F4F-4 Wildcat, VF-41, MTO "Torch"
By Wrench
Grumman F4F-4 Wildcat, VF-41 'Operation Torch' Skin & Ini Pak
for SF/SFG/WoV/WoE WW2: MTO Installs
=Version 2.0 - will update and REPLACE the original from 2005=
This package contains a new skin, and some minor data & cockpit ini mods for Pasko's F4F-4 "Wildcat". It is designed to TOTALLY replace the VF-41 version released several years ago.
The skin represents VF-41 "Red Rippers" based aboard USS RANGER during Operation Torch, the Invasion of North Africa (well, actually, we all know it was Morocco and Tunisia, but why quibble???)
This new skin, like the other Wildcat skins I've done recently, is from my home-grown template, with all redrawn panel, rivet and other details. It has been resized to 1024x, so has a bit more detail than the older 512 version. All new decals, of the correct font and size have been created for the Modex and BuNums. The BuNums ARE for -4 Wildcats, but I was unable to acertain WHICH exact numbers were used by VF-41 during Torch. So, consider them as 'generic'; accurate, but generic <grin>
For those that haven't updated their MTO install's F4F-4, all the inis and sounds from the PTO Wildcat Upgrade are included; new data, cockpit and Main ini --so make sure you follow the instructions below!!!
The cockpit ini makes use of a new WW2 N-3 gunsight tga.
Like it's PTO brother, the canopy has been switched to an animation key (shift/0). The wingfold stays the same as originally issued; you use the bomb-bay control key (cntrl/O). As always, all the lights have been updated with accurate running, formation and landing lights. Also, the landing gear retraction sound is now the 'rachet' noise, as heard in the PTO upgrades.
A new WoE-style 'carrier deck' hangar screen, JUST for this mod is included (as it uses the VF41 skin)
As always, it's reccomended you unzip this package to a temp folder or your desktop, or somewhere's else that's easy to find to gain access to the rest of this readme for full, detailed install instructions.
Good Hunting!

SF1 Korean War Corsair Pack for TMF F4U7/AU-1
By Geary
SF1 Korean War Corsair Pack
For the TMF F4U7 / AU-1 Corsair.
These are converted/repainted skins and ini file tweaks of Wrench's SF2 Corsairs paks for use in a SF1 Korea War install. This is a complete aircraft pak containing 4 different Corsair versions and 23 unit skins.
The skins are in .bmp format at 1024 x 1024 pixels each.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks and credit go to (from Wrench's original read me file).
"TMF/Mod Mafia for ALL these Corsairs: with special thanks to BPAO - we miss you Oli!
and also to Crusader, Mod Mafia Leader (xTMF)
RussoUK for the engine sound, borrowed from the P-47N
Me, for alot of the skins and decals and some ini reworking and assembling the package, and bottle washing.
More Skins by CrazyHorseB34 (thanks man!)."
And to Geary - for new lines, rivets, repaints, conversions, ini tweaks, a few decals, adding .50 cal painted gun ports to F4U-4, etc...
But, especially to Wrench for all the work he did in putting the original Corsair paks together.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I used parts and pieces from Wrench's sf2_kaw_f4u4_cosairs_pak, his sf2_f4u5_corsair_pak, his sf2_kaw_corsairs file and his SF1 f4u4b_pak to get some of these tweaks to work in SF1.
---------- Installation Instructions --------------------------
If you have any of these aircraft installed, you must rename or remove them.
INSTALLATION: Unzip to a folder/place of your choice. Copy, Move, Drag-n-Drop or do whatever you wish to get the folders into their corresponding folders in your SF1 Korea install. Fly.
If you don't have the correct weapons, look in the many weapons packs available here at CombatAce.
There's a repainted m38_jeep.bmp that the 500lb and 1000lb bomb use as a skin. If you want to use it, just drop it into your weapons folder and overwrite the old one.
-----------------------------------------------
I've included a repainted drop tank to match the aircraft skin color. Installation instructions are in the Weapons folder and in the SF1 Knowledge Base.
-------------------------------------------------
If I forget or miss anyone who deserves credit for anything I release, I apologize. I have no intent to abuse or misuse anyone's work or property or claim it as my own. Please contact me to correct any error.
I'm releasing this under the Combat Ace Fair Use Agreement. Use it anyway you wish for personal use. Otherwise, please give credit to those due it.
If you find any problems with it, please PM me. If you improve it, please share.

