It also assumes that such an "outside force" would find Earth as it is today. Again assuming they did not interfere with anything here and they just came.. and A, they are benevolent/ at least neutral and just watching B, Outright hostile (came to enslave, consume .. etc etc the humanity.) I think whatever such entity or force may exist, superior and advanced.. it may have very well existed 100 thousand or even a million year ago. I don't think a first contact was in the 20th century. And, Their intentions can be much more complex than just and utter Hollywood invasion force, or grinning Zoo watchers.. They could be farmers... seeding, weeding - then ultimately harvesting. They can be land owners, directly/indirectly managing the planet interfering when something they don't like They can be more, even gods, not just managing but completely controlling the system like we do with a strategy game, via their "human" pawns and puppets. Just like how it is being done in small scale in every human country between the power holders and the masses. They can be scientists... making something, observing... then clean up the failed mess and starting a new one in a new pot. OR, simply, they are the same of us. What would WE do with a stone-age alien civilization on a newly discovered world? Discover them, observe them, befriend them... teach them...experiment on them, take their lands away, good alien is the dead alien. We need another Earth, say the stockholders. How dare they throw stones... alien terrorists.

Adding the Campaign Customizer DLC to July 2012 SF2?
Snailman replied to WallysWorld's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I have never encountered any addon that did not work on July 2012... and all DLCs are also working. Sure it need a little work, but can be done. The addons I am doing have been done under 2012 and noone has complained that they aren't working. So I guess it is not a serious concern. As for external CM launchers, I also think they are not working in July2013, but I will test it for you just to be sure. In case they aren't working, it's just more work for us, modders. -
Moving canopys/parts whidout animations
Snailman replied to Tommy2Fast's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
If the plane has no animation done for the cockpit mesh, then no luck. The stock planes which have such animations were done in with the intention to let them park with open canopies. (which is stupidity but spectacular). This is done with ParkingAnimation variable. This is a static state used when the selected plane is generated by the terrain as "parked aircraft". Cunning modders exploited this by mapping controls to this pre existing animation for player manual control. The canopy mesh, otherwise has only one special function, to be jettisoned when ejecting. -
Adding the Campaign Customizer DLC to July 2012 SF2?
Snailman replied to WallysWorld's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
It is possible to set up DLC to earlier versions, IF otherwise there is no compatibility issue besides version numbering... I did set up DLC 28 and 29 (AI planes) under July2012. I think the same can be done with DLC011 as well. If I remember you only need the DLC file (Which is a CAT, you can look into it). You don't need to extract it, anyway you can't extract LODs, and the customiser is a fake LOD (not to be stolen). So ust copy this file into the DLC inside your GAME (NOT ADDON) folder and start the game. You can also add the line into Options.ini DLCdata011=TRUE.. But I think the game will do it automatically if you run it with the DLC file in the correct place. Look, this is my main game Version.ini -
From home, it is exactly 120Mb no more no less. That's what I paid for, so no panic here.
-
I tried from workplace... got 47Mb on a 100Mb net, but it is a company network, I think it is halved as reserve. Now the site is off ... I think it has been banned or shut down already. I'll try from home if it comes back..

That's what I would like to know... same for SF Modern Warfare ...

Can we get the AI to fire multiple missiles at one target?
Snailman replied to dtmdragon's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Try it... maybe it works. There can be rocket pod firing "AAM"s, IR guided micro-missiles... so why not. -
Best investment of two hour from your life into watching a documentary. It's about all of us, actually. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNNG_mn_9DU

This is not a movie but a documentary. You never invested two hours of your life into the best place...

Yes, even movies are part of politics-making manipulation, can be very well of instruments of demonization, heroization and pointing fingers at the projected enemy...

Afghanistan war movies... Hollywood style... Based upon real events (That means 20% reality... LOL) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgKEd3HRd3M Retro style, 4 part series in one 3 hour movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szISsy_CF_I Cold war Soviet Navy movies, with actual live firing and original warships and planes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HwNokvwYXM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-BbaejLFKc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjbVQ3z1RWQ These are very famous, but Youtube has only fragments. Perhaps you can find them somewhere.. "Cлучай в квадрате 36-80" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Yip0rhN53k "Одиночное плавание" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xkl1UecOnBk

There's a lot of good cold war movies, with actual soviet war machines... the problem is language, for obvious reasons these movies have never been dubbed or even subtitled. Even more sadly, very few western cold war movies and the majority of them are not really watchable.... Vietnam air war movie... only Flight of the Intruder. Sub movie, Red October and K-13. Perhaps The Hunters about Korean Air war... or the Brotherhood (?) about both sides of the Korean land war. NOt much anything else. I mean Im talking about actual war movies, not spy or political thrillers.

Attaining Mach 1 at Military Power

That's super-cruising.. Not sure about which plane can do that in real life, usually stealthy ones, and maybe 4+ gen -
Speculars in weapons?
Snailman replied to FLOGGER23's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Seems that bump doesn't work either. We fear, the only way to set specular highlights and shine having textureset.ini but weapons do not react to "skin" folder they lose their textures this way. -
See, that's what it feels when they try to disembowel and forge our history. It's more spectacular because they are doing it to the USA this time. Reason? Reason for deheroisation (or heroisation on the opposite) is always a rape of history - goal is purely political like always. Incite the people against each other, project pictures of fake enemies (domestic or foreign alike). Distraction, deflection, disorder. Till the pawns kill each other, the king rules. Slavery? It is still present. But the chains have been changed to unrepayable loans, puppet governments and brainwash media and Polcorrectness inquisition. This is the 21th Century slavery. Speaking of the Black, they expropriate slavery claiming exclusive rights on suffering like extremist jews used to privatize the horrors of WW2 as their exclusive "copyright". My own nation have been also subject of "classic" slavery for 150years and passive slavery (subjugating occupation) for another 400 years including deliberate ethnic cleansing massacres. Nah, Political Correctness rules say, the white christian cannot be a victim and bashing the white (or a minor nation) is not racism or discrimination.

The more I read about "North and South" the more I feel that the North was the "dark side"... Always, since I learned about these things in school we were told black and white things. Evil and Good I mean. Cliches.. . winners history. Nothing in history is black and white - or blue and gray in this case)
