SF2 Vichy French Air Force, Tiger Moth Skin UPgrade
By Wrench
SF2 Vichy French Air Force, Tiger Moth Skin UPgrade 2/25/2020
-- Something for Fun --
= For SF2 Any and All=
A small upgrade for LloydNB's Vichy French Tigermoth, as used in Indochina in the early 1940s. It is, obviously, for use on RussoUK's DH Tigermoth. The aircraft itself is available at the following URL:
https://combatace.com/files/file/14081-sf2-ww2-dh-tigermoth-by-russouk/
This is a very simple mod; just a quickie repaint to remove the original painted on fuselage number, and the addition of 18 "plane-in-squad" numbers. No historical accuracy is claimed, as I've only found one image of the aircraft, and it had the number 5 on it.
As said above, something just for fun!
Enjoy!

Essex Class Measure 32/3A Pattern (Rising Sun/YAP)
By TheWarrior
FIRST THING.
You will need to have the Essex CV LOD. from Rising Sun over at the Yankee Air Pirates site. This skin and future skins I plan to release will not work with out it.
===============================================
TO INSTALL:
unzip to a temp folder or your desktop or somewhere else that's easy to find
In the Essex folder, located in the GroundObject folder, make a copy of the CV9 skin folder and rename it CV9 M32 3A.
Then, simply, copy/paste the provided Essex_Camo folder into you new CV9 skin folder.
You'll probably be asked "OVERWRITE?", just say Yes.
That's it.
----------------------------------------------
Notes:
This is the measure 32/3A pattern applied to the following Essex class carriers, Intrepid, Franklin and Handcock.
The Colors used were Light Gray 5-L, Ocean Gray 5-0 and Dull Black 82
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Credits:
Not sure who but thank you this great ship.
Sources:
Rising Sun from YAP.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have any problems, questions, comments, I can be reached thruogh combat ace forums or PM me at The Warrior.
Art
--------------------------------------------
Legal BS:
This is freeware;(That means you can't make someone pay for it) it CAN be distrubuted if the original readmes and all other pieces of the package remain intact.
Remember to add the names of all contributors, modders, suppliers, ect.
-------------------------------------------
About the skin.
This is a very rough and first attempt at doing skins for ships for me.If you can and want to improve them and add more detail, please do. I have no problem with any one doing that.

Nigerian Air Force Tiger Moth
By Wrench
Nigerian Air Force Tiger Moth skin for SF, WoV, WoE
This is a re-skin of RussoUK's excellent little Tiger Moth into those used (???) by the Nigerian Air Force, in their never ending battle for freedom against the aggressors from it's evil neighbor, Togo
(also reccomended is the weapons modification pak for the Moth available both here at CA and my site)
This little gem stems from the never ending, good natured ribbing amongst many of us that follow El Presedentie-for-Life, Sparkomatic.
I'd actually made, and finished this, over a year ago, and promptly forgot about it.
But with renewed intrest in the Nigerian money-schemes (as posted at C5s), I realized it was time for it's release.
Defend the Honor of our Beloved Country!!

Historical VPAF T-28 Skin (YAP)
By stuntman
THIS PACKAGE DOES NOT INCLUDE LOD FILES AND THE COCKPIT FOLDER.
THESE FILES CAN BE PURCHASED ON THE YANKEEAIRPIRATE WEBPAGE.
YOU SHOULD BUY THIS: http://www.yankeeairpirate.net/FlightSchool.html
IT'S PRETTY GOOD O:-)
ALL FILES INCLUDED ARE STILL THE PROPERTY OF THEIR CREATOR AND LEGAL
OWNER, I.E. YANKEEAIRPIRATE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TO THESE GUYS.
CREDITS GO TO :
-YANKEEAIRPIRATE FOR THE MODEL
-TK FOR THE SIM
-Paulopanz for the VPAF pilots
-Lindr2 for the Soviet Ammo
MOD BY STUNTMAN. This mod should work in both SF - WOV and SF2
NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED.
Background****************************************
From ACIG.org: "Namely, one of the RLAF T-28 pilots at the time – and one described by the US
instructors as the “most aggressive” of all – was Lt. Chert Saibory, a former RTAF-pilot, who
defected to Laos in 1960. Chert initially offered his services to Kong Le, but was turned down.
Remaining in Vientianne, Chert then joined the RLAF - once Gen. Phoumi returned to power - and
flew many combat sorties but was never promoted in rank. For unclear reasons, in September 1963
Chert decided to defect once more and during an airshow that was to be staged over Savannakhet
he flew his T-28 away from the rest of formation – to North Vietnam. Instead of commissioning
him in their air force the North Vietnamese imprisoned Chert: several months later his T-28 was
refurbished and – serialled “963”, in commemoration of the date when it was acquired – became
the first fighter aircraft of the Vietnam People’s Air Force (VPAF)."
http://www.acig.info/CMS/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=237&Itemid=47
Pilots Nguyen Van Ba and Le Tien Phuoc flew it to shoot down a US C-123 over Laos in 1964.
This skin was painted using a single profile as a reference, some artistic license was used for
the rest of the airframe.
This mod features a modded data.ini file, that is using VPAF pilots, and a modded loadout.ini
file, that is using soviet ammo.
Third-party Necessary Files************************
You will need the following items, to make to mod work properly
- VPAFpilot : get it here ---> http://combatace.com/files/file/14303-true-vpaf-part1-base-files/
- Soviet Ammo : get them here ---> http://combatace.com/files/file/11667-soviet-bombs-pack/