Vought/Goodyear FG-1D Corsair (F4U-1D) Fuerza Aérea Salvadoreña
By Wrench
Vought/Goodyear FG-1D Corsair (F4U-1D) Fuerza Aérea Salvadoreña (El Salvador Air Force)
--for SF/WoV/WoE/WoI and probably SF2
-Part of an on-going series of mod recreating Central American Airpower
Modifications, and a complete reskin of Wolf257s F4U Corsair into those as used by the El Salvadoran Air Force.
This is a SEMI-COMPLETE aircraft mod, as per Wolf's wishes, the aircraft LOD is NOT included. However, EVERYTHING else is; cockpit, inis, skin, decals and so forth. The cockpit includes 2 bmps, both 'enhanced' with extra little do-dads and thingamabobs.
The skins, from my "enhanced" template, have my patented "interperative" panel, rivet lines and other details.New decals for the individual aircraft are from historical listings. The numbers.lst, while included, is NOT active, to prevent 'running out of numbers in game'. It's just renamed, so it's easy to reactiveate it.
You also get a new WoE style Hangar screen, all the WW2 style weapons are included in the new "folder format" for use in post-patch installs, -and- in EACH weapons folder is a ***_data.ini as used by SF2. Unfortunately, as I don't have SF2, some experimentation on your part will be required to install and get them up and running. (meaning, I'm not sure how the numberation runs...)
This mod is designed for use with, I'm hoping, ANY weapons pak. You may just need to add a few things.
= 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 and eariler) aircraft. Fly accordingly!!! It should also work in SF2 and later iterations - this has NOT been tested, however.
=MORE IMPORTANT: You =MUST= have Wolf's WW2 Planes Pak to get the LOD from. It is NOT included!!=
Again, you can expect the usual detailed readme to browse through that's got all you need to know to, well, install it!!
Good Luck, and Good Hunting!

Vought F4U-5 Corsair, Fuerza Aérea Hondureña
By Wrench
Vought F4U-5 Corsair, Fuerza Aérea Hondureña (Honduran Air Force) for SF/WoV/WoE/WoI and probably SF2
-Part of an on-going series of mods recreating Central American Airpower
This is a modification of The Mirage Factory's F4U-7 (French Navy version), into the earlier, and almost identical (albiet modified), F4U-5 version as used by the Honduran Air Force in the 1950s and 60s. This mod is VERY similiar to the Korean Era F4U-4B mod I released in 2008.
This pak contains -almost- everything you'll need to create this new version, minus a few critical files that you'll need to copy from the original F4U-7. So you MUST have the -7 somewhere to copy them from. If not, you can download it from Check6 (TMF Home Site), Column5 or CombatAce
This is to be considered as an "incomplete" aircraft mod, due to the non-inclusion of certain files. I've NOT included the aircraft LOD files nor the cockpit folder. See below "To Install" for a complete list of the necessary parts.
I've included all the inis I've modified, so you'll be copying the minimum number of bits. You also get a new WoE style Hangar screen, all the weapons in the new "folder format" for use in post-patch installs, and in EACH weapons folder is a _data.ini as used by SF2. Unfortunately, as I don't have SF2, some experimentation on your part will be required to install and get them up and running.
The skins are "pieces parts", dejumbled together from the stock ones that came with the aircraft when released. New, historical individual number decals are included. The numbers.lst, while included, is NOT active, to prevent 'running out of numbers in game'. It's just renamed, so it's easy to reactiveate it.
This mod is designed for use with the, I'm hoping, ANY weapons pak. You may just need to add a few things.
= 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 aircraft. Fly accordingly!!! It should also work in SF2 and later iterations - this has NOT been tested, however.(as I ain't got it!)

F2A-3 Buffalo, Update Pak
By Wrench
F2A-3 Buffalo, Skin and Ini Update Pak For SF/Wo*/SF2 PTO Installs
This is a semi-complete package for the Dev A-Team F2A Buffalo, in USN and USMC service at the beginning of World War 2.
It is semi-complete due to DAT rules, the aircraft lod is NOT included. So, you'll need the F2A-R2.LOD to compete this package. Everything else IS included.
3 skin/decal set are included; and there's 3 individual readmes, as I've combined all the earlier seperate downloads from my now-closed site, into one. I'd reccomend reading them all, if only for the historical reference
VF-2 "Flying Chiefs", USS Lexington, December 1941
VMF-212, MCAS Ewa, Territory of Hawaii, circa January 1942
VMF-221, Midway Island, June 1942 (yes, them). This skin is 100% historically accurate, with BuNum matched to Modex numbers for the aircraft assigned during the Battle of Midway. (shown in screenshot)
Canopy works via manual animation key, the standard Shift/0
Also included is the engine sound, and a pilot figure. NOTE: the pilot figure is set for 06 level, so you drop him into the root of the /Objects/Aircaft folder.
For SF2 usage, you'll get a new folder for him in the /Pilots sub-folder. In essence, you've got him twice!
Once unzipped, all you need to is drop the LOD into the /F2A folder,and off you go. I'd also advise reading each of the enclosed readmes.
*Note: while still designed with 06 SF/Wo* in mind, it should also be usable in 08 Level SF/Wo*. If used in 08s & SF2, be advised a completly new FM will be necessary. Also, cockpit repositioning will be needed for SF2. Post all questions & problems in the SF2 PropHead Forum. I'll get them worked out (excepting FMs and LOD issues)!*

