Quicker Take Offs for Strike Fighters/WOV
By baffmeister
THIS FILE IS OBSOLETE. NEWER VERSIONS THAT WORK WITH LATEST THIRDWIRE UPDATES ARE AVAILABLE AT THIS SITE.
[includes fixes to airfield lighting. Fixes done by "Piett", "Sidewinder86", "Eightlein", "Comrpnt", and a few by myself.]
This mod should decrease the time required to get aircraft airborne by at least 50%. The mod involves putting 2 aircraft on the runway at the same time as well as tightening the spaceing on the next few aircraft on the taxiway. Third Wires aircraft are quite well behaved when taxiing under AI but some add on aircraft tend to bounce a lot and others don't like to turn. I used 2 "bouncers" in the test program and it took lots of adjustments on the taxi waypoints to get them to work. I think this mod should work OK with most aircraft but can't guarantee it. If you have large bombers installed in your game there is an optional file available for the large airport. It has increased spaceing for the taxi waypoints but is still quicker than the stock version. It was tested with the TU-16 Badger and the B-47. This mod works OK with the DRV terrain and probably many others. To use this mod in WOV just change the file names from DESERT_AIRFIELD"X" to VIETNAMSEA_AIRFIELD"X" and copy them into the WOV terrain folder. Regards.
CHANGES FOR VER 2.1 : Now includes "Comprnt's" fixes for the missing taxiway lighting on the big airport.

Quicker Take Offs for WOE
By baffmeister
THIS FILE IS OBSOLETE. NEWER VERSIONS THAT WORK WITH LATEST THIRDWIRE UPDATES ARE AVAILABLE AT THIS SITE.
This mod will decrease your take off times by at least 50%. This is done by placing 2 aircraft on the runway and decreasing the separation between the first few aircraft on the taxiway. A couple of issues:
1. Third Wire aircraft seem to work well with this mod but some third party aircraft can tend to miss the waypoints due to "bouncing" and they may end up wandering around the airport.
2. Due to the reduced taxi and take off separation, large player flyable aircraft may overlap with the A.I. aircraft and explode on the runway. There are 2 optional files for the large airports that were tested with the TU-16 Badger but they may not work with the B-52 which hasn't been tested. If you have A.I. only large aircraft you shouldn't have a problem.
This mod uses basic runway and taxiway lighting that includes some fixes done by "Sidewinder86", "Eightlein", "Piett" and last but not least, "Comrpnt", who did the tricky fix on the large airport taxiway. Thanks Gents!

Alternative FM for TW F-104G
By baffmeister
This file is totally obsolete. Updates to TW FM's have eliminated all the issues I have tried to address. There may be a few items in the readme that may be of interest to newb's.
An attempt at making Third Wires F-104G a bit more user friendly, and hopefully A.I. friendly. The changes made to the data.ini don't reflect any actual aerodynamic numbers, but have been done to make the F-104G a bit nicer to fly. Consider it "Effect Modeling" as compared to actual "Flight Modeling". I did try to stay true to the "Goes fast, turns bad" concept, however. [it does turn a bit better than stock] No plans to give this treatment to any other aircraft, the F-104G is a bit of a "Special" case. More info in the read me.
Changes for version 1.1: Made the pitch response less 'Linear' and more effective at high speed and high altitude. Improved roll response at high angles of attack. Added a couple more degrees to the stalling angle. For general game usage, this FM is essentially performing the way I wanted it to. It may get the occasional update.

Neutralized F-14B and D glove wings
By coolpilot
This mod neutralizes the glove wings on the B and D versions of the Tomcat because only the A version has them.
Also this makes the stabilizers help the spoilers with the roll control.
Back up your F-14B/D data files.
Simply drop on your F-14B/D folder
Happy hunting!!!

QTO for post sept 08 patch WOE
By mikeymead
QTO for WOE post Sept 08 patch
Once installed this mod should reduce the take off times for whole flights by approx 50%.
It is set up to replace the stock airbases for both the German and Soviet bases and has no light modifications as I don't yet know how to change these.
Both German and Soviet airbase 3 are set up for bombers so the spacing is bigger.
This mod should not upset the randomly parked aircraft.
Installation:-
Back up or rename the 8 German and Soviet airbases.(just in case!)
Then copy and past the files in this mod to the GermanyCE terrain folder and thats it!
CREDITS: baffmeister and csb for their eariler similar mods as it was only by lookin at these that I could figure this out.
WAIVERS: I don't mind if anyone wants to use these files for freeware projects. I would prefer this file not be uploaded to any other sites as it may be subject to updates.
This is the the first file I've uploaded so be gentle with me!

More than just an open canopy mod....
By WombRaider
This is just yet another open canopy mod, but I went a bit further... For one, mine covers about every TK sim there is. Under the new code, every plane does something(except A-10,A-7s, and Harriers) The A-6, and the F-8E both have folding wings, and will be in that stance when you see them parked on the taxiways. The A-4 DATA inis include the non floppy deck crash into the carrier deck anomoly already installed! I also included all of the available Mig, and Su aircraft in on this mod too!
To install....
1. You need the latest patch (except for SFG)
2. If you have a mutant ninja install, this is set up for you! Just unzip to your sim's folder
3. If you do not have a merged install, you need to extract to a temporary folder, then place the plane folders individually.
4.To use the canopy, or wingfold
5.There are several cockpits available for the Mig-21s, and the Mig-17s, and Mig-19s. To make use of this mod fully, you might want to get some flyable red stuff going!
I hope you can make use of these files, they definitely added some immersion to my experience to the sim.
Good Hunting

