MigBuster

Thanks for the info on the mod program - might give it a look - am trying to write something for myself at the mo. I havnt installed the July 2010 patch yet - still on June 2010 - although suspect thats not the issue See PM regarding the RO Directories.

hahaha - I don't particularly remember Hengist - otherwise I probably wouldnt have bothered replying. Suspect he just wants attention - note the use of "why I stopped posting here" as if anyone gives a flying fig that he doesnt post anymore.

Fabulous A-10C shots

Wow - nice job

It only looks different because of the poor quality film - looking at the lighting effects its SF2 with a few effects (explosions) installed, stock terrain, stock F-4/pit and using easy avionics again.

What a retarded POS

Yep I have FE2 on Win 7 64, intel i7, Ati 5700 The Mods work as in SF2 on here - so its strange that somethings are not appearing. Did you move the mods manually in? - 1. Cut the folder called MOD out and stick it on your desktop - there is a good chance that could be causing problems - can the JSME be set to save the mods elsewhere? 2. Check they are not in subfolders - like this \Objects\Aircraft\SE5a\SE5a that wont work 3. What patch are you running? 4. Here is what I would try in case the options.ini file has been porked - cut the whole FirstEagles 2 folder C:\Users\Ralph\Saved Games\ThirdWire\FirstEagles2 and paste it onto your desktop. So you are left with no \Saved Games\ThirdWire\FirstEagles2 folder. Run the game - it will create a new FirstEagles2 folder - exit the game and move back 1 mod (ie the terrains)only from the FirstEagles folder you saved on the desktop - then test it . 5. Why do you need the JSME - what does it do exactly?

What a great Vid - yes you can see the F-8s almost get it in the chin

Nice comparison - So on that logic... Mirage 3 = Windows 95 Mirage 5 = Windows 98 Mirage F1 = Windows Millenium

Do you mean everything has a labels on it or something? What level are you playing on in the options? - try setting the HUD to normal or something higher.

Double checked on the map and Russia pretty much borders NK on the Eastern side - so if he was going to russia taking the long route over China seems a strange way to go.

Pretty sure nearly all US jets to Israel have been financed that way since the mid 60s

The stock Mystere IVA and F-16A have gun counters - so it probably is possible - thats probably the place to start.

Point someone to the answer and they come back with that - sorry do you need some help reading number 30? or perhaps 31 - both changes brought in with later SF2 patches.

It might be CanopyGlass.tga

A few things you could try: Disable the Aero interface first if you have Win 7 - switch to a basic theme In the ATi control Centre set AA and AF to use the application settings if not already. In the games options set shadows low but try and raise the other settings apart from terrain distance. in the mod folder in saved games open up options.ini in notepad and change this: [GraphicsOptions] UseAdvancedShaders=1 <<<-------set to 1 this should force the game to use DX10 so should be faster if it wasn't using it already. If you are using any add ons like a new terrain that will slow you down so you will need to set your balance. That mobile graphics card is listed as a mid low level entry card - and the graphics card really does make a massive difference - with a high level card you might be able to max things out. As an example I use a PC (i7, 6GB RAM, ATi 5770) so a more powerful system and superior card - and I haven't been able to set everything full with mods in place. If the series gets more tuned for multicore system in the future performance may actually improve - never know.

Some of these might be applicable: http://combatace.com/topic/44026-converting-older-planes-to-work-in-sf2-a-basic-guide-by-migbuster/

Depends - a lot had changed by Oct2008 - so if anythings not right it needs to be changed in the campaign - so its easier to run the correct version. The way this should be done is having multiple installs - I still have a few 2006 versions of WOV.

First Eagles had a unjam command - not sure if that's actually in SF1 though - might be worth looking. If not shorten your guns even more - any try changing gun groups if your jet allows also.

Very nice

Afraid it doesnt work like that - you should be working at the file level - only put in files you have modded ini/bmp/jpg etc. If you have just copied folders in and overwritten actual Game files (dll/cat) with old ones its finished - you need to reinstall. Suggest you save the folders with the mods in it somewhere. Once reinstalled carefully move back in modded files only - 1 at a time if possible and test regularly because you may still get problems doing this - basically - in the new version of the game the ini files will have been changed by 3rdWire from previous versions - sometimes you need to extract the new ini file and make changes to that to get it working properly.

I use sounds and speech wavs from series 1 so any SF1 sounds should work if they are put in the right folder.

Ace pics - thanks for putting them up

You probably cant - but you could ask him if he could convert a pit over for the SF series - he might be willing.
