Phantom Phriday. (READ RULES IN FIRST POST)
yakarov79 posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Screen Shots
Since there is a Delta wing mirage topic...We can have a Phantom topic too - just because it is cooler than deltas... Rules: - Phantom on Fridays only. - so no Phantoms on other days than Friday. One picture per user and only on Fridays. Let's bring the best of aviation in one picture. Sorry for strict rules but Spook deserves it. - no discussions, asking, quoting, chatting, etc. there are other places to talk. - NO for what if skins, rogues, mercenaries, pirates, etc... - ok for phantoms that never were...produced, prototypes, etc... Eventually if one of the Administrators will visit this place please clean up inappropriate jabbering. Thanks in advance. If this topic is inappropriate please close.- 645 replies

how to get multiple radar screens working
yakarov79 replied to ravenclaw_007's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Try to make multiple "radar nodes" and move them via cockpit.ini <- back and forward -> using Type=RADAR_MODE_SELECTOR and then: where "value" is responsible for the radar screen mode...just do not remember sequence now....0 = off, 1 = A2A..7= TV....other I do not remember but I have somewhere notes example: NodeName=MFD_screen01 MovementType=POSITION_Y Set[01].Position=0.00 Set[01].Value=0 Set[02].Position=0.00 Set[02].Value=1 Set[03].Position=0.00 Set[03].Value=2 Set[04].Position=0.00 Set[04].Value=3 Set[05].Position=0.00 Set[05].Value=4 Set[06].Position=0.00 Set[06].Value=5 Set[07].Position=0.00 Set[07].Value=6 Set[08].Position=0.05 Set[08].Value=7 not sure if this will work but I was able to make "zoom" on map in similar way or change from TV to radar or some other MFD panels... I just think radar is restricted via engine to one mode texture -

Maybe this is not a good place to talk about it, but I feel it is necessary to point out some things and misconceptions about Fishbed. According to the discussion from the screenshot thread: Those are not gun blast protection plates, The Instruction, and technical manual clearly state what it is. During production of the 21 many changes were made on the production line - and then some of the changes were retrofitted to previously produced types. One of those changes was adding a small fence under the auxiliary air intake under the cockpit on both sides of the fuselage. Unfortunately "gun blast" myth started in the wets long ago by so-called experts - claiming that plates protect engine from gun blasts. They are FOD protection of the engine on take-off, landing, and taxing from anything from the nose gear. I think in the manual it is called Взлётная створка воздухозаборника - or something like that....FOD plates are installed between the 9th and 10th fuselage frame to protect against ingesting foreign objects into air channels. Auxiliary intakes themselves are operated by pressure differences outside and inside the air intake channels. Those covers in the intakes would never be open when a gun is firing. Auxiliary intake doors are there to relieve pressure difference and provide additional airflow to the engine on take-off and landing (low speed). On the inside lip of intakes, there is a seal that makes them completely tight, but only under pressure. Because doors are simply hinged, on the ground those intake doors would never be completely closed and there is a small around 1 cm gap. In-flight they close totally with the pressure inside the air duct forcing them to the outside surface of the fuselage. So during the flight - when you are firing a gun - the doors are completely closed. It is not usual to fire a 23mm gun on the ground with a running engine while you are on the airfield surrounded by ground crew, aircraft, and vehicles. So there is little chance of any gun gases coming into the intake and damaging the engine. And yes, those plates can be observed on two-seaters too - which has no gun, and at some point, plates were retrofitted to older models, that is why when there is confusion it is "better" to address them by "factory given name" designation. F - prod.72 F-13 - prod. 74 PF - prod. 76 FL - prod.77 - export version of PF PFM- product 94 (изделие 94) and type 94N for a nuclear strike capable model. R- prod.94R M- prod.96, MF- prod 96A , but there are also export variants that also had different designations like 96A00 etc... SPS system (blown flaps) was introduced when PF and PFM were in service already. I guess countries were adding local names to an existing fleet of 21 to avoid confusion. However SPS is not an official MIG-21 subtype. In Poland, we had PF and PFM but unofficially PFM was called SPS just because it was the first to have that system installed. And yes East Germany had a strange way of dealing with designations - here PFM has nothing to do with soviet PFM - as it was PF modified with RP-21 radar....East German PFM is izd.76A while "true" PFM is izd.94 (including early production of PFS. Then izd.94A in German service was SPS. -

why not make a normal gun pod with ModelNodeName=Gun_left/Right ? I think you are overthinking this... -
