  1. How do I install it and what Strike fighter2 do I use as a template?

  2. Falklands Mod HMS Ark Royal ‘what if’ campaign

    1Patriot-of-many reviewed dtmdragon's file in User Made Campaigns

    I've gone through several installs and reinstalls. Crashes everytime when I hit the button to start a campaign with either of the two jets. >Needs work< NOT. >I've followed the install instructions to the letter< NOT. The regular 2.0 falklands works fine. EDIT: Apparently I didn't follow the instructions to a T. Okay the mod maker contacted me and it turns out I went off halfcocked. Mod works great if you follow the instructions properly. Thanks for the mod!!

  4. Strike Fighters 2 - RED EDITION (ExpPack Mod)

    1Patriot-of-many commented on Inostrancevia's file in User Made Campaigns

    Easy fix. Just delete the default controls file in C/users/ your computer/saved games/thirdwire/Strikefighter2 RED EDITION/ Then cut and paste your controls file in it's place from one of your other mods or plain jane installaion you have them all setup in already. You'll have your joystick all set up. Only problem I've really found is the menu's don't show up at the flash screen with the plane and sun. Roll across the left side and they show up.

  5. Strike Fighters 2 - RED EDITION (ExpPack Mod)

    1Patriot-of-many commented on Inostrancevia's file in User Made Campaigns

    CUT Okay never mind the previous comments, I should read the instructions carefully, they could be a little clearer. One thing that's weird, on the splash screen with the plane and the sun, I didn't see the menus on the left side till I accidentally scrolled over them with the mouse. Joystick doesn't show up of course but that should be an easy fix I hope. Replaced the controller folder with another one can fly and use guns but my missiles won't fire. I don't understand the radar ect, but I haven't played in a while. Nice to see a russian mod where the plane doesn't get hit immediately after takeoff...That really is annoying in Desert Storm mod when you try to play the iraqi side.. Okay the missiles do fire. Everything is working. The instructions are all over the place but if you pay close attention with all the other things besides the read me. Could be better explained for newbies. Thanks to the modders, I appreciate the work. If I could figure out how to rate it again, I'd give it a 4 instead of the 3 I think I gave it.
  6. [Version] BuildDate=Jul 2013 StrikeFighters2=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Vietnam=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Europe=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Israel=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Exp1=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Exp2=TRUE StrikeFighters2 NorthAtlantic=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Exp3=FALSE Anyone know what the expansion pack 3 is and where to get it? It's not on the third wire site. Was it something they were planning on and didn't do?

  7. Operation Desert Storm: 30th Anniversary Edition

    1Patriot-of-many reviewed Menrva's file in User Made Campaigns

    It looks amazing! Only thing they should add in the instructions is if you are having the 80% CTD check your C:\Users\"your computer name" \Saved Games\ThirdWire\OperationDesertStorm\ version for missing strikefighters2=TRUE as well as Israel and North Atlantic It's like a new game, fantastic! Thank you for the development.

