Strike Fighters by Thirdwire

MiG-29G Fulcrum A
Version 1.1
March 2008
 
Changed weaponloadout, FM and some other small things. Control surfaces fixed. Light`s fixed. Hope you like it!
This is modification of the Su-27 pit, it`s repainted and used as a Mig-29 pit. I added Navlights and landinglights to the
plane. Included are 2 BMP`s for everyone who want`s to have a stripe in the pit. This plane is tested only in WOE/WOV.
If you want to improve it, feel free to do it. It`s not allowed to use this bird as PAYWARE!!!
It`s FREEWARE only!

If you want to have it without stripe in your pit, extract the "cockpit" zip into your MiG-29G cockpitfolder and overwtite
the files.

This is from the Su-27 readme:
 
About the cockpit: A great work was made by Moonjumper to model russian avionics. It's the
best that could be done at the moment.
Concerning the radar, The SU-27 has a radar display which projects onto the HUD. It is not
possible to model this for now due to the game engine limitation ;).

Alternative mainscreen for Wings over Israel
1680x1050 Widescreen Edition
(includes template)
 
TO INSTALL MAINSCREEN
(1) extract all files
(2) copy the files in the \MENU folder to the \MENU folder in your Wings over Israel folder
 
TEMPLATE
The \TEMPLATE folder contains a file named mainscreen_template.png, which you can use to make your own mainscreens compatible with the .INI file in this package. This allows you to change the main image easily. Open the .png file in a image editing program capable of using layers and simply place your image in a layer below the .png image. It will show through the transparent centre area. Save as mainscreen.bmp (format: 24bit bitmap file).
 
Also included is a .png file with the WOI logo used in the file, a template file without the menu text, and the menu in normal and active state.
 
When resizing for a different resolution, in MENUSYSTEM.INI, change the lines indicated below to the desired resolution.
 
[MenuSystem]
StartMenu=MainScreen
Width=1680 <====
Height=1050 <====
ColorDepth=16
TextFilename=MenuText.str
TimeDateTextFilename=TimeDate.str
MenuDataFilename=
FadeTime=0.25
WaitMouseCursor=WaitAnimation
 
Note that you will have to change the position of the menu buttons in MAINSCREEN.INI to account for their changed location.

F-110A "Wraith" Mod Pak for SF/WoV/WoE
 
A "What If..." Cold War Aircraft
 
First of all, I have to extend a great deal of thanks to BadFrank from the CombatAce message boards, as this entire thing was his idea!! He's also the person that found the mesh names for the rear canopy for me to get the decal on (it's also his decal, I just repainted it).
 
What we have here is a mod of the F-4B creating a single-seat version of the Phantom. This version is designed for US Air Force use, as a long-range missile armed interceptor, along the lines of the F-102, F-106 and even it's older brother, the F-101A Voodoo. This aircraft has NO air-to-ground capabilities, in keeping with it's role as a continential air defense interceptor.
A gun pod (SUU-16) can be loaded as they become available (later service year dates)
 
All items used, excepting the new weapons, are stock 3rd Wire, and are readily available in each of the varying versions of the game. It makes use of stock, albeit renamed skin files, some of which have been repainted by me. I've included them in the package, as it's easier than having the end user transfer and rename files. And again, as they're all stock items, they exist in all versions of the game. As should all the serial decals as well.
 
You'll be adding a couple of new 'weapons', a modified Scooter hump and a rebuild of my 'hack job' F-104 Recon Pod, now modified/renamed/tweeked for use on the Phantom.
 
Full, detailed instrustions on all facets of installation are in the enclosed readme, along with full credits for folks who helped out. -- so PLEASE read the cursed thing!!! It'll make your life easier, I promise you!
 
Enjoy!

This is a major update and extension of my "Enhanced Explosions" effects pack.
 
