    1. IDF camo scheme for C-130 (TW model)
       
      by Gerwin 12-2012
       
      DESCRIPTION:
      Made for the SFP1 C-130A model, pretending to be a C-130E Transport Aircraft
      as used by the Israel since 1973. The tail shows the insiginia of 131 Squadron
      - The Yellow Bird.
       
      Unfortunately the stock C-130 model is no longer included in SF2.
       
      INSTALLATION:
      Copy the included folder with contents to the folder that contains
      the C-130 files, for example:
      SFP1\Objects\Aircraft\C-130A
      or preferably create a seperate aircraft, based on the C-130A model:
      SFP1\Objects\Aircraft\C-130E
       
      For SF2 usage put the decals in the decals folder like this:
      .\Decals\C-130E\IDFcamo1\D

    2. Hawker Hunter FGA.9 - 1970's Wittering Wing for STRIKE FIGHTERS 1
      This is a simple decal conversion of the sublime Third Wire Hunter FGA.9 to enable you to fly a mid-1970's era Hunter from the short-lived Wittering Wing that was created to keep RAF newly graduated ground-attack pilots 'current' whilst waiting for the Jaguar to enter service.
      This will only work in 'Wings Over Europe' but you can, of course, also make it work in the other Third Wire Series One games by extracting and exporting all of the relevant files.

      INSTRUCTIONS
      1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9w folder into your Aircraft folder.
      2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9w into your Decals folder.
      Your stock Hunter FGA.9 will not be affected by this mod.

      CREDITS
      Thanks to TK for a great little game/sim.
      And thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

    3. Hawker Hunter FGA.9, No.8 Squadron, Royal Air Force for STRIKE FIGHTERS 1
      This is a quick decal conversion of the sublime Third Wire Hunter FGA.9 to enable you to fly a No.8 squadron machine.
      This will only work in Wings Over Europe but you can, of course, also make it work in the other Third Wire 'Series One' games by extracting and exporting all of the relevant files. Since originally releasing this I've added Syrinx's fuselage serial numbers for the Hunter and included a nice loading screen and tweaked the hangar screen to give it 1960's three colour roundels.

      INSTRUCTIONS
      1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9 folder into your Aircraft folder.
      2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9 into your Decals folder.

      CREDITS
      Thanks to TK for a great little game/sim.
      Thanks to former member Syrinx for making the fuselage serial numbers.
      And thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

    4. Gunny's brought Yall' a Holiday Gift.... :yes:
       
       
       
      USMC TA-4F Skyhawk II "Fast FAC's by 331Killerbee
       
      This Mod represents the 24 Aircraft the Marine Corps used as "Fast Facs" durning the Veitnam War.
      TA-4F's were used as "Fast Facs" by three "Hams" Units. "Hams" is Marine jargon for Headquaters and
      Maintence Squadrons. (OMD) 16 Aircraft were operated by H&MS-11 out of Da Nang AB. H&MS-12 operated6 Aircraft out of Chu Lai AB. H&MS-13 operated just 2 out of Chu Lai. This Mod reflects that with
      the proper Serials for each Squadron as they operated in the Republic of Veitnam.
       
       
      Credits: Fracture for his great Model of the TA-4J and Templetes. Thanx a bunch!
      My many Friends in the Strike Fighters World. Thanx for the Fun!
       
       
      INSTALLATION: Please Read Carefully!
       
      First you need a Copy of Fracture's TA-4J
       
      You can obtain one at Combatace under Strike Fighters Downloads under the Aircraft Section
      Under A-4 Skyhawks.
       
      Copy one File: TA-4J.Lod over to the TA-4F File provided here. That's it. No Re-Nameing of anything.
      No messing with the Weapons Editor.......That's it! Then have Fun!
       
      For Questions and Comments, I can be PM'd here by the callsign 542tiger ala' 331Killerbee...

    5. SF1 F-80C/T-33A/F-94B/RF-80A Korean War Skin Pack

      For Pasko/Gramps/Column5's F-80C/T-33A/F-94B models.
      Updated skins for SF1 Korean War install.
      Contains Korean War skins for the following aircraft and units:
      F-80C Shooting Star:
      35th FBS
      36th FBS
      80th FBS
      F-94B Starfire:
      68th FIS
      RF-80A Photo/Recon Shooting Star:
      15th TRS
      T-33A Shooting Star Trainer, Hack & FAC:
      35th FBS
      36th FBS
      80th FBS
      (These T-33A skins are fictional.  I've found very little info/pictures of T-33's in the Korean War.  What I have pieced together says T-33's were used as trainers, taxi's, forward air controllers and whatever the unit wanted or was able to do with them.  I painted these with a little poetic license to match the 3 F-80C unit skins provided in this download.)
      These skins are in BMP format at 1024 x 1024 pixels.
      These are old models and have a few anomolies such as bleeding color from templates.

      Thanks and credit goes to:
      Pasko/Gramps/Column5 - for the aircraft models.
      Wrench - for the decals and skins from the SF2 KAW skins pack for EricGen's SF2 F-80C/T-33A/F-94B/RF-80C from which I borrowed.  Also for the original Templates I modified.
      PauloPanz - for the 68th FIS skin for ErikGen's SF2 F-94B from which I borrowed pieces.
      pappychksix - for original SF1 F-80C Korean War pack skins I repainted.
      Muesli / pappychksix(?) - for OD Green Camo skin I modified/repainted for the RF-80A.
      Geary - for reworking everyone else's work; new lines and rivets, etc.; repaints; cameras on RF-80A; small tweaks.
       
      If I forget or miss anyone who deserves credit for anything I release, I apologize.  I have no intent to abuse or misuse anyone's work or property or claim it as my own.  Please contact me to correct any error.

    6. SF1 F9F-5 & F9F-5P Panther Skins.
       
      For those of us that still fly SF1, who still enjoy the old Korean War mod and who would like some updated F9F-5/5P Panther skins for the Korean theatre.
       
      This download contains the Fighter/Bomber and Photo Reconnaissance aircraft as well as skins.
       

      Because I used Wrench's SF2 F9F-2 decals, you may notice the BuNums referencing the aircraft as F9F-2 models instead of F9F-5 models. Change them if you wish/can.
       

      Most of these old SF1 skins didn't use the decal system. They do now.
       

      I only created a template and repainted over the old skins. The model is a bit old and has some quirks with the paint and decals. You will notice some paint streaks and line deformation caused by these quirks.
       
      Thanks and credit go to:
       
      Pasko/Column5/Gramps/Major Lee/Marcfighters - for the F9F-5 & F9F-5P models uploaded by Guest.
       
      Wrench - for the decals from the Wrench/Bobrock SF2 Korean War Era F9F-2 Panther Pak.
       
      Creature - for the hook, canopy folding wings fix.
       
      Geary - for template, paints, repaints, etc...
       
      MultiUnknownSources - for the weapons and pilot.
       

      If you wish to paint your own skins, the template is available for the asking. Just PM me. It is in .psd format.
       
      These skins are in .bmp format and were created at 1024 pixels. They are 3MB each but can be downsized for those of you who can't use them this large.
       
      If I forget or miss anyone who deserves credit for anything I release, I apologize. I have no intent to abuse or misuse anyone's work or property or claim it as my own. Please contact me to correct any error.
       
      INSTALLATION: Unzip to a folder/place of your choice. Copy, Move, Drag-n-Drop or do whatever you wish to get the folders into their corresponding folders in your SF1 Korea install. If you don't already have the weapon information in your weapondata.ini file, add it. Run the SF1 Weapons Editor. Fly.
