USN/USMC low visibility tactical color schemes Paintshop - GB 3-7-2012
 
All USN/USMC low visibility tactical color schemes are now put in a single archive for sharing at combatace.
All due credit to the original model and skin creators:
Third Wire (A-4M,A-7E,F-4J,F-14A_77)
Mirage Factory + BPAo + Flying Toaster (F-14A+B,F-4S,FA-18A)
Mostly I just made masks and converted colors which took enough time as it was already.
 
Work In Progress Release:
Beware that in the past the max resolution I worked with was 512x512 per skin, and lower res decals.
Beware that I was sometimes to lazy to make the correct seperation from light grey to medium grey.
Leaving the seperation where the old Gull grey used to fade to white.
 
Photoshop 60 Conversion.atn contains the following automated actions for color conversion:
-F-14 grey Med (convert to Medium grey, from gull grey as used by third wire)
-F-14 to grey light (convert to Medium grey first)
-F-14 to grey dark (convert to Medium grey first)
 
US Navy/Marine Low visiblity colors:
Dark: FS 35237 used as anti glare, or topside F-4S
Medium: FS 36320 (RGB 157,164,176) top A-4,A-6,A-7,F-14,F/A-18, side F-4S
Light: FS 36375 (RGB 171,176,184) bottom A-4,A-6,A-7,F-14,F/A-18,F-4S
The Medium and Light RGB values were obtained by taking average color values from photographs on the net.

this addon is for the NF-5A and adds the Chaff and Flare dispenser to the tail section

488 Squadron, RNZAF, Hurricane IIB Skin, for SF/WoV/WoE PTO installs ONLY
 
New skin for the Dev A-Team's Hawker Hurrican IIB.
 
This is just a little something I've had laying around for a lloooong time, and never got around to finishing. After looking at the skin bmp itself, I decieded to re-do the entire thing. So, you've got new panel & rivet lines, new scuffing and wear, and I tried to get some 'dirt' along the underside.
 
Speaking of the number decals, I don't know exactly (other than BM899) if these aircraft were actually used in the defense of Singapore, and during the retreat to Sumatra. I've also given you 12 serial numbers, although historically, only 9 Hurricanes were assigned to 488, before they were either destroyed by enemy action, or by their crews to prevent capture
 
Just something for use in those early, dark days of WW2 in the Pacific....
 
Please see the enclosed readme for more information and Install instructions
 
Happy Landings!

This are 3 skins for Paskos MiG-15bis and are basing on the original skins of Pasko.
They represent 3 soviet Fighter Divisions who operated in 1951 over the MiG-Alley. In 1951 all MiG-15 units painted their MiG-15 with red high visibility markings to avoid misidentifications with F-86 Sabre. The markings of the units were different. All common was the red nose,but the size of the red area was different. Also the paintings on the tail were different. Some units had, other had not red tails.
The bord numbers were first 4 digit , later 3 digit. The color of the bord number was black, but also blue and red numbers were seen over Korea.
I used the black in this package, but if you want to have red numbers, feel free to change it.
The Units:
The 151. IAD fought only 4 weeks in February, lost 6 MiG's and shot down 36 US planes.
The 324.IAD was commanded by Col. Iwan Koshedub. Fough from March 1951 to January 1952. Lost 24 MiG's and shot down 215 enemy planes. Top ace was Jewgeni Pepeljajew with 19 Kills (16 confirmend by US sources).
303.IAD fought from April 1951 to February 1952. It was commanded by Col. Lobow. Top ace was Nikolai Sutjagin with 21 kills (14 confirmend by US sources). The 303.IAD shot down 302 enemy planes and lost 49 MiG-15.

This is my first skin. Using Bassman's Low Rez Templates, there will be a High Rez version later.

F-100A "Rehab"
 
This is an F-100A brought to D standards. i.e. AN/APR-26(v)/AN/APS-54 tail-warning radar rearward radar warning antenna.(You will have a audible only RWR in the pit) GAR-8/AIM-9B capability. However it still lacked flaps and the refuel probe of the D model.
 
Skins JSF Aggie based on Boscoe's old work from 4 years ago. Original high res temps by Sundonwer. Thanks for the assist Brian. Had more Hun's to skin than I could keep up with. Thanks to Ant for the excellent temps. Thanks to Sag and MJ for the know how to remove the probe, fix the flaps and the RWR. I did a lot of updating the ini to A standards. And finally you cant have a Hun without Galanti's pit. Drop into you aircraft folder and go fly.
 
She flies like a wet noddle. But hey, its an A model.
 
Skins are 2048x2048, not for wimpy crates.
 
 
Version 1.1
Updated ini's by MJ and starfighter. With wing fences removed, LAU-105 pylons used to hold the Winders. FM tweaks. A much more complete Taiwan F-100A Rehab. Thanks you two for your help.

