    3. Raytheon T-6A Texan II V2.0

      This is a mod of Mdelmast's very nice Pilatus PC-9A. I made it in a USAF, and USN training variant, the Raytheon T-6A. I also included the original PC-9A aircraft. The installer will add new squadron lists, and weapondata, so if you have a lot of weapons not in the newest weapon pack (which this one is, and then some!) then back up your file, before installing this one, and add them manually, information is in the readme for that. Same goes for your squadron ini too. I have 475 squadrons(including WW2 ones) so my new file might help!
       
      2 FTS squadrons included in the T-6A. I added selectable tail numbers too, thanks to Mdelmast, and Craigbrierly for their advice with the tail art and numbers.
       
       
       
       
      V2.0 adds the Navy variant, and updates the other textures as well.
       
       
      Thanks goes out most all to Mdelmast for his awesome model!

    4. F-89J (Late) Scorpion

      F-89J (Late) Scropion For SF/WoV/WoE:
       
      This package is a modification of MontyCZ's F-89C into the late-model J (those without wing-tip rocket pods)
      It is a semi-complete package, including everything needed, -excepting the aircraft LOD files. They are NOT included, as I consider it 'wrong' to do so, without permission from the original author. (and it's against CA policy to do so)
       
      Included are all the needed inis necessary to create the new aircraft. 2 skin folders are included, complete with decals, representing the 178th FIS, NDANG 'The Happy Hooligans', and a generic USAF natural metal.
       
      All the skin bmps have been repainted, using new templates created by me, based off Volkjager's original skins. I've duplicated his original work, so all credit goes to him for skin creation...I've basically just redone them to make use of the new panel, rivet lines and new decals created by me for the serial and buzz numbers.
       
      Included also is a brand new Hangar screen for the Late J, only available with this mod. Damage tgas are here as well.
       
      == You MUST have the latest weapons pak installed to make use of the needed missiles ==
       
      PLEASE read the enclosed readme for full, detail install instructions!!!
       
      Happy Hunting, you Hooligans!!!
      Wrench

      (I know, I'm reusing the same screenie, but I just don't get tired of looking at it!! )

    10. Detailed WOV Planning Map (South Vietnam)-Printer Friendly

      I thought that I'd share with you my WOV Planning Map. I've been using it for mission design. It shows the whole of Southern Vietnam, up to and including the Dong Hoi airbase just North of the DMZ.
       
      Each grid is shown, as used in-game to determine an object's position, within the map's range from X=410000 to 850000, and Y=090000 to 580000). I've re-coloured parts of the map to make them easier to see the grid lines and airbases when you print it out - either colour or gray-scale. Test so far show that it comes out neatly on a single side of A4 or Letter-sized paper.
       
      This map is a .jpg file so it's not huge in terms of file size (only ~160k). If people want the .bmp or even the .ppt I used to construct it then please get in touch, as these are much larger files. Thanks.
       
      Regards, comrpnt.

    14. A-4Q CANA Skin update and Ini Pak

      A-4Q Skyhawk - Skin update and ini Package for SF/WoW/WoE
       
      This is a complete package, including a full update of nosecone's Argentine Navy Skyhawk skin, that will recreate the A-4Q Skyhawk as used by the CANA (and/or FAA) during the Falklands War.
       
      What I've done is rebuild the decals ini, added a textureset ini, and completly rebuilded -from scratch- all the needed inis to recreate this aircraft. I've included nosecone's original readme at the bottom of this text file. Therefore, I can and WILL take no credit for the skins and decals. I'm just the ini dancer! Included is also my Argentine Skyhawk Hangar Screen, all set up for use in the main ini.
       
      == You must have the latest Weapons Pak to use the Avionics Humps and Other Weapons. Please see the "Weapons & Loadout Fixes" thread at CombatAce for more, updated weapons for the Argentine Air Forces ==
       
      Please see the enclosed readme for relatively easy install instructions, and some notes of interest.
       
      All credit to nosecone, who did the original skin -- making sure everyone knows that!!

