SF/WO* Aircraft Skins

GBA I/51 France 1940
 
Breguet BR-693 (13 aircraft)
The Breguet 693 was a light bomber that usually carried 8 50kg bombs.
When they were delivered, the Breguets were popular with their crews, although the unreliable engines in the Br-691 caused headaches. Only in March 1940 were the first combat-worthy Br-693s delivered, and there were now five squadrons to equip: GBA I/51, GBA II/51, GBA I/54, GBA II/54, and GBA II/35, with a theoretical complement of 13 aircraft each.
 
It showed promise in its role and all Breguet variants (691,693 and 695) flew 500 sorties against the German invasion. 79 Br-693s were lost in action.
 
It seems most Br-693s went into service without underwing codes. While there are plenty of pictures of this aircraft in Vichy colours, it didn't serve outside metropolitan France and didn't see combat after the Armistice.
 
Amended DATA and LOADOUT files are included.

Potez Pz-633. Tonkin, French Indochina
 
During World War II, Thailand took the opportunity of French weaknesses to reclaim previously lost territories in 1904 and 1907, resulting in the French-Thai War between October 1940 and 9 May 1941.
 
This single Pz-633 flew recon missions in Indochina against the Thais.
 
Enjoy!

Lockheed Hudson Mk III.
 
No. 2 Squadron, RNZAF 1941
 
The Lockheed Hudson served with the RNZAF from 1941 until the end of WWII, first in the general reconnaissance and bomber role and later as a transport aircraft. At the start of 1940 the RNZAF was still operating the Vickers Vincent biplane, but the British government agreed to provide New Zealand with eighteen Hudsons (March 1940). By the end of 1941 this number had been increased to thirty-six, which were used to equip Nos.1, 2 and 4 Squadrons. Eventually the RNZAF would receive 101 Hudsons (54 Mk.IIIs, 37 Mk.IIIAs, 6 Mk.Vs and 4 Mk.VIs).

Potez 633 B2 Grec
 
The supply agreement for 24, twin-engine Potez 633 B2 Grec bombers, was signed in January 1938 with the delivery deadline expiring in 1 year. Finally 13 airplanes were delivered but one of them was destroyed with French crew at Tanagra Air Base on the delivery flight. The remaining 11 airplanes were confiscated by the French upon the break of the war.
 
The Greek Potez 633 had bombing configuration, except one that was delivered with photographic equipment. Hydraulic variable-paced propellers, F.R. radio, periscopic Bronzavia type bombing sight, OPL 36 fixed gunner sight, GPU rails for 4 or 2 bombs were among their equipment.
 
They took part in the operations in 1940 - 1941, with the 31st Bombing Squadron, until their final immobilization due to the lack of spare parts.

Gladiator MkI
1ère Escardrille de Chasse ("La Comète")/Ième Group/No.2 Air Regiment (Fighter)
 
********For Cocas' terrific Gladiator MkII********
 
Belgium had ordered 22 Gladiator Is during the summer of 1937. 15 aircraft were serviceable on 10 May 1940. Five were not in a flyable condition, 2 were lost prior to accidents prior to the commencement of hostilities.
 
I've included only 14 numbers in the pact as the 15th aircraft (no. 18) belonged to the commanding General and was not armed. While the exact serial numbers of all the active aircraft are not known, I have included the numbers of all the aircraft which were recorded as combat losses.
 
La Comète were based at Schaffen, just north of Diest. The base was attacked at 04:32hrs on 10 May 1940 with the loss of 3 Gladiators and 9 of the 11 Hurricane MkIs stationed there.

French Silver Scheme for Mirage 5D (TW model)
 
version 0.9
 
by Gerwin 5-10-2008
 
DESCRIPTION:
WOI includes the Mirage 5D only as an adversary aircraft, Fortunately
this aircraft is almost identical to the Nesher and quite similar to the
Mirage III.
 
This package includes a French Airforce silver skin for the Mirage 5D,
and also 3 ini files that will make the aircraft Flyable (using the
Nesher cockpit). It will also change the default nationality of the
Mirage 5D to France, which is by default a 'Friendly' nation.
 
This Silver skin is heavily based on the stock Mirage III silver skin.
The Mirage number style 13-S* is correct, but each last letter is made
up and might not have actually been used. The red overspray near the
intakes is to be adjusted in a final release.
 
INSTALLATION:
Copy the included folder with contents to the folder that contains
the Mirage5D files, for example:
WOI\Objects\Aircraft\Mirage5D
When in the game select the skin in the loadout screen.
 
THANKS TO:
Third Wire for the Strike Fighters Based Games
Column5.us for their Mirage number decals, which I modified.

Skin Template for F-16A (Netz), TW model
 
version 1.0
 
by Gerwin 22..27-9-2008
 
DESCRIPTION:
This is a template for the original WOI F-16a Netz,
It has the following features:
- Selection mask for overspray areas
- Base color is now one plain tan color instead of the IDF camo,
this might be a more practical base for new skins. as the
old camo edges are hard to remove.
- You can enable layers that make it an USAF hill grey scheme.
- Decals related files included for the USAF scheme.
 
