  2. Improved Countermeasure Effect

    All in all, this is a mod that restores the visual effects of Flare according to the photos IRL, you can refer to the screenshot I uploaded.
    In addition to purely visual effects, the response to gravity has also been adjusted by the way, so this mod will look more realistic overall.
    And of course, this is still a BETA version, I think I need to make further adjustments.
     
    Usage:
    Copy Effects and Objects folders into your SF2 main folder

  4. WP GPNVG/AVS-10 shader in SF2 (Morden NOD style)

    【GPNVG-18 is a special NOD offering greater strength and durability during rough use in the field, as well as four high performance, MIL-SPEC Unfilmed White Phosphor image intensifier tubes that combine using specialized hybrid optics to provide the end user with an umatched 97° degree field of view, as opposed to the standard 40° field of view provided by traditional binocular night vision systems.】
     
    Highly recommond you guys use it with Realsky Environment Mod.
    This is a shader that can change the original color of the game to make it close to the color of White Phosphor Image Intensifier Tubes in reality. Of course, it will also really brighten the brightness of the picture.
     
    ===========================================================================================
    Usage/ Read Me!!!!!:
    1.put [TWPOSTPROCESS.FX] into your SF2's Flight folder【Back up recommonded】;
    2.check your graphics option and make sure Effects Detail choosed for Unlimited;
    3.make sure your Mission Start Time choosed for Night;
    4.fly and control the night!
     
    This is a shader ,so even in day time the night vision effect will trun on,delete [TWPOSTPROCESS.FX] to return default.

  5. GP AVS-6/9 shader in SF2 (old school style)

    Just like my former mod,this is a shader that can change the original color of the game to make it close to the color of Green Phosphor Image Intensifier Tubes in reality. 
     
    This one is more like AVS6/9 NOD usded by USAF during 1990s-2000s
     
    And Of course, it will also really brighten the brightness of the picture, highly recommond you guys use it with Realsky Environment Mod.

  8. SF2 Alternate Clean and Dirty Exhaust Emitters 2016

    SF2 Alternate Clean and Dirty Exhaust Emitters 2016
    By Viper63a
     
    This mod includes custom exhaust emitters to replace the stock Clean and Dirty emitters. I've been tweaking these for about a year now (!) and I think I finally have it the way I like it.
     
    If you're for vapor ripples or greasy streaks in the sky, these ain't it. The Clean emitter has just a tad bit more presence so you can see it when looking back. The Dirty emitter blooms darkly behinds the plane and fades into transparency.
     
    If you choose to install these effects, I recommend that you back up your current "Effects" folder. Just in case you want to go back to your original setup.
     
    To install, simply unzip and copy the uncompressed "To_Mod_Folder" folder to your "Saved Games" mod folder(s).
     
    Enjoy!

  10. Crashed/Destroyed Aircraft for SF2 WW2 Installs

    Destroyed Models Pak for SF2 WW2 Installs
     
    This package is for use in creating the 'Destroyed Crashed & Burning Wreck' ™ for add-on aircraft in SF2 based WW2 installs.
     
    These bits have been culled from the various terrain mods as these contained static parked aircraft with their associated destroyed lods. THESE are those destroyed lods!!, with repainted skins to make them look a bit more burned up/toasted. This will allow you to add them and have the burning wrecks on the ground ala the later model jets and so forth as seen in SF2 installs (and FE2 as well).
     
    As always, fully detailed (and illustrated!!) install instructions are included. As well as a highly detailed "Notes" section, elaborating on the procedure, and giving alternates as you =WILL= probably be using several stock destroyed models as well in the data ini edits, as some of the larger aircraft will require reuse of the stock wrecks.
     
    =PLEASE= read this document throughly before installing -- that will help you in making correct choices on what to use.
     
    This pak is for free usage; any and all are welcome to it. Let's enhance our SF2 WW2 Experience!!

