    2. Royal New Zealand Airforce DH Venom Skin UPDATED 31/01/11

      Royal New Zealand Airforce DH Venom Skin
       
      For use with the SF2 DH Venom by Paulopanz found here http://combatace.com...11004-dh-venom/
       
      Instillation: Place files in apropriate location and allow to override (adds correct RNZAF years to Userlist.ini)
       
      History: Venoms were lent to the Royal New Zealand Air Force by the RAF to supplement the RNZAF’s Vampires and were used in the Malayan Emergency where they operated by No. 14 Squadron.
       
      UPDATED 31/01/11 RAF letters added to wing tip tanks after Pasko helped me out with the mesh names. However there is a small bit of bleed through on the bottom of the tanks from the decal. Because of this there are two folders in the download: One with the wing tip decals which is historically accurate. And one without the decals if you can’t live with the bleed through lol. You choose.

      Serial numbers (76) are historic but not divided by each squadron, because the planes very otfen change unit, so I put them togheter, deleting those belonged to RN only.
       
       
      I'll wait for Volker's Buc better flyng these. I hope You too.

    10. MiG-15bis Fagot-B, Fuerza Aérea Revolucionara (Cuba)

      MiG-15bis Fagot-B, Fuerza Aérea Revolucionara
       
      = For SF2, Full-4 Merged, PLUS Expansion Pak 1 =
       
      As stated above, you MUST have -at minimum!!- SF2 (full-4 merged) plus and/or SF2I with Expansion Pak 1, as this added the 15bis to our aircraft stable. As I have a full-4 merged, plus both expansions, I can't say for sure it's available any other way.
       
      The skin, is a base natural metal, with a partly repainted (from a partial template) tail bmp to add the FAR rudder flash. The stock in-game Bort number decals are used, as all the photographic evidence seems to point that way. (in fact, other than the repainted tail bmp, everything is stock!)
       
      The latest (as of 1/11 patch) _data ini is included, as I've activated the canopy, added a different pilot (my craptastic PilotER), and a seat ("liberated" from Pakso's old version -- fits quite nicely, too!) for him to park it on. The 'main' ini is also included, as I've included Ordway's Mig Pit, making the aircraft player-flyable (as if you all haven't done that alreadly!). The engine sound has been set to the old TMF "MiGEngine.wav" (not supplied), but there are several good/better ones out there for you to find.
       
      The canopy is activated via a manual animation key (use shift/0 to open and close it).
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, highyl detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them ....

    15. F8U-1 Crusader Skin Pack 6- 1958 Lebanon Crisis

      The sixth and GRAND FINALE skin pack for your F8U-1 Crusader.
       
      In February 1958, VF-32 went aboard the newly commissioned USS Saratoga for the carrier's first Mediterranean cruise as part of Carrier Air Wing 3. During that cruise, the Swordsmen took part in the Lebanon Crisis by providing air cover for the landing of 1,800 US Marines at Beruit in July 1958.
       
      Included here are the VF-32 'Swordsmen' as they appeared in 1958 during that crisis. The CAG bird (Commander of Air Group) is provided as its own DISTINCT skin.
       
      An installation read-me file is included.
       
      BONUS!!......a new Loadoutscreen music file!! Can you guess what 1960's era movie and what scene it's from?

    16. MiG-21F Fishbed-C, Fuerza Aérea Revolucionara (Cuba)


      MiG-21F Fishbed-C, Fuerza Aérea Revolucionara (Cuba)


       
       

      = For SF2, Any and All, Merged or Not, With Access to MiG-21F =


       
      As stated above, you MUST have an install that has the MiG-21F in it. As this is pretty much ALL installs, it should work in all types, merged or not. It also assumes you've made the aircraft flyable. If not, consult the CombatAce Knowledge Base for instructions.
       
      The skin is a base natural metal with a partly repainted (from a partial template) tail bmp to add the FAR rudder flash. The stock in-game Bort number decals are used, as all the photographic evidence seems to point that way. (in fact, other than the repainted tail bmp, everything is stock!)
       
      The latest (as of 1/11 patch) _data ini is included, as I've activated the canopy, and included a modified Loadout ini, that adds the centerline drop tank to the base Air-to-Air loadout, and reset the RECON loadout. The engine sound has been set to the old TMF "MiGEngine.wav" (not supplied), but there are several good/better ones out there for you to find.
      A replacement main ini (MiG-21F.ini), and a NEW avionics ini that activates the gun-ranging radar are included. When installing allow for the overwrite. Any other skins will be automatically added (so, not to worry!)
       
      The canopy is activated via a manual animation key (use shift/0 to open and close it). As all the decals used are stock, there are no additional decals to be added.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, highyl detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them ....

    19. MiG-15bis Fagot-B, NKPAF "The Hunters"

      MiG-15bis Fagot-B, NKPAF "The Hunters"
       
      = For SF2, Full-4 Merged, PLUS Expansion Pak 1 =
       
      As stated above, you MUST have -at minimum!!- SF2 (full-4 merged) plus/and/or SF2I with Expansion Pak 1. If you do not have these minimum requirements, DO NOT DOWNLOAD this package, as you'll be unable to use it.
       
      The skin is a base natural metal, with a partly repainted (from a partial template) "nose" bmp to add the NKPAF Red Nose. Those familiar with actual historical marking will note that is IS slightly smaller, and without the central cutout for the Bort numbers, than those made (in)famous during the Korean War. Those familiar with the movie "The Hunters" will note that the 'MiGs' were really F-84s, but that's neither here nor there <grin>.....
      So, basically what this is, is a re-purposing of of the decal set as used on Pasko's MiG-15 to recreate the movie Enemy Aircraft ™, now using TK's model from Expansion Pak 1.
      However ... number randomization has NOT been activated for this skin, so with luck "7-11" should be the first aircraft shown. After all, you want to fly as Casey Jones, right? Not as some lower-echelon flunky??
       
