No guarantees. It's hard enough having to deal with the cat.

P-26 Peashooter, Chinese Air Force, mod for SF/WoV/WoE WW2 PTO installs



== For Pre-Patch (9/08-10/08) Installs -ONLY!!! ==


 
This is a slight rebuild, in a major sense, of Bunyap's P-26 Peashooter, as used by the Chinese Air Force in the late 1930s. It is a complete aircraft mod, with all the bits needed to just unzip, install and fly away.
 
It is a 'nation-specific' aircraft, and will not conflict with any other versions of P-26 you may have in your game installs.
 
There are 2 version of the data ini included with this; one (called ori-P-26A_DATA.ini) is the original as issued (with my lighting modifications as seen in a few other Peashooter mods). The other, set to use right now, has had it's FM parameters 'adjusted' to something that seems a LOT closer to how the aircraft should be (More in the "Notes" section below). Lighting is the same for both.
 
Brand new, "only-available-in-this-mod" nation specific Hangar and Loading screens are included.
 
A new 'natural metal' skin, based on Bunyap's templates, and new ID number decals for 18 aircraft are also included. The cockpit, created by CA_Stary is included. The only mod to his pit is a I added my 'ring-and-bead' gunsight (nestled quite comfortably inside the telescope tube).
 
Full, detailed instructions are below in the "To Installate" section. Along with the usual notes, comments and general foolishness....
 
--YOU MUST HAVE THE BUNYAP WEAPONS PACK TO GET THE WW2 WEAPONS!! --
- This mod is designed to work ONLY in pre/unpatched installs -those that pre-date the 9/08 & 10/08 units. If you install this mod to a post-patched game install, you do so at your own risk. Prop Flight Models are still a little "iffy" Post-Patch, and it is NOT reccomended you use this as such. -
 
As you'd expect, there's a fully detailed readme enclosed with all the necessary instructions for installing and so forth.

Curtiss Hawk III, Chinese Air Force, mod for SF/WoV/WoE WW2 PTO installs
 
== -For Pre-Patch (9/08-10/08) Installs -ONLY!!!- ==


 
This is a major rebuild of MontyCZ's Curtiss Hawk III (Export Version), as used by the Chinese Air Force in the late 1930s. It is a complete aircraft mod, with all the bits needed to just unzip, install and fly away.
 
It is a 'nation-specific' aircraft, and will not conflict with any other versions of the BF2C/Hawk III you may have in your game installs. In fact, as a 'new' aircraft, it'll replace any other version made from the original BF2C.
 
There is a completly NEW data ini, with updated FM parameters taken from a 'contemporary' aircraft - I disremember which one, but do remember it was biplane. As this mod was started early in 2008, I kinda lost track....
 
A new skin, based off the original but from a newly made template (by me!), and ID number decals for 24 aircraft is included. The cockpit, CA_Stary's Peashooter pit, is also included. It's not perfect, but it's mighty damn close, and works really well for this aircraft. The only mod to this pit is a I added my 'ring-and-bead' gunsight (nestled quite comfortably inside the telescope tube).
 
Full, detailed instructions are below in the "To Installate" section. Along with the usual notes, comments and general foolishness....

Yak-25 Flashlight v1.1
 
I uploaded this because I found the file whilst going through my old back-ups of Pasko's Yaks, and searching on CA, column5.us and Pasko's Mostly MiGs (now sadly mostly dead links) sites, this v1.1 did not seem to be currently available anywhere else. All credit to Pasko, C5 and Volksjaeger.

Cockpit Upgrade for Pako's Yaks (ie: Yak Pak Part 1) For SF/WoV/WoE/WoI
 
This semi-inclusive package contains cockpit upgrades and many ini tweeks for the following Yaklovev aircraft made by Pasko:
 
Yak-25 "Flashlight"
Yak-25B "Brewer"
Yak-25RV "Mandrake"
 
It is desinged for use in a post 9/08 or 10/08 game install. These mods should work just as well in a non-patched version, but this has NOT been tested.
 
