SF2 WW2 Spitfire Mk.VIII by Mod Mafia/TMF
 
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
-For WW2 MTO Usage-
 
*Note: There is a distinct possibility that this mod MAY work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs
However, some data ini statements will not be in effect in 1stGen SF/Wo* at any patch level
(with the possible exception of WoI plus it's ExpansionPak -this has not been tested, as I
ONLY mod for SF2). It is designed for use in SF2, at the most current patch level. Your
milage will vary!*
 
A brand "new" model that was never completed when Bpao passed away a few year back. I've
been fortunate enough to be allowed to complete his work, as a member of the Mod Mafia.
 
Skin/Decals set included are for:
 
31st FG, USAAF:
307th FS
308th FS
309th FS
 
Royal Air Force:
92 Squadron
417 Squadron
 
All the units served in the MTO.
 
All skins are in jpg format, Decal Randomization is TRUE. A "new" SF2 version of the
original 'box art' hangar screen and loading screens are included.
 
All markings are decals (excepting National Markings, that are painted on); making it
supremely easy to recreate other squadron users.
A user list is included; operational service dates have been rounded to the closest whole
Year. All weapons, sounds, pilot figure(s) (including the 'fake pilot') are included. For
those squadrons listed in the stock SquadronList.ini, my 'fake SqTail' decal will activate
the Displayed Name on the Loaodut Screen.
The Canopy opens with the Standard Animation Keystroke ™, Shift/0
Damage textures are set for DDS; tga versions are supplied for 1stGen users that attempt to
use it in SF/Wo*.
 
When 'in game', you'll see "Spitfire Mk.VIII (TMF)" in the aircraft selection drop-down
window. This will diferentiate it from any other Mk.VIIIs you may (or may not) have .
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So,
please -READ- them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too for futher explinations,
clarifactions, illuminations and so forth.
 
Good Hunting!

For Oli; you are sorely missed!

SF2 Republic F-105G Thunderchief Wild Weasel by ArmorDave
 
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Full-5 Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: the destroyed model referenced herein 'looks' for the stock destroyed F-105D lod. So, at the very least you MUST have either SF2E, or SF2V to gain access to said destroyed model. Hence the Full 4/5 Merged reccomendation*
 
Some major upgrades to ArmorDave F-105G "Wild Weasel" Thunderchief, bring it in line with SF2 at the Full-5 Merged/Latest Patch level (as of July 2012).
 
This mod is desinged to REPLACE any eariler SF2 update/upgrade versions of AD's aircraft that may be availalbe.
 
Skins remain in bmp format (as they're not excpetionally large in size), and Decal Randomization is TRUE. Damage textures are the older tga versions.
The data ini has all new FM parameters, loadouts have been 'adjusted' for Game usage (and may not reflect Real World situations, but =WILL= reflect Game World situations). New engine sound, and some other small tweeks. A new SF2 version of my 'box art' Hangar screen is included.
No weapons are included, other than the drop tanks, as I've referenced all stock 3W items.
See the "Notes" section for more info on the changes.
 
When 'in game', you'll see on the Aircraft Selection Drop-Down Menu
 
F-105G Thunderchief WW (AD)
 
This will differentiate this aircraft from any others you may (or may not) have.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please -READ- them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too for futher explinations, clarifactions, illuminations and so forth. And notes about any SF2V campaign that may use this aircraft; some slight editing of the campaign ini WILL be necessary due to the 'name change'.
 
A full listing of credits, as always, is below the Install Instructions.
 
Good Hunting!

Iceland 02 Full-Scale Terrain v2.0
 
by Baltika
 
***********************************
 
This is a major upgrade to my little Iceland terrain.
 
 
 
New features:-
 
Forest tiles and trees - yup, there are now some forests on Iceland, just as in reality.
 
Extensive targetisation upgrade, with many newly targetised areas.
 
Several new terrain tile types.
 
Network of NATO radar stations, with accurate operational dates.
 
Re-tiling of some coastal areas to fix tsunamis.
 
Some terrain HFD work for greater accuracy.
 
