KM Graf Zeppelin Aircraft Carrier
For SF/WoV/WoE WW2: ETO/SWOTL Installs
 
A definate "What If..." style of ship, based off Hinchbrook's HMS Eagle
(and yes, I know the after deck was fully enclosed, as was the bow - it's the best, closest fit we have)
As a WARSHIP, it probably (and hopefully) won't show up in single, anti-ship missions, but can be used in single missions created with the Kreelins Mission Editor or La Missionuer (sp?)
 
With many thinks the Hinch for allowing me to mod his faux-Eagle into something 'passable' for the Krieg Marine.
 
Simply put, this is mostly for fun. So, enjoy it! :)

IAF Type 96B Fishbed C Update ver 2.0
 
Based on the original mod by Bob 'howling1' Hauser. Skins by Ghostrider883
 
What I've basically done, is 'rearrange' things to use the latest, Patch 4 versions of the 21MF lod, and 21MF data ini.
 
== This package is designed to be used ONLY with the latest weapons pak!!! ==
== This package is also set to use the Magoo/Badger Mig-21MF cockpit - make sure you have it installed. ==
 
The loadouts have been set for Indian weapons; several of which might be new. Please check the 'Loadout Fixes' Thread at the CombatAce Knowledge Base for any further details. (and I've listed them in the enclosed 'readme' as well, plus a new one)
 
Weapons carraige has been updated to reflect the use of some 'stand-off' style A-G missiles.
 
I've NOT included any of the skins, as these were done by ghostrider883, but I've updated the decal ini for the "7Sq" skin. The skin bmps themselves fit fine, and need no updating (which is good, as I didn't really want to get into that!).
 
PLEASE!!! (must I beg?) read the enclosed readme for detailed install instructions -- ya'll sensing a pattern here???
 
With thanks to the original modders/skinners that brought the Sub-Continet to our gaming world!!
 
Good Hunting!

ps: just in case anyone is interested, I've updated all the Pakistani MiG-21/J/F-7s as well, but they need to use pre-patch lods, which at the moment cannot be uploaded. I'm trying to figure out a work around...

It should be noted at this time, 2 other skins by Ghostrider883, the "4Ag" and "15_YT" need NO updating. All the decals and skin bmps work just fine with the later lods. Sometimes one actually gets lucky..... If there are other skins for this aircraft, please compare the decal ins and skin bmps to MAKE SURE they'll fit the newer lod.
 
You'll also be using the weapons editor to add several weapons (mostly a new HAL Mig-21 Reco Pop), but double check your weaponsdata ini that the latest versions of the HAL missiles and twin IRM racks are installed.
 
PLEASE!!! read the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions...

Just messing around in photoshop. I think it gives an oldfashioned
feal to WOE Menus. Great for a WWII full install. All the buttons
should be included. Just unzip into the Menu folder and go. Enjoy!

This script outputs to a text file from MAX the min/maxExtentPosition for all of a models nodes
The min / max extents are calculated on the bounding box of the node so YMMV if you have very irregular nodes (some hand tuning)
Obviously this is only of use to people with the max file models…
 
The output looks like this
 

------------------------------ Fuselage MinExtentPosition=-0.42,-1.127,-0.86 MaxExtentPosition=0.42,2.63,0.778 Cockpit MinExtentPosition=-0.42,0.38,-0.727 MaxExtentPosition=0.42,2.484,0.173 Radiator MinExtentPosition=-0.506,-0.535,-0.063 MaxExtentPosition=0.506,0.495,0.935 ---------etc etc

PAF F-7P Skybolt Update ver 2.0
 
Based on the original mod by Bob 'howling1' Hauser, who's original readme is included at the bottom of the document
 
What I've basically done, is 'rearrange' things to use the latest, patch 4 versions of the 21F lod, and 21F data ini. There still exists the problems aforementioned with the outer pylon not existing, so any and all weapons mounted there will be hanging in the slipstream. It's just something we have to live with until such time as someone releases the F/J-7 series with all 4 wing pylons
 
== This package is designed to be used ONLY with the latest weapons pak!!! ==

Hawker Hunter FGA 60 Mod for WoE Mid East Installs ONLY!!
 
