MiG-17PFU Fresco-E upgrade Ver.2 for SF/SFG/WoV/WoE/WoI and maybe SF2/SF2-V


 

Version 2.5ish Upgrade 4/20/09


 
This is a simple upgrade that will bring this aircraft to the latest patch standards (08 Level)
This is ALL the other mods complied into a complete package, all inclusive, and is designed to TOTALLY replace any earlier upgrades..
 
The changes implimented herein are mostly in the switching of the Izumrud nose bubble to a 'pilot seat', ala FastCargo's trick. This will allow it to show on aircraft parked on the line. Included is Mago/Paladrain's cockpit from the PFM. While not a perfect match, it's the 'bestest closest fit', and works REALLY nicely!!
 
The avionics ini has been updated to include an audio-only RWR; not sure of what type, probably some kind of a Serina, but it does work. The cockpit ini has also been modified to use the original style radar and radar display that Pasko created. No other changes have been made to it. So the instructions given in the original 'readme' still apply for target aquisition, tracking and firing. The is the 'Interception Procedures.txt' included in the main folder.
 
You'll also find an updated data ini to 08 standards The data ini also has had the gun aim angles adjusted to fire almost perfectly through the center of the sight. Given the lack of ammo in Red Air, this ought to be a big help. You'll also find working landing lights for those pesky night intercepts....you never know when the Political Officer will wander across the runway, drunk as a skunk. This'll allow you to see him and swerve to miss (or not)
 
It is designed for use with any/all weapons paks, or none. I've incuded the Alkali A & B missiles from the 06 Bunyap Pak; still in their RS-2US and RS-2U naming conventions, in the 'seperate folder' format now usable in all post patch games. For those with SF2 and SF2:V, the weapons data ini for each missile is included in each of the folders. As I don't have these games, you all'll have to figure out the numbering on your own. But, with TKs release of the SF2 weapons editor, this should pose no major problem
 
As always, it's reccomened you unzip this package to a temp folder, or your desktop, to gain access to the rest of this readme for the full, easy to follow install instructions.
 
Good Hunting!

MiG-17PF Fresco-D upgrade -Ver2.0 for SF/SFG/ WoV/WoE/WoI and maybe SF2 & SF2-V


 

Updated to Ver. 2 4/20/09


 
This version is designed to completly REPLACE the mod I released some time ago.....
 
This is an almost complete rebuild of Madcaddie's MiG-17PF 'Fresco-D' limited all-weather, radar equipped interceptor. This has been tweeked to use a modified UV-16 rocket pod as an air-to-air weapon, along with a new-ish version of the S-5 unguided rocket.
Most of the data for this weapons tweek was worked out by Lexx_Luthor in a thread over at the 3rd Wire Message Boards, using some data I've discoverd in the past. (see "Notes" section below for more details). The Flight Model parameters themselves have been copied directly from the latest Fresco-C's, so they are the most current (as of the 08 Patches for WoE).
 
I'm releasing the ENTIRE aircraft, minus the lods of course, as they exist in all versions of the game,
EVERYTHING is included, all the inis, new 'SovietSilver' larger skin bumps, etc.
Also included is the cockpit, basically Mago/Paladrin's MiG-21MF; with some small modifications to the radar display. And, ONLY available in this mod, a new WoE-style Hangar Screen; the original 'artwork' type is also still included
 
This is a completly new skin, created from a new template, made by me, based off the original 3rdW units. I've resized it up to 1024x1024, with completly redrawn rivet and panel lines. Also included is a revamped "M17PF.bmp" for the nose radar bubble, also resized and repainted.
 
You =WILL= be using the weapons editor to add the new rockets and rocket pod!!!!!
 
==IT IS HIGHLY SUGGESTED YOU HAVE THE LATEST WEAPONS EDITOR==
 
As always, it's reccomened you unzip this package to a temp folder, or your desktop, to gain access to the rest of this readme for the full, easy to follow install instructions. Well, almost easy...don't forget you'll be adding weapons, if you've not downloaded this before...
 
Happy Hunting!!

MiG-17PF (SP-16) Fresco-D upgrade for SF/SG/ WoV/WoE/WoI and maybe SF2 & SF2-V
 
UPDATED 4/21/09


 
This version is designed to completly REPLACE the mod I released some time ago.....
 
This is an almost complete rebuild of Madcaddie's MiG-17PF (SP-16) 'Fresco-D' limited all-weather, radar equipped interceptor. This has been tweeked to use a modified UV-16 rocket pod as an air-to-air weapon, along with new-ish versions of the S-5 unguided rocket. This aircraft is also equiped with the RS-2U 'Alkali' beam-riding missile. This mod also makes ue of the 'station specific code' for the rocket pods, disallowing the use of other weapons as a saftey measure.
 
Most of the data for this weapons tweek was worked out by Lexx_Luthor in a thread over at the 3rd Wire Message Boards, using some data I've discoverd in the past. (see "Notes" section below for more details). The Flight Model parameters themselves have been copied directly from the latest Fresco-C's, so they are the most current.

And, ONLY available in this mod, a new WoE-style Hangar Screen; the original 'artwork' type is also still included
 
You =WILL= be using the weapons editor to add the new rockets and rocket pod, if you are adding this mod for the first time. However, there HAS been a slight change in the UV-16AA rocket pod. These changes are documented below, in the "Weapons Installation" section.
 
== IT IS HIGHLY SUGGESTED YOU HAVE THE LATEST WEAPONS EDITOR ==
 
As always, it's reccomened you unzip this package to a temp folder, or your desktop, to gain access to the rest of this readme for the full, easy to follow install instructions.
 
Or, in other words.....
 
You WILL also be reading the enclosed readme, by order of the State Ministry of Instructions, which contains fully detailed, step by step procedures for installation. There is also a substantial section by Comrade "General Notes", that you will find interestering and explanitory. If not, the uranium mines of Siberia await....
 

 
Enjoy!

The Advanced Super Tomcat (ASF-14) was a proposed upgrade to the F-14D
more info here:
 
http://www.anft.net/f-14/f14-history-f14x.htm
 
This is my first project so it may have many issues, the known ones are in the readme file.
 
Installation instructions and more details in readme.

this is my first upload ever and the first ever modified tu 16 for a h-6 chinese tanker. i see their is no tankers for the plaaf in ca or anywhere else (the last time i checked)so here it is . if their is no readme/instruction file i say sorry but i'm in a hurry. i want to give credit to all that contributed for each and every file their is in this package. i give you two thumbs up. all the files should be straight forward.
 
thanks and enjoy
 
the screenshot is me flying over taiwan strait
 
hope someone can make a mission for air refueling between a j10 and a h-6
 
this tanker can also be used for russian side as a tu16z or tu16n
 
also the bomb door can also be used for fabbombs or chinese yu-2 torps.
 
a big surprise but its a multirole tanker bomber etc...

F-86D-31 Royal Danish Air Force Esk 726
 
This is a Redo of my earlier Skin. In fact it's a complete new mod.
 
This is a complete Aircraft. with better Sidewinder rails and a gun firring fake rockets. So now AI will engage Air2Air
with rockets. But whatch the ammo. You only have 24 shots.
 
ONLY reason to create a gun which is not historical correct on the D model is a compromise betwen realliaty and what the sim allowes
I STRESS again had the sim allowed the AI to engage with rockets I wouldnt have added the Gun tray. but retained the original Rocket tray.
 
How to install?? Unpack, drag and drop the entire Objects Folder into your WOX install. Add the weapons data and gundata
into the respective ini's open and save with the guneditor and weaponeditor. IF you have Ravenclaw_007's late CL-13B pack
installed only the tanks needs to be added in the weaponsdata.ini.
 
 
I would like to say thanks to:
 
The original F-86D Team for alowing me to use their stuff.
Bobrock for his Templates I used.
Ravenclaw-007 for the tank templates and sidewinder rails.
Julhelm for the gundata entry.
Vigilant for the gun.
Fast Cargo For the rocket tray animation tip.
 
 
Enjoy and REMEMBER this is freeware stuff and it should newer be used in ANY payware mod. But feel free to use at will otherwise

Repost of the previous, wrong file, corrected skins
 
This pack contains all harriers employed in the spanish navy since 1976, in nation-specific mods,
wich should work in all thirdwire sims
 
Includes AV-8S Matador (by wpnssgt) and AV-8B (by bobrock) in both Day Attack and Plus Versions,
in nation-specific mods
 
 
In 1976, the Spanish Navy, wich couldn´t afford to use a conventional Aircraft Carrier, became
the first navy to use Harriers operationally from a WWII CVL(USS Cabot), the AV-8S "Matador", while
the Royal Navy could still operate F-4Ks and Bucaneers from HMS Ark Royal.
 
After the Falklands War, the Harrier won the trust of the Spanish Navy command, wich allowed the
following models of the family to stay serving despite the cost it implicated. Such this way, the Harrier
remains in spanish service.

Northrop/Horton F-79C "Manta" for SF/WoV/WoE and maybe WoI & SF2



For Post-Patch (9/08 & 10/08) Installs ONLY


 
 
A "What If..." aircraft for the early Cold War....
 
This is a mod of Pasko's Ho-229 into a "What If" aircraft for the immeadate Post-War/Cold War period of 1948-1955.
 
This is a complete aircraft mod, containing everything needed to just unzip and fly. Some weapons and, of course, a new pilot figure will need installing, but that's a pretty simple matter.
 
The skin, created from new 1024x1024 templates, is based off the original WW2 Luftwaffe one, and has completly redrawn panel and rivet lines. All new decals representing a ficitonal USAF unit, 54th FIW, are included for 38 aircraft. These are the standard 'buzz numbers' and serial numbers as seen on USAF aircraft of the time period. Period style lighting has been added; running and ID lights, and a landing light. The cockpit, while based off the A-4B, has been extensively edited to make use of the new coding in post-08-patches for the "OpenCockpit", as has the data ini. This allows the external model's canopy frame to work for us. If attempting to use in a pre-patch install, you'll need to make all sorts of adjustments, and even I don't remember them all. Suffice it to say, it's built for post patch -- keep it that way.
 
A new "WoE-style" hangar screen has been created for this aircraft. Also included are an illustrated Word doc and a pdf with the "What If..." historical notes. Damage tgas are here as well, just in case you happen to get shot up....
 
This mod is designed for use with, I'm hoping, ANY weapons pak. You may just need to add a few things. If you've already added the weapons provided from another mod or weapons pak, you need not add them again.
 
= IMPORTANT: This aircraft has been tested in Post-Patch SF/WoV/WoE/WoI. Be advised of the existence of some handling issues prevelant in WW2 era and many Pre-Patch (ie: 06 level) aircraft. Fly accordingly!!! It should also work in SF2 and later iterations - this has NOT been tested, however.
 
As always, unzip this to a temp folder somwhere, and you'll have access to the rest of the readme for it's instructions.
 
Good Hunting!
