    1. Redrawn Lines, Rivets, etc.. for ErikGen's F-80/T-33/F-94 SF2 KAW set.
      Add your own paint, dirt, details and weathering.
      I made these templates so I could make natural metal/aluminum skins for these planes.
      ------------
      These templates are more like WIPs. They are a bit rough and can use some improvement. They could use some organizing. I don't think I'll be doing anymore to them, so feel free to improve them in any way you wish.
      These templates are Photoshop .psd files at 2048 pixels. They have redrawn lines, rivets and various bits. They can be reduced for those with low spec computers.
      Soulfreak has released an excellent Hi-Rez RT-33A template for the 2 seater Shooting Star at 4096 pixels.
      ------------
      If you want to make the lines and rivets darker or lighter, this template allows you to do that yourself by adjusting the opacity of the lines, rivets or any layer of this file. You can also 'Click' off any layer you don't wish to use, such as the rivets layer, if you don't wish to have any rivets. To use it you must have a paint program that reads/modifies .psd files.
      Then you can adjust the specular, glossiness and/or reflection entries in the skin's texture.ini file to get the skin to your liking.
      I use the poor mans' method of bump mapping. I don't have the needed software or skills to create real bump maps. I use two template layers: one black the other white. The white layer is below the black layer and offset one pixel up or down and one pixel left or right. Then adjust the opacity of each layer to create a 'shadow' effect. When done right it gives the illusion it's 3D.
      ------------

    2. SF2 P/F-61B Black Widow, 319th F(AW)S Skins Pack       7/2/2019
      -For SF2, (Full 5 Merged Reccomended)-
      This is a new skin & decal set for Veltro2K's P-61 Black Widow Night/All Weather interceptor. 
      This skin represents the 318th Fighter (All Weather) Squadron from 1946-1948. They were (originally) based at Mitchell Field (AFB) Long Island, NY, as part of the newly formed Air Defence Command. They and several other night/all weather and day fighter squadrons were responsible for the defence of the northeastern United States. In 1948, they moved to McChord AFB, Washington, transistioned to F-82 Twin Mustangs, and took on Northwest Air Defense duties.
      The skin is in jpg format. All markings are decals. 26 new P-61B serial and Buzz numbers were created for this mod. The serials ARE for late production block 61Bs, but should be considered generic in nature as they represent no particular aircraft from any specific unit. Decal randomization is TRUE. Included is a hangar screen for this skin, too! The SF2 'date switch' is used to turn on this skin in 1946.
      Also included is a new data and avionics inis. A new more compliant FM has been built, and many engine parameters have been adjusted (NOW! With WEP!!). The avionics ini, given game limitations, should be more in line with the actual workings of the SCR-720 air intercept radar. A backup copy of the data ini is included, for safety's sake. (always back up!!). See "Notes" below for a complete listing, and explainitions.
      You must have the original P-61B from either you WW2 installs or a new download from the following URL to apply this skin set to:
      https://combatace.com/files/file/14739-northrop-p-61-black-widow-pack/
      Remember, this is a POST-war skin. The data ini has operational dates adjusted (corrected) accordingly.  
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. Might want to give the "Notes & Other Nonsense" section a once over, as well! :)
      Good Hunting!

    3. Redrawn Lines, Rivets, etc.. for the P-47N-15 Thunderbolt by RussoUK2004.
      It can be used for SF1 or SF2.
      Add your own paint, dirt, details and weathering.
      This template is a Photoshop .psd file at 2048 pixels. It has redrawn lines, rivets and various bits. It can be reduced for those with low spec computers. It was based on RussoUK2004's template.
      The only skin with this template is USAF Natural Metal / Aluminum.
      If you want to make the lines and rivets darker or lighter, this template allows you to do that yourself by adjusting the opacity of the lines, rivets or any layer of this file. To use it you must have a paint program that reads/modifies .psd files.

    4. Strike Fighters 2 - DLC 28: AVIA S-99/S-199 Flaps Fix
      Fix for the bugged flaps of the aircraft Avia S-99 and S-199.
      Fixes the meshes and adjust the data.ini for both planes.
      This is a patch for the file DLCData028.DLC of 121.878.708 bytes
      Found in your SF2\DLC folder.
      For safety backup your original DLCData028.DLC file.
      The distance LODs will not be fixed, so it is advisable to change the distance in S-99.ini and S-199.ini  like below:
      [LOD001] Filename=S-99.lod //Distance=120 Distance=300 Gerwin 4-7-2019

    5. Always, shopping for more air frames due to long running conflict with neighbor Paran, in 2008 the Dhimar Air Force began operating a squadron of Atlas Cheetah Cz acquired from South Africa.
      I'd unzip the file into a temp folder and read the readme files. Its easy to install if you've modded your mod folders before. Basic Mod add on.
      Only tested on Full 5 merged. Mostly I think you'd get by with SF2 original & SF2 Israel to be safe. If you load the plane and files in you mod folders and for example and the big Arabic numbers on the tail don't show up, I'll have to find what CAB file they're in and modify the requirements.
      Original Work:
      Aircraft - Denis Oliveira
      Skin - paulopanz
      Coupi - data, cockpit, loadout.inis
      Decals - Spinners (SF1 Decal Pack)
      Ordnance Shop - 331KillerBee (Weps)
      Mirage IIIO - Thirdwire (DLC Store)
      Sounds - Thirdwire (?)
      This Mod by StoneAxe1492
      I used Gimp for Decal and Skin modding. Notepad of course.
      I took the liberty of modifying the flight characteristics of this plane. If don't like my version simply use the original data file. (It may be a issue with my joystick/throttle thing-muh-jig. I often get insane roll rates with hardly any stick movement & i can't hang.)
      Hope you like it. Let me know if you need help or find a prob.