Included in the package are complete cockpit folders for all 3 (since I'm kinda paranoid about someone =NOT= being able to figure out the same cockpit folder goes in all of them....this removes that possibility), that are basically repaints of the stock 3rdWire F-4B Phantom, but with lots of changes and stuff. The entire cockpit folder is included, as the F-4B exists in all versions of the game, I feel this a pretty safe move. A whole slew of updated/modificated/fiddled with inis are included, Using the "Stargetic Moves Method" pioneered by Lexx_Luthor, and with some repainting and "metricizing" of the readouts, they make a "passable" Soviet-style cockpit. Not perfect, mind you, but "Passable".
The cockpit labeling is still in English, although the measurements themselves are using metric; ie: KMPH, MPS, Meters and Liters. I made the assumption that a "Russian" pilot would see the "Russian" labels in Cyrillic; so just pretend you're reading "Russian". Your brain is automatically translating :)
 
Data and Loadout ini tweeks return the "WP,SOVIET" attachment types, to allow for usege in any Weapons Pak, or none -- HOWEVER -- the weapons will still need to be added to your stock WeaponsData.ini (for those NOT using the BunyPak ), or to the TMF Pak. The weapons themselves ARE included, in the new 'seperate folder' format pioneered by The Mirage Factory. This will create a cleaner, more readily accessable /Weapons folder without all them hundreds of loose files floating around.
Where information has been available, or based on 'best guesses' in looking at the aircraft, landing lights have been added, and the running lights upgraded. The Flight Models have not been touched, so be advised in the post patch world of possible handeling issues. Oddly, the 'auto-speed' canopy seems to be working just the same as pre-patch; so it's been left alone.
 
The main ini has been upgraded to the post 10/08 standard in regards to the "Shadow" section. Unfortunately, there are no damage tgas yet available. Perhaps I'll do them up someday...
 
Also included are the MiG RWR sounds, and the "JetEngine2" wavs.
 
Obviously, you'll need these 3 birds to install this package too. They're available at Column5's site, and (hopefully!) at Pasko's. In regards to the Flashlight, this is designed to totaly replace a much older cockpit mod I'd done 3 or 4 years ago....
 
As you've all come to expect, there's a detailed, step-by-step readme enclosed that illuminates, elucidates, clarifies, and generally points the way for the necessary steps to install this Yak Pak Pt.1. And, of course the usual Notes and Other Nonsense section, which IS reccomeneded reading for it explinations and other diatribes
 
Happy Hunting!

Generic Hangar Screens for MiG-17 "Fresco" and MiG-19 "Farmer" 11/2/08
-For SF/WoV/WoE/WoI
 
Here, as I promised a couple weeks ago, are just 2 rather "plane-jane" WoE-style hangar screens for the Fresco and Farmer.
Designed for SF,WoV,WoE (although in WoV and WoI they should actually have their SEA or Mid-East markings and camo, but no matter...)
 
These should fill a small gap for these 2 stock aircraft. More, model specific types can be found on my site (where they've been for up to 5 years....) But these are nice and generic, with Soviet markings
 
Easy to follow instrucitons in the enclosed readme. As usual.
 
Enjoy!

Again another creation out of the ordinary!
The Sa'ar (a modified Super Mystère) was delivered
from Israel to Honduras in the late seventies. The
bird flew in original "café au lait" for a while before
a low visibility paint was applied. This one is the original
version still in IDF/AF camo. The serials are correct for the type.
Enjoy!
 
IT IS NOT FOR THE SA'AR FROM WOI, BUT ERIKGEN'S!

F-24 Shadowcat (AFX) Beta 1.0 for Wings over Israel
 
Model and skin by Julhelm
FM by Starfighter2
Avionics by Jat
Uses F23 cockpit by Dels
 
Requires F-14 and F-22 sounds and the F-22 afterburner fx.
 
As usual, these files may not be used in payware or otherwise tampered with and reposted without my consent which you may request at NilsD at bredband dot net.
 
This is a beta release: This means it is to be considered a work in progress, so efforts to improve/bugfix are welcome.
 
This message will self destruct in five seconds.

Well, here's a Polish Viggen skin. It's meant to be in my Third Faction Campaign.
 
Same drill as always: if you're going to upload it to other homepages, mention it's made by me, and if you add it to some campaign, tell me.