VF-85 F4U-1c Decal Fix
By RAVEN
VF-85 F4U-1c Decal Fix
For SF1/WOV/WOE PTO/CBI installs
This fixes the blank decal's that show up and stops the decal no show (hopefully). I have included a filler decal so when the game engine cycle’s the numbers there is a decal that will show. Just the VF-85 lightning bolt with no number.
To install: Unzip and just drop the VF-85 folder in to your F4U-1c folder, over right? Say Yes.
I have also updated the numbers.lst
Tested with WOE Patched 06
Original readme included.

SBD-3, VS-41 'Operation Torch' Ver.2
By Wrench
SBD-3 Dauntless, VS-41 "Operation Torch"
Skin and Ini Pak for SF/SFG/WoV/WoE MTO Installs (06 Level ONLY)
Version 2
This skin represents aircraft from VS-41 "Tophatters" as seen aboard USS RANGER during Operation Torch, the Invasion of North Africa.
This is a complete and utter replacement/revamp of a skin I released 2005; it has been completely redone using my
enhanced template, repainted in the proper Non-Specular blue/gray, and has all new decals of the proper font re-created.
All new Modex/Plane-in-Group numbers for 18 aircraft, 'generic' BuNums and aircraft type name decals have also been
made. I say 'generic', as they ARE SBD-3 BuNums, but could find no information on the aircraft assigned VS-41 during Torch.
A new 'carrier deck' hangar screen, more specific for TORCH, is also included.
Included is a modified data ini, with a 1942 start year, for use in a MTO =ONLY= style install. More info is below in the 'To Install' section.
-= NOTE: You MUST have the WW2 Weapons Pak from CombatAce to get the WW2 weapons and guns and such =-
-== This aircraft has been tested in SF/WoV/WoE 06-patch levels (actually 06 WoE) of the aformentioned sims. It has NOT, however been testing in the SF2 Series. But it if works in 08, it works there, too.. There still are some 'issues' with prop-plane flight models, but there has been a MARKED improvement!! You use it in these Post Patch/SF2 Environments at YOUR own risk ==-
As always, it's reccomended you unzip this package to a temp folder or your desktop, or somewhere's else that's easy to find to gain access to the rest of this readme for full, detailed install instructions. It's also required that you actually READ the enclosed readme....
Good Hunting!

PBY-5A Catalina, Generic USN, 1942-43
By Wrench
Consoladated PBY-5A, Generic USN 1942/43 Skin and Ini Tweeks Pak
-For SF/WoV/WoE WW2 PTO Installs (and maybe SF2, too!)
A reskin, redecaling and some ini mods for Veltro2K Catalina amphib/flying boat.
The skin, made from pappychksix's EXCELLENT template (meaning: I didn't have to repaint anything!), represents the 'generic' style used by the US Navy from May 1942 to approx Sept 1943. That is to say, the standard non-specular blue over gray. New decals have been created for the US Star, now in all six positions, individal Modex, BuNums and the aircraft ID tag. ALL markings seen in the accompanying screenshot ARE decals!
Several Ini edits, and a new avionics ini, tweek some weapons placements & loadouts, control movements, and to simulate the ASV radar that was standard on all new build -5As from approx July/August 42. Full details of the modifications/tweeks are elaborated in the "Notes" section below.
A new WoE-style hangar screen is also included (something I failed to do for Veltro for the initial release! My apologies!). A new damage tga is also included.
=IMPORTANT: You WILL need the WW2 Weapons Pak (or equlivant BunyPak of 06) to get the WW2 weapons, bombs and such. (but you should already have that, yes??)
The WW2 Weapons Pak is available at CombatAce at the following URL:
http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autocom=downloads&showfile=8495
As always, unzip this to a temp folder somwhere, and you'll have access to the rest of the readme for it's instructions. It is VITALY important you read this document through FIRST before installing this mod, as you'll be backing up several of the inis.
Good Hunting!

