SARCASM v 1.5
Rends replied to Stary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Blaze, Could you please describe exactly what you have done? I only get daylight in winter if i set the Latitude to around 30 in the germanyce ini -
I installed the modded Germany terrain from the download section here and i realy love it! There is one thing that i would like to have changed and that is the water color of the rivers and northsea. It looks to blue. Remember that in the 60-80s the waterquality was in a bad shape through industrial contamination. And i also also find that the Northsea should look somewhat morebluegrey too. I found this image on the Screenshot section ( i don't know the Terrain) http://s262.photobucket.com/user/malibu43/media/CombatAce/img00008_zpsc8ba8610.jpg.html I have no clue how the water works in this game and if it's only a single file that needs to be changed or if it's a difficult work but i would be glad if someone could create such water. Thx, Rends

More grey looking water color for the german theatre?
Rends replied to Rends's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Ok, found thread and to quote Stary "sadly, repaint water parts of ALL water tiles" it seem like a lot of work... -

Question about the ingame map
Rends posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Hi, Once in a mission if i hit the m key to watch the map i find it very uninfomative. Looks like i'm staring at a low res version of terrain tiles. Any chance to get a better map with more information. Would like to see town and airbase names and roads ect... At the moment it's more a guess where i am rather than realy knowing. -
Question about the ingame map
Rends replied to Rends's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Ok, that clears it all, no chance to get a different map if the inflight map his created by the terrain tiles.Not a big deal i can life that way. Thx for all your comments Btw: the old school compass stopwatch airspeed indicator thingy wouldn't work if you don't know the distances . -

So real pilots don't look at real maps during a flight? -

Hm, that's what i thought but hoped that there was a Workaround or fix for a better map like the one in the Editor. -
C-160D Transall
Rends replied to Florian's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
I'm not sure about the alt. I was low but not close to the ground. The Migs were at the same alt trying to fly slow as possible .from their view the the Transport were in line with the horizon . I thought they should have killed me with the missiles. -
Removing the top right overlay radar

Just another noob question. I just havn't found out yet how to remove the top right Radar. I'm playing at normal settings right now. Rends -
Removing the top right overlay radar
Rends replied to Rends's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Got it (not) working through the huddata editing. Thx all! -
I just read in the KB what needs to be done to use and addon aircraft as players plane in a campaign. But what about AI units. Lets say i install the Tornado in SF2E. If i choose now a single mission or start a campaign will the game engine make use of it without further file editing or do i need to make some tweaks? I know that ground objects like the installed AA Roland/Gepard will be used randomly by the game engine without further editing.

Will addon aircrafts appear as AI units in single missions/campaigns?
Rends replied to Rends's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Ok,thx I just saw some Transall in parked positions with open doors on my airfield. Whow that's realy cool! Need to find out the campaign tweaking... -
Why did the germans used orange paintings on aircrafts?
Rends replied to Rends's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Nice to hear Florian. Well if i remember right the days when i was a child the G.91 had a orange painted Nose and Transalls Rudder was painted Orange still in the 80s. I don't remember the orange on the engines maybe wingtips but i'm not sure. Looking forward to the Orion and the CH-53 :-) -

C-160D Transall
Rends replied to Florian's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Realy love this one, thx for creating it. One wiered thing i notice yesterday when flying the Transall. During the mission i was attacked by 2 Mig21s. They fired a couple of missiles from behind and everyone missed the plane. It seems that the missiles didn't detect the planes. Once released the missiles go down to earth in a very flat curve. It didn't look that they ever locked on the plane. I was later shot down by gunfire. -

Why did the germans used orange paintings on aircrafts?
Rends replied to Rends's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Oh, great, wonder why i overseen this but i had a look at different addon sections and there is so many stuff i guess i just have overseen this one. Thx for the link! Rends Btw: i just checked the F-4F the Starfighter the Fiat G.91 and the Transall and all don't have the orange color. Well i was pretty sure i saw the orange anywhere. Maybe it was just in the Screenshot thread or as static ground model...or maybe a different skin i used? Anyway i'm happy they don't appear in game by default. -

Addon skins replacing stock ones?
Rends posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
If i install an aircraft skin will it replace the stock one or is it for the players plane only? What i would like to have if i find a skin i like that it replace the stock one. It should be used as standart skin for the players plane and choosed by the game for AI planes too? -

Rends replied to Rends's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Ok Florian, will do that once i found out what aircraft use the. The Phantom seems fine need to check the Starfighter. Havn't installed the Tornado yet but saw orange on the Transall and Fiat G.91 Don't remember more Planes used by the Germans in the 70/80s that are in game right now. Would like to see the Orion,Bronco or some helicopter but i don't think they are available yet -

Florian, thx for the explanation. It makes sense. Oh it seems that i wasn't that clear about the german plane skins. I'm looking for those without the orange color. Danke nochmal, Rends
