Yes TIR5 on Win10 here also. I would probably give up all flight sims forever if I couldn't use TIR. Wizard -

I wish I understood what you folks are talking about. Is there anything a non-modder like myself can do to get the skins to show up in game? Thanks, Wizard -
CT-133 Skin Pack (re-worked) + new
Wizard43 replied to 1977Frenchie's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
Yes, the wing tanks are fine. I just realized I need to add them on the load out page. But I think have copied the skin files to the correct location. I can choose Mako Shark or Red Knights in the mission setup screen but they still appear in the game as the snowbirds skin. Thanks, Wizard -

Thanks for your work on these skins. I'm excited to fly the new planes. I've never installed just new skins and I'm having trouble getting them to work. I already had the original CT-133 but I downloaded and installed it in my mod folder to be safe. Then I copied/pasted the contents of the V2.0 zip file into Objects\Aircraft\CT-133 over writing existing files. Did I do that right? When I try to fly a mission and change my airplane, I see Mako Shark and two Red Knights as options but when I choose them, in the game I see, I think the Snowbirds skin without wingtip tanks. Sorry if this has been asked before. I tried searching for information on just installing skins but couldn't find anything to help me out. Thanks, Wizard -
Glad you posted. Gave me a chuckle.

T-33 Mako Shark
Wizard43 posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Hi modders. I'm pretty new to SF2 and loving it. I'm like a kid in a toy store with all the mods and skins you guys have done. I've only grabbed a few new aircraft so far; just some trainers while I'm learning the game. When there is such a huge amount of content you've created, I don't want to seem like I'm asking for more. But... I just thought I'd put the bug in someone's ear in case they find this T-33 as gorgeous as I do. It's a T-33 that flies out of our local airport from an organization called Waterloo Warbirds https://waterloowarbirds.com/. The Mako Shark paint scheme was an actual paint scheme on a T-33 in the Canadian Forces squadron VU32 back in the 90's. They have some other equally beautiful aircraft too but the T-33 has a special place in my heart as I had the opportunity to fly in it. Anyway, if anyone was interested in doing a skin for this aircraft, I could contribute some of my pictures. Wizard -

I love the skins you've already done for RCAF T-33s. This would be a great addition! -
Where was Maverick between Topgun 1 and 2?

Apparently he was not flying rubber dog doo out of Hong Kong all these years but driving an E-2. -
The movie industry's cliche's are almost inevitable. But it does have good flying and a good story and for that I can overlook the love story. And the air sequences are realistic. I can't stand CGI flying scenes that are unrealistic. For example the current crop of Midway movies; Midway and Dauntless. Wizard

A bit off topic but I would agree with you. It was better than I expected it to be. Back on topic, another good movie is Dark Blue World. Wizard

I can attest that Days of Glory is a great movie. And of course Das Boot too. Wizard