If you've been using original Enhanced Explosions, you know what to expect -Hollywood style cinematic explosions, created to give TK's sims
a blast. Also I still enjoy old "Jane's ATF" very much, and I missed some of it's spectacular fire in the sky lately.
 
New stuff included is mostly about ground strikes and various air2ground weapons effects.

Yes folks, the F-4ES and the RF-4E for Wings Over Israel by the Mirage Factory

Modern Range and Red Range Targets Upgrade
 
This little package will update the Modern Range and Red Range with the addition of more target areas, a new movement ini for practice Armed Recon missions, and general tweeks to some of the destroyed effects. Somehow, it seems to have either gotten lost, or somebody never did upload it......
 
Included is the Factory Place, Truck Depot, and the Rail Yard. The 'ship target', as seen in my WW2 upgrades, has been switched over to use the stock 'Cargo Ship'.
 
Remember -- as there is no ocean on this map, there are NO anti-shipping missions. Also remember, since there are 2 Ranges (one for each side), you =CANNOT= fly a Western/US/NATO aircraft on the Red Range. Just as you =CANNOT= fly a Soviet/WarPac or other 'enemy' classed aircraft on the Range. The game engine WILL crash out with a 'singlemission.dll' fault. So, make sure you have BOTH terrains installed.
 
This mod works in SF, WoV, WoE. It -should- work in WoI with the correct terrain cat pointer; this has NOT been tested, and is at present NOT supported.
 
Please see the enclosed readme for relatively simple install instructions.
 
Happy Practicing!!!

This is the M270 MLRS used by many countries since the 1980's to present date .

This is the double seater version of the A-7E Corsair.
Please make use of the README file!
 
Enjoy it!

Strike Fighters Briefing Pack Readme
 
For some reason the creators of many of the third party terrains that have been released have omitted to include a briefing.ini file with the terrain or have included a blank document. What this means is that when you click on the briefing tab in the mission setup area you will get a black screen and a CTD, which kind of ruins the atmosphere when you're getting pumped up to go out there to defend the free world against the rampaging communist/Nazi etc hordes.
 
Here is a collection of briefing.ini files for most of the terrains out there that have this problem with what I hope is some appropriate text to get you in the mood for your mission. Feel free to edit them to suit your needs.
 
I've also included English briefing.ini files for Gepard's Israel and Suez terrains as the originals are in German.
 
List of briefings included:
 
AE - Madagascar terrain
AmericaNW - American North West terrain
ANWgreen - American North West terrain (Green)
ANWwinter - American North West terrain (Winter)
DS - Desert Storm terrain
IR - Iran Iraq terrain
Israel 2 - Israel v2 terrain
Israel - Israel terrain
Kosovo - Kosovo terrain
libya - Libya terrain
LibyaWW2 - WW2 Libya terrain
Malvinas - Malvinas terrain
mideast - Middle East terrain
scal - Southern California (Top Gun) terrain
SE - South East USA terrain
Suez - Suez terrain
SW - South West USA (Red Flag) terrain
tiawan - Taiwan terrain (the USAFMTL version)
 
Ibstallation is simple - just extract the briefing you want to the appropriate terrain's folder, which you will already have installed within your Strike Fighters, WOV or WOE Terrain folder. The only other thing you may need to do is to check inside the individual terrain's folder in the .ini file to make sure that the line
 
BriefingText=
 
includes the name of the briefing.ini file. For example, in my Kosovo terrain folder the kosovo.ini file contains the line
 
BriefingText=Kosovo_briefing.INI
 
The only terrains that I know you will have to edit are USAFMTL's mideast terrain (which points to the original desert_briefing.ini) and Wrench's WW2Libya (which points to the libya_briefing.ini). All of the rest should work just fine.
 
Thanks to TK for SF, WOV, WOE, FE and who knows what else, and of course to the creators of all of these fine terrains for enhancing this great game of ours.
 
Have fun, and good hunting...

