This is a full IcelandNA Terrain in Standar Resolution like the other origninal sceneries, to replace the original High resolution StrikeFighters2 NorthAtlantic IcelandNA, with all airbases structures and targets, as far i test it.
 
For this mod i used:
Baltika Iceland02 Full-scale Terrain v1.0
(as base file for the replacement file)
 
Third Wire Desert and Germany Original Terrains
(as complement of Baltika Iceland02 Full-scale Terrain v1.0)
 
Third Wire Strike Fighters 2 Extractor
(To extract the necessary files)
 
Canadair .Cat Pack Creator
(To Create the File)
I used Baltika Iceland02 Full-scale Terrain v1.0, then i extract desert and germany terrain files and use the texture files as complement for Iceland02 Full-scale Terrain and then re pack it to make a replace file insted of the high definition North Atlantic Terrain.
is not an original file it is a remade file

SF2 "MiG Alley" Wings Over Korea (KAW v1.2) Hi-Res 1920X1080 Menu Screens and Music v7
By Viper 04/26/2020
Note: I removed all the nation sounds from this Menu packs for size reasons. If you intend to install the "VIPER63A HQ Menu Sounds" pack, please install that pack first. Installing the HQ Sound pack over the Menu pack may overwrite some of the menu specific music files. You can always re-install this menu pack to get the menu specific theme music back.
I made these upgraded alternate "Korean Air War" themed Menu screens to go with Do335's "SF2 Wings Over Korea" package!
 
Pleae unzip the compressed file and preview the new screens before installing them. I recommend doing this as there are some alternate screens I have in there that you might like better.
 
If you choose to install these screens, I recommend that you back up your FLIGHT and MENU folders in the SF2 Mod folder you're installing this mod into. Just in case you want to go back to your original setup.
 
To install, simply unzip and copy the uncompressed FLIGHT and MENU folders to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder.

This model represents the Kang Ding class frigate of the Republic of China Navy, in service from 1996 to present. They are a version of the La Fayette class built for Taiwan. Six Kang Ding class ships are now in ROCN service.
 
The Kang Ding has slightly different structure and electronics from the La Fayette, and entirely different weapon systems. She is armed with a 76mm gun, two Bofors 40mm guns, Phalanx CIWS, Sea Chaparral point defense SAMs, and Hsiung Feng II anti-ship missiles.
 
Note: You will require a capital ship to create a proper task group in game, such as the Kee Lung class (Taiwan's most powerful warship), available here. Other modern ROCN vessels are available here.
 
If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or constructive criticisms regarding this model, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you!

SF2 "Aces over Vietnam" Hi-Res Silver Border 1024x768 Menu Screens and Music!
By Viper
 
Special thanks to Homefies, Spectre8750, Stary and eburger68 for their contributions to Combatace!
 
This mod includes custom "vietnam Era" themed menu screens, pilots and (w/ 60s) music. This package also contains optional/alternate/upgraded Campaigns screens for both stock and expansions. There are many alternate screens in the Menu folder, so take a look and if you like some thing better, rename them to default names and use them instead.
 
If you choose to install these screens, I recommend that you back up your CAMPAIGNS, FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders in the SF2 Mod folder you're installing this mod into. Just in case you want to go back to your original setup.
Also note: If you are able - meaning, if you don't already have something in the Menu folder that you want to keep or is needed by some other mod you installed. It would be better to "Rename" your original Menu folder and let this package installs cleanly. Only if you can...
 
*** To install...
 
Note: My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win97 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...
C:\Users\<your_id>\Saved Games\Thirdwire\StrikeFighter2 Vietnam\
 
1) Backup/Copy your CAMPAIGNS, FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders in your StrikeFighter2 Vietnam mod folder.
 
2) Uncompress the new Menu package and browse the content. As usual, there are alot of alternate screens in the Menu folder you may like better.
 
3) Copy the FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders in your StrikeFighter2 Vietnam mod folder.
 
*** Optional Campaigns screens...
 
1) The "Campaigns" folder contain new images for the Stock Vietnam Campaigns. This is optional, but I think they look better than the stock pix. Copy the Campaigns folder into your StrikeFighter2 Vietnam mod folder.
 
2) The "!Optional" folder contain new images for the Vietnam Expand Air and Ground War. Read the "Read-Me" in that folder for more detail. Copy the Campaigns folder from the !Optional folder into your StrikeFighter2 Vietnam mod folder.
 
That's it...
 
*** To Uninstall...
 
1) Delete the CAMPAIGNS, FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders and restore the ones you backed up.
 
That's it!
 
Enjoy!

