Strike Fighters by Thirdwire

F-100D 'Pretty Penny' (481TFS) skin for WoV:
 
This skin is for Thirdwire's stock F-100D.
 
INSTALLATION:
Unzip to a temp directory and copy&paste the 'PrettyPenny' folder to your F-100D folder.
Since only decals and ini's are provided, you'll have to go to your USAFSilver folder and copy&paste the following files into the 'PrettyPenny' folder:
 
F-100D_1.bmp
F-100D_2.bmp
F-100D_3.bmp
F-100D_4.bmp
 
Those from Bassman's skin pack (http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autocom=downloads&showfile=1507) will work as well.
 
KNOWN ISSUES:
None, but the kills marks are missing and the markings are in black instead of insignia blue.
The latter issue won't be fixed, since both sources show black markings.
 
SOURCES:
-ESCI F-100D Super Sabre in 1/72, Kit 9022
-Drendel, Lou (1973), F-100 Super Sabre in Action, Squadron/Signal Publications, p. 26
 
 
Have fun!

By request; the Tu-16 in Iraqi colours.
One of two (the other in green) I found somewhere on the net,
so note: I DID NOT CREATE THEM MYSELF!
Only thing I did was adjust the decal package to go with the
recent WOI system. In WOV/WOE you need to replace the
serials with the ones common to those games.
Hope you enjoy it, cudo's for the original creator!
 
 
PS: Not sure, but skin most probably made by Phantuam.
(as noted by jarhead1, thanks!)

F9F-5 Panther Skin and Ini Update Pak for SF, WoV & WoE
 
This little package will update Pasko's Panther and bring it to a more up-to-date level. I've reused one of the skin sets, the one for VF-51, as it has nice panel and rivet lines, and has the proper coloring on the wings -so I take NO credit for the actual skin bmps themselves!!! New data, loadout and cockpit inis are included, as I've made several changes in them.
 
The skin folder included is designed to replace the "GoldenDragon" skin folder, as I've created all new decals for the Modex numbers, ship ID/Air Group letter, and all new BuNums. It represents aircraft from VF-192 "Golden Dragons" as seen in the movie 'Bridges at Toko-Ri'. All the BuNums are accurate, in that they are real ones assigned to F9F-5s, but only A/C # 202 and #209 are 100%, as they are the only one I could read viewing the DVD. I have also reused the "Golden Dragons" nose tag decal; so I get no credit for that one!
 
The inis supplied have had a number of tweeks; the data ini gets duplicated wing stations to load rockets ONLY for some mission types, the loadout ini has been adjusted to reflect this, and the cockpit ini (albeit still using the A-4B pit) has had the pilot position adjusted to more match the Real Life ™ placement.
 
A revamped/updated/cleaned-up version of my Panther Hangar screen is also included.
 
=You MUST have the Bunyap Weapons Pak to have the WW2/Post-War/Korean War Era weapons!!! =
 
IMPORTANT: This aircraft is designed to be used in SF/WoV/WoE -- it has NOT been tested with WoI, so I can't help you if you have any problems.
 
PLEASE read the enclosed readme for more, detailed install instructions.
 
Good Hunting!!

- New exhaust emmitters and a water injection feature for the B-52s and B-47.
The power settings on the engines have been adjusted to reflect the extra thrust
gained from employing it.
 
- New sounds, featuring an actual B-52 taking off with water injection.
 
- New lights and "Pride of the Adirondacks" decals for B-47
 
- New lights code that can be added for the B-52G.
 
- B-52s spaced out on the taxiways so they're not hanging over one another.

Original aircraft created by WOLF257. Many thanks to him for permission
to make this small alteration!
 
Added extra BMPs at 512 and 1024 for better FPS.
