weird, and frustrating
sparkomatic posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
so now my WOE install went corrupt...it crashes at the 80% mission load screen...only changes were I installed the Israel 2 terrain, then deleted it...but it crashed before I deleted it. dont think it has anything to do with the terrain as other people use it with no problems any ideas? -

just found a computer virus...somehow win32pinfi made it through...think it happened after I put a new HDD in and before I made it around to re-installing Norton...dumb/dumb/dumb have been trying to fix this for 3+ hours... -
actually...thats not a bad idea...a Ford with a Honda engine...

Israel 2 terrain
sparkomatic posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
so I installed the Israel 2 terrain and switched the files per the read me...but it CTD during mission load...does it require desert.cat? -
snap! that is a nice set up

and in Cheetah print...

I had a USB/MP3 player and really liked it...it was like a lead weight...impossible to break and it went with me on 2 Marathons, plus all of the training leading to them, plus a deployment to the desert. Bought an iPod while in the desert to bring back to my wife...it didnt survive one day (overheated...but it was 128 that day, plus I was sitting with full armor on in the back of a C-130, so the temp was way more than that) That touchy-feely-wheel on the iPod is not durable enough for me, but it works great for her. By the way, i am NOT calling you a girl...

russ, should have known you to be a fan... oh yeah, take a 4-ship of Eagles out with "Aces High" way too loud for the neighbors in the background -
What flight sim has the best modeling of ECM?
sparkomatic replied to TheChief2000's topic in Military and General Aviation
err...there are more than 5-types of IFF...but you know that already...and dont forget that proper employment of M1/2 would be secret, though the system is not -

never flown an F-16...does it have the bitchin' betty? -
Bullet hit sounds & wounded sounds
sparkomatic replied to planecrazydale's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
you may consider taking some sound files like from iL-2 and replacing them into your SFP1/WOE directory...you would have to change the file names and maybe a few other tweaks, but it should be do-able -
I saw a photo (maybe photo-shopped) of a "speed enforced by aircraft" and it was an Apache hunkered behind some trees

Useless wingmen...
sparkomatic replied to ndicki's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
modifying them to call out the position would be very useful, good idea... -
just a note...in this game its OK, but historically speaking an F-4 in a vertical fight was a one-legged kangaroo...a bad idea (or so my first boss in the USAF said...just some Viet Nam F-4 jockey)

F-104 flight model

F-7M's Cockpit
sparkomatic replied to Erwin_Hans's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
is someone building it for that InSky plane coming soon? -
We had a BONE do a high speed low level pass at a Tyndall air show...best in show IMNSHO...especially how it felt like the silly thing was trying to rip the breath right out of our collective lungs. But I will never forget a Columbus air show when right after the T-clones, a C-5 made a "dirty" low approach...you know how people are always leaving early after the main event? That C-5 darkened the sky and people actually stopped and gaped...and some even ducked! Of course it was not THAT low, but a C-5 directly over bucket places a new perspective on things.

Some news about Chinese birds.

Just took the Finback for a spin...very sweet! -
dont forget that in the "real world" the Boom Operator is there to talk you through it (yes, it is regularly done in EMCON x but that is after proficiency) its still difficult, but the monitor and the artificialities of this game make it extremely tough

man, that really counter balances the entire 16 x F-16 to Pakistan debate, eh? See, we will gladly sell arms to you guys as well! And dont forget our new for 2011 F-35! -
MV-22 Osprey proficiency?
sparkomatic replied to Zurawski's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I like it, big fan of this back in the FS2k2 world...am setting up a CVG in WOE today mostly so I can practice with the -22 on that. Thanks for the hard work, and looking forward to that cockpit update -

Achmed takes to the air!

I agree, that would make sweet nose art -
create a mission target frequency
sparkomatic posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
So, after noticing that I get the "fuel tank" or "runway" target 80% of the time...how do you modify the target files in WOE in order to have a little more variety