Custom environment file to create snowstorm conditions for inclement weather. Cheers to Stary for that one ;-)
 
 
No substitute for SF2:NA, I know, but Merry Christmas everybody ;-)
 
 
This will likely be the final version of this terrain. But, if anybody spots any show-stopping bugs, please drop me a line at Combatace and I'll try to sort them out.
 
 
 
Slainthe!

***********************************
 
 
Thanks to:-
 
Gepard for his terrain tutorials, which started this adventure off all those years ago. Also for his WoE European style runways which are included here.
 
JSFAggie for his Highway runway Mod, which has been altered and modded for use as glacier-based FARPs.
 
Brain32 for sound advice on creating terrain tiles. Cheers mate;-) Your hi-res lava tile has not been used here, but may see the light of day if I ever manage a hi-res set for this little terrain.
 
CA_Stary for being terrain guru extraordinaire. Also, thanks to Stary for his Heavy Snowfall mod for WoX series. I have included this for Iceland terrain and updated it for SF2 shaders, so you will get near-whiteout blizzard conditions for inclement weather setting. Happy flying ;-)
 
Thanks also to Brain32 and CA_Stary for their forest tiles and trees, which I have adapted for use as Iceland's sparse forests. Cheers guys ;-)
 
GrimViper, for pointing out that Iceland does actually have trees and forests. . . Cheers mate, hope you like it ;-)
 
Wrench, Dave & all the gang at CA for invaluable advice on how to make things work, garnered over the years and hopefully put to good effect here.
 
MajorLee, Deuces, Edward and anyone else who made a terrain mod and posted about how to do it. Thanks!
 
TK for making the whole bag of bolts hang together.
 
 
***********************************
 
 
Installation instructions:-
 
Delete your old "ICELAND02" folder. This version is a complete replacement for any previous version.
 
Unzip the package to your desktop, or wherever is convenient.
 
Drop the "ICELAND02" folder into your Username\Saved Games\Thirdwire\StrikeFighters2\Terrains folder.
 
If there is no terrains folder in your mod folder, create one and drop the ICELAND02 folder into it.
 
Drop the "Effects" folder into your Username\Saved Games\Thirdwire\StrikeFighters2\ folder.
 
That's it! Go fly, and fight for the liberation of Iceland.
 
This terrain has been completed using SF2 November 2011 patch. It is not supported on WoX series or earlier patch levels. But, if you really must try, use the files included in the "Use_in_WoX" folder for SF1 series. Your mileage may vary.
 
 
If you use a custom environmental mod, bear in mind that any changes must be made to the ICELAND02_ENVIRONMENTSYSTEM.INI file included here. Just make sure your new file includes the following line:-
 
InclementEffect=BlizzardEffect
 
Or else, you will lose the snowfall weather conditions. It is set up this way so as not to interfere with any other environmental mod you may use.

Curtiss P-40B Tomahawk, USAAC Early War
 
-- Something for the PTO players --
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*There is a distinct possibility that this mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, due to the excessive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment. You try so at your own risk; no support is/will be available for such attempts*
 
This is a compliation pak of several of my 1stGen USAAC/AAF P-40B mods, recreating USAAC P-40Bs at the beginning of WW2. Based off Wolf's original RAF Tomahawk, now nationalized for American usege. This package contains 3 skin and decal sets:
 
47th Pursuit Squadron, Bellow Field, Hawaii;
"Pearl Harbor Defender" -with Historical Markings.
 
"USAAC";
representing the 24th Purusit Group in the Phillipines, Dec 8, 1941. Marking are 98% accurate - those units "closest" to the expected War Zone had slightly different markings they US Mainland units. There are 100 "plane-in-group' numbers, represening the 24th's 4 Squadrons.
 
"The Sky Legion";
a fanciful skin based on the film "Sky Captain and the World of Tommorrow". Just for fun! If you don't want it showing up, simply rename the textureset.ini, and delete the entry from the P-40B.ini.
 