<< "I spotted an afterburner plume at twenty miles." >>
 
This is the only quote I recall from a Vietnam War air combat book I read back in hi~school and I forgot the title and author. The author spotted the afterburner at night, against the stars if I recall, and said it was a MiG-21. They (F-4 crew) locked it up and downed it with a Sparrow.
 
The VOLCANO MOD attempts to address, or bring attention to, a long missing feature in all combat jetsims: long distance visibility of afterburners especially at night. To do this, we oversize the afterburners as the sim, along with every jetsim it seems, does not model the brightness intensity of afterburner plumes. The same philosophy was used in sizing the recent 3D Rocket Exhaust effects, making larger flame plumes optional for missiles on a sliding scale of selectable effects sizes.
 
With the smaller of two oversized afterburner systems here, I can just see a MiG-21's pixel sized R-13 afterburner flickering from a little over 20 miles using 30 degree field of view (FOV) and 1280x1024 screen resolution. I believe that higher resolution would allow longer visible distance for any given FOV. The full size screenshot shows very late twilight F-106 AI squadron takeoff to the South, using the smaller size afterburner system. The yellow arrows point to aircraft in full afterburner following the AI leader.
 
The VOLCANO MOD uses specific engine names in aircraft DATA files. Any engine afterburner can be done at any time with a simple calculation. A list of engines currently modelled here and simple formulae for calculating their afterburner data are in the instruction file. These are some of the engines that will be of use in a mythological strategic strike/intercept campaign (Siberian Sky), and include engines that were used, or could be used, by Strategic Air Command (SAC) and manned Soviet Air Defense (IA-PVO) from the 1940s to the 1960s.
 
ThirdWire thread discussing grafix for classical era strategic air warfare: Volcanos erupt on page 3 ~> http://bbs.thirdwire.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=4964
 
"VOLCANO" was a name used by one or two of our Old Timer SF simmers some time ago who poked fun at an early experimental closeup cameo screenshot that I poasted (it looked pretty bad). The name stuck.
 
 
v1.01--------------------------------------
*** ADDED TO INSTRUCTION FILE, but the replacement Zip file does not seem to upload here. So...
 
Grafix position of the afterburner may need to be changed to taste. This is done by changing the vector ExhaustPosition=[x,y,z], where...
-x is left, x is right.
-y is back, y is forward.
-z is down, z is up.
The numbers are in meters. I prefer the burner flame as close to the nozzle as possible, but without interacting to cause flickering of nozzle/flame.
--------------------------------------

This is a model that may be using as terrain building or targetable ground unit , how do you prefer. For Strike Fighters P1 designed.
Let me know about any errors.

Replacement Euro Green 170 gallon F-104G wing-tip drop tanks.
 
This little package is designed to eliminate the 'upside/sideways/backwards/or whatever is wrong with the "Tank_F104G" that we've all been experiencing.
 
Using a repainted bmp, and the stock 3rd Wire 104G tank lods, this should correct the problem of having the fins pointed in the right direction
The only problem that still exists, is that I haven't been able to quite figure out the bmp mapping to have the '2 tone', euro green upper and neutral gray unders. To that end, I've enclosed a PhotoShop psd template, that I created, so someone with a little more skill at that can finish it perfectly.
 
This will update the latest Weapons Pak, circa 6/2006
 
These tanks can be used on BOTH the stock 3rd Wire F-104G, and the one build by Ajundair. Designed for use with German, Italian or Dutch Euro camo schemes.
 
Full, detailed instructions in the enclosed readme -- PLEASE read and follow them, as you'll be using the weapons editor.
 
Safe Flying!

VMA(AW)-242 repaint for the Razbam A-6A (white radomes)
 
This is part two of my VMA(AW)-242 decals, and the base model is again the recently released A-6 Intruder by Razbam. Just drop the folder into the A-6A folder and go fly. Most aircraft had black radomes early in the unit's history at Da Nang, but many later aircraft were seen with off-white radomes. It will not work with the original WOV A-6A or the add-on created by Monty CZ.
 
A working decal system is provided for anyone creating new markings for the plane.
 
Enjoy,

Wings over Europe Air Defense Mod version 0.1
-------------------------------------------------------
This modification adds HAWK SAM batteries to the NATO defenses. It is intended for use in the excellent NATO Fighters Campaign or with the standard campaigns with the outstanding July 2006 Weapons Pack. If you don't have one of these this modifications installed it will not work. Works with single user-created missions and campaigns.
 
This modification includes work by Pasko, Fubar512, and Wrench. I appreciate their work and thank them for permission to include it.
 
Please refer to the README.txt file enclosed for installation instructions.

By request
 
I will upload the ini's I changed to make a Danish Draken with an extra gun and 4 more hardpoints, this is just the ini's and I have planned for releasing a complete aircraft later without lods.
 
You will be needing the J-35F and the Danish skin for the Draken availlible here at the download section.
 
Have fun
