MiG-21 Cockpits for WOI
-----------------------------------------
ORIGINALLY BY: MAGO aka PALADRIAN, BADGER the BAD, & FUBAR512
Modified for use with WoI and multiplayer by: streakeagle
Released with permission from: PALADRIAN
 
-----------------------------------------
INSTALLATION
-----------------------------------------
Extract the "Objects" and "Sounds" folders from the WOIMiG21 zip file if you have not done so already.
Copy these two folders to your main Wings Over Israel directory.
That’s it!
I have also included the original documents from the other cockpit releases.
 
-----------------------------------------
COMMENTS
-----------------------------------------
This mod proivdes only a basic package.
It upgrades all of the stock MiG-21 variants in Wings Over Israel to be flyable.
It primarily adds 3d cockpits previously released for SFP1/WOV/WOE MiG-21 mods.
They are slightly tweaked:
1. Increased transparency for all glass.
2. Removed head-bobbing, which made gunsights too difficult to use.
3. Added preview patches to each skin.
4. Translated the Arabic decals to make lists for selecting the nose numbers.
5. Other files such as flight models and weapons loadouts were omitted.
Omitting the custom flight models and loadouts ensures 100% compliance with the stock game.
This mod allows hosting/joining multiplayer sessions with others using stock installs.
The addon does provide two advantages over pure stock installs: radar and rwr support.
AI MiG-21s already have these systems as they should, so can it be considered cheating?
This mod also ensures that the AI will continue to function as Thirdwire intended.
So, game balance and campaign play in single player are unaffected.
Yet, the MiG-21s are now flyable with appropriate 3d cockpits and avionics.
 
I have included a text file listing real nose numbers from photos.
This list could be used to make the game's nose decals more historically accurate.

place in your talon aircraft folder and enjoy

A second pack of desktop icons for use with Wings Over Vietnam. Nothing too fancy but I tried to be creative. Hopefully folks can get some use out of them.

Tornado "Triple skin pack" comprising the following:
 
2 sqn RAF
15 sqn RAF
31 sqn RAF
 
All in the current lo-viz strike grey colourscheme.
 
Only for the superb TornadoPackage by AD, Sundowner, Florian, Bunyap & Dave.
 
This should work ok in WOE\WOV\WOI\SFG or wherever you have the above aircraft installed.
 
The skin is a rework of an original hi-res by Sundowner with some weathering and tweaking from myself so all credit really goes to Sundowner for the base skins.

YEYEYE

The Panavia Tornado Air Defence Variant was developed by Panavia on RAF specific request for a long range interceptor to replace the aging fleet of Phantom and Lightning. It featured advanced avionics, supersonic speed at all altitudes and the capability of keeping station far from base and for a long period of time.
 
Detailed read me included for further details.

SBD Dauntless, VS-8 USS Hornet, Battle of Midway Skin set - For SF/WoV/WoE WW2 PTO Installs-
This is a skin set representing VS-8 aboard USS Hornet, June 4, 1942 during the Battle of Midway.
Yorktown and Hornet used a slightly different numbering style than Enterprise; having the numbers aft of the fuselage star.
 
It's a standard non-specular blue over gray, with the "modex" or plane-in-group numbers in white. Aircraft type name and BuNum decals are also included.
It's pretty much standard for the time, with the exception of the lettering being aft of the fuselage star
 
-= NOTE: You MUST have the Bunyap Weapons Pak of 6/06 to get the WW2 weapons and guns and such =-
-== This aircraft has been tested in SF/WoV/WoE and post-patch WoI (8/08) as well as post 9/08 & 10/08 SF/WoV/WoE. There still are some 'issues' with prop-plane flight models, but there has been a MARKED improvement!! You use it in these
Post Patch Environments at YOUR own risk ==-
 
*yes, I know that both VB-8 and VS-8 never found the Carrier Striking Force, but hey, why not have the skins for the OTHER attacks they participated in, humm???*
 
Simple, easy to follow instructions in the enclosed readme. You know the drill....
 
Happy Landings!

SBD Dauntless, VB-3 USS Yorktown, Battle of Midway Skin - For SF/WoV/WoE WW2 PTO Installs-
This is a skin set representing VB-3 aboard USS Yorktown, June 4, 1942 during the Battle of Midway.
Yorktown and Hornet used a slightly different numbering style than Enterprise; having the numbers aft of the fuselage star. This may be because a lot of these aircraft were possibly Lexingtion survivors (unlikely), or transfered over from Saratoga as she had returned to Bremerton for repairs.
 