Another "What If..." aircraft for you alternate history enjoyment!
This is a ini and skin mod for the stock Hunter FGA 9 that comes with WoE. It creates a new aircraft, for use by the Israeli Defense Forces Air Force.
 
It's suggested that you use this in a seperate Mid-East (Arab vs Isrealis) WoE install; this is how I have it. It will work much better in a seperate install.
 
It IS required that you have the latest weapons pak installed to get the maximum use out of the available weapons capabilities.
 
== REMEMBER: This mod is for use in WOE -ONLY!!!- as all the parts ONLY exist there ==
 
You'll find all the inis, bmps, tgas, whathave you for this install. The data ini has had the NationName= set to "ISRAEL", so when you fly you'll get Israeli medals, and have Israeli flightmates. In other words, this is a semi-complete aircraft, missing only the lod files (which cannot be uploaded or shared as they are core files-which makes this WoE ONLY). You get a new hangar screen, the damage tgas and everything else needed!
 
== REMEMBER: this is NOT a full aircraft, and you MUST have Wings Over Europe to make use of this aircraft mod. ==
 
You'll also have 2 skin folders; IDF and IDF2 representing the 2 different eras the aircraft operated in. The first is the blue/tan camo for the 50s and early 60s, and the 3 tone for use in the 70s and 80s.
The 3 tone skin represents aircraft from the Advanced Fighter School, and were used for training purposes (although some may have been used in the ground support role during the 73 War, alongside the remaining Sabre 6s <wink>)
 
Please read the enclose readme for full install instructions -you're creating a NEW aircraft-, and other important notes.
REMEMBER: This is for WoE ONLY, and requires the Weapons Pak!!!
 
For those without WoE, I am working on a version useing AD's Hunter F.6, so be paitent!
 
Happy Hunting (I crack myself up sometimes!!)

Le Missionneur mission editor tutorial. Illustrates creation of a sample strike mission with this excellent editor. Works successfully with SFP1, WOV, WOE and mods.

Skin based on a Camo used in one of my short stories. There are some areas where it needs to be touched up but other than that it looks good for my first skin. Others to soon follow!

This aircraft depicits a racing Mustang as flown at the Reno Air Races. Special thanx to Wolf257 for creating this aircraft.
 
Hope you enjoy this...

Oz F-4E Package for SF/WoV/WoE
 
This is an update of nosecone's RAAF F-4E Phantom II skin set.
Having never seen this mod before, I made several unkind comments on the message boards, for which I apologized publicly. Also, as part of said apology, I'm updating the inis and pathways so it now become a simple drag/drop or copy paste operation.
 
As a bonus, I'm including all the ini's necessary to create an RAAF country specific version of the Phantom. All inis, and brand new -only available in this mod!- Hangar & Loading screens are included.
 
Amberly Rhino??? That don't sound too bad!!!
 
Once unzipped, you get 2 choices:
 
1) Add the skin to the existing F-4E in the usual manner or;
2) Create a RAAF-only version. I've included everything needed to do so.
 
You also get a new, Bonus Skin, "RAAFGray" Well, all it is, is the 5 texture bmps, decals ini, texture set ini for a Dark Gray Version of the skin, based off the colors used on the F-111C that's available. I just reused everything that nosecone did, since he mentioned something about the "later versions". You will be re-using the decal set provided (ie: copy into the RAAFGray folder)
 
There are full, detailed install instructions in the read me -- so read the cursed thing!!!. There is vitally important information about weapons loads in there. Operation years are a 'best guess', for a "What If..." aircraft.
 
Credits:
All credit goes to nosecone; he created the decals and did all the original work in 2002. All I've done is assemble it into a cohernt package, updated to the latest standard, and create the dark gray skin. (picture not posted here, check the 'Mods and Skinning' Forum for a screenshot)
 
Enjoy!