  12. Improved Wingtip Vortex v1.0.rar

    Improved Wingtip Vortex Effect pack Version 1.0 by Eagle114th
     
    The purpose of this add-on effect mod is to improve the graphic of wingtip vortex in Strike Fighter 2. I have noticed that wingtip vortex, by default, looks bit unrealistic. So I have decided to improve these, inspired by modders from Combat Ace community, especially by Wrench and Stary. I am very thankful for this wonderful community and I am more than proud to be part of Combat Ace commmunity sharing my hobbies within Strike Fighter 2. I truly hope that you enjoy my improved wingtip vortex effect package, you can post feedback/suggestion for improving my effect pack at this link:
     
    http://combatace.com/topic/75798-wip-improved-wing-tip-vortices-updated-11-18-12/#entry601081
     
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    INSTALL INSTRUCTION:
     
    1) MAKE SURE YOU back up your EFFECT folder!
     
    2) Extract this file using winrar or 7zip tools and you will see a folder called "Improved Wingtip Vortex v1.0"
     
    3) There are two folders with types of wingtip vortex:
     
    - Straight trails Version = new wingtip vortex effect with straight trails
    - Shakey trails Version = new wingtip vortex effect with shakey trails
     
    You can only pick ONE of these two folders, you can't have both at the same time. You can try one of these two version first. Then try other and see which one you like the best. However, inside these folder you will see "Effect" folder, drop them in your strike fighter 2 mod folder and overwrite when asked.
     
    4) ENJOY!
     
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    Known BUGS/Problem:
     
    Shakey version of wingtip vortex trails disappears at specific angle when you view them, this is due to nature of 2D. I have tried creating 3D volumetric version of wingtrip vortex, they got too complicated and hogs cpu and memories lot. I had to cancel my project of converting 2D wingtip vortex from 2D to 3D, to avoid heavy cpu and memories hogging for anyone's computer. I intend to make this mod very friendly for any computer. That is exactly why I created two version of wingtip vortex (straight and shakey).
     
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    CREDIT:

  13. New Dirty Exhaust Effects For SF2

    New Dirty Exhaust Effects For SF2
     
    By NeverEnough
     
    This exhaust effect was inspired by the work of Deuces, Fubar512 and Spillone104.
     
    This exhaust effect is compatible with both SF2 and SFP1.
     
    This New Dirty Exhaust Effects package includes a NewDirtyExhaustEmitter.ini which can be used to supplement the old DirtyExhaustEmitter.ini in your Effects folder for some additional exhaust effect variety.
     
    The New Dirty Exhaust Effect will generate a longer and less dense exhaust plume than the Dirty Bird Exhaust Effect.
     
    The New Dirty Exhaust Effect is configured so that it may be used in either single engine or multiple engine aircraft. The DirtySingleExhaustEmitter will produce slightly less exhaust volume than the DirtyDualExhaustEmitter when used on a dual engine aircraft if you want to decrease the volume of smoke signature for your multi-engine models.
     
    If you wish to have a slightly more smokey single engine aircraft, you could utilize the DirtyDualExhaustEmitter in a single engine aircraft.
     
     
     
    You can easily choose between the two effects to get whatever exhaust smoke trails happen to suit you!
     
    Both of these exhaust effects can be applied to single, dual or multi-engined aircraft models.
     
    This File is Freeware and can not be sold or included in any Payware software.

  14. Dirty Bird Exhaust Effect For SF2

    Dirty Bird Exhaust Effect For SF2
     
    By NeverEnough
     
    This exhaust effect was inspired by the work of Deuces, Fubar512 and Spillone104.
     
    After looking at lots of photos of the billowing smoke trails generated by the phantastic F-4 Phantom; I wanted to try to duplicate these big, greasy skidmarks in the sky.
     
    The Dirty Bird Exhaust Effect is configured so that it may be used in either single engine or dual engine aircraft. The DBSingleExhaustEmitter will produce slightly more exhaust volume than the DBDualExhaustEmitter when used on a dual engine aircraft if you really want to accelerate global warming.
     
    If you wish to have a slightly less smokey single engine aircraft, you could utilize the DBDualExhaustEmitter in a single engine aircraft.
     
