Need decision making help
MigBuster replied to commander's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
With WOV SP4 you can get YAP2 - which is no doubt the Most realistic and comprehensive Mod for..... well any sim - and now looks to have a really great Terrain and tree set - but then you do have to pay for it -
hmmm - have heard of Sharks with Laser Beams on their heads - but Laser Cats - thats just silly
-
Great stuff! You probably want to put them up in the downloads section here so people can find them

Nice one - thanks Never really been into the naval side of things but recently read this Didnt know anything about them really - other than they both got sunk - but it does have a good historical account of the battle and the chase after the Bismarck to stop it getting to France. Also details the expedition to find both wrecks 1 of the 3 survivors from HMS Hood was still alive at the time of writing and went along to find the Hoods remains.

Jeez - well I cant really be seen to be giving you A-A tactics advice I dont know what all the fuss was over tbh - maybe excitement over the patches got to people - but its all calm again today

Are there any Electro-Optical or other type of warning sytems to counter heat seeking missiles?
MigBuster replied to SkyStrike's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Fantastic stuff - I will look further into this..... pity the A-10s never had anything like this in 91 -

Cheers MM I have read a lot that he has written and this may be a good source. Some of his articles - like the one F-35 Vs Flanker scenarios are based on speculation and a political agenga he has - and really should be ignored though. -

The Israelis extended all their cannon muzzles - and if that pod did fire would render the bottom camera useless. It must be an Isreali Mod: http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=h...;hl=en&sa=X -

Actually if you have any info on why the system was not used on other jets - or why it failed would be good to know. Even in OIF 2003 accounts the F-14 pilots all seem to be using their eyes to look for SAMs. -

That looks like the RF-4E which was one recce version of the Phantom so they should be cameras. -

Sorry wasnt sure what you were getting at with the comment on there being loads of info on the net - when I had posted a similar thing about 5 posts up. -

Excellent - do you have any more info on this - such as the year it was tested or your source for this info? -

Well if you find any instructions from TK on how to implement one in this series for Jets in service after 2007 then please let us know. If there is a way to simulate it then it hasnt been done yet - not too bothered myself because I rarely go past 1982 - and Im not holding my breath that TK would put something in that is 20 or so years out of the series scope. -
The Official Sept/Oct Patch Thread
MigBuster replied to Murphy'S's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Im not sure yet but you may have to have a stronger signal to select a target - try moving the nose up or down. Also is this after you have locked up another target on there and pressed 'delete'? Also not sure that if they are lower then you it may also not be easy to select them due to ground clutter - guess what im saying is that this may be part of the game now. If that doesnt work then you could try cycling the radar modes back to search - if you can select it then there could be an issue. -
How I fight in the Mirage?
MigBuster replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The Mirage is a dog in WOI at turning so you have to keep your speed up - and move a lot because I can almost guarantee while im after a Mig-17 - another 1 is on my six getting ready to fire :) The Isrealis had to use a technique called stitching against "inferior" fighters that could easily out turn them - keeping a high energy state and going up in the vertical then slashing down in a dive - unfortunately this is difficult to do unless you have a trackIR. And hitting them with cannon is still not that easy either! Try not to slow down and turn! Have noticed the new AI pilots are good at keeping energy in Mig-21/23s also. -

No weapon loadout with WoE patch
MigBuster replied to jayo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Be interested to hear how well NF works with all the changes Did you use the latest weapons editor for WOI to recompile the weapondata.ini? -

The Official Sept/Oct Patch Thread
MigBuster replied to Murphy'S's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Looks like good old TK has upped the stock skins from 256x256 to 512x512 minimum in WOE and reworked some - like the B-57 and MiG skins. You flying with any shadows on? -
Looks cool - have you considered converting them for Open Falcon and Red Viper also? - (I suppose Red Viper (Free Falcon 4/5) is the eye candy version).

NEW UPDATE FOR WOE IS OUT BUT BEWARE!
MigBuster replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
A lot of the FMs may need revising - no new info on this thread - look at the Wings Over Israel thread because much of it has been said already. -

Yes I would say keep them separate if you can anyway -
WOI/WOE/WOV Merged Install
MigBuster replied to avi8tor's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The objectdata.cat in WOI only had the WOI specific files in it last time I looked - will check again after its been patched.
