strange wingmen
MigBuster replied to Moofles's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yes it was something introduced in about 2008 - you sometimes have to forget about your wingmen - because they ain't coming back no matter how many times you order them! You cant really delete the Stock F-105_66 - if its not in your recycle bin just recreate the 3 folders (compare with the other stock aircraft)and extract the F-105D_66.ini file back into it.
