SF2 WW2 ADF Loop Antennas for CBI Usage 12/14/2013
 
-- Something for the CBI players --
 
= For SF2, (Any and All) =
 
*Note: may also be usable in 1stGen SF/Wo*; 08 level probable. 06 Level unknown*
 
Two versions of Russo's ADF loop antenna as used by US aircraft in the China/Burma/India theatre in WW2.
 
One is standard Olive Drab (for standard OD painted aircraft)
 
The other is Natural Metal (for non-painted, NM aircraft)
 
These are added via the "fake pilot" method, as seen on the recently released P-40K-5 mod and the P-47D Razorback for China. The "fake pilot" is included as well.
The psd template, for those that want any other colors, is provided in the OD Loop's folder.
 
As always, relatively (speaking) easy to follow, but highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
 
Good Homing!

with exspecial thanks to Russo for making these!

I had once worked on a campaign for SF1, set in the Marianas, June 1944 (using Wrench's map). I had let it aside, then discovered that The Dev A-Team had perfectly completed this project within its free mod for SF2 full-5 merged: WW2Pacific, and its Expansion Pack 1 (available as usual at Capun Skunkworks). Yet, I'd like to provide here some recyclable marginal works I had designed for this campaign, updated and complemented for an SF2 release, which could be a fine graphical addition to The Dev A-Team's mod:
A batch of colorful, reduced-size counters, devoted to each of the nationalities significantly present during the War in the Pacific – but also expanding to the CBI Theater (China-Burma-India). Besides having a more attractive map and less confused stacks, you can also find more easily the units you're after. As a rule, the counters with rectangular national flags and regimental/divisional devices show the ground units, while the counters with roundels concern the air units. For several nations, alternative counters are included to cover the different periods of The War when the aircraft skins or roundels changed.
Lot of screens and related texts, initially intended to be linked to my own Marianas 1944 campaign (screens are converted to .jpg format, and includes some alternative screens). Screens and texts cover: openings, daily missions briefings, and campaign victory/draw/defeat/KIA debriefings, for each side.

Bon appétit !

WW2 Eastern China Terrain for SF2 11/18/2013
 
- For SF2, Any & All (Full-5 Merged Reccomended)
 
= For Adventures in The Far East =
 
*Note: This pack is designed to REPLACE, in total, any eariler versions of this terrain.*
 
**Note2: IMPORTANT! Make sure you have the WW2 ground objects!!**
 
This map repsents Eastern China (mainland), Formosa, the South China Sea regions from Chan-Chiang (Fort Bayard) in the south to Shanghai in the north, Taipei in the East and Chungking in the west. It has been COMPLETLY rebuilt from the original; almost nothing from the original remains, excepting perhaps the shapes of the land masses and oceans.
 
The map depicts the region in approximately mid-late 1943. Some Friendly sites were eventually captured during Japanese operations in late 44. To that end, I've left 2 maps in the "extra bits" folder, showing the Japanese routes, for any campaign builders.
 
The LimitedNations statement is set to TRUE, allowing only for the regional powers that took part. The terrain also makes use of the 'Allowed Missions' statement, as there are NO Friendly shipping routes for IJAAF/IJN forces to attack (although I wish we COULD use the rivers for such...they're just a bit too narrow). All other missions statement, for both sides, remain intact.
 
LOTS of new tiles and their associated TODs have been created, and match the GH3 styling. There is also, as expected, a few Easter Eggs.
 
Also included are several GroundObjects, (repaints/repurposing of 2 of Kesselbruts' Zil truck for IJA usage) and etc seen in my other terrain mods. These are designed to REPLACE any pre-existing ones I've done. Be advised, you'll still need many of the other WW2 PTO objects I've included in other terrain mod paks. Make sure you have them!!!
 
REMEMBER: you will need the latest WW2 weapons and Guns pack!
 
**Geophysical Disclaimer: some rivers and other water features may not follow their Real Life ™ courses, or be placed in their Real Life ™ locations, or exist at all. Several cities and other physical features may also fall into that classification. Some cities exist as 'named places' only. Some exist only as 'city tiles' sitting on the landscape. Some airfields may not be in their historical locaitons or headings due to Height Field and other tiling restrictions.**
 
As always, unzip this to a temp folder or your desktop, and you'll have access to the rest of the readme for it's instructions. It's reccomended you READ this document through after unzipping, but BEFORE installing.
As always, the Notes and Other Nonesense section may make for entertaining reading.
 
Please also read -and OBEY- the New Standard Usage Discalimer, as it's been modified to reflect changes in my policy. It's listed at the bottom, in the Legal Statement Section, with the URL back to the CA post.
 
Good Hunting!