SF2 KAW Fleet Air Arm "What If" Aircraft Pack 3/30/2015
 
*For SF2 -ONLY-!! Full-5 Merged Reccomended*
 
This package contains 2 "What If..." aircraft as used (???) by the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm during the Korean War.
They are:
 
Hawker Seahawk F.1A
898 NAS, HMS Ocean
 
Vought Corsair Mk.V (F4U-4B)
1841 NAS, HMS Theseus
1830 NAS, HMS Glory (1953)
 
The Seahawk has gotten a major revamp from the very old 1stGen version released several thousand years ago. It should be noted at this time, the Seahawk has "some issues" on recovering back on the boat. See Notes for more info. Hopefully, someone can fix this.
It also gets a 'new' cockpit, courtesy of Stary.
The Corsair has 2 skins, both with Korean era "invasion stripes", but 1841 NAS is in USN DGNB. Essentialy, a RN marked USN bird, carrying UK ordanance (ok, the 60# rockets). 1830 NAS has been repainted to "standard" FAA camo (grey uppers, "sky" unders). The SF2 date switch is NOT used for either of these skins. Both use the same pools of decals.
On all skins, all markings are decals. Recal randomization is set to "TRUE"
 
When in-game, on the aircraft selection drop down you'll see:
 
Corsair Mk.V
SeaHawk F.1A
 
Weapons, pilots, and such are provided for the Seahawk. With the exception of a 'new' rocket rack for the Corsair, it reuses most everything already in the KAW Weapons Pack.
As all markings are decals; this is make it easy for other texture artists to change the ship ID letter, and create other fictional squadrons.
For the Corsair only, the Standarn Animation Keystrokes are used for wingfold and canopy (Shift/9 & Shift/0). The Seahawks have no working canopy or wingfolds (it's an old model, what can I say?).
The Seahawk also gets new DDS damage textures, and many smaller 'tweeks' (again, see Notes below).
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Also, as usual, give the "Notes and Comments" section a read, too. In the Seahawk's aircraft folder, is my original (2008) what-if readme.
 
Happy Landings & Have Fun!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
This addon works only with included WeaponPACK. All of weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this weapon pack.
 
Standard commands for activating Cobra features:
 
AIRBRAKES - sun filter/shader on off - just for fun no airbrakes so empty animation slot for use.
 
ARRESTING HOOK - jump from pilot station to gunner station.
 
LANDING GEAR - skid search light on/off at any speed. Dont forget to retract it because you wil be not able to shoot.
 
A2A mode - gunner station TSU guncross for turret.
 
A2Ground mode - pilot M73 cross.
 
ANIMATION 7 - turret doors
 
ANIMATION 8 - ammo bay dooors
 
ANIMATION 9 - gunner door (ext and cockpit view)
 
ANIMATION 10 - pilot door (ext and cockpit view)
 
ANIMATION 1 - NVG (It is not nvg but some greent filter) If you don't like it disable it in cockpitini file.
 
WARNING!
 
This is totaly new file. I highly recomend to backup your old files from AH-1G mod and old AH-1 S mod. OR just delete all old files.
This is totaly new files and will not work in many parts with old.
 
In 1974 Israel aquired for test 6 war weary AH-1G Cobra. It saw some combat in newly formed squadrons. After positive feedback abput new aircraft it was sent back to USA for upgrades.
In 1979-1980 Israel received back rebuilded to S(mod) standard 6 aircrafts (rebuild of G model they purchased in 1975. 3 were sent to 160Sq and 3 to 161Sq. Zahal used them during operation Peace for Galilee in 1982. Finaly around 1987 these 6 aircrafts were also rebuild into newer model. One original S(Mod) is still in museum.
 
 
 
For take off: Around 75% of throttle vector (small needle on RPM clock in cockpit should be like 65degree up) - (default ctrl + ) and then increase power to 70-85% (or more for quick lift) and pull controll stick little and snake will take off. Then reduce throttle vector as needed and reduce power to 69%. It should fly around 110kts now. 69% is about cruising speed.
 
When on the ground you can see rotating blades for pitch and roll. Just additional and unnecesary thing (not visible so much when flying) but it is possible so it is there. Not working like i want but better then nothing.
 
There are two different pylons on inboard stations one for rocketpods one for gunpods. Just to have a proper angle of fire with GP. It is not proper for real model but in my opinion best what can be done for SF engine. Rocket pods are ok with correct angle on inboard stations.
 
 
 
Weapons.
All weapons are reskined. TOW models are new.
XM158 and M200 launchers. Gunpods.
TOWs BGM-71A/B/C/D.
 
One more thing. I am using mostly standard weapon effects.
Make sure to edit it your way if you decide to use this weapons.
 
Pilots:
I am using repainted helopilots by OldDiego.
Some pilots models might be too big for this helo.
 
Instalation:
 
Copy all files into specific folders.
 
 
 
Enjoy.
Report Bugs.
Edit your way.

A small modification/Tweeks pack for Skippybings' Westland Wyvern S.4 Royal Navy turboprop attack aircraft.