      The latest (as of 7/11 patch + all the DLCs -don't know if they changed/added anything) Data ini is included, as I've activated the canopy, added a different pilot (my craptastic PilotER), and a seat ("liberated" from Pakso's old version -- fits quite nicely, too!) for him to park it on.
      If you have the Cuban MiG-15 skin/ini pak, the data ini herein will replace that one. Allow the Overwrite. I've made some AI changes, to try and improve the insane pitch-up they perform on take-offs.
       
      The canopy is (still!) activated via a manual animation key (use shift/0 to open and close it).
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, highyl detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them ....
       
      Have Fun!!

      8/11/2013 Note: It's suggested you ONLY add the skin and decals to the KAW MiG-15bis. THAT one has the good flight model by Fubar512. So, do NOT use the data ini included herein!

    20. Super Mystere Sa'ar, Fuerza Aérea Hondureña (Honduran Air Force)

      Super Mystere Sa'ar, Fuerza Aérea Hondureña (Honduran Air Force)
      -- For SF2, Full-4 Merged (Prefered) and/or any combination -WITH- SF2:I --
       
      This mod =REQUIRES= a Full-4 Merged install, or at the very least, SF2:I for the various and sundry bits used herein (to, wit, the Mystere IVA cockpit from SF2:I). If you do NOT have the minimum required game installs, DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS MOD, as you won't be able to use it.
       
      This is a mod of the SF2:I Super Mystere Sa'ar into those as used by the Honduran Air Force. This depicts the aircraft as originally delivered to the FAH in 1976, still wearing the 3-tone IDF desert camo.
       
      As the Sa'ar is not player flyable "out of the box", this pak will make it so, using the Mystere IVA cockpit (also from SF2I -hence, it's requirement!!). This package can be used in one of 2 ways:
       
      1) As an add-on skin for the Sa'ar (with the included, adjusted userlist ini) or
       
      2) As a stand-alone, nationalized aircraft.
       
      All the various inis, skin and decals are provided for either choice. Instructions are in the "To Install" section. 100% historicaly correct FAH serial number decals are included.
      The canopy has been activated; use Shift/0 to open and close.
       
      As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs, to make it a LOT easier to install (read: drag and drop).
       
      Have fun with it!

    21. RAAF Meteor F.8, 77 Squadron

      Meteor F8, RAAF, 77 Squadron Skin/Decal Pak
      - For SF2, Full-4 Merged Installs =WITH= Expansion Pak 1 (REQUIRED!) -
       
      As stated above, you MUST have -at the very least, SF2:I and Expansion Pak 1 to gain access to the Meteor F8. If you do NOT have these minimum requirements, Do Not Download this Mod, as you'll be unable to use it.
       
      This pak contains a skin a decal set replicating Meteor F8s from RAAF 77 Squadron, 1951-ish time frame, during the Korean War. The serial numbers are 100% historicaly accurate for
      those airframes assigned 77 Sqdn during Korea. Number randomization has been activated, so make sure you're at LEAST at the June, 2011 patch level. Three historical Korean-Era nose arts are included. They are 'name listed' next to their serial numbers, selectable from the drop-down on the Loadout Screen.
       
      Several inis are also included, as I've made some changes to loadouts (making sure the belly tank is ALWAYS loaded), data ini and year-adjusted Userlist ini. The data ini also as the canopy activated; as usual, use Shift/0 to open and close it.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them ....Also, it's advisable to read the "Notes" section for important comments, other instructions and general rambling.
       
      Good Hunting!

    23. RDAF Camo, F-84G Thunderjet

      RDAF Camo SkinPak for F-84G Thunderjet
       
      =For SF2, Any and All (Full-4 Merged Reccomended/Preferred,etc)
       
      A simple reskin/redecaling for the recently released F-84G Upgrade Pak.
       
      This skin represent Euro-style camoflaged Thunderjets of the Royal Danish Air Force. They were painted such (as what little data seems available) during the later years of their service. The skin itself is a repainted/relined version of the 1stGen JRV (Yugoslavian AF) skin by Homer. I just retouched some bits to remove other bits! Full credit goes to him for the skin (wherever he may be).
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!!
       
      Happy Landings!

      This is 'medium rez' skin for the stock F-104G; I call these "medium rez", as it's only 1024 x 1024. There is no partucular nation attached to this skin; it's "Generic" (however, certain contries may have had different placards - these, again, are generic in nature).
       
      This is a "clean" skin, with no painted on markings, using all stock in-game markings (decals) - the decals ini will use whichever you choose (excepting USAF). This will allow skinners/decalers more latitude in creating country-specific squadron markings and such. The skin has a default start date of 1970; you can adjust as needed (again, a generic date of 1973 might be more accurate).
       
      Included also are updated data and loadout inis, with "Nation & Year Specific" mission profile loadouts (in particular Marineflieger anti-ship). Updated version of the AS-30 and Kormoran 1 missile are included, for MFG usage.
      *Note: the only thing NOT added is the Orpheus recon pod for KLU usage*
       
      As expected, the canopy operates with the Shift/0 key.
      Since the skin mapping hasn't changed since SFP1, this skin should (may) also be usable in 1stGen game installs that have the F-104G accessable. This, however, has NOT been tested.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!!
       
      Happy Landings!
