That's what's referred to as a "pitch ladder".  Many of the models in the SF2 download section were released before the advanced avionics appeared in latter versions SF2 (and their attendant patch updates) became available.  

 

As for the "square" target indicator in the Su-27, perhaps because it's a circle in real life?

Locking Su-27 with my F-16I ;)

There is easy way to put for example F-15 pitch ladder in any plane who dosen't have the pitch ladder ?

the picture linked is pretty useless, as just WHAT item(s) in question are not being pointed out.

 

the "square bars" on the side of the HUD is a pitch ladder, for up and movements. Usually, across the top there is sometimes a heading scale (compass degrees). Sometimes that may only be a digital readout

 

being a modder has nothing to do with being able to read the instruments. KNOWING what the displays are (or should be) is the question.

your linked image clearly shows both the pitch ladder AND the heading scale on the HUD. The only thing I see missing (and if the image had been zoomed in closer to JUST show the HUD, we could see more -- and tell us WHICH aircraft--) is a gunsight

 

So, what exactly IS the question?

Sorry for being hard to understand, I don't know what the HUD displays are.

I am talking about that if you look at the picture you cant see the middle option IDK how its call. its the display that show you 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 55, 60 until 90. and all the way down -10, -20, -30. and also its affect when I lock a su-27 on my radar its dosent show a square.. also with ccip, you cant see it because there is not middle to the hud.

But when I fly with a SF2 basic plane like F-15A BAZ or F-16A NETZ there is no problem with the (10, 20, 30).

I hope you understand what I say.

what exactly are you trying to say??? Your statements make no sense 

 

ADI don't show degrees; they're for pitch.

Are you asking about a compass (ie: heading)

As I say I am not a modder so IDK what the problem, I mean the degrees on the hud, I even put a picture up there, its dosen't show it..

Hey guys sup ?

Just wonder because I am clearly not a modder why is that all plane I download from here when I move the files and fly it, it dosen't show the degres (pretty sure it's ADI ?).

Thanks guys for helping..

when I hear the RWR sound or missile launch, I launch chaff and flares (3x) and after second just break hard.

usually my mistake was that I fly by 10,000ft in enemy teritory. from now on I am fly at 300ft max until I get into my own nation borders.

Hey, I found myself a lot get confused with which missile come at me.. the radio command say "Missile launch", and when there isn't a blip I understand its IR so i deploye flares, after that in the log I see I have been shot by a AIM-120 AMRAAM.. Help about this one..

And btw, can someone give me a good tutorial how to avoid missiles ?

the short answer is no.

 

 

the TFD tool is worse than useless for that.

 

you should be using the TargetAreaEditor, but you'll still need to set things (the center 0/0 point) by hand

So simple - get into game and control f12 and go to gaza strip and start taking 20 or so offset?

there's a tutorial about that in the 1stGen Knowledge Base.

I suggest you read ALL the terrain tutorials in the KB. Your questions are answered therein.

Isn't there easy way to find a offset? 

I use the tfdtool which show everything, even position. I also see a offset there but I need to strech the mouse to get them, is that correct?

Correct. If you want to edit the stock IsraelME terrain, then you must edit the file israelme_targets.ini.

The easiest was is to open the file with Windows Notepad editor. Then press CTRL+H and replace ENEMY with NEUTRAL.

Then you has no enemy bases anymore and you can start to place new targets at the location of the map you want.

The only thing is that you must be carefull to use the correct sequence number of the target areas. For instance, if the last stock target area has the number 232 then your new target areas must start with 233 and so on.

Thank you, how should I know which position and offset to place?

If you want to mod a terrain, then you will find all neccessary know how in the Knowledgebase of the First Generation sims.

http://combatace.com/forum/191-modding-terrainsenviroments/

There are tutorials where i descriped what to do and how to do it.

 

In you case you can simply take an existing Israel terrain set all existing enemy bases to NEUTRAL and add some new targets in the Gaza Strip. This is to to difficult.

 

You other question, how to add new reagions to an existing terrain. It is simply said impossible to do that. If you would like to have a terrain which includes all terrain from Israel to Iran, then you must create a completly new terrain from scratch.

Hey, should I edit the "israelme_targets" and add gaza strip with enemy aligment?

Hello, I want to make myself some action in this game.

By action I mean I want to make some modern campaign.

Air to ground only Israel vs Gaza (which I can't make because Gaza isn't have a targets, how I make a border in Israel and add a targets to gaza?)
Second, ​​can I add another terrain to Israel ? take Iran map and mixed it with Syria and Israel..

Thanks.​

Sometimes unplugging it and then plugging it back in will fix it, I had issues with the Logitech Extreme 3D pro, as it would do that, and you have to be on level flat ground to do it, or it screws it up.

