Strike Fighters by Thirdwire

i made this bombs for the Buccaneer project but i release this pack as stand alone version since this bombs where not only carried by the Buccaneer , a lot of other aircraft from the RAF and RN did carry this bombs as well
 
to install simply drop them in to your weapons folder
 
Note:
especially for the WE.177A is it important to make a direct hit since the 10kt warhead makes only a "limited" damage,
best results will be with this parameters for bomb release
Speed = 450kts
Altitude = 10000ft
Range to target = 1.8Nm
 
on some Aircraft you have to edit the data.ini by adding NUC to the weapontype of the selected weaponsstation
 
have fun

This is GPU-5/A gunpod for use with Wrench's excellent A-16 ground attack aircraft.
 
Includes two variants, GPU-5/A painted green to match Wrench's Euro scheme, and GPU-5/A (GRAY) in gray colour.
 
As a bonus includes my "personal" slightly tweaked 30mm GAU-13/A Cannon -tweaks include: less accurate, effects aliased to 30mm type of effects (was 23mm) and with different tracer image.

Again a special thanks to Dave who strongly wanted this airplane to which initially I was not so interested. I hope I did forget no one.
This version has tanks built in; with the tank skins in the right aircraft skin folder . 3D models and Skins are from mppd.
This should also fix the shadow issues. Also fixes some weps position issues.
 
To install just put into your SF2 saved games/thirdwire/StrikeFighters2 and let it overwrite folders as needed.
 
In the F-101A/C folders is a folder call 3 gun version and that is for anyone who wants to use the version that was used in Europe that had the a gun removed and replaced with TACAN equipment.

Hi, this is my adapt for the Yak-141, i just put things together and made it to work in SF2 standard, everything has been made to put it in the respective mod folders, if you are prompted to overwrite, please do so, the only part you need to work with, goes to the Soundlist.ini which you need to extract and place it in the flight folder, and add the following lines:
 
SoundFileXXX=GSh301................ XXX standing as the next number in the sounds sequence.
 
[GSh301]
Priority=NORMAL
Looped=TRUE
NumBuffers=4
3DSound=TRUE
DopplerEffect=FALSE
MaxDist=1000.000000
MinDist=50.000000
InsideConeAngle=360
OutsideConeAngle=360
ConeOutsideVolume=0..............this goes at the very bottom
of the sounds list.
 
I used a modified Su-27 Flanker cockpit, since it`s the closest one to the real plane, based in pics i found, also the avionics are more modern, just to think as a what if this plane would have entered in service, she would be active as of today.
 
VTOL Operation Checklist:
 
1) BE SMOOTH AT ALL TIMES....Deploy air brakes (required to raise forward lift engine intake screen)
 
2) Set flaps to full
 
3) Set nozzles to full down position
 
4) Release wheel brakes
 
5) Apply throttle SMOOTHLY. You will start lifting at approx. 87% throttle. Under no circumstances should you apply more than 89% throttle when in VTOL mode, or you will loose control when the AB kicks in.
 
6) As you're gaining altitude, dip the nose forward slightly while still in VTOL mode to gain forward momentum.
 
7) Raise the landing gear, and begin swiveling the nozzles back (as smoothly as possible), as you gain forward speed.
 
8) Retract the air brake/intake screen as you pass 80 knots, raise the flaps all the way at 170 knots,
 
9) Did I remind you to be smooth as often as I should have? : )
 
10) Practice makes perfect!

Enhanced GermanyCE tileset -no trees for grass (R-type) tiles
 
fix/addon to my GermanyCE enhanced tileset.
 
This is quick fix that removes trees from R-type (in original TW tileset empty grass only) tiles.
 
As most seem to be using custom GermanyCE_tagets.ini file(s) with various airfields added (like those in Nato Fighters 4+ or others) I did this fix.
 
This will also allow future usage of my tileset by modders working on new campaigns with even more new airfields planned, yet to be released.
 
To install simply unzip to your mods installation GermanyCE folder, overwrite when asked. You can also delete the GermanyCE.TFD file that came with my GermanyCE tileset (no custom tiles layout needed)

This tiny mod is my modification of stock post-June11 environmentsystem.ini, that I created in spare time for own enjoyment. Incorporated are several tweaks and graphics files I created to slightly change the looks and feel of the SF2 series environment.
 
Changes include:
 
New, light blue sky colour for midday
New, more purple, "cinematic" sky colours for sunrise/sunset
Slightly modified fog colours
Reduced sky glow for sunrise/sunset
New, slighly bigger sun with new sun graphics
New sun flare
New clouds sizes and graphics for all weather types
Now clear weather has some small fluffy clouds too
New, bigger lens flares with new graphics
Slightly bigger Moon
New stars graphics
New, stronger base winds and gusts for more dramatic smoke columns etc.
Other tiny changes
 
Please note: as of Expansion Pack 2, clouds height seems to be locked at specific untweakable altitude (=> ~10000 feet).
I, aswell as others, tried various settings, even negative cloud base height values to no luck.

A What If of a What If skin, this is adapted solely for the F/A-18E

This is repainted, enhanced tileset of GermanyCE terrain from SF2 Europe.
 