It's a standard non-specular blue over gray, with the "modex" or plane-in-group numbers in black. Aircraft type name and BuNum decals are also included.
It's pretty much standard for the time; it was transitional period just after the ordered removal of the VERY disliked enlarged star w/meatball and the 13 red and white rudder stripes. Due to the extingincies of war, I'd think getting the numbers placed and painted properly was NOT a high-priority item <wink>
 
-= NOTE: You MUST have the Bunyap Weapons Pak of 6/06 to get the WW2 weapons and guns and such =-
-== This aircraft has been tested in SF/WoV/WoE and post-patch WoI (8/08) as well as post 9/08 & 10/08 SF/WoV/WoE. There still are some 'issues' with prop-plane flight models, but there has been a MARKED improvement!! You use it in these Post Patch Environments at YOUR own risk ==-
 
A pretty easy to follow install sequence is in the enclosed read me. It dosen't even need decoding, as it's in plain language, NOT JN-25

For the F-4F/ICE Phantom II in the F-4F Series Pack available HERE.
 
This skin represents the F-4F/ICE Phantom IIs flown by the JG 71 "Richthofen", currently the only (and last) F-4 squadron in the Luftwaffe. Based on Sundowner's excellent JG 74 "Mölders" in the pack.
 
Instructions and notes in the readme.

F4F-4 Wildcat Skin, Generic US Navy, 1942; for SF/WoV/WoE PTO installs
 
This is a somewhat "Generic" skin set for use by US Navy VF (Fighter Squadrons) for the March 1942 - January 1943 timeframe. It represents NO single squadron (hence the "generic" tile) and therefore can be used for any and all Wildcat squadrons as based aboard American aircraft carriers from Midway through the end of the Guadalcanal campaign timeframe, and probably for USMC squadrons as well (albeit with slightly different BuNums...).
 
It's the standard non-specular blue over gray, with stars in all 6 positions. As US carrier fighter squadrons seemed to have gone under an 'expansion' aboard ship; from the usual pre-war 15-18 aircraft, to 24-28 per squadron (ie: at Midway the average was 24), I've supplied individual "plane-in-grope" numbers for 36 aircraft, although only 28 are activated in the numbers.lst. These "modex" numbers are in the as-specified black, although research has indicated some squadrons may have used white (ie: Yorktown at Midway). This will in no way detract from it's usage. Aircraft type name and BuNum decals are also supplied; actual -4 serial numbers - it can probably be safely assumed these WERE used on combat aircraft.

As expected, the usual readme with all the necessary instructions for installation is supplied ... this is a pretty straight-forward skin install, nothing fancy here This time....

SBD Dauntless, VB-6 USS Enterprise, Battle of Midway Skin set, Version 2.0
- For SF/WoV/WoE WW2 PTO Installs- 2/11/08
 
This is a complete and utter replacement/revamp of a skin I released 2005; it has been complete redone using my enhanced template, repainted in the proper Non-specular blue/gray, and has had all new decals of the proper font created. "Plane-in-Group" numbers for 18 aircraft, BuNums and aircraft type name decals have also been made.
 
This is desinged to REPLACE, in it's entirety, that original version. Nothing in there is even worth saving!! If you don't have it, good for you!! It was the very first skin/decal set I'd ever made....

F4F-3 Wildcat Skin, VF-6, USS Enterprise, 12/7/41; for SF/WoV/WoE PTO installs
 
"Pearl Harbor Defenders" - American Fighters
 
This skin represents VF-6 "Shooting Stars" as based aboard USS Enterprise in December, 1941.
 
Decals represent the standard type markings as seen on Naval/Marine aircraft of the time, and include BuNums and aircraft type name on the tail. BuNums are accurate, as they ARE from -3 Wildcats, but my research has not turned up WHICH actual numbers were used on aircraft assigned to VF-6.
 
--NOTE: this mod is designed for use ONLY on the F4F-3 Wildcat mod I released some ago; NOT for the F4F-4. Totally different aircraft-- If you don't have the Update Pak for the -3 Wildcat, you can get it from Combat Ace:
