Fighters vs. Bombers
MigBuster replied to JRA's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yes thats the ticket - never fly in a straight lines behind them - unless you are sure it wont fire because of damage or its out of ammo. Its a lot easier with trackir must admit. Its more difficult with bombers like the TU-16 where they are going faster and have more guns - though if you get close keep moving accross them or try attacking from above or below. Also the AIM-7 is miles better at high alts against TU-16s - where as the new AI in IL-28s not only turn they dive for the deck and are normally flying lower so give a much worse AIM-7 shot (on hard level). -

Values of the "[TextureSet001]" of the weapons?
MigBuster replied to AGOSTINO's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
They are just the settings for that weapons skin only You can change those values to your liking through trial and error but it shouldnt affect any planes - the planes skins have their own texture settings. Will add that you dont need to put the texture settings into a weapons.ini file - it will just use defaults if you dont ie [WeaponData] ObjectDataFile=AIM-4C_data.INI ObjectFullName=AIM-4C Falcon [LOD001] Filename=AIM-4D.lod Distance=500 [shadow] CastShadow=TRUE ShadowCastDist=4000 MaxVisibleDistance=100 -

MigBuster replied to i fight by 1's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion

I have a question too
MigBuster replied to JRA's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
AFAIK In real life the Have Drill eval concluded that the A-4, A-6 and A-7 should not engage the MiG-17 - and if faced with one: Jettison non A-A stores Unload, Dive and accelerate Utilize better roll rate run out at max airspeed and minimum altitude Below 450kts the MiG-17 was proven it could out turn any of them and most other things back then. In this sim you can beat the MiG-17F in a turning fight with any A-4 - but stick an experienced human in it (ie multiplayer) and the MiG-17F will give you your A on a plate - as i found out last year! -

Bunyap's Weps Pack
MigBuster replied to Commander_92's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Cant see any - the latest is Aug 2008 for WOI which will work if there are just weapons in the pack If you don't want to do it manually make sure you make a copy of the entire game folder as a back up before trying it out -
Bunyap's Weps Pack
MigBuster replied to Commander_92's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
No Unlikely - in fact that may be the one that replaces all the stock jets data inis with old ones!!. The best way you can use the weapons in put them in manually - that is install the weps pack to a new empty folder on your desktop. Then move the weapons (copy and paste) you want from the weapons folder in the new folder - into your games weapons folder one. then find the weapondata.ini and either copy the weapon entries you want - or use the weapons pack to merge it - then delete the ones you dont want. -
Help modding WoI
MigBuster replied to JRA's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
You may need to change the F-8 Nation to ISRAEL in its data ini Also in the woicampX.ini make sure you change the entry that corresponds exactly to the squdron you have changed [israelUnit001] UnitName=No. 101 First Fighter Squadron ForceID=1 UnitID=1 <----this is [AIRUNIT001] in the woicampX.data ini StartDate=06/05/1967 AircraftType=Shahak <change to F-8D/E etc DescFile=woi1Start.txt StartText=woi1Start.txt -

adding ground objects to SF2:Vietnam
MigBuster replied to markkyle66's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Oh - didnt think youd dumped the whole lot in Take it all out again and only put back in what you need - probably just some of the guns and the SA-7 The thing is a lot of the objects are set up to appear in custom single missions - so they work how they wanted to. In YAP the objects are placed manually All the objects you see on a terrain are also placed manually and are defined in a file somewhere Now objects defined as Tanks and Mobile_AAA will be chosen randomly in single missions like planes are - however - and heres an example if you look in the waterbuffalos data ini you will see its defined as a tank So on your next CAS mission you could get a load of water buffalo - well each to his own i suppose but you see the point im getting at - if you want objects to appear on the terrain or in custom single missions they need to be placed manually in the correct coords etc -
adding ground objects to SF2:Vietnam
MigBuster replied to markkyle66's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Any type of objects in particular? Make sure each object has ini and data ini files and is in service when you are playing. Also if they are sams or guns you would need to put the relevant SAM in weapons and add the gun it needs with the gun editor. -