Version 1.1 -check changelog for list of updates.
 
All roads have been darkened, now appear as medium gray; opposite to previous yellowish -white.
All seasons have been replaced by new ones, slightly different than before. New seasons added -thaw before spring and early summer.
All TOD files are new, taken strictly from "trees, buildings graphics, TODs update" recently released.
Main G-type fields layout has been corrected and organised. Now layout is back more like it was in original TW tileset. Corresponding modified TODs included.
As an experiment all bmp files have been replaced by jpg format for HDD space conservation.
Tiles are 512x512, downsampled from 1024x1024 templates.
 
This pack FULLY replaces any of my GermanyCE 4 seasons mods. You don't need to have previous version installed -if you do, all old files will be replaced by new ones.

Hi all,
 
This is a new JetEngine.WAV file to replace the old stock JetEngine.WAV. I have taken two files and imported them into Audacity and edited the levels and such to create what I think is a more authentic, universal jet engine sound for all stock, and 3rd party aircraft. It has more bass, and sound more like your hearing the aircraft from about a 100 feet away, instead of 2-3. For the most part, you can't really hear the fan blades and whine of a turbojet from 100 or more feet away. It's more of a roar. I had been looking for a sound like this for awhile, but I finally made it my self. Drop in your Sounds folder and overwrite when asked.
 
Enjoy!
 
Credits-These two files were merged together to create the final product:

Here is the recommended SOUNDLIST.ini entry for JetEngine:

Hi Ho Silver

This is just a set of skins I've had lying around for ages now, they're set up as stand alone planes because they use slightly different bump maps than those supplied by TK, otherwise everything else is the same as stock.
 
You can add the skins to the stock aircraft folders if you dont want any more planes in your menue and dont mind some details not lining up correctly in certain light conditions.
 
Sundowner.

This skin is designed for The Mirage Factory F-14B Tomcat.
 
The contained paint scheme is representative of the Be-Devilers shortly after they received the F-14A+ Tomcat, roughly around the 1988 timeframe. Looking at pictures of the Be-Devilers Turkeys from 1988-1991, I found the birds to be consistently painted in a lighter grey, which I found was similar to Dave's VF-41 MiG killers, so giving credit where it's due: I used his skin as the starting point. VF-74's Tomcats, during this timeframe, were very lo-viz; A/C #101 would eventually wear a red lightning bolt later on (and the Olympic rings during ODS). I also made the F110 "turkey feathers" a bit shinier, as the majority of the pictures I've seen of VF-74's F-14A+'s between 1988 and 1990 have pretty darn shiny feathers.
 
VF-74 Be-Devilers were one of the later squadrons to receive the Tomcat, beginning transition from the F-4S in 1983. Aboard the USS Saratoga, VF-74 gained notoriety when their aircraft were assigned to force down a hijacked Egypt Air Boeing 737 in 1985 (this incident inspiring a similar scene in the movie Executive Decision). In 1988, VF-74 and VF-103 received the F-14A-Plus Tomcat, and flew these aircraft during Operation Desert Storm. Following the Navy's decision to draw down their Tomcat fleet (going from two squadrons to one per carrier) VF-74 wound up shore-side, directly under the command of COMFITWINGLANT, while their sister squadron (VF-103 Sluggers), whose Tomcats were equipped with TARPS, continued to go on cruise. The Be-Devilers became an aggressor squadron starting in 1993, flying against both Navy and Air Force blue forces during exercises and training. The following year, the Be-Devilers made one last cruise before being disestablished on 30 April, 1994.
 
I was able to find 10 of the aircraft which served with VF-74 in the late 1980s-ODS. (Thanks also to EricJ for assistance here). Aircraft found herein:
 
162925 AA100
162919 AA101
161434 AA102
162923 AA103
162924 AA104
163221 AA105
161435 AA106
161432 AA107
161870 AA110
163408 AA111
 
Install Instructions:
 
Open your Strike Fighters 2 Mod Folder
 
Drag the "Objects" file from VF-74 archive into the base mod folder (e.g. StrikeFighters2 Europe). I have the folder set up so it should go to the right place. If you don't trust that, navigate through Objects->Aircraft->F-14B and drag the VF74 folder into the aircraft folder. Then, go back, get to decals, and drop the VF74 decal file into your F-14B Decal folder.
 
Texture Set is:
[TextureSetxxx]
Directory=VF74
Name=VF-74 Be-Devilers
Nation=USN
Squadron=VF-74
Specular=0.200000
Glossiness=0.350000

This is small update to my HR GermanyCE 4-seasons terrain released in 2009.
 
Purpose of this update is to replace trees and buildings graphics with new ones, hopefully for the better feel and looks.
Also included are reworked .TOD files (files determinating population of tiles with objects) that make the trees more real-life size (as for Central Europe) and correct several tiles layout. As of some patches back, alpha-channel for buildings seems not supported, I removed all the "tricky" buildings that were using the apha channel for transparency effects (some fake lame windmills etc).
 
Includes GermanyCE.ini and GermanyCE_data.ini files, updated to newest standards.