    15. TA-4J VC-8 "Redtails"

      This aircraft depicts a TA-4J of Composite Squadron 8 (VC-8), the Redtails, out of Naval Station Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico, June, 1997. As always, special thanx to Fracture for creating this beautiful aircraft and to Starfighter2 for his help with the making of this skin. Skin is for TA-4J_ADV.
       
       
      The "Redtails" of Composite Squadron Eight (VC-8) were the last U.S. Navy active duty unit to operate the Skyhawk on a regular basis. Flying the TA-4J out of Naval Station Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico, equipped with special electronics gear, VC-8 Skyhawks provided utility missions in support of fleet operations, close air support training for Marine, Army, and Special Force units, and operated in an adversary role in support of the Tomcat and Hornet RAGs and fleet unit training.
      The last USN active duty Skyhawks, flown by this squadron, were retired from active service on 3 May 2003.

    18. MiG-21MF 1024x templates

      MiG-21MF Fishbed-J 1024x Skin template:
       
      These are new templates, based off and resized from the original little itty bity ones as originally issued by 3rd Wire. I call these "semi-HiRez, as they are now resized to 1024x1024...to me HiRez is anything OVER 2048!!
       
      This set is designed to allow you to create new skins, either natural metal or camoflague types. I have NOT plotted out the overlaps for camos, but this can easily be done in you imaging program (Photoshop, Gimp, PSP, etc) by enlarging the camo skin bmps, and adding them as another layer. Repainting should be relatively easy after that.
       
      I've redrawn, as best I can, all the panel, rivet lines, inspection plates, etc. Some of the rivet placement is a 'best guess', as the original size of the bmp was ONLY 256x256, and are badly blurred.
       
      The base skin color is a 10-15% gray, which when adjusted for in the textureset ini, will look like semi-polished natural metal.
       
      (the accompanying screenshot shows this new skin, with the 'Blue Bort' number decals)
       
      Happy Skinning!

    19. Blue Soviet Tactical Number Decals

      Blue Soviet Tactical Numbers - For SF/WoV/WoE 12/11/07
       
      These are simply repaints of the Stock 3rd Wire red SovTac numbers, now in a blue color for the PVO interceptors. Or for whomever else used them :) There are 100 numbers in total.
       
      There were all extracted from the /objects.cat, and then repainted. I've also incluced the 'numbers.lst', which is the same as used by the Red Numbers.
       
      See the enclosed readme for fairly easy to follow instructions

    20. F-89D Scoprion by MontyCZ

      build 03-02-2004 BETA 1
       
      This is the original version of the F-89D, as created by MontyCZ ohh so long ago.

      Monty's original readme is included in the zip.

    21. F-86F-40, 461st FDS, USAFE

      F-86F-40 Sabre, 461st FDS, USAFE skin for SF/WoV/WoE
       
      Just a simple, natural metal skin for Zur's Sabre as used by the 461st Fighter Day Squadron (ex-527th FBS) after the experiment with camoflague ended, and the aircraft were transfered to the new unit. Timeframe is approx 1956-58-ish.
       
      Included are new serial and buzz number decals. The Black Bar/Diamonds is borrowed from USAFMTLs camo version for the 527th. The serial numbers are actual F-86F serials, but I claim no historical accuracy if they were used by this squadron.
       
      See the enclosed readme for super easy install instructions (for a change!)
       
      Happy Landings!

    24. EAF S-52 DragonFfly 1956

      S-51 Dragonfly
      Egyptian Air Force [bilbeis?] 1956
       
      The EAF only ever had one S-51, belonging to the Royal Flight before Nasser came to power. While you may not find this of much use, it was interesting to skin.

    25. EAF C-47 - Suez 1956

      C-47A
      3 Squadron, Egyptian Air Force (Almaza) 1956
       
      I've reworked Gramps' original C-47A skin and applied a set of decals for the Egyptian Air Force during Suez Crisis. The original olive green interior, under-carriage and flaps have been retained - you can't improve on perfection.