SBD-2/3 Daunless, VS-6, USS Enterprise, Pearl Harbor
By Wrench
SBD-3 Dauntless Skin, VS-6, USS Enterprise; for SF/WoV/WoE PTO installs
"Pearl Harbor Defenders" - American Bombers
This skin and Ini Update Pak for Wolf257's SBD Dauntless dive bomber represents VS-6 (Scouting Squadron 6) as based aboard USS Enterprise in December, 1941.
Coloring and Decals represent the standard type markings as seen on Naval/Marine aircraft of the time, and include NEW BuNums and aircraft type name on the tail. BuNums are accurate, as they ARE from -2 & -3 Dauntless', but my research has only turned up 6 actual numbers as used by VS-6 that day. Unfortunately, they are the aircraft that were lost...
A new decal is also used for the arrestor hook; it finally gets some color :)
Ini mods include (yes, yet again!) some small lighting corrections from my pervious release of several years ago, modification of the StartYear; I've made it earlier, and the addition of a seat for the pilot to 'park it' on. The cockpit ini has a replacement 'ring-and-bead' type sight that is closer to the reticle in the (then) standard telescopic site used on all the early model (up until the -5 variant) Dauntless.
-= NOTE: You MUST have the Bunyap Weapons Pak of 6/06 to get the WW2 weapons and guns and such =-
-== This aircraft has been tested in SF/WoV/WoE and post-patch WoI (8/08) as well as post 9/08 & 10/08 SF/WoV/WoE. There still are some 'issues' with prop-plane flight models, but there has been a MARKED improvement!! You use it in these Post Patch Environments at YOUR own risk ==-

SBD-3 Dauntless, VS-8 Battle of Midway
By Wrench
SBD Dauntless, VS-8 USS Hornet, Battle of Midway Skin set - For SF/WoV/WoE WW2 PTO Installs-
This is a skin set representing VS-8 aboard USS Hornet, June 4, 1942 during the Battle of Midway.
Yorktown and Hornet used a slightly different numbering style than Enterprise; having the numbers aft of the fuselage star.
It's a standard non-specular blue over gray, with the "modex" or plane-in-group numbers in white. Aircraft type name and BuNum decals are also included.
It's pretty much standard for the time, with the exception of the lettering being aft of the fuselage star

SBD-3 Dauntless, VB-3 Battle of Midway skin
By Wrench
SBD Dauntless, VB-3 USS Yorktown, Battle of Midway Skin - For SF/WoV/WoE WW2 PTO Installs-
This is a skin set representing VB-3 aboard USS Yorktown, June 4, 1942 during the Battle of Midway.
Yorktown and Hornet used a slightly different numbering style than Enterprise; having the numbers aft of the fuselage star. This may be because a lot of these aircraft were possibly Lexingtion survivors (unlikely), or transfered over from Saratoga as she had returned to Bremerton for repairs.
It's a standard non-specular blue over gray, with the "modex" or plane-in-group numbers in black. Aircraft type name and BuNum decals are also included.
It's pretty much standard for the time; it was transitional period just after the ordered removal of the VERY disliked enlarged star w/meatball and the 13 red and white rudder stripes. Due to the extingincies of war, I'd think getting the numbers placed and painted properly was NOT a high-priority item <wink>

F4F-4 Wildcat, Generic USN 1942 Skin
By Wrench
F4F-4 Wildcat Skin, Generic US Navy, 1942; for SF/WoV/WoE PTO installs
This is a somewhat "Generic" skin set for use by US Navy VF (Fighter Squadrons) for the March 1942 - January 1943 timeframe. It represents NO single squadron (hence the "generic" tile) and therefore can be used for any and all Wildcat squadrons as based aboard American aircraft carriers from Midway through the end of the Guadalcanal campaign timeframe, and probably for USMC squadrons as well (albeit with slightly different BuNums...).
It's the standard non-specular blue over gray, with stars in all 6 positions. As US carrier fighter squadrons seemed to have gone under an 'expansion' aboard ship; from the usual pre-war 15-18 aircraft, to 24-28 per squadron (ie: at Midway the average was 24), I've supplied individual "plane-in-grope" numbers for 36 aircraft, although only 28 are activated in the numbers.lst. These "modex" numbers are in the as-specified black, although research has indicated some squadrons may have used white (ie: Yorktown at Midway). This will in no way detract from it's usage. Aircraft type name and BuNum decals are also supplied; actual -4 serial numbers - it can probably be safely assumed these WERE used on combat aircraft.
-= NOTE: You MUST have the Bunyap Weapons Pak of 6/06 to get the WW2 weapons and guns and such =-
-== This aircraft has been tested in SF/WoV/WoE and post-patch WoI (8/08) as well as post 9/08 & 10/08 SF/WoV/WoE. There still are some 'issues' with prop-plane flight models, but there has been a MARKED improvement!! You use it in these Post Patch Environments at YOUR own risk ==-

