About the inoperable radar this is how look. And until you don't choose a weapons,even the gunsight isn't showed. Worried that I can't use smart weapons,I tried a Single Mission ,a strike with GBU-15 in the 1982 and the radar work normally...so what can be the problem?

Any help guys?

In single mission the -IIN and -IIB have the skin but not the -IIA. Also in the YKW campaign with the F-4,last night I finished a mission and in the debriefing screen I was informed that my Squadron was upgraded to the F-4 (73) version.Nothig of special,already see thousand time,I exit from the game and turn off the PC. Today when continuing the campaign,and also in the single mission,the F-4s radar don't work! look as turned on,but I can't switchfunction range,ecc,don't scan and even impossible to shut down....

I've installed the eburger68's Extension Pack in a 5 full merged game;I can play with the Vautour without problem,the only issue is the skin that is completely black. The skin is the one edited by wilco if remember correctly.

Hi all , I've joined the site yesterday and wow!,a new world born for me! I confess that I've circled the site for very long time before joining you.And this primary because I'm a very idiot,really, with the digital world! One of the reasons is that,as a model builder I'm fixed with the details,and as good 3rdW can be,now after some years of play them,isn't enough for me. After see how much talent live here,and the final results,I finally take some guts and create my account. I'm principally focused to the 'Nam era,IAF/Arab wars and the most recent conflicts as ODS/OIF/OEF. But having never installed a mod or skin,I need to made a try. So following some tutorials on Youtube,I created a new Mod folder,downloaded the MigBuster and F-16 generic-gray paks plus the AV-8BDA ( thanks all guys for your work!),followed religiously the read me instruction and ta-daaaan! all work as a charme! So,heartened by the success,I downloaded the Redux ODS three-packs and installed as instructed. I try a run but,despite the menu show new campaigns I never have,nothing DS;the last campaign available to me is Peace for Galilee as in SF2I. What happened? Maybe I need all tha planes present in the campaign like F-15C/E,EF/F-111s,F-18s,ecc... as add-on planes? If yes,whic files I need to dw and ,eventually in what order? This is very important to me,asI want upgrade/update all the other 3W titles to more recent conflicts. I've a full merged folder of the 3W games from SF2 to SF2I,exp packs and various DLCs. And about graphic details,how to improve the weapons aspect? For example,as all of you surely will know,the Aim-7 fins,since the -7F,was left in steel ;the 3W ones are all white like the -7D/Es. Sorry for the long post and my bad English,but this is one of the reason to join community like our,at least for me! Thanks all in advance, Gianni

Skins still don't show,none of the three...

Not a simple question, but indicatively around the 1957/58 'til the 1968 the planes (Ouragan,Vautor,SMB2,)used the Blue/Brown camo. In the 1968,with the arrival of the A-4s,IAF start adopt the Sand/Brown/Green livery that survived with the A-4 and F-4 until withdrawal from service of the types. But even so,can be some little difference on the shade of some camo's colors.For example the green in the Ahit fresh from the McDonnell factory was different from the one of Israeli manufacture. If you need somethings of more specific ask without problem. In the Suez War ( indicatively the timeframe you set up),the piston engined birds used the two tones camo and the fast jet was left in natural metal. Not completely sure about the Mosquito,I need check my books. Gianni

In SF2I ,the Vautour don't show the correct colors,but are entirely black;I tried also with the downloaded skin pack but nothing...any help? Gianni

Good day all guys, after some days play the different Campaign and new Aircraft all I can say is Wooow! and I want add THANK ALL YOU MODDER for the amount of work you put to improve thr 2W experience! Still some minor issue but all problem of my PC;also .someone create a mod to carry 2 or 3 Lau-10 Zuni pod on MERs,this load was extensively used in Vietnam on Marines F-4. Again thanks all! Gianni

The Tornado issue is a misunderstanding ,in fact the fuel tanks/ECM pod are present per default,so I'the firs box in the load out will be ignored! P.S. I'm searching for a Aussie F-18 skin;I searched on my mobile and I find one but not searching on the PC,why? Gianni Ok,just found!

DATA renamed and look like if work! Thanks my lord!

Ok; but having fully functional A-6A/E in SF2NA,is possible use the latter ini ( A-6A.ini or A-6A Data.in )? And bout the British Tornado? Thanks, Gianni

Hi guys, after experiment with various campaign/single missions,I deduced that the few problem I'd riscontred are for a PC performance ( RAM,ecc...),so I started to mind seriously a new computer. In the meantime I'll prectice at best I can with my sims. Anyway,Im so happy with the add-0ns I downlaoded! And I start think how much fub I'll obtain with a better suited PC! But I find two small oddity: - In ODS single mission with a RAF Tornado,I can't load a correct weapons load;the best I can is a pair of Hindemburg external tanks,two 'Winders and the offensive punch on the belly pylons,so neither BOZ-107 and/or Sky Shadow ECM pod on the outer pylon.Conversely the AMI Tornado is 100% correct -Again single mission,this time in SF2V with Expansion Pack when flying the Intruder this is how look The fuel tanks can't be jettisoned and the weapons are suspended directely from them. But this don't happened in SF2NA ... Any fix??? Gianni

Hi guys, agin me with some question. Today I learn how made flyable the F-104 ( I'm the only italian that don't love the Zipper but I can't left it as an AI plane) and dw various Add-on/skins,comprised the F-104 Starfighter Super Mega Pack v35. Great job as always but I noted that I can't load the wingtip tanks,is there a solution? And I remember that is possible replace the default skin of the various campaign with more accurate ones. For example for SF2V I want replace the VF-114 markings of Linebacker with some that I've dwded. Also,3W supplie the F-4B for that era Aardvark squadron instead of the J variant;again any mod?And a correct skin for that timeframe' VF-161?

I forgot to mention it,but I've SF2V,to honest and if my mind don't lose something,2V was the first of the "new" title from 3W I bought! And about First Eagle,1WW don't attract me ,I hope to no offende anyones!

That's true! I'm currently trying these: -SF2E with the eburger 68 ODSExpPak -SF2I with the eburger 68 ExpPak -SF2NA with eburger 68 ExpPak1 I started a pair of canpaign in ODS and 'till now all ok. In SF2I I started a YKW campign and all fine,played a sin gle mission with a F-16C Barak and one with a Nesher In NA I started a campaign with the Super Etendard,one with A-7E in the 1982 ,one with the F-18 in 1986 and a pair of single mission again with the Hornet. And there I'd some issue:withe the Nesher and the Hornet,after completed the missions anh hit the Esc key to finish the monitor became blue with some kind of error message and the PC restarted in DOS as if suddenly stopped. Now,my PC isn't the lastest one,and I'd some slowdown also with the 3W un-modded game ( especially NA ) but never similar to this. I need to conrinue testing the games ( and probably buy a new computer...). I will post any news. Thanks to stop by.

Ok,but is best have a new .exe clean copy to avoid any possible conflict? I think to create ( in affect I already done) a new .exe for every of the principle games I want expand,so a new SF2I,SF2E,SF2ODS,SF2NA. Who do you think? P.S. I noted that if create a shortcuts of the copied .exe on the desktop,the games don't start,so I've to run the games from the program folder. Not headaches alright but a bit tedious

Good day guys, last night I redo a .exe copy of SF2E and reinstalled the ODSExpPack, and all run fine!!!!! Started a couple of campaign with planes that aren't 3W stock planes or in my add-on dw and all ok! Thank you so much for your work! Now,which Exp campaign I need for continuing the conflicts of SF2E in the mid-late '80s? Gianni
