    3. SF2 MiG-23 & MiG-27 Floggers - Part 2
       
      This mod supplies a collection of MiG-23 & MiG-27 Floggers, created by ArmourDave and The Mirage Factory, and heavily modded by Lindr2 for SFP1. (These are not mods of the 3rdWire Floggers supplied in the SF2 titles.) All have been converted and updated to SF2 standards. Also included with this mod are all the weapons, sounds, pilots, and seats that you will need to install and use any of the aircraft supplied with this mod.
       
      This mod consists of three parts:
       
      Part 1: 1st Generation MiG-23s (MiG-23S, Mig-23M, MiG-23ME, MiG-23MF,
      MiG-23MF, MiG-23UB)
       
      Part 2: 2nd Generation MiG-23s (MiG-23ML, MiG-23MLA, MiG-23MLAE, MiG-23P,
      MiG-23PD, MiG-23-98, MiG-23UM)
       
      Part 3: Ground Attack MiG-23s (MiG-23B, MiG-23BN) & MiG-27s (MiG-27,
      MiG-27D, MiG-27K, MiG-27M, MiG-27ML)
       
      Each of the three parts includes all the decals, pilots, sounds, effects that you will need for the aircraft in that part. This is the second part. The WEAPONS are contained ONLY IN THIS PART -- THE 2ND PART.
       
      These aircraft can be used in SF2, SF2E, SF2V, or SF2I. To install and use them, you should ensure that your SF2 installation is patched to at least the Dec2009 patch level. See below for installation instructions.
       
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~
      Installation
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~
       
      Please note that installation of these aircraft will overwrite & replace the default 3rdWire versions included in the various SF2 titles. I recommend that you first REMOVE the 3rdWire MiG-23 and MiG-27 versions - even if you haven't modded them -- before installing these alternate versions.
       
      To install, simply drag the following folders to your SF2 Mods Folder (NOT the folder that the game installs to):
       
      \Effects
      \Flight
      \Objects
      \Sounds
       
      By default your Mod Folder should be located here:
       
      Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\[username]\My Documents\ThirdWire\[Game]\
      Windows Vista: \Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\[Game]\
      Windows 7: \Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\[Game]\
       
      ...where [username] is the account you log into within Windows and [Game] is the name of the particular game mod folder that you're moving the files to.
       
      If the aircraft are not showing up in your Single Mission Aircraft menu, then you didn't install all the bits correctly. And remember, the WEAPONS are contained ONLY IN THE 2ND PART, which means that you MUST DOWNLOAD THE 2ND PART TO GET THE WEAPONS.

      A Few Notes About This Mod
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
       
      Those familiar with Lindr2's Flogger packages for SFP1 will rightly recognize that this updated mod builds on his earlier efforts. Although I have largely followed Lindr2's lead in assembling this package, there are some noteworthy differences between his SFP1 collections and this one:
       
      1) Different Engine Sounds & Afterburner TGAs
       
      I have used different engine sounds and afterburner TGAs to give the various engines used by different models distinct sounds and appearances.
       
      2) NATO Code Names
       
      The aircraft names do include the NATO code names, whereas Lindr2's SFP1 versions did not use them at all. Also, the Air-to-Air weapons use both NATO and Soviet names/designations (e.g., "R-73 AA-11 Archer").
       
      3) Wider range of Skins/Nations
       
      You will find a wider range of skins used to represent more nations, drawing on the various one-off skins that have been released by other modders.

      This package largely consists of work done by others and released previously in other packages. All I did was assemble the package, update the bits to SF2 standards, and make minor adjustments and tweaks here and there (discussed above).

    4. The Scandinavian Front J 35 Draken Flygvapnet Package
      By Team TSF & Friends
       
      The Saab 35 Draken (English: "Kite") was a Swedish fighter aircraft manufactured by Saab between 1955 and 1974. The Draken was built to replace the Saab J 29 Tunnan and, later, the fighter variant (J 32B) of the Saab 32 Lansen. The indigenous J 35 was an effective supersonic Cold War fighter that was also successfully exported to Austria, Denmark and Finland.
       
      Please note:
      We lack a proper "Early" Draken Model, and as such, the A/B versions are incorrect and use the same 3D Model as the 35D/F/J versions.
       
      If you already have the TSF Mega Package, you will only find minor edits, weapons as well as the J 35J to be new to this package. Hence, it is worth grabbing.

    5. The Pacific Incident Mod
      for SF2: North Atlantic
       
      IMPORTANT: This mod is made with some surprise in mind. If you do not wish to be spoiled, do not read the Credits (Under the Folder "SPOILER") until after you have played the mod. Also, you should refrain from observing the support thread as this is the official discussion thread with spoilers
       
      At the first of August, 1980, the USS Nimitz departs from Pearl Harbour with a small escort group. As bad weather looms on the horizon, the escorts are detached and sent back to Pearl.
       
