eightlein replied to Jug's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Jug, Pretty easy, for example if you so desire. SystemName[004]=LeftPositionLight SystemName[005]=LeftPositionLight2 [LeftPositionLight] SystemType=LIGHT Position=-4.194,0.04,-0.476 LightSrcOffset=-0.0,0.00,0.00 Color=1.0,0.0,0.0 Brightness=0.03 LightSrcRange=0.5 CanFlash=FALSE [LeftPositionLight2] <<<< SystemType=LIGHT Position=-4.194,0.04,-0.476 LightSrcOffset=-0.0,0.00,0.00 Color=1.0,0.0,0.0 Brightness=0.04 LightSrcRange=0.5 CanFlash=TRUE <<<<< IsLandingLight=TRUE <<<<< FlashTime=0.90 -
Helluva nice job DO.! WIPS coming soon in Yankee Air Pirate v2. Poor Richard in recovery config. Ranger in recovery config, Connie in launch config. Group shot in recovery config, Ranger, Tico, Oriskany, Oiler Misipillion, DD Obrien. Wave off on the Tico. Its still a bugger to trap at night. Does not matter if your meatballs are homemade or canned.

Shape of thirdwire 105
eightlein replied to krgf15's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Agree on most counts. AD, did I miss the fix for the fuel probe and tailhook on the F-105G? They operate at the same time and when closing, the hook stops and closes at a 90 degree angle to the fuselage on the right. Thats if your looking at the plane from the rear. Also, the canopy entries are present, but no workie. Thanks. -
Regarding the latest patch for WOV and Yankee Air Pirate. First back up. Then we are advising either to do a fresh install, patch and then add the YAP mods you wish, so you can decide which you want to keep and those you want to discard. Applying the patch directly to a current WOV/YAP install will wipe out most if not all of the YAP modifications.

Wrench can explain it in more detail, theres one formula but its a lot of work you must put into it. Statics and Cats. Helps if you have a program that will do the math for you, or its hit/miss trial and error. Your only limited by the amount of space the AC take up on deck and imagination. You can make as many versions of the ship as you like. Then you HAVE to make the mission(s) so they show up (they wont show randomly) and keep changing the aircraft if you wish to stay accurate, but thats part of the fun. Your talking about a lot of aircraft for example say in an Alpha Strike or Broken Arrow, full deck, empty deck, whats in the air etc. You may take hits with all those skins especially if you use non stock AC. Gut em. Have fun. Heres a small example with a few stock A-4's and F-8's.

YAP Purchase
eightlein replied to Calvert74's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Current plan is that YAP1 will be archived and available when YAP2 is up and running. About "2 weeks". The site is undergoing modifications. The interuption is only temporary. -
Finally got WoV
eightlein replied to Emp_Palpatine's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
For the moment lets forget about payware. "not fond of scripted missions"? Sorry , I dont understand that. YAP missions are real stories/missions told by the pilots/crew/etc that flew/witnessed them. So if that is scripted, then the single/campaign missions that come stock with WOV are the same. You lost me, far as WOV and your Q. Anything available for DL is scripted. -
Patches + YAP Question
eightlein replied to Salraine_Chi's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Kirbykern is correct. That is why we strongly suggest to have a seperate install of WOV/YAP, and a seperate clean install of any specific game for the patch process. Saves you time and grief. A lot of us learned the hard way. An installer will be considered once Zerocinco puts the padlock on YAP1. -
Helicopters
eightlein replied to grant977's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Thanks StormTrooper. Grant, we were just addressing that subject on another forum here: http://www.simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?...776#Post2490776 You can also go to the YAP site and click on the missions page to check out Helo missions. -
So there is no more "wondering" I'll just take it down. Stage photo or not, whatever AC it is, I stated where I got it, simply saved it to my bucket. Whatever.
