Bad to the ...........
sparkomatic replied to HrntFixr's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion

New WOI Pics From TK
sparkomatic replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Hmm...not really pointless, just if planes take so long to get into the game and requires such a large percentage of the budget...then why not get free help with that in order to allow time to fix things that the modders can not get at...kind of like the ejection sequence and how the game records information. Far from pointless, we call it efficient. There are things that people can do for you, and things that only TK can do...like fix the anti-shipping missions. See, not saying here is the SDK, give me $29.99 rather hey you guys that like this game and can make planes, who wants to build plane x for free, just credit in the credits in order so that my limited budget can go to other areas that you can not do... -

what did you use before the x52? -
New WOI Pics From TK
sparkomatic replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
well said...I guess what I really meant was, how about instead we put static planes and air traffic and fix the medal system and maybe make some more targets besides a comm building and a fuel tank? Heck, maybe incorporate planes from the modders if that would free up resources. I know I have done pro bono stuff for game companies (way back in the MSFS 98 days) and if one modder was not willing to acquiesce then others probably would, just to get their name out there or be a part of a project. So it is not my show and if I really didnt like it I could move on, I know... -

One thing I do not understand, and maybe you can clue me in...why does TK seem to always do planes we already have? I mean right when the mod-community really hashed-out the Viet Nam era (with F-105 and A-7 to name just two) then poof Wings Over Viet Nam Now I see the Mysterie, and Kfir, and here comes Wings Over Israel... Is it marketing? Does 3Wire go "look, they made it themselves, therefore they must want it"? I mean that stands to reason, but what gives? Not complaining, just curious... -

Wait a minute... 531 Ghost Offline Forums Moderator Senior Member Registered: 09/17/02 Posts: 5288 Loc: MCAS Camp Pendleton At SimHQ...no wonder you were defensive...had no idea... -
Since you put it that way...but I still like being in control, if I wanted a machine to tell me how fast I could go, I would drive
-
good suggestion, but we changed out the mobo to see if that was it...they changed out the power button, PSU, just about everything we could imagine to test it...parts work fine separately, but not together Main thing is if I have to build another one, I want to know what can be salvaged...so I guess I would have to buy a new case and start adding parts until it stops working, then back up from there

AAA? wall of lead?
sparkomatic replied to jono's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yeah...go fly through the Okinawa map with AAA set to "high" and then let me know what happened... And I second the add-ons...if you toss that stuff in there according to the read me's the game will gladly make life miserable for you -
did you guys see The Host? Man, the trailers on a DVD I purchased looked too cool...probably means that it is

Uh...joining the USAF now? Man, PM me when you get a chance...hey USAFMTL you want to talk to this fellow also?
-
Point taken, it has also gone through some series AI movements like the 3Wire series...I enjoy ground attack though...if only we could get that level of detail into WOE...kind of like EAW had...wait a minute who's at the door?

Oh yeah...MSFS-X how could I forget that? Well, when I save up enough for a Cray Supercomputer maybe I can get the little elephants to show up randomly in Nigeria... One thing I hate about that series is the hardware, I mean what kind of systems do they have to run them on up in Seattle? It only plays into my "Computer Consumer Conspiracy Theory" (catchy, no?) in that all along they have like a Terabit processor and 82 gigglewatts of ram on a perfect-ray disc multi-layer burner...but they have deliberately dumbed down the tech in order to sell it piecemeal and with incredible profits... Kind of like light bulbs...oh they can make a light bulb that will last longer than you, but then how many would you purchase? Exactly, give the public something that is not quite noticeable and make more money.