      As the Nimitz sails head first into the storm, they discover a phenomena - a giant vortex - that nobody have ever seen before. It affects the crew, and the ship in a mysterious way.
       
      As the crew wakes up, shaken and disturbed by the recent event, they know that their duty is to defend the United States in the past, present and the future...
       
      Installation: Unzip into your Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 NorthAtlantic folder. Allow any overwrites.
       
      Please note:
      The Terrain is very unoptimized since TK did not leave any instructions for Stary. As such, even the heaviest computers can have some issues with the endless water (for some reason). Setting Terrain Detail and Terrain Texture to Low will fix this and allow good FPS.
       
      Enjoy!

    6. Overview:
       
      The Scandinavian Front (TSF) is a expansion pack type mod for Strike Fighters 2: Europe. It focuses on the efforts of the Scandinavian Air Forces to repel Soviet aggression in the Baltic area. Each part of the mod is self-sustaining and covers a different era, but they can also be merged
      Packages released:
       
      The Catalina Affair (1952)
      Operation Isbjörn (1956)
      The Gulf of Finland Skirmishes (1964)
      Operation Mannerheims Sköld (1966)
      Midvintermörker (2012)
       
      This package contains all released packages updated and ready to play.
      You also need to download Part 2:
      http://combatace.com...package-part-2/
       
      Installation:
       
      First of all, make sure you are using SF2: Europe and that it is patched to the latest version. This is _vital_. Check http://www.thirdwire.com if you are unsure what the latest patch is, but the game should notify you if there is new patches out.
       
      If you are using a mod, or plan to use one, TSF will mess around with settings other mods may be using. As such, creating a seperate mod folder for TSF is a good idea. If you only plan to use TSF, then this step can be bypassed.
       
      Go to your installation folder (Usually C:\Program Files\Thirdwire\Strike Fighters 2). Make a copy of Strike Fighters 2.exe / Strike Fighters 2 Europe.exe depending on what you prefer and got installed. Name the Copy Strike Fighters 2 TSF.exe . Start your new .exe once, then close the game.
       
      Now go to your Mod Folders. For Windows 7/Vista, this is located in C:\Users\Name\Saved Games\Thirdwire. For Windows XP Users, it is usually in My Documents.
      Unzip the contents of the 7zip files into the mod folder of your choice. Allow any overwrites.

    8. Operation Formosa Freedom
      By JonathanRL
       
      Year: 1959
      Flyable Services: US Air Force, US Navy, Republic of China Air Force
      Carrier Operations: Yes
      Naval Combat: Yes
      Ground War Scale: Medium
      Cheese / Ham Sandwich Included: No
       
      Hey, Paulopanz. This one is for you. Consider it a Thank-You for all you done for TSF !
       
      Summary:
      September, 1959
       
      The Peoples Republic of China increases their rethoric against their wayward province Taiwan, on the Island of Formosa. For the purpose of "peace and order"
      in the region, they demand that Formosa shall surrender its independence. Meanwhile, both US and Taiwan intelligence services declare the probability of actual invasion to be low.
       
      Intimidated by the massive bomber armada of the PRC, the Goverment of Taiwan requests US Aid who comes swiftly in the shape of several Interceptor Squadrons.
      Two Carrier Groups in the Pacific are also ordered to converge on Formosa; bolstering the strike capacity of the Island.
       
      The worst fear of the Taiwanese people is confirmed as Amphibious Regiments are spotted outside the coast of the outer islands. This will be one of the fierest ground, air and naval war in history.
       
      Will Formosa fall before US Marines arrive to relive the defenders?
       
      Installation:
      Required:
      Strike Fighters 2 Europe
      Strike Fighters 2 Vietnam
       
      Recommended:
      A-4A DLC
      Expansion Pack 1
       
      First of all, make sure you are using the required packages merged and that it is patched to the latest version. This is _vital_.
      Check http://www.thirdwire.com if you are unsure what the latest patch is, but the game should notify you if there is new patches out.
       
      If you are using a mod, or plan to use one, This mod will mess around with settings other mods may be using. As such, creating a seperate mod folder for Formosa is
      a good idea. If you only plan to use Formosa on your main installation, then this step can be bypassed.
       
      Go to your installation folder (Usually C:\Program Files\Thirdwire\Strike Fighters 2). Make a copy of Strike Fighters 2.exe / Strike Fighters 2 Europe.exe
      depending on what you prefer and got installed. Name the Copy Strike Fighters 2 Formosa.exe . Start your new .exe once, then close the game.
       
      Now go to your Mod Folders. For Windows 7/Vista, this is located in C:\Users\Name\Saved Games\Thirdwire. For Windows XP Users, it is usually in My Documents.
      Unzip the contents of the 7zip file "Formosa" into the mod folder of your choice. Allow any overwrites.
       
      If you own Expansion Pack 1, unzip the file "Optimal" into the same Mod Folder to install correct skins for the J-2.
       
      Enjoy!
       
      (Yes, I take requests. Just make them reasonable...)