VF-6 'Shooting Stars" F4F-3 Wildcat
By Wrench
F4F-3 Wildcat Skin, VF-6, USS Enterprise, 12/7/41; for SF/WoV/WoE PTO installs
"Pearl Harbor Defenders" - American Fighters
This skin represents VF-6 "Shooting Stars" as based aboard USS Enterprise in December, 1941.
Decals represent the standard type markings as seen on Naval/Marine aircraft of the time, and include BuNums and aircraft type name on the tail. BuNums are accurate, as they ARE from -3 Wildcats, but my research has not turned up WHICH actual numbers were used on aircraft assigned to VF-6.
--NOTE: this mod is designed for use ONLY on the F4F-3 Wildcat mod I released some ago; NOT for the F4F-4. Totally different aircraft-- If you don't have the Update Pak for the -3 Wildcat, you can get it from Combat Ace:

and/or from my site:

VMF-211, Ewa HI, December, 1941
By Wrench
F4F-3 Wildcat Skin, VMF-211, Ewa HI, for SF/WoV/WoE PTO installs
-Yet another "Pearl Harbor Defender"
(well, almost -- they were all on the ground at the time....)
This skin represents VMF-211 as based at MCAS Ewa, Territority of Hawaii, approximatly December, 1941.
Information I've found in my researches seem to indicate that not all of 211' s aircraft were sent to Wake Island prior
to the Pearl Harbor Attack. So, I offer this skin.
The paint job is still the pre-war non-specular gray, sometimes called "Neutrality Gray", as photographic evidence,
and some references exist that point to the USMC not yet having applied the non-spec blue to the upper surfaces.
Decals represent the standard type as seen on Naval/Marine aircraft of the time, and include BuNums and aircraft
type on the tail.
--NOTE: this mod is designed for use ONLY on the F4F-3 Wildcat mod I released some ago; NOT for the F4F-4. Totally different aircraft--
-= NOTE: You MUST have the Bunyap Weapons Pak of 6/06 to get the WW2 weapons and guns and such =-
-== This aircraft has been tested in SF/WoV/WoE and post-patch WoI (8/08) as well as post 9/08 & 10/08
SF/WoV/WoE. There still are some 'issues' with prop-plane flight models, but there has been a MARKED
improvement!! You use it in these Post Patch Environments at YOUR own risk ==-
Easy to follow instructions in the enclosed readme...
Happy Landings!

VMF-211 "Wake Island Defenders" F4F-3 Wildcat
By Wrench
F4F-3 Wildcat Skin for SF/WoV/WoE Original Release: Nov. 10, 2005, Updated 12/18/08
VMF-211 "Wake Island Defenders"
(looks like this is yet ANOTHER one that never made it here to CA!!!)
==UPDATED 12/18/08!!!!!==
-From the Original Readme:
This skin represents the 12 Wildcats from Marine Fighter Squadron 211, during the Defense of Wake.
I must apologize for the doubts I have about historical accuracy, as the 3 artworks and 2 photos I have or have seen, the only numbers visible are "8" and "11". So I made the assumption that aircraft 1 - 12 were flown off one of the carriers to reinforce the Marine garrison. If this is incorrect, I extend my apologies to any of our Marine brothers and sisters out there playing this.
The placement of the numbers on the upper wing, nose and vert tail is as of my research on the other -3 skins I did, for the approximate same time period. As none of the art or pics showed the tail, I safely assume this is correct.
And as today is the 235 Birthday of the Corps, this is my way of saying "Thank You" for almost 2 and a half centuries of service to our Great Country
Semper Fi!
--Update Info:
This package will replace, in it's entirety, the VMF-211 skin released in 2005.
The update includes a completly REDONE skin, based off new templates I created for some other Wildcat mods, ALL new decals (of the correct font and size) including BuNums and the aircraft name tag on the rudder.
-= NOTE: You MUST have the Bunyap Weapons Pak of 6/06 to get the WW2 weapons and guns and such =-

As usual, there's a nice conscise ReadMe for you to NOT ignore...so please read it!!
Expect the full version of the -3 'cat to appear very shortly...