  8. Operation Desert Storm: 30th Anniversary Edition

    1Patriot-of-many commented on Menrva's file in User Made Campaigns

    If you are experiencing the 80% crash check your C:\Users\"your computer name" \Saved Games\ThirdWire\OperationDesertStorm\ version for missing strikefighters2=TRUE as well as Israel and North Atlantic, if any of one of them is missing you haven't installed it, you might have moved it from another computer like the dummy I was.
  9. Thanks very much for the help guys and Erik for the detailed post, that must have taken a while! I had already gotten it installed and running, see my last post before yours Erik. Thanks again guys.It runs and looks beautiful.
  10. UPDATE: THAT WAS IT. I must have just copied Strike Fighter 2 from an old computer! It installed, I'm running everything at high except shadows and it looks amazing! Tried two campaigns, persian gulf with an ardvark, and kuwait with a skyhawk. I don't know how I got it to install in the first place with the missing key. If anyone else is experiencing the 80% crash check your C:\Users\"your computer name" \Saved Games\ThirdWire\OperationDesertStorm\ version for missing strikefighters2=TRUE as well as Israel and North Atlantic
  11. Yeah I read that all and I tried all the lowest settings since about 3pm. But I think I might have found the problem. Even though I paid for all the strike fighter series, I may have just copied strike fighters2 from another of my computers on my lan. So I uninstalled ODS again. I found this in the ODS user folder [Version] BuildDate=Jul 2013 StrikeFighters2=FALSE StrikeFighters2 Vietnam=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Europe=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Israel=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Exp1=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Exp2=TRUE StrikeFighters2 NorthAtlantic=TRUE StrikeFighters2 Exp3=FALSE [OnlineNews] LastUpdateVersion=Jul 2013 LastDLCCount=29 [DLC] DLCData011=TRUE DLCData012=TRUE DLCData015=TRUE DLCData017=TRUE DLCData028=TRUE DLCData029=TRUE So rebought the whole series again becuase I can't find the email to re download it! Will be installing it shortly then I'll try reinstalling ODS. I could use some help though, there's four ISO's, how do they interact with each other? I don't quite understand, do I unzip all of them one at a time into the same place and overright each other?
  12. I've tried in 16 same thing. Missions works, campaigns it's either locks up at 80% or crashes to desktop 99 times out of a 100. I can't even find a readme in the download files. I've tried changing settings for 3-4 hours now. I'm about to toss in the towel. I've never had so much problems with 95% of the mods here..
  13. It won't install. I have all the Strike fighters2 legit. I installed them on my raid1 (e drive) because my C: drive is only 1TB. Do I have to move everything to my C: because all the strike fighter mods probably wont fit! Please advise, I had an older version of your mod installed and suddenly it started CTD, probably because of win 10 updates. EDIT: Finally got it to install by moving the installation files to my C: drive but crashes or locks up at 80% with my settings on high. I have a HP Z620 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2670 0 @ 2.60GHz 2.60 GHz (2 processors) 96.0 GB Ram Nvidia GTX1070 Edition Windows 10 Pro Version 22H2 Installed on ‎6/‎25/‎2023 OS build 19045.4529 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19058.1000.0 This game used to work on the previous version you guys put out, but then all of a sudden it locked up or CTD at 80% so I uninstalled the previous version and get the same issue now. BTW why are there 4 downloads to do on this mod? I didn't do anything with the other 3. Hope to hear from you, cause I loved this mod when it worked.

    Too good not to share on FB :)

  15. Political Discussions

    1Patriot-of-many replied to Erik's topic in The Pub

    I would like to ruffle some leftist feathers please.
  16. It's called old man confusion. LMFAO, I don't see how I missed that. NEVERMIND as in the old SNL skits....... In my own lame defense, the principle is the same, read what's in the download.
  17. Click on the Operation Desert Storm: 30th Anniversary Edition part. It will have a list of the changes.
  18. How do i make American and other allied planes less effective. Even on easy setting, any Russian plane I take off with is eliminated very quickly. I'd like to play some of the Russian planes and live long enough to complete some missions.
  19. Thanks, I have it, haven't played it much over the years, never could get the keyboard and joystick commands right. I'll have to try it again.
  20. LOMAC? What's that?

  21. Operation Desert Storm: 30th Anniversary Edition

    1Patriot-of-many commented on Menrva's file in User Made Campaigns

    Works great for my older HP Workstation. Settings on high, will try unlimited next. Dual Xeon(R) E5-2670 @ 2.6Ghz Ram 96 GB GTX1070 graphics Win7 64bit professional THANK YOU FOR MODDING THIS!
  22. Yeah me too, I must have bought every flight sim from the C64 to recent computers, somehow I missed Strike fighters 1 and 2 till a couple years ago, or how long I've been on these forums. Nice having mods galore.

  23. Partial Phillipines44 campaign - help!

    1Patriot-of-many commented on bop1701's file in User Made Campaigns

    Wish I could help, I'd love to have any campaign in WWII , I can never find all the planes that are required.
  24. Waiting to buy or build a new computer, I'd be glad to pay for a "new" game.