Any problems, find me at combatace.com, simhq.com or column5.us

This is a railway station for DRVv1.4.
Should also run with WoV.

This is the Korat airbase made by Armourdave of the original Vietnam team. All hounor belongs to him, not to me. He gave me the permission to include Korat AB into my DRV terrain and i want to say thank you for it. The base is a nearly 100% copy of the big US base during the vietnam war. And it looks very excellent.
The only weak point is, that you cant destroy single objects of the base, but, i think this is no real problem, because the US bases in Vietnam war were never attacked by vietnamese airforce.

A replacement for SF's default
unpaved desert airfield. Works well with Deuces Euro Terrain mod.

Modification of USAFMTL's Libya map into a WW2 Theatre. Designed for a SF/WoV EAW intall ONLY!! You'll need many WW2 objects; some are packaged, some are not. READ THE README!

Upgrade to concrete , metal runways, runway signs and taxieways for SF:P1 /WoV.

Graphic texture upgrade to SF:P1/WoV runways, taxiways and signs.

WoE Trees by Deuces
 



These are actually the VietnamSEA .TOD files created by Deuces for Wings over Vietnam. At his suggestion, I've renamed them as per the WoE GermanyCE naming convention, and have been using them in WoE with no apparent issues.
 

 
To install: Simply extract the enclosed GermanyCE folder into your Wings over Europe/Terrain folder and accept when asked (or warned) if you wish to overwrite the existing files in that folder (which it actually won't).

This is a mod for Wings Over Europe's GermanyCE Terrain, that includes a new tree texture, as well as new .tod's for almost every terrain tile. The .tod files contain positioning information for trees and objects for each terrain tile type. This mod will give you a much larger amount of trees to look at, as well as a higher res tree texture.
 
Please read the README.

This provides high resolution textures for the 4 stock concrete runways in
SFP1, WOV, and WOE.
 
Each airfield will have unique textures for the runway and taxiway.

If you want the fastest way to go between the two terrains then DL this and follow the install notes. You can then switch between the two with the flick of a button. (1/13/07)

Charles City and Sea repaint.
 
This tileset based on an idea of Charles Gunst who mentioned, that the cities in europe are more gray instead brown. He send me a gray repaint of the city tiles and a darker sea tileset. I made some refinement work and now it is ready for release.
Thanks for the idea and to good cooperation, Charles.

WW2 Axis Bombing Red Range for SF, WoV & WoE
 
This is a modification of several inis, and adding objects to give The Red Range a World War 2 flavor, for the Axis Powers.
This modificaton has been thoughly tested in SF and WoE, but not WoV. You shouldn't have any problems though, by making sure you 'cat file' pointer is pointed to the correct terrain cat. (see the Knowledge Base here at CA, or the newest Range readmes)
 
Many of these WW2 items have been borrowed from other maps, most specificlly Edwards superb PTO and EuroWW2. Others were scattered about, like the train station and factory place.
I'd like to express thanks to the Map Builders for their tireless work, hope I mentioned everyone!!!
 
You'll need the original Red Range installed to make this mod to, as the terrain iteself is not changed. This is an object and ini mod, not a full terrain. You'll also have a NEW movements ini; now you can perform Armed Recon missions.
 
PLEASE read the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions as to how to install. Although this mod can be used in any install, it is designed with WW2 =ONLY= in mind. Most of these mods, however, can easily be added to any other Range terrain (specifically, the movements ini and the new target areas).
 
= NOTE: one of the 3 new objects is a Nazi flag. If you live in a country where it is illeagle to show the swastika, you can change the pointer in the targets.ini to remove or switch flags. To this end, I've provided an alternative flag. It has already been added to the types ini, so all you need to change is the targets pointer, see full instructions in the readme.
 
Now, no excuses... get out there and practice!! With thanks to Deuces for creating the Range and Red Range, and to Major Lee for pointing the way for the flags. and all the other terrain and object builders!
 
Happy Hunting!
