Ain't this that whaf-it SWOTL USAF bomber (don't remember number :blush2:) turned into RAF one? -
Hello, Yesterday Laton released various new effects -thank you! Some of them were straight from my "WW2 effects pack" from mid 2007. So I decided to redo some that were outdated and poor in my opinion, mostly bomb ground explosions: Inside you'll find new 4 bomb explosion effects, for all types of bombs (small, medium, large, verylarge), I've tried to make them more era-specific. Also included are new German flak: and slightly changed aircraft smoke effect (the last one based on Laton's version) Pick the ones you'll want to try and copy to your First Eagles/Effects folder, overwrite. Have fun!

Green Hell 2 mod and Brain32's hi res tileset for SFV2
Stary replied to corey's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Open your VietnamSea_data.ini, and add this: [HeightOffset] LowDetailMesh=-1.0 WaterMesh=0.8 Water problem should be cleared. As for Green Hell 2 -have you added together Brain32's tileset AND GH 2 ? edit: if the setting above doesn't work, try this values: [HeightOffset] LowDetailMesh=-1.0 WaterMesh=1.8 -
Now THIS looks spectacular!!! I like the look of textures a lot! been busy, haven't you Jan? They are 1024x1024, aren't they?

unable to upload screen shots in threads
Stary replied to quack74's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
Quack74, do you try to upload bmp (large) files? Or you convert them to jpg (smaller) format? Also there were some problems after the servers maintenance, preventing some attachments to be uploaded. -
AIR DEFENSE SYSTEMS CONTROLED BY HUMAN
Stary replied to Pap's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I was also thinking about such mod once. Something similar was made for CFS3 (ie. ETO expansion), you could drive around in a tank or even PT boat. But in CFS3 they have various gunner positions that can be manned. We can't. So the "gunnery" would be limited to taxing on ground and firing guided missiles. -

Thanks for info! Will check in Oct08 WOE then, but given these are ini files should work in SF2 series -

Green Hell2 mod issue
Stary replied to PinkPanther's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Here's a fix made by Column5, first page of the thread, post no. 12: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showt...t=0&start=0 Also please do a search next time, if you have a problem/bug most probably it's been already solved and answered. (sorry, it's second post about the exact same thing in two hours) -
Looks good Laton Btw, are you planning some ground-related effects like bomb explosions etc? I was planning to do some bombs-related effects for FE, don't want to duplicate your fine work. edit: ok,I see they're included

Green Hell 2 mod and Brain32's hi res tileset for SFV2
Stary replied to corey's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
It's no need to make new one as GH2 worked without problems in my SF2V install. Just make sure to add fix made by Column5: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=39923 it's in the middle of the first page. -

SF2:Europe
Stary replied to MigBuster's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Not in near future. TK stated several times that he has no plans regarding the new terrain/environment engine. I asked him about new terrain engine possibility, was a bit short on me in reply. Speaking for myself, I think we'd hit the limits of current terrain engine, custom 3D objects for tod files would be a great feature. On the opposite, other thing are models of airplanes -I think it's hard to find anything better on the market now. Also Mike if you want some eyecandy -try ENBseries dll combined with some other mods there's a lot of things you can add for better visuals. -
Problems with SF2...
Stary replied to Wrench's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
TK has an idea of writing small launcher tools for users to select the current custom install, or new menu in game to do so, don't remember exactly. -
It was a title from the "Conflict" series, the third one IIRC after two Conflict:Desert Storm games. It was ok if you ask me, but the best in series was Global Terror (or Global Storm) Back on topic -for me the best game dealing with Nam was Vietcong. I still like it alot. (note to self -find CDs and reinstall it back home) Line Of Sight:Vietnam and Elite Warriors were ok, given these were based on old Deadly Dozen engine. I liked the look of jungle in them, somehow nice. I did not liked the lack of FPS view in Elite Warriors. COD set in Vietnam? May be a good game. World At War proved they have good engine for juicy jungle action. I can imagine some "KABOOM" style Spooky level. I'll keep my fingers crossed for this one!

IT'S BACKUP YOUR STUFF DAY!
Stary replied to Stary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I was able to set up my new system today, Windows Se7en build 7100, testing SF2Vietnam on DX 10/11 All I gotta say is that UseAdvancedShaders=1 kicks a$$ with approx. 90-110 frames en route, 40-50 over the target, with everything on unlimited, as opposed to mere 25-30 on XP, and that was with turned off mirrors and horizont on medium.
