F-104 and Countermeasures
MigBuster replied to Tantobot's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well it must have cost related but I would have taken the F-4 if I had the choice like them. -
Need directions
MigBuster replied to serverandenforcer's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Do you change the advanced profile for your card - setting things like Antialiasing and anisotropic filtering? - you may want to experiment with setting those values to see if anything improves. -
Is there any way to enable icons?
MigBuster replied to tmdgm's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Your best bet is to use better smoke trail effects i would think. -
Silly me - I should have just gone to wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thundercracker I had the original set of these too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerialbots Maybe wish I hadn't sold them all now - they may be worth something!
-
Had to think about that one - the original F-15s were Starscream, ThunderCracker, and Skywarp in the UK

Nice one thanks - missed it when it was TV :(
-
Big part of my childhood - Have got the 1987 TF Movie on VHS still - great film that was - the new one looks great and seems to be aimed at an adult audience so probably wont miss it. I even remember when Starscream was just a humble F-15!

Happy Summer!

Replacement Pilots...
MigBuster replied to Lt. James Cater's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well it doesn't help that by default the AI hates going under 1000ft and prefers flying in a perfectly straight line when a SAM is launched - only thing you can do there is break so they follow you. I think they actually use ECM now anyway. If anyone knows the frequency of pilot replacement then let us know please. havn't seen any building at 500ft yet - dont even get that in Falcon these days ! -
Replacement Pilots...
MigBuster replied to Lt. James Cater's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Ive never seen any replacement pilots - not to say you dont get them - try baby sitting your wingies better (ie only let them attack AAA with bombs for example) the planes do get replaced i think as per these lines in the campaign dataini: Supply=100 NormalSupplyRate=50 OffensiveSupplyRate=-5 DefensiveSupplyRate=-5 SupplyForOffensive=0 AircraftReplacementTime=30 AircraftReplacement=60 GroundUnitReplacementTime=60 GroundUnitReplacement=100 RandomTransportType=ANY WeaponResupplyTime=15 StartAirDefenseLevel=0 -
Trackir question
MigBuster replied to Henkie327's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Not sure - you could raise it at Thirdwires forum - but it may be there to keep the forward view steady. Hadn't really noticed it that much till i started playing more F4 -
Yap's Kc-135
MigBuster replied to gumpy's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The manual install of the files is a bit tedious - but its really easy tbh - best to install 1 pack at a time to keep it simple. though its not just the new objects its the real life missions that make it great - and ive flown so many different types of missions - things you will never do in the standard WOV. The product is well supported and each new set brings in new things - this is from the latest set: -
Help me......
MigBuster replied to 101tfs's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Not sure on the 3DMAX question. You can download the titles from http://www.thirdwire.com/index.htm Otherwise try the China branch of Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/ - scroll to the bottom of this page and click on the "China" hyperlink -

Bombing alts
MigBuster replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Be impressed if you can get the AI to stop attacking bombers by flying slowly up behind them -
Small Bug in Deuces WOV terrain
MigBuster replied to Badfrank's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Actually that fix seems to have taken care of the blip near BIN THUY airfield (South Cambodia / Thailand i think) so good work there The only other thing is the two large airbases (Tan Son Nhut / Bien Hoa (south south Vietnam)) which apart from having trees coming from the runway - had a problem where the runway disappears when you land on it - almost like another tile was overlapping it. (is ok from up high though) - will get a pic well if were going to be picky -

EAWEuro Question
MigBuster replied to Tantobot's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
what this one? http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...mp;showfile=915 Would be caused by one of the files you dragged in with the Mod. Also Im not sure if those figures above are specified in feet? -

In Captain Dale Storrs Account (Warthog, William L Smallwood) he was passing through 10,000ft when his A-10 was hit by an IR SAM - guessed to be SA-16 (this was in the 1991 Gulf war btw) - never saw it coming!