SF2 RNNAS Hawker Seafury Skin Pack 4/6/2015
 
*For SF2 -ONLY-!! Full-5 Merged Reccomended*
 
This package contains a skin for the recently released (skippybing) Hawker Seafury. You can find the base aircraft at the following URL (and you'll need it to add these skins to):
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/15390-sf2-kaw-hawker-sea-fury-sb-pack/
Reminder: this is ONLY a skin/decal pak!
 
This skin represents RNNAS (MLD) Seafurys aboard HNLMS Karel Doorman in 1951. These are from 860 Squadron, in their standard RN FAA scheme. All markings, execpting the service name on the tail, are decals (due to running out of meshes). Decal randomization is TRUE. These represent the late batches as delivered to the MLD (#s 25-48, although 10-24 also carried this scheme).
 
Also included, from eburger's SF2NA Ulitmate CV Pack, is a slightly modified version of the HNLMS Karel Doorman itself. Hull and deck decals have been activated. See "Notes" for change log.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them after Unzipping but =BEFORE= installing!! Also, as usual, give the "Notes and Comments" section a read, too.

SF2 Post-War TB-25J Mitchell Pak 4/5/2015
 
-- Something just for fun! --
 
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
**Note: This mod references the stock destroyed Il-28. Also, due to modifications to various inis, this mod will -NOT- work in 1stGen game installs at any patch level. This has not/cannot/will not be tested by me.**
 
This little mod represents TB-25J (glass nosed) Mitchells in serivce with the USAF in the post-WW2 time frame. Many of these aircraft were retained and converted to personal transports, navigational & multi-engine trainers, or squadron 'hacks' up until the late 1950s. The aircraft is completely unarmed. However, "those that know how" can readily turn the aircraft to it's original status and function. (see Notes for details).
 
The aircraft is finished in Natural Metal (withOUT the late 50s white fues top or black "anti-soot" nacelles), and carries standard post-1947 USAF marking, including Buzz Numbers. The skin is in jpg format and all markings are decals. Decal Randomization is TRUE. Engine sounds, pilot figures, and a "couple of other things" are included.
 
When in game, you'll see
 
TB-25J Mitchell (v2k)
 
on the Aircraft Selection Drop down menu. This will differentiate it from any other B-25s you may (or may not) have. (even though there ARE no other TB-25s!!)
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!!
Remember, an aircraft like this one, saved the world from The Giant Claw!!!

SF2 WW2 ETO Republic P-47D "Bubbletop" Thunderbolt (0.5 Beta) 12/15/2014
 
= For SF2 (Full4/5 Merged RECCOMENDED!)
 
*This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs. It was built for SF2 ONLY!!.*
 
This is a BRAND NEW aircraft, brought to you by Cocas Aircraft Factory & Co.
We are calling this "version 0.5 beta", as there are a few minor issues with the LOD, and
these will repaired as Real Life ™ allows. But, we wanted to get them out into the
hands of our WW2 End Users ™ for their examinations and so forth. See Notes below for a
more detailed explanation.
 
REMINDER: this pack contains ETO Bubbletop Jugs =ONLY=!!! Other theatres/users will follow
as time permits, and as they are completed.
 
This pak contains, as stated above, a NEW aircraft, representing the Bubbletop P-47D (-25
thru -30-ish) Thunderbolt as seen in late 1943 through war's end.
Skins included are:
 
8th AF
56th Fighter Group :
 
61st FS (early 44, OD/G)
62nd FS (mid/late 44-45), camo)
63rd FS (sometime in 44, NM)
 
and
 
9th AF:
379th FS, 362nd FG (full D-Day markings, NM)
 
All markings are decals. Decal randomization is set to TRUE.
Please note, Squadron or Group specific markings -ARE- painted on, as are the Invasion
Stripes. There are some nose arts.
 
All the 1stGen Hangar and/or Loading screens were either rebuilt to SF2-spec, or created
new for this package. They are in jpg format, and fit SF2 formatting. Damage textures are
also new, in DDS format. There are 2 different Loading Screens, and you can swap them as
you see fit.
The canopy opens/closes with the Standard Animation Keystroke ™, Shift/0
Pilots, sounds, weapons are all included.
Templates for this aircraft ARE included, for those skinners that wish to do other units,
or other theatres, or Allied users (and see my appeal in the "Notes" section <grin>). The
template is in the main zip of the package, so don't forget to move it OUT of your mods
folder or things might get confusing!
 
As there are several P-74D Bubbletops available, when in game you'll see:
 
P-47D-20 Thunderbolt (CAF)
 
on the aircraft selection dropdown menu. This will diferentiate it from any others that
you may (or may not) have.
As some units are repeated, those with the mods I built for Wolf's Jugs, can choose to
keep those, or remove them to storage.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE
read them!!! Also, as usual, give the "Notes" section a read, too.

http://combatace.com/files/file/15390-sf2-kaw-hawker-sea-fury-sb-pack/
 
Reminder: this is =ONLY= a skin/decal pak!
 