2) Copy / Paste the file T-28D-03.LOD and the cockpit folder (not included) from your YAP

0.9 OPEN BETA FOR F-111 CCIP BY JOSEFK
By JosefK
Here is a wad of avionics.ini mods for the SF2 F-111s by @FastCargo. Now granted I recommend @viper63a's F-111 add-ons to graft on top of 'em you can get here: https://combatace.com/files/category/630-f-111/
Basically what I've done is add a CCIP or Continuously Calculated Impact Point to the HUD. The intent is to give you the chance to be a lot more accurate droping Mk 80-series dumb bombs in the F-111. Especially since there is no feedback when bombing from the Weapons System Operator/WSO in SF2.
Now I realize this isn't realistic for the days of the F-111 when there was absolutely NO helmet-mounted display that could project on top of a cockpit like now in 2020 with the Lightning IIs, Flankers, Fulcrums and arguably other front-line jets like the Super Hornet & Typhoon. Frankly from the research I've done most of the F-111 variants with the exception of the D likely never got a CCIP. The fact later models got a PAVE TACK to drop laser-guided bombs was a factor and of course, the F-111 had the Lead Computing Optical Sight that one can't program in SF2. So this copy-paste job of mine could very well be the next best thing with at least a realistic icon big enough to have some decent risk of circular error.
Maybe there is better, hence this being an open beta. I would also like to incorporate terrain following into a bigger avionics upgrade... ;-).

SF2 Cold War Prop and Flogger FM Tweaks
By VonS
Hello SF2 Flyers,
For the post-WW2 prop. high-performance aircraft, several tweaks have been applied to the data inis, ranging from lift values for wings and wing tips to the engine section, prop. rpms, flight control section, gears section, flaps, also empty weight, inertia values, ceilings, engine sounds, rudder reversal effect fix, aileron/elevator/rudder sensitivity and movement, etc., depending on the type tweaked. Tweaks are not as extensive as for my FE2 work - but I've tried to get them into the "90% realistic enough" category for SF2 since these high-performance types are difficult to precision peg to within a km or two of historical stats., in contrast to the slower-moving FE2 types. Also included with this package are my minor data ini tweaks for several Flogger types, such as the MiG-23 S, early M, ML, P, MLA, late variant "98," and export variants MF and MS.
Many thanks to the original FM modders for the late prop. types, including Baffmeister, Wrench, Cocas, MontyCZ, Charles of A-Team, Coupi, Paolopanz, and others I may not have mentioned here. The data inis are for SF2 installs only, tested at hard FM settings (no guarantees that the AI can land them nicely, although they fly them just fine). The Me109 G5 and H0 are variants on the stock G10 package provided on CombatAce (to install simply copy the relevant aircraft folders, rename as per my included folders, and drop in the relevant files). P-47 Sprint upgrades are variants on the ETO P-47D Bubbletop model and PTO P-47D Razorback model. Also included with this package are three sounds for a Pratt-Whitney, Centaurus, and Me109 either Benz or Hisso powered (sound works good for both). Links to the relevant aircraft that correspond with these data ini tweaks are located in the included "Read Me" file with the package. Please go through the Read Me for more thorough info. regarding these FM tweaks.
Version 1.2 of this package includes the P-47N and improves the data inis for the other Jug and Superbolt variants.
Happy flying,
Von S

SF2 (1937 - 1941) Prop FM Tweaks
