    1. GermanyCE Terrain Mod Combo INI files

      Readme for combining Gepard's 8 New Airfields and JSF_Aggie's Highway Airfields mods.
       
      These files are simply replacements for your GERMANYCE_TARGETS.INI and GERMANYCE_TYPES.INI files.
       
      What you will need first:
       
      Wings Over Europe with the GermanyCE terrain (Duh!)
       
      Gepard's 8 New Airbases for WOE:
       
      http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...p;showfile=5078
       
      JSF_Aggie's Highway Airfield Mod:
       
      http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...p;showfile=2950
       
      Instructions:
       
      1. Backup your GERMANYCE_TARGETS.INI and GERMANYCE_TYPES.INI files first (if they have been extracted)!
      2. Install both mods...don't worry about overwrites, we'll be fixing those later.
      3. Copy the GERMANYCE_TARGETS.INI and GERMANYCE_TYPES.INI files from this archive into the "WOE"/Terrain/GermanyCE directory. Allow the overwrites.
      4. That's it!
       
      As a bonus, I've included several areas you can use to base carriers out of.
       
      These files should work with other mods of the WOE terrain (Deuces or JSF_Aggie's tree mods, etc).
       
      However, they will erase any mods that have already altered the GERMANYCE_TARGETS.INI and GERMANYCE_TYPES.INI files.
       
      Enjoy your new airfields. Big thanks to Gepard and JSF_Aggie for giving me permission to combine their airfield inis...all the work was theirs, I just wanted them both at the same time!

    6. Improved Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) and Rack

      Readme for the Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) for SFP1/WOV/WOE
       
      Version 1.0
       
      Thanks to the following folks:
       
      TK - For the ThirdWire series of sims.
      Bunyap and Wpnssgt - For the original Weapons Pack.
      Mustang - For the great video tutorials.
      To my fellow Combatace moderators - For helping me beta test and work out bugs.
      Any errors or mistakes are entirely mine.
       
      What you will need first:
       
      Bunyap's Weapon's Pack - http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...p;showfile=2672
       
      Thirdwire Weapons Editor - http://www.thirdwire.com/downloads_tools.htm
       
      Copy of SFP1/WOE/WOV patched to the latest standard (as of 10 Jan 08)
       
      Notes and limitations:
       
      I have included the reference materials I used to make the weapons. And for advanced modelers, I have also included the skin templates if you want to make your own or improve on mine.
       
      Aircraft weapons stations must have EOGR,TLR to be able to carry the SDB and use the BRU-61 rack.
       
      The GBU-40 (SDB II) is a improved model that has an infrared sensor to help attack mobile targets. Also, it has a proposed terminal phase booster to maximize kinetic penetration. This booster will not engage until 1 minute after drop. So, if you want it...you gotta get some range first.
       
      Paint schemes are approximations. The SDB has a LOT of different varients in schemes, so I went with the most reasonable. Early SDBs were orange for test, but more modern versions are gray variants.
       
      For multi-pack carry, if the TW engine finds a multi-rack that is listed eariler in the Weapondata.ini that can carry the missile, it will use that rack instead. You WILL HAVE to fiddle with your loadout.ini files to get it to use the right rack.
       
      This is FREEWARE only, NO money is allowed to be made on the contents of these files, in whole or in part.
       
      Feel free to redistribute, as long as the original authors are given appropriate credit.

    19. Gulf of Sidra incident

      Gulf of Sidra incident between 2 USN F-14's and 2 Libyan Mig-23's on 4 Jan 1989.
       
      MENU
       
      A. DESCRIPTION
      B. REQUIRED FILES
      C. MISSION BRIEFINGS
       
      A. DESCRIPTION:
       
      This is a set of missions replicating the Gulf of Sidra incident on 4 Jan, 1989, between 2 F-14's from VF-32 and 2 Mig-23's of the Libyan AF.
       
      I've built these missions to replicate the incident to the best of my recollection of the events that morning. Some of the ship locations, particularly the USS Belknap, are repositioned from their actual locations for reasons which I will decline to discuss, but are included as general background as are some additional aircraft included on general air routes and carrier based support missions.
       
      Rules of Engagement (ROE) in effect the morning of the incident are included in very general terms here. Follow these to make a challenging and realistic replication of that morning. Wartime ROE is NOT in effect and the ROE does not allow a pre-emptive attack. You are not required to wait for the bogeys to fire first but you can engage if the bogeys manuever aggressively in an attempt to obtain a firing position. Remember that the Mig-23 does have a forward quarter head-on capability! Attempt to intercept and escort but if the bogeys manuever to obtain a firing solution you are cleared to engage.
       