These 2 skins represent Royal Canadian Navy Seafurys in the 1950s. Both are finished in the "2-tone Grey".
You have skins for the following squadrons:
 
803 NAS, crica 1951
870 NAs (aka VF-870) circa 1953
 
The SF2 'date switch' is active, so VF-870 will turn on in 1953.
All markings, execpting the fin flash, are decals (due to running out of meshes). Decal randomization is TRUE for both skins.
Also included, from eburger's SF2NA Ulitmate CV Pack, are slightly modified versions of the HMCS Bonaventure & Magnificent. See "Notes" for change log.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them after Unzipping but =BEFORE= installing!! Also, as usual, give the "Notes and Comments" section a read, too.

SF2 WW2 Brooklyn Class Light Cruiser 4/8/2015
 
= For SF2 (Full5 Merged RECCOMENDED!)
 
This is a mod of Foxmonter's ARA General Belgrano BACK to it's original USN WW2 version (pretty much!).
Data ini edits remove the missile lauchers, but all gun aramament remains intact.
The skin has been repainted to remove any post-war markings, and decals created for the hull numbers and ship names.
It is as fully SF2NA compliant as we can make it!
Guns, sounds, and the hull decals are all included.
 
This version will NOT conflict with any other ships of this type (DAT), as unique identifiers have been used to seperate and differentiate them from each other.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Also, as usual, PLEASE!! give the "Notes" section a read, too.

Boeing 767 model Star Wars R2D2 skin

SF2 AD-4N (Late) Skyraider, 1950s USN 4/12/2015
 
= For SF2 (Any & All, Full- Merged Prefered) =
 
*Note: must have SF2:V as part of your merged install to access the A-1H lod used herein. This, like several of the KAW Skyraiders with the "_3W suffix, is based off the stock A-1H lod.*
 
Something slightly different, for USN Skyraider squadrons in the mid-1950s. I basiclly did this as I got tired of seeing DGNB AD-4Ns parking on deck intermixed with Grey/White jets and such (even though that IS historically correct). But, some early models DID survive the switch, and operated in the Gull Grey/White. This is one of them...
 
The skin herein represents:
 
VA-216 "Black Diamonds" aboard USS Yorktown (CVA-10) circa 1956/57
 
The skin is in jpg format. All markings, excepting the tail Black Diamonds, are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE.The BuNums, while correct for this model, are not specific to any squadron, and should be considerd 'generic' in nature.
Wingfold and canopy are controled via the Standard Animiation Keystrokes ™. Shift/9 for the wings, and Shift/0 for the window.
All weapons used are stock in-game items, excepting the APS-31 radar pod and ALT-7 ECM pod.
I'm trying out a different "style" for the Hangar screen; I hope you like it.
 
On the Aircraft selection drop down, you'll see
 
AD-4N Skyraider (Late) (3W)
 
This will differentiate it from the -4NL and other -4 marks. The "3W" indicates use of the stock 3W lod.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them ....
 
Good Hunting!

SF2 WW2 PTO Republic P-47D "Bubbletop" Thunderbolt (0.5 Beta) 12/15/2014
 
= For SF2 (Full4/5 Merged RECCOMENDED!)
 
*This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs. It was built for SF2 ONLY!!.*
 
This is a BRAND NEW aircraft, brought to you by Cocas Aircraft Factory & Co.
We are calling this "version 0.5 beta", as there are a few minor issues with the LOD, and these will repaired as Real Life ™ allows. But, we wanted to get them out into the hands of our WW2 End Users ™ for their examinations and so forth. See Notes below for a more detailed explaination.
 
REMINDER: this pack contains PTO Bubbletop Jugs =ONLY= !!! Other theatres/users will follow as time permits, and as they are completed.
 
This pak contains, as stated above, a NEW aircraft, representing the Bubbletop P-47D (-25 thru -30-ish) Thunderbolt as seen in 1944 through war's end.
 
Skin(s) included are:
 
41st FS, 35th FG (circa late 1944, Philippines)
 
All markings are decals, excepting the 41st's nose marking (which is painted on, as are the rudder stripes). Decal randomization is set to TRUE.
Damage textures are also new, in DDS format.
I'm trying out a 'new style' of hangar screen, so I hope you like it.
The canopy opens/closes with the Standard Animation Keystroke ™, Shift/0
Pilots, sounds, weapons are all included.
 
As there are several P-74D Bubbletops available, when in game you'll see:
 
P-47D-25 Thunderbolt (CAF)
 
on the aircraft selection dropdown menu. This will diferentiate it from any others that you may (or may not) have.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Also, as usual, give the "Notes" section a read, too.
 
Happy Landings!