F4F-4 Wildcat, VMF-223, Skin and Ini Pak
By Wrench
Grumman F4F-4 Wildcat, Skin and Ini Pak for SF/WoV/WoE WW2: PTO Installs
This package contains a new skin, and some minor data & cockpit ini mods for Pasko's F4F-4 "Wildcat".
The skin represents VMF-223 "Bulldogs", as the squadron appeared in August, 1942, upon their arrival at Guadalcanal. They were the first US fighters to land, and be based at, what became known as Henderson Field.
The skin is based off the originals, and was created from a new template, with completly redrawn panel, rivet lines, wear, tear and various scuffs, scrapes, dings, dents and general dirtiness associated with the SoWesPac. Decals for 36 'plane in group numbers' have been included, as has the aircraft type ID, and BuNums. (100% historical accuracy is NOT claimed for the BuNums, as I could only positively confirm the one used on aircraft #13; rest assured, the others ARE actual serial numbers used on F4F-4s, but I'm unable to pin down if any were actually used by the Bulldogs on their aircraft, other then the aforementioned)
The data ini mods include corrected positions and the additions of, running, recognition, formation and landing lights. I've also tweeked the canopy to it opens to it's full extent; swaped out the pilot for a more US looking WW2 guy, and gave him a seat to "park it" on. -NO OTHER CHANGES HAVE BEEN EFFECTD-I!! Flight modeling remains just 'as issued'. Enhanced AI sections have been added, including the "StrafeAI" from post-patch WoI. The engine sound has also been changed (wav included!). Also, it is now fully carrier-qualified, so mission and campaign builders can use it from the CVs.
The cockpit ini has a new WW2 N-3 gunsight tga.
An experimental sound tweek has also been added, creating the ratcheting sound of the landing gear mechanism.
-= NOTE: You MUST have the Bunyap Weapons Pak of 6/06 to get the WW2 weapons and guns and such =-
-== This aircraft has been tested in SF/WoV/WoE and post-patch WoI (8/29/08). There still are some 'issues' with prop-plane flight models, but there has been a MARKED improvement!! You use it in WoI at YOUR own risk ==-
As you'd expect, there's a nice readme enclosed with detailed, step-by-step install instructions. The Commandant of the Corps requires you to do so. The usual "Notes,Comments and General BS" section might make for interestering reading too!
Feedback is requested on the new gear sound, so do let me know how it goes for you?
Good Hunting!

F4U-1C Skin and Ini Upgrade Pak
By Wrench
F4U-1C "Corsair" modification for SF/WoV/WoE WW2 PTO installs
This package is a simple mod to the existing F4U-1C created by Wolf257. It includes mods to the data, loadout and cockpit ini. There is also a new skin, representing VMF-311 in late 1944 to the end of the war time frame. And a few other bits and goodies.
The loadout has been modified from the original, as I've discoverd the -1Cs only used the inboard rocket rails. Also, I've changed the centerline station's drop tank type to use Geo's from his Hellcat. It's much closer to the actual shape and size. -- so you MUST have the latest weapons pak, and/or Geo's Hellcat installed to make use of his tank!!!! (it also makes real good sense to have Wolf's WW2 planes pak installed, to have the -1C Corsair, as well)
Please read the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions, plus notes, comments and general mayhem.
Happy Landings!

AT-6D Texan Yellow Training skin
By pcpilot
Want a little COLOR in SFP1/WOV? This is the "Yellow Training" skin for Bunyaps' AT-6D Texan/Harvard. This is my second attempt at making a skin for SFP1. While this skin draws on some historical facets, it is basically a fictitious paint job for the AT-6D. I just wanted a nice skin, that looked authentic. I adjusted the stock AT-6D decal placement to be more centered and added numbering decals and noseart. It looks good with any nations' markings on it. I also added Wrenchs' notes on adding lights to the Texan/Harvard. Hope ya like it... :)
Version 1.1 added dirty exhaust and tweaked the colors a bit.
NOTE: I figured out what the problem was with the prop disappearing after a moment. In the "Generic" skin folder for the AT-6D, select and copy the two files PropDiskFast and PropDiskSlow. Then paste them in the AT-6D folder itself, not in one of the skin folders. Viola! you now have prop.