I try to unplug and plug servel times but no succsed, same the stick goes to the left. 

Kodiak : I use Xpadder.

Hey :)

My stick flying dosen't work well, IDK if its the stick or the way of the stick. 

My problem is : http://prntscr.com/7w4uob(I dont touch the stick)

my stick automatically move to the left, and in the game if the stick is in the middle (which is right now without touching) the plane move left. so I need take the stick to the right to balance.

another problem is that becuase my stick move left too much, there no room to the right.. http://prntscr.com/7w4vq2is the most right I can take.

also when I move my stick down (to pitch up) : 

http://prntscr.com/7w4w9i

the most down I can take my stick.

is this the stick or the way of the stick (to make it hard to the pilot or something LOL)

thanks :)

Hello, I found in my room my old F-15E Hawk Tactical Control Stick and want to play with it.

Its work fine after I bought a USB game port adapter, but in game only the bottoms work. when I move the analog stick to the sides or up and down its dosent control the plane.

thanks.

Pilot name shows when he's reached 5+ kills ace stats. But indeed I also wonder if there's a way to revert to callsign especially for player wingmen if anyone knows. Because if it sez "Col. John Doe" there's no way to know if he's no.2, 3 or 4, unless you press F6 and start counting.

So why I cant see my name? My name is still rambler 11 or lion 11 ..

I play of course for fun, so I have lots of kill, for sure 5+ kills ace stats. 

Hello, I notice that in campaigns in SF2I when I tap "m" and enter the map I see units like "rambler 12..13..14" and sometimes I see a full name of the pilot because he is a col. or something big. 

And so am I, there a way I can put myself in the map that I see my pilot name like others pilot ?

Hey :), 

I have weird problem in sf2, when I hit (100%) on the tanks nothing happen, just a hole in the ground. I am playing with a custom campaign (Golan Stalemate).

Any one have an idea ? thanks.

Hey guys, I wondered how can I identify enemy and how I find enemy on radar when the combat area is full of planes ?

Every time I get a yellow diamond I know that some plane get lock by me, but most of the planes are friendly, there something I should know ?

thanks.

Thanks Everyone, I think I'll go with hard setting. :)

Is the "hard" option is most close to real life or normal mode ?

thanks.

There is a guide how to make campaign ?

I know how to change planes and stuff (like weapons) in campaigns, but I want to build one with only air to ground fight. 
I play all israel campaign, and want to create something like israel vs gaza - which only air to ground from israel, but I dont know how to edit example the "Front line" in campaign.ini..

thanks.

because at 50nm, you 45nm out of range

Isnt to 50nm in the radar show the range of search ?

So if I stand 5nm from the target I should move my radar to 5nm to launch?

I fly with F-15 and loaded 2 12-GBU laser-guided bomb's.
First time I saw tank, so press Shift-E for nearest target, I see red and a yellow diamond, 2 orange lights turn on and I shoot, hit!

Second time I pick radar to ground, 50nm, then select air to ground and the gbu, have a yellow and red on target, but no lights, and cant shoot.. why ? 

thanks.

At Sea Level

750 Kts IAS = ~750Kts TAS (M1.13)

 

At 35,000 ft

750 Kts IAS = ~1067Kts TAS (M1.85)

 

With no stores or pylons?

 

In level flight (not the best way) a clean F-104A with GE-3 engine takes 4+ minutes to go from M0.9 to M2.0 at 35,000 ft as an example.

So I need to reach with my F-16I sufa to 35,000 and then wait fot it to reach 1000+ knots ?

MB beat me to the KIAS vs KTAS, but another question is: what altitude are you flying at?  Even an aircraft capable of beating Mach 2 cannot do so at Sea Level, 5,000 feet, 10,000 feet, 20,000 feet; many times even 25,000 feet if it is carrying external stores.  For example, the F-14B, an aircraft with an approximate maximum speed of 2.4M (placard 2.34M or 1.88 if you're worried about ramp failure) with 4x AIM-7 and 4x AIM-9 at 25,000 feet will achieve about 1.98M; about .4M below the aircraft's maximum.  An F-16A with 2x AIM-9 will do a bit better than 1.8M at the same altitude, again, below maximum listed speeds.  At sea level, the F-14B maxes at around 1.2M - nowhere near the aircraft's maximum speed at high altitude.

 

What this boils down to is: Thrust to Drag.  You may have very powerful engines, but your aircraft also has to contend with thick air at lower altitudes, and moving that huge mass through the air generates a good deal of drag.  More stores = more drag, and lower maximum speed overall, but lower altitude and thicker air REALLY put a damper on maximum speed.  As such, most aircraft won't be able to hit their advertised limit until somewhere above 30,000 feet.

I am playing with a F-16I sufa. when hit to 35,000 feet I am at 325knots, that weird..