INSTALLATION:
Open with a paint program that can read PSD format (such as photoshop)
 
THANKS TO:
Third Wire for the Strike Fighters Based Games.
Column5.us for their F-16A skin (colors reference) and tail code decals

Generic Hill Scheme F-16A (Netz) Skin for TW model
 
version 1.0
 
by Gerwin 15..22-9-2008
 
DESCRIPTION:
The F-16A Netz in Wings over Israel looks and flies great,
but by default lacks an USAF Hill scheme in which most of
the worlds F-16's are seen.
This package contains such a Hill grey scheme and matching USAF
markings. This is basically a cleverly recolored version of the
original IDF camo skin.
 
INSTALLATION:
Copy the included folder with contents to the folder that contains
the F-16A Netz files, for example:
WOI\Objects\Aircraft\F-16A_Netz
When in the game select the skin in the loadout screen.

Gull Grey A-6 Intruder Skin for Third-Wire model V1.1
 
Update by Gerwin 6-4-2008..2-5-2008
 
DESCRIPTION:
I noticed the Navy Aircraft skins in WOV have been skinned
quite consistend in color and style
...except for the A-6A that is.
This skin seems to be a more blue-ish grey and the weathering
is rather thick and black.
 
I tried to overhaul the original existing skin to better fit
between the other aircraft:
The Base colors are now exactly the same as the F-8 and A-7.
The weathering was toned down and various details have been
adjusted. Also I replaced the style of the nose cone and the
fuselage air-brakes. On itself the white and yellow nose cones
and the white/grey airbrakes represent real-life appearance,
yet I do not know in which squadrons and in what
combination they actually appeared.
This skin does not include custom decals.
 
UPDATE:
In version 1.1 I weathered the skin in a way that is
consistent with the other navy aircraft. The insides of the
jet intakes have been recolored. The grey/white transitions have
been slightly relocated. The white bottom is lighter now.
The red color under the flaps does not shine trough so much now.
 
INSTALLATION:
Copy the included folder with contents to the folder that contains
the A-6 files, for example:
WOV\Objects\Aircraft\A-6A
When in the game select the skin in the loadout screen.
 
If you prefer the white nose cone you have to rename:
A-6_Texture5.bmp to A-6_Texture5_yellownose.bmp
A-6_Texture5_whitenose.bmp to A-6_Texture5.bmp

Generic Hill Scheme F-4E+F-4G Phantom II Skin for TW+MF model
 
Update by Gerwin 6-4-2008
 
DESCRIPTION:
Wanting a good hill scheme Phantom II, I ended up using the Mirage
Factory F-4G 'Late' Skin. Over time I made the following modifications:
 
-Scaled the skin down to the default resolution 512x512.
-Replaced certain skin parts with the default texture, such as the exhaust.
-Overlayed a subtile weathering layer. raised blue saturation.
-Fixed the numbering decals for the tail.
-Erased the insignia from the skins and replaced them with decals.
-Overlayed the default panel lines on the fuselage, tail and nose.
-Adjusted various details.
-Made an F-4E suitable variant (different slimers, nose gun etc).
 
Regarding the F-4E tail codes: they are somewhat a copy of the F-4G codes.
I am a bit uncertain on the historical accuracy of this.
 
INSTALLATION:
For the F-4G skin you need to have the Mirage Factory F-4G model installed.
you can find it at http://www.column5.us
 
Copy the included folder with contents to the folder that contains
the F-4 files, for example:
WOE\Objects\Aircraft\F-4E
When in the game select the skin in the loadout screen.

A-4 Skyhawk updated Skin Pack for Third-Wire model
 
1) IAF (Israel) 'Ahit' skin, for A4-F (original work by Markfighters and Sundowner)
2) USMC Camo skin, for A4-E (original work by mitch)
3) USN Low Vis skin, for A4-E (original work by column5)
 
Update by Gerwin 25-3-2008
 
DESCRIPTION:
Third Wire did an excellent job on the A-4F skin,
both in regard to detail as to weathering.
There are also some interesting user skins for the
Skyhawk series offered on the internet, including
the three described above. Yet I noticed the skins
lacking on certain areas:
-gun fume stains
-weathering effects
-properly aligned camo pattern and other alignments
-panel details
-overall texture brightness/saturation
-usage of decals
-colors of certain areas
So here are the updated skins, most work was
done on the Ahit (which now uses WOI colors),
and the Camo scheme (many obvious errors, I have no
photo references of this scheme). The low vis scheme
was only slightly adjusted/weathered.
 
NOTE: These skins will not adjust aircraft data,
only the nation and the appearance.
 
INSTALLATION:
Copy the included folder with contents to the folder that contains
the A-4 files, for example:
WOE\Objects\Aircraft\A-4E
When in the game select the skin in the loadout screen.

Sand/Desert F-15a Skin (fictional) for third-wire model
 
By Gerwin 17-3-2008
 
DESCRIPTION:
The stock f-15a seems to be showcase aircraft
of Wings over Europe, and as it is it looks very good.
Unfortunately there are very few alternative skins for
this model. Using the templates from third-wire I started
a not to ambitious plan to change the skin from
a grey/blue one to a sand colored one. Although quite some
tuning was required to give it a sand color with the appropriate
red/yellow saturation.
As already stated this paintscheme is fictional.
Also it might need some additional study which parts at the
exhaust are normally painted and which remain bare metal.
The decals and number configurations have not been changed.
 
INSTALLATION:
Copy the included folder with contents to the folder that contains
the F-15a files, for example:
WOE\Objects\Aircraft\F-15A
When in the game select the skin in the loadout screen.
 
THANKS TO:
Third Wire for the Strike Fighters Based Games,
including the F-15a model and templates