      The missions should be copied into your Strike Fighters/Missions folder. The Mig-23 Loadout, aircraft data and avionics updates should be copied directly into the Mig-23MS folder and overwrite the existing files (after you backup the originals!).
       
      B. REQUIRED FILES:
       
      WHAT YOU'LL ALSO NEED to run the missions are:
       
      1. The Mirage Factory F-14A
       
      2. VF-32 skin for the F-14A
       
      3. Mig-23MS (updated loadout, aircraft data and avionics files are included in this mission pack to provide realistic loadout and radar capability. The radar range settings have been adjusted to include a longer range selection, but the radar performance has not which will give a fairly realistic performance.)
       
      4. A310z *
       
      5. AN-12 *
       
      6. E-2C *
       
      7. KA-6D
       
      8 A-6E_TRAM
       
      9 CVA-63 (representing CV-67 JFK)
       
      10. Spruance *
       
      10.b. OH Perry *
       
      11. CGN-9 * (representing CG-26, Belknap, 6th Fleet Flagship)
       
      12. Libyan Koni *
       
      13. The Libya Terrain by USAFMTL (note: I've generated each of the Libyan aircraft airborne both to keep the mission elapsed time down and because the terrain version (1.4) that I used to develop these missions has a problem with the Libyan airbases that prevents launch and recovery. On missions 3 and 4 don't try to land - if you happen to make it back).
       
      * not required for the missions but provide realistic background of carrier air operations in the Med.
       
      All of the above are available from this site, and contain their own installation documents.
       
      C. MISSION BRIEFINGS:
       
      Gulf of Sidra 1 and 2. Launch from the carrier and proceed to tank from Texaco. The E-2 is conducting airborne early warning and support ships for surveillance are on station. The A-6's are on a practice route over the Greek islands as you proceed and you should monitor their departure. When bogey's are called conduct a radar search. If the bogeys are closing vector to intercept and escort. ROE requires they take hostile action before you can engage. (one of these missions will be a benign intercept and escort and one will involve an engagement in close as it occured.) Return to the ship after the bogeys are outbound/splashed.
       
      Note: if you escort without an engagement the sim will record a mission failure - but you can record a personal mission success as a thousand such missions were flown successfully without hostilities during the years of armed standoff and occasional conflict between Libya and the US.
      Gulf of Sidra 3 is flown from the Libyan perspective. Vector to investigate the infidel violators of our sacred airspace! Sweep the skies of the invading crusaders and return to the glory of your country!
       
      Gulf of Sidra 4 is flown from the Libyan perspective. Vector to investigate the contacts to the north. Do not engage unless fired on, and return to report the infidel operations.
       
      Final note. The Gulf of Sidra event was an unplanned event, and from the USN perspective an unprovoked attack against a defensive CAP positioned to defend the carrier force during a routine transit of the Med. To this day, no one knows why the Libyan pilots manuevered as they did. It should be remembered that two very brave men, wearing uniforms and flying for their country, did not return that morning. All of the USN aircrews returned safely.
       
      Any questions give me a shout on PM.
       
      Typhoid
      Battle Watch Captain and Tactical Action Officer, 6th Fleet Staff, embarked in USS Belknap on 4 Jan, 1989.

    21. Mi-24 Yemen

      Strike Fighters/Wings Over Vietnam/Wings Over Europe etc Mi-24 skins readme
       
      All credit for these skins goes to their creators as detailed below. All I've done is to re-format them for SF\WOV\WOE and add a textureSet to each skin.
       
      Not all of the countries for which we have skins are included in the standard NATIONS.ini list, so I've left those as Soviet. It doesn't make any difference to the skins' appearance as there are no decals to worry about. If you have the New Nations mod that includes these missing countries then feel free to modify the relevant TextureSet.
       
       
      All you need to do is to extract the skin to your Objects\Aircraft\Mi-24 folder, then go fly and blow up some stuff.
       
       
      Thanks must go to the A Team for making the Mi-24 for SF\WOV\WOE, Tim Conrad for the original Mi-24V, and of course TK for giving us these great sims to play with.
       
      This skin is based on Mike Pearson's textures and converted with his kind permission.
       
      Enjoy, and good hunting

      ps You can use these skins in any mods, campaigns etc, but please name check me and the original skinners in your credits as a courtesy. Thanks
