This mod should be used in conjunction with the "night lights for City" mod released by me.
Quick update to the entire Kamchatka 250m map to have night lights in cities.
 
Installation:
Before you begin. Backup your files
Extract the ini files to Kamchatka terrain folder. Note this only works for Kamchatka terrain patched with Stary's 250m tileset PLUS the crash fix update released by me.
 
 

The purpose of this mod is to enable some light decoration of city in SF2, which does not provide such feature out of box.
This mod does not add real light source due to poor graphical outcome. It works in similar fashion as the old Janes F-15E Strike Eagle by adding some always bright points to landscape.
 
 
Please note the mod itself does not automatically add lights to maps. You will need to follow the instruction inside the zip add lights using the Mue's Target Area Editor in link below. There is some step to add to the _TYPES.ini for each terrain before you can do that. Hence please follow the instruction below carefully.
 
Mue's Target Area Editor - as part of the tool box
 
I have included an effect file which could be called in _types.ini in terrain folder for anyone interested in experimenting night lights with real light source. This is currently disabled due to poor visual outcome.

This is a bug fix for the random crashing issue of the Kamchatka 250m tile set update released by Stary in below link
Kamchatka 250m version with adjusted tileset etc - Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements - CombatACE
 
If you are using the original Kamchatka 2.0 terrain released by Baltika, this is not applicable and you should avoid using it.
 
 
Beautiful landscape tile. However it crashes randomly when flying in certain area or dropping bombs to airfields. The key issue is some incorrect file assignment in DATA.ini and how SF2 handles files in different season folders.
It took me a long time to figure out. Hopefully this can help you as well. 
 
Installation:
1. Before everything, backup your KAMCHATKA_DATA.INI in your terrains folder. In case this breaks something else you have modded.
2. Extract the file contents and overwrite file if asked to terrains/KAMCHATKA folder
 

Soviet Spitfires x 2 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 
This is a simple mod of the stock Spitfire IXc and clipped-wing Spitfire IXe to create flyable Spits in service with the Soviet Air Force in the 1943-1945 timeline. I've chosen to put these into the 'what-if' hangar due to the very generic nature of the 'winter' schemes and markings but please note that both of the 'summer' schemes are based on real aircraft and include Spitfires flown by the famous pilots Juan Lario Sanchez (Yellow 3) and Alexander Karpov (White 32).

INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the Spitfire9c_Sov and Spitfire9e_Sov folders into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the Spitfire9c_Sov and Spitfire9e_Sov folders into your Decals folder.
That's it! 
Please note that you will need a suitable 'prop' pilot. 
Please also note that you should really create a new nation for a WW2 Soviet Union. Experienced WW2 players will probably already have one but check your nation name as it might be different from my preferred nation name of 'SovietWW2'.
 
CREDITS
As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim.
Extra special thanks to Starfighter2 for the Spitfire cockpit.
And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.
Regards

Version 1 - August 23rd, 2023
 

Simple skin pack with a few sets of skins for Navy versions of A-7 Corsair II - A/B/C/E that flew during the air war over Vietnam between 1967-1974.
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) 
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.
To run this mod you need also access to TW lod files from SF2 Series.
userlist.ini included covering correct years of use of specific models.
Skins cover the years 1967-1974  CVW deployments during Vietnam War. All squadrons year by year.
The pack contains skins and decals. 
Skins sets are made in pairs - two squadrons for CVW for a specific year. 
I could not find all the correct BuNo / Modex but I am considering this as ongoing work in progress, so one day if I will learn something new there will be an update. Also, not all squadrons have CAG markings, sometimes i could not find info on markings...so I left it, again there might be an update if new info appears.
I believe that the pack after unp[backing is around 2.6GB. So make some space for SLUF.
 
All skins, new bump maps, specular, and decals are made by me. 
 
report bugs.
enjoy. 
Jarek Hereda.
 
P.S.
This is huge, a lot of copy-paste for me, all decals.ini, textur.ini, etc...So if you will find that one decal is not showing up or something...just check first - maybe there is some bug in *.ini file. Fix, post solution, etc... So others can benefit from your fix. 
I put a lot of effort and time, and checked everything twice..still gremlins can appear. 
 
PART TWO - OPTIONAL MOD FILES.
This is only for experienced users!
who know how to improve the game for themselves, are not afraid of experimenting, and know how to go back to stock ini files if something is not okay.
This is based on my mod that unifies USN equipment (300 gal tanks, MERs, TERs etc.)
optional mod files include reworked data files - correcting usage of weapons, fuel tanks, etc. adding some specific tanks, and stations for specific launchers adding fake pilot mods etc, 
additional fake pilot mods (legendary fake pilot mod required!)
additional loadout ini files - for a better game experience 
additional weapons by Ravenclaw to cover weapons needed in new loadout ini files.
D704 refueling pod/fuel tank by Nyghtfall from his great A-4 pack.. 
I highly recommend picking up piece by piece from optional mods, testing, and deciding whether to use them or not.
Use the optional mod as a separate mod or as a reference to make your own.