    This exhaust effect is compatible with both SF2 and SFP1.
     
    Also included in the Dirty Bird Exhaust Effect package, is a particularly striking loading screen of the dirty end of a West German F-4F Phantom.
     
    This File is Freeware and can not be sold or included in any Payware software.

  19. Postprocess shader tweaks

    Postprocess shader tweaks
     
    FOR STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 DirectX 10 ONLY!
    Made for and tested in SF2 all titles merged with Expansion Packs 1&2
    (but should work with any SF2 title)
     
    version 1.0
    30.12.2010
     
    This is set of modified Thirdwire postprocess shader variants that change the appearance of Strike Fighters 2.
     
    This mod works only in Strike Fighters 2 in Dx10 mode. Also you need to set your effects detail to unlimited for this shader to display!
    Please note that when using sepia, fake night vision and black&white shaders, various on-screen elements (like gunsight, HUD, radar display box and text) are still displayed unchanged. These are processed using different own shaders.
     
    Included are several variants, with various color corrections (old film, sepia, black and white, light green, nightvision) and various strenghts of screen vignetting.

  20. Tracermania

    Tracermania
    AAA Tracers and bullets modification
     
    FOR STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 Europe with Expansion pack 2
    Made for and tested in SF2 all titl mergedwithes merged with Expansion Packs 1&2
     
    by Stary
    version 1.0
    06.12.2010
     
    This little modification changes the number of tracers fired by all stock AAA units and patrol boats. Number of tracers has been increased 5 times, instead of every fifth bullet being tracer round now EVERY SINGLE bullet fired by Triple-A is tracer. Also I changed the data for stock partol boats, that makes these vessels track and attack air targets too.
    Second tweak is the increase of bullets fired in a burst by AAA crews, usually from 12 to 20 or 24. This seem to me does not make them more or less accurate.
    As these changes may increase CPU usage I eliminated ALL tracersmoke trails of any kind for any calibre guns (...)

    -----------------------------------------------------
     
    Hollywood Explosions f/x pack is my 4th edition of effects modding. I decided to name it this way, as a tribute to Longbow/Longbow 2 series of simulators -there was such an option there...
     
    And ideology besides, as EE4 sounds kinky, new name for the pack... ok, RAMBO 4 was good, ALIEN Ressu-whatever was not...

  22. SF2 Combo Effect Pack v1.00

    Compiled and Cleaned up by Ryan Crierie (MKSheppard)
     
    Also available on my website at:
    http://www.alternatewars.com/Mods/SF2/SF2.htm
    In case you hit your daily download limit
     
    -----------------
     
    I claim no ownership or creation rights for any of thes effects; I just modded them to make them work in SF2, and then put them together to make it easier for other SF2 Owners.
     
    v1.00 circa 12/23/2009.
     
    I went through all of my installed effects INIs from all my addons and the various effects packs, like Deuce's, LEXX LUTHOR's Strategic Nuclear Effects™, etc and edited them to make them SF2 shader compatible to fix missing effects like MiG-19 afterburners not appearing, etc.
     
    I used the rule of:
     
    Materials that have BlendOp=BLEND_SRC_ALPHA
    EffectShaderName=effectLightLevel.fx
    (aka Volumetric emitters like smoke, groundmist, dust).
     
    Materials that have BlendOp=BLEND_INV_SRC_ALPHA_ADD_SRC
    EffectShaderName=twColor1.fx
    (aka fire, explosion, light, flash, flare, streaks)
     
    Found on Combat Ace Knowledge DB.
     
    I slightly modified LEXX LUTHOR's Strategic Afterburner files so that you can have both Large and Small versions in use at the same time e.g. J58_Large calls the Large effect and J58_Small calls the Small effect. You can see this in the Screenshot for this mod; the one on the left is J79_Small and the one on the right is J79_Large.
     
    I also rewrote some of LEXX's Nuclear Weapons Readme to make it a bit more comprehensible on how to make weapons datafiles call those effects in SF2.