Lioré-et-Olivier LeO 45
 
 
Lioré-et-Olivier LeO 45 was a French medium bomber used during World War II. It was a low-wing monoplane, all metal in construction, equipped with a retractable undercarriage and powered by two 1,060 hp Gnome-Rhône 14N engines. The prototype had two 1,100 hp Hispano-Suiza engines. It was a very effective bomber, but it appeared too late to give any substantial contribution to the war effort. Although designed before World War II, it remained in service until September 1957.

SF2 WW2 P-47D Razorback, 91st FS, 81sth FG, CBI, Skin/Decal Pak 12/11/2013
 
-- Something for the WW2 CBI players --
 
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
**Note: this mod is designed for use =ONLY= in a WW2 CBI-Centric mods folder. In fact,
research seems to indicate this unit (81st FG) operated only over China from mid-1944*
 
New skin and decal set for Wolf257's P-47D-20 Razorback Thunderbolt, recreate the 91st FS,
81st FG as seen in China from mid-1944 thru war's end.
 
The included data ini has several changes (listed below in "Change List")
 
The skin is in jpg format, and decal randomization is TRUE. The serial numbers, while
'generic' in nature, ARE correct for the model variant depicted.
 
In the folder "for china usage only", is a theatre-specific data ini, with the approximated
start date/month of P-47 operations in the CBI. You should ONLY use that one. OTH, the
other ini, in the main aircraft folder, can be used for any of Wolf's Jugs for ETO or MTO
usage (after removal of the ADF loop statements, of course!)
 
REMINDER!! Jugs in the PTO (ie: SoWesPac and Central Pacific), did NOT use the DF loop; it
is a CBI thing only. Once again, making the point of having a CBI-only Mods Folder.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE
read them!!

SF2 WW2 Ki-43iib, 25 Sentai, 2 Chutai, China Skin/Decal Pak 12/11/2013
 
-- Something for the WW2 CBI players --
 
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
**Note: this mod is designed for use =ONLY= in a WW2 CBI-Centric mods folder In fact, 25 Sentai seems to have =ONLY= operated over China, not further out into Burma/Indochina.**
 
This pak is to be applied to the Ki-43 Oscar Pak (original aircraft by Wolf257), available at the following URL:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/13248-sf2-ki-43-hayabusa-oscar-pak-by-wolf257/
 
This pack depicts 2nd Chutai, 25th Sentai, IJAAF over China in late 43 thru late 44 timeframe (actully, unitl war's end).
As all Wolf's Oscars are the same, it can be used on any other of the various marks available in the pack listed above.
As the Chutai marking is a decal, one can easily recreate the other Chutai by making a new one, in that Chutai color. A psd is provided for those with the talent and willlingness to do so. Of course, new plane-in-group number decals will also need creation; that also up to those End Users ™ that choose to take on the task.
As you can guess, the Chutai markings and numbers are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE.
 
When in game, you'll see
 
25 Sentai, 2 Chutai (China)
 
on the skin selection drop down on the Loadout Screen.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!

SF2 WW2 F-6D (RF-51D) Mustang Skin/Decal Pak 12/05/2013
 
-- Something for the WW2 players --
 
= For SF2 =ONLY=, Full-5 Merged, plus ExPak 1 (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: must have the SF2I Expansion Pak (whichever one gave us the Mustang) in your Merged Installs, due to this aircraft referencing the Stock 3rd Wire Mustang serial number decals*
 
A simple reskin for the KAW Era RF-51D, creates a "Plane Jane" F6D Mustang for WW2 usage. The aircrat has no squadron or other type of markings. This makes it usable in any theatre. However, it should be noted, SOME units did have their own markings. Consider THIS skin for exactly what it is: Generic ™
 
To be used on the KAW RF-51D; the aircraft is available at the following URL:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/13518-sf2-kaw-rf-51d-mustang/
 
Like the original, it uses DDS textues, and will NOT work in any 1stGen game installs at all.
This skin uses the "StartDefaultDate=" statement, so as to start in 1944 (aircraft's default in service year).
National markings are painted on; decal randomization (for the serials) is TRUE
 
When in game, you'll see:
 
"Natural Metal (WW2)
 
on the skin selection drop down menu.
 
REMINDER: you MUST have the RF-51D installed BEFORE installing this skinpak. See "To Insall" for more details
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!

Decimomannu , Giogia del colle and Souda Bay bases are on the limits of the map, so you may hit the "Wall" , in order to avoid this just start the mission from air.
Solenaza air base, although mentioned, it does not exist so the french units based there in the real life, in the mod operate from Italy.
No weapons and effects are included, so please download the lastest weapon/effects pack.
 