The markings on BOTH the 47th PS and 24th PG are correct for the period. All skins are in jpg format, Decal Randomization is TRUE. A new SF2 version of the original 'box art' hangar screen is included . New DDS damage textures. A destroyed model is included, as is the in-line 'CRSPRP' engine sound (very Allison like!) "Time in Service" has been limited to 1940 start year, and a 'guesstimated' end service date of May, 1941. They were all pretty much used up by then, and replaced by D,E,and F models in the SoWesPac. All running lights are 100% correct for this aircraft.
 
A semi-SF2 compliant Flight Model was "fiddled into being", but it does needs further fine tuning, as always, by experts. Even though THIS version is a non-exported aircraft, a Userlist.ini was created for it. Allowed Mission statements now more reflect the actual usage philosophy of the time frame. (no Strike, Anti-ship, or Sweep) The aircraft was designed more for a 'point defence interceptor', and has no provisions for external stores of any kind.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. Original readmes, when discoverable, have been included for historical purposes.

I modded the MiG-29 from The Mirage Factory to make it look like a fictional fighter and recon plane for the japanese air self defense force.
 
 
BACKGROUND
The change in the government of North Korea (KJI jr. substituting his father) led to a fear from a neighbour who was continuing his nuclear weapon program and becoming an unstable factor in the surroundings of Japan. China, the big brother to NK, kept influencing KJI not to try anything that could lead to a greater war in the far east. Although Pyongyang assures not to threaten peace in Eastern Asia, the ministry of defense of Japan decided to act. The ministry of defense created a new squadron, the 65th Hikotai, stationed in Miho. The squadron badge was composed by a classic origami figure.
 
The decision on which plane to choose for this new squadron did not take long. Two russian MiG-29 were forced to land in Japan because one of them suffered engine problems. The JASDF used this opportunity to take a closer look on this plane. It's easy maintenance and the low demand of time needed to get the plane ready were the main reasons for choosing the plane.
 
 
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Drop the folders into your MODS Folder. If asked to overwrite, click yes.
 
 
CREDITS
 
Big thanks go to Crusader for allowing me to release this plane.
 
All credit belongs to ALL the members of The Mirage Factory for their fantastic work they did with this model.
Special credit goes to Oliver Anguille for his effort and hard work. May he rest in peace.
 
Also big thanks to dast24 for porting the plane to SF2-Standards.
 
Old readme from the original SFP1-Model is included.
 
For any further questions don't hesitate to contact me.

This is a mod of the EF-2000 Typhoon from Bongodriver to make it look like fighterplane from the japanese air self defense force.
 
BACKGROUND:
In March 2007, the JASDF opened a competition for the next generation plane. Among the competitors are the Super Hornet, the F-35 and the Typhoon. The Rafale was not part of the competition because of the fear, that american planes could be favourized. Nevertheless, Eurofighter threw the Typhoon into competition. There will be no decision until November 2011(Janes Information Group).
 
The EFJ Typhoon represents a possible version of the japanese Typhoon in the case it should become the winner of the competition. The plane will enter service in 2013 becoming part of the 3rd and the 6th Hikotai, replacing the single-seater F-2. While the 3rd Hikotai wears the standard grey camo, the 6th Hikotai wears the standard two-tone blue camo also worn by the F-2.
 
 
INSTALLATION:
Simply drop the Folders into your Strike Fighters Mods Folder.
 
 
CREDITS:
 
Thanks to Brain32 for adapting the plane to SF2-Standards and to Bongodriver for creating this bird!
 
ORIGINAL CREDITS:
 
A BIG BIG thanks to
 
USAFMTL (and various partners in crime) for his help and guidance and support.
 
Jimmybib and Sundowner for initial consultation on skinning and all credit to Sundowner for producing the final skins which are superb.
 
Moonjumper for his advice on some avionics matters
 
All of you for you encouragement and kind words through it's development
 
My Producers....etc...etc :) Oh god I'm going to cry..
 
Anyway I decided to release slightly early because I'd like some of you to enjoy tweaking this thing, theres alot of talent out there who can make this thing great.
 
 
Absolutely no part of this is to be used in payware but moddify the model any way you wish and re distribute in your own freeware mods as you wish with no permission required from me, just give me the relevant credit.
 
Enjoy...