This is a replacement for the Stock base as this one didn't do any justice to the real one.
 
This release is a beta release, update is planned once I get some feedback on any troubles it might give. I depend a bit on you since my time is too limited to do any serious testing.
 
It was created using Flight Simulator Scenery creator, Polaks converter for SCN to Target.ini conversion and a lot of cursing.
 
Detailed instructions on how to install and credits are included in the Readme.txt!
 
Have fun!

To the best of my knowledge this mod is not compatible with YAP. No gurantees should you wreck YAP by installing it.

Sea2.tga (alternate sea tile graphic)
Desert.tfd (hex modified desert tilemap)

Another insane Saab skin from me
 
Yet again it's a fictive skin. It's a Saab J35 painted to resemble Jolly Roger's aircraft.
 
A possible story that could lead up to an aircraft like this would be if the cold war wouldn't end, Sweden didn't make the cuts made in the late 80's, and then went on into the 90's, meaning that Sweden could afford to make an Agressor program. And to maintain neutrality, the aircraft would be both painted in Russian and American schemes.
 
Or another could quite simply be that the US during the cold war would have a policy of getting the most efficient aircraft, rather than whatever the US industries come up with. Which would result in purchasing a few Drakens for evaluation. Why it would end up on an aircraft carrier based unit needn't be explained.
 
I want to mention that this skin is based on whiteknight06604's bare metal Draken skin. Also, this is a first version. I'll see if I'll improve it later, anyone willing is free to improve it himself, but mention me and whiteknight.

B-66B Destroyer Skin and Ini Update Pak for WoV, WoE, WoI Post 9/08 Patch
 
This is basically a re-decaling of Bunyap's B-66B "Destroyer" light jet bomber. It reuses the original skin bmps; no changes to them, and add new decals for 25 aircraft. The new decals are the "buzz" and serial numbers. The numbers ARE accurate, as they were used on B-66s, but I can only claim historical accuracy for a few.
 
This package is designed to REPLACE the existing 84th Bomb Squadron skin as supplied with the aircraft when first released.
 
Also included are 'modified' or updated main ini, as well as data, loadout, avionics and cockpit inis. They, too, are designed to replace the originals as originally issued
 
The cockpit is based off the F-4E, and is tweekified using Lexx_Luthors Stargetic Movement Method. The cockpit folder IS included, as the Phantom exists in all versions of the game, I feel this is in no way violating any EULA. The data ini has been updated with ECM/decoy enhancements (albeit not 100% correct, but close), and includes the fix for the bomb bay as seen on the CombatAce knowledge base. Gun aim angles have been adjusted to match the gunsight, and enhanced AI sections have been added in the hopes of improving your survivabillity (and the AI hitting the target). A landing light has also been added. Pilot figures are NOT included, but they are available at my site (link in my sig below).
=NOTE to SF/SFG users: you will most likely experience visual anamolies in the cockpit, as I've taken advantage to the "OpenCockpit=TRUE" coding included in the 9/08 patch, which was taken from First Eagles. You'll just have to live with it, unitl the SF/SFG patch arrives (whenever!). The same goes for those that have NOT patched WoV/WoE to the latest standard.
 
The loadout ini supplied is basicaly the same as issued; you should have no problems with it using either the Bunyap Weapons Pack, The Mirage Factory Weapons Pak, or no weapons pak. Be advised, however, you'll still need to add the drop tanks to the TMF pak or to a 'clean' weaponsdata ini (if using not a WepPak). I've suppled the tank, complete, in the new "folder style" format as used by TMF. Instructions for adding it, if you don't have it already, are supplied in the "Tank_B-66" folder. You should have no problems with it.
 
And just for fun, my old Hangar screen is suppled as well. The main ini is already set to use it. WoI users may want to use the original as supplied, as mine has the 'blackboard'', and dosen't fit the WoI style of captioning.
 
== You MUST have Bunyap's B-66B already installed to use this pak ==
 
As you can expect, there is a highly detailed, step-by-step readme enclosed. It's suggested you give it a REAL good read through. And the expected "General Notes and Nonesense" section.
 
Good Hunting!