MiG-17 & MiG-19 Family Variants Data Ini Upgrades
By Wrench
Data Ini Fixes for Various Frescos & Farmers - WoV/WoE/WoI
This package of data inis is designed to bring various sub-variants of the MiG-17 and MiG-19 family up to the latest, post 9/08 patch standard.
They are designed for use on mods from Madcaddie & howling1s "MigPak", "More Migs Pak" and "Still More Migs Pak", which are available at AvSim. Also included is a data ini for the Cuban MiG-17AS by Starfighter, Pasko's 17PFU, and a couple of mods by me, and some other people I can't remember....
The data inis contained herein are modification, per nations and loads, with all the FM updates, taken right from a freshly extracted stock MiG-17F Fresco-C and MiG-19S Farmer-C data inis. This brings in the newly added AI sections, and improved FM to these very old mods...
The aircraft 'repaired' by the enclosed data inis are:
J-4(IRM)
J-4
J-5A (PLAAF mod of Pasko's 17PFU)
MiG-17AS (by starfighter)
MiG-17F(SF-E)
MiG-17PF (SP-16)
MiG-17PF
MiG-17PFU (Pasko)
MiG-19 (IRM mod)
MiG-19F
MiG-19P
MiG-19PM (these 2 by me, The Wrench)
MiG-19SF
F-6 (Shenyang Farmer, Pakistani AF)
I've tried to keep the weapons "NationName" and "AttachmentType" as close to stock whenever and wherever possible. I've tried to design this fix for use with any weapons pak ...remember all these aircraft WERE designed with the Bunyap Pak of 6/06 in mind. If you plan to use these with a 'stock' install, you WILL need to add the various weapons called out in their loadout inis. MOST IMPORTANTLY, if you plan on using these with the Mirage Factory Weapons Pak; either the WoI (-which you shouldn't, really-) or the soon-to-be-released WoE version, you WILL have to import various and sundry bits. In particular, the Izumrd radar nose for the 17P/PF/PFU/J-5A, 19P/PM and the nationalized weapons for the Paki F-6 (as their Sidewinder is a mod of the US version, plus their nationalized bombs and rocket pods and suchlike...), plus the 'pylons' necessary for their attachment.
Highly detailed information on the various loadouts, and eariler data ini fixes can be found in the CombatAce Knowledge Base, in the "Bunyap Wepons and Loadouts Fixes Thread"
http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=18346
It is highly suggested that you spend some time in there..otherwise, you may have some "issues".
Happy Landings

Refueler
By kreelin
This is a little tool to enable you to refuel your aircraft.
How to use it ?
1- BACKUP the DATA.ini file
2- Launch the exe and select the DATA.ini to patch
3- Check the tanker type to use with a/c (Boom or Drogue). (Boom = 3000lb/mins, Drogue= 1000lb/mins)
4- Apply the patch. That's it.
5- Use your Thrust Vector Key to add fuel
Know issues:
- The system is based on a "fake" engine. When refueling, you will have the AB sound (no extra thrust) activated on your plane.
- Only player a/c will be refueled
- You cannot apply the patch to any a/c using TV key...
- You can refuel at any time
As usual, use it at your onw risk. I'm not resonsible of any bad thing that could happened on your PC by using it ;-). This tool cannot be add to a commercial stuff without my premission.
Thanks to STORM and Bpao for Betatesting
Enjoy

F-4E-35 with long gun muzzle (MIDAS IV mod)
By mppd
Mod for the F-4E-35 with long gun muzzle (MIDAS IV mod) from 1971-72:
This is a small mod to the F-4E-35 Phantom II (available for download here at CombatAce:
http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=1020
This version is correct for a Vietnam-era unslatted F-4E model and is a must-have, whereas the F-4E as presented in Wings Over Vietnam has slatted wings (a post-Vietnam modification).
During 1971-72 the USAF F-4Es in Southeast Asia were modified with the MIDAS IV extended muzzle for the plane's M61 20mm Vulcan cannon. This presumably helped the issue of ingesting muzzle gases into the engines during the firing of the weapon.
I have enclosed the stock F-4E-35 data.ini modified to include the enclosed long gun part. (In my own install I duplicated the entire F-4E-35 by renaming the folder, aircraft.ini and data.ini files all to "F-4E-35LG" and in the F-4E-35LG.ini I renamed the AircraftFullName= to "F-4E long gun").
Drop the .LOD file loose into your aircraft folder.
My thanks to Dave and the rest of the team which brought you the original F-4E-35 package, and for allowing me to release their original data.ini file with the text entries to allow the long gun to appear.

These are direct replacements for the default WoV & SF cargoship and tanker. They have been editted to include a radar emitter, making them visible on RWR displays and allowing them to be targetted by anti-radiation missiles (or any antiship missile that uses passive-radar homing).

WoV only! Data mod for adding sampans!
By Tannethal
This file is intended for use with WoV only as it relies on files from the Vietnam_SEA terrain.
What does it do?
It adds two of the three terrain object sampans as ground units of the cargoship class. So then, one can use them in custom missions as moving objects. More to it in the sampans_readme.txt .

MiG-17F Flight Model for WoV
By Fubar512
This is a flight data file ONLY!
This represents a North Vietnamese MiG-17F/LIM-5/F5. and features several refinements over the default flight model, including (but not limited to):
1) Simulated loss of roll control due to Wing Warping (above 470 kias)
2) Simulated loss of pitch authority above 490 kias
3) Refined throttle settings and flight dynamics.
To use, simply extract it to your WoV/Objects/Aircraft/MiG-17F folder, taking care to insure that it's not nested, but actually residing in said folder as file name "MiG-17F_data.ini"
To make it player flyable, I suggest you use Marcfighter's green "Su-7" cockpit.