 
 
 
|
|Important Remarks:
|
 
Most of the missions are just Strike missions against warehouses etc , so if you had expected
a super intense campaign this is not your mod.
 
French and european air forces have the dominant role in the MOD , US presence is purely testimonial as well as Libyan forces.

************************ Israeli Air Force F-118 Pack for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 ************************
 
This pack contains several Israeli Air Force versions of the Vought Raider F-118 - created by Cocas (Daniel) - and it has been tested on a May '13 fully merged install of all 5 games. It requires SF2:Israel for the A/C serial numbers to show up on the tails, however, it will run without SF2:I but the tails will be blank.
 
***Aircraft can be found under "VOUGHT F-118" in the In-Game Menu***
 
History
--------
 
In 1974 the USAF started the Light Weight Fighter competition for a new light combat Fighter to complement the F-15A Eagle and in this version of History the winner was..........The Vought F-118A Raider. The aircraft's low cost and advanced design meant that it was exported widely, with Israel in particular buying a sizeable amount and modifying them well beyond what the original designers had ever thought possible.
 
This pack is designed to roughly mirror the service history of the F-16C/D/I so the design of a Blk30 F-118 is fairly similar to that of a Blk30 F-16 for example.
 
 
Installation
-------------
 
Unzip then copy and paste the Effects/Flight/Objects folders into your Mod folder, usually C:\Users\YOUR NAME\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 **or whatever yours is called**.
 
 
AIRCRAFT
------------
 
Aircraft Specific Info -
----------------------
 
Single Seat -
 
Vought Raider F-118C 'Netz-A' ('87 - '94) - Initially designed as a fighter with a limited Air to Ground capability the IAF transformed it into a capable multi-role aircraft, able to dominate the airspace whilst improving the original designs limited Air to Ground capabilities.
 
Vought Raider F-118H 'Barak' ('95 - '30) - This upgrade saw everything from the engine to weapons to the avionics all upgraded, especially with the addition of Conformal Fuel Tanks (CFT's) to allow the pylons to be fully loaded with the latest smart weapons instead of fuel tanks creating a true multi-role aircraft whilst still allowing it to retain a significant Air to Air capability should the need arise.
 
Two Seat -
 
Vought Raider F-118D 'Netz-B' ('87 - '94) - Originally designed as a trainer the IAF transformed it into a superb Strike & Wild Weasel aircraft. More importantly for the IAF, the 2nd crew member also turned it into a deadly CAS aircraft.
 
Vought Raider F-118I 'Barak II' ('95 - '04) - This upgrade saw everything from the engine to weapons to the avionics all upgraded, especially with the addition of Conformal Fuel Tanks (CFT's) to allow the pylons to be fully loaded with the latest smart weapons instead of fuel tanks which, with it's 2nd crew member and advanced avionics, makes it ideal for the Wild Weasel role.
 
Vought Raider F-118M 'Sufa' ('05 - '30) - This massive upgrade once more saw everything uprated, from the engine to the weapons it can carry and, with this version, the avionics were all hugely upgraded, allowing it survive far behind any future enemy's lines, a mission for which it was especially designed. In addition to the CFT's fitted on the Barak II there was now a Spine Rack fitted to store all the extra Avionics required to make this the most advanced F-118 in Israel's inventory and possibly the deadliest aircraft in the Middle East.
 
OTHER INFO
-----------
 
Issues -
------
 
Python Missiles & Fuselage Pylons - Due to the size of the rear fins on the Python Missiles then can sometimes touch the stores put on the inboard wing pylon.
 
MApping - The mapping is difficult around the nose with some skin stretching. The USAF Euro skin was really tricky, so much so that I wanted to punch a thousand cute kittens in their cute little faces by the end, after spending hours/days trying to get the edges to match up! So sadly some of it's not as good as I'd like but the PS templates are out to so hopefully you can improve on my skin.
 
Weapons - PLEASE download Ravenclaw007's weapons packs, they are truly fantastic and include many unique Israeli weapons which haven't been included in this pack.

North Dakota Texaco tanker v1.0 for SF2
 
This is an attempt at making a better-looking target as compared to the stock cargoship. I think this looks better.
 
Be advised this uses normalmapping and is thus incompatible with versions of the game earlier than february 2010. Works fine in DX9 however though you'll not see any per-pixel lighting. Won't work in 1st gen games so don't even bother.
 
Pictars:
 


 
Installation:
 
Simply extract the contents of the package into your ground objects folder. It'll overwrite your stock cargoship so that, you know, it'll actually show up in missions.
 
Known Issues:
 
Destroyed model absolutely refuses to show up ingame. However I've included the lod file so any enterprising souls can give it a go.
