WW2 Era Aircraft Skins

SF2 WW2 ETO 53rd FS, P-47D Bubbletop Pak
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
This skin should have been in with the recently released ETO Bubbletop Jug pak (for Wolf's Jug), but I'd forgotten that I'd moved it to a storage folder. As I had to reskin it and make some new decals to replace Major Lee's originals (sorry Ken!!), here it is! It sorta 'fell through the cracks', and I apologize!
 
This pack contain the skin/decal set for the
 
53rd FS, 36th FG, 9th AF (NM only)
 
in early 1944 (pre-Invasion Striped). All new decals replace the originals by Major Lee, and Decal randomization set to TRUE. The NEW skin is in Jpg format. Serial numbers are 'generic' in nature, but are correct for the model/sub-variant depicted.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Major Lee's original readme is enclosed for historical purposes
 
Good Hunting!!

SF2 WW2 B-24D 319th BS, 90th BG, SoWesPac Skin/Decals Pak
 
-- Something for the PTO players --
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
A new skin for the B-24D Liberator by pasko. This skin represents aircraft of the 319BS of the 90th BG "Jolly Rogers" in their early (late 42-mid 43-ish) livery as seen in New Guinea and the Southwest Pacific operations areas.
 
It is designed for use on the recenly release SF2ish B-24D mod, available at the following url:
 
http://combatace.com...or-eto-mto-pak/
 
The skin is brand new, from my Home Grown Template ™, and is in jpg format. New serial number decals were created; they should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they don't accurately represent the unit, but DO represent the correct model variant depicted. Decal randomization is set to TRUE. There are NO nose arts.
 
As this skin IS Theatre specific to the Pacific regions, you'll have to do some editing after installing to the B-24D in your PTO-centric mods folder, and remove or rename the ETO/MTO skins.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. .

SF2 WW2 ETO BoB Hurricane 1A, 303 Squadron Skin
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
 
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: it's quite possible it can be used in 1stGens, but this has not been tested. Those that
do, well, let me know if worked!! <grin>**
 
This pak contains the decals necessary to (re)create the Hurricane Mk.1A as used by No. 303
Squadron (Polish) during the Battle of Britain.
 
This ini/decal pak (as there's no skin included) is for Raven's Mk.1, available at the
following url:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/13646-sf2-ww2-hawker-hurricane-ia-etobob-by-raven/
 
As stated in the original aircraft release, it uses Brain32's "Multiple Use Skin Trik", and
references the skin maps and other decals included in the above pak. Therefore, NO skin maps
are included in THIS pak. So, you MUST have the original aircraft listed above to add this pack
to.
All that's really included in this pak are the inis, Squadron Code letter and squadron badge
decals. Decal randomization is set to TRUE.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read
them!!!

SF2 WW2 ETO Spitfire 1A, 603 Squadron Skin Pak

= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
A new skin for the TMF/ModMafia Spitfire Mk.1A, representing 603 "City of Edinburgh" Squadron around the time of the Battle of Britain.
 
Like the original release of the TMF/MM Spit 1, it uses a pool of plane-in-group letters and serial numbers, so you MUST have to original release of the TMF/MM Spitfire Mk.1a to apply this pack to. The only thing different is the squadron code decal, XT.
 
If you don't have this Spitfire, it's available at the following url:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/13510-sf2-ww2-spitfire-mk1a-by-mod-mafiatmf/
 
The skin is in jpg format, Decal Randomization is TRUE.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please READ them

SF2 WW2 B-24J PTO Skins/Decals Pak
 
-- Something for the PTO players --
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
A new set of Theatre-specific skins for the B-24J Liberator by pasko.
It is designed for use on the recenly release SF2-ish B-24J mod, available at the following
url:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/13846-sf2-ww2-b-24j-liberator-eto-pak/
 
Obviously, you'll NOT be using the ETO skins in the Pacific.
 
Skins included in this pak are:
320 BS, 90th BG (OD/Grey), 5th AF - Jolly Rogers
371 BS, 307 BG (Natural Metal) 13th AF - The Long Rangers
 
The skins are brand new, from my Home Grown Template ™, and is in jpg format.Decal
randomization is set to TRUE. There are NO nose arts.
Serial numbers on 320th are 'generic' in nature, but represent J models. Serials marked with a
* (star) on the 371st ARE actual aircraft assigned to that squadron. Unfortunately, the only
listing I found was for aircraft 'lost on operations'. Remember that, and Honor Their Memory.
 
As these skins =ARE= Theatre specific to the Pacific regions, you'll have to do some editing
after installing to the B-24J in your PTO-centric mods folder, and remove or rename the ETO/MTO
skins.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please

-- Something for the WW2 ETO/MTO players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*There is a distinct possibility that this mod will work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs. After all, it's just a skin and decals!! However, the decal radomization will not be functional in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs*
 
A new Desert camo skin for Raven's Hurricane IIC (Trop), recreates 335 Squadron, Royal Hellinc Air Force, as flown with the RAF in Egypt and the Western Desert.
 
This skin is still in bmp format, so it's usable in SF/Wo*. Decal randomization is TRUE. All the markings are decals, most of which (serials, plane-in-group letters) are reused from other skins sets

SF2 WW2 ETO Spitfire 9e, 332 Squadron Skin Pak 7/30/2013
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
 
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
**SF2:I/E (whichever!) Expansion Pak 2 REQUIRED to have the Spitfire 9e**
 
A reskinning of the stock 3W Spitfire 9e to No. 332 "Netherlands" Squadron during WW2 in Western Europe.
 
Skins remain in their 'lorez' 512 size, and are still in bmp format. Decal randomization is set to TRUE. All marking on the aircraft, excepting the Sky fuselage band are decals. This will make it exceptionally easy for skinners to create other RAF squadrons of this time period.
 
Included are modified data and loadout inis, at the current (7/2013) patch level. See 'changes' in the Notes section for full listing. And, for you viewing pleasure, a brand NEW SF2-style Hangar screen. The assumption (oh! that word!!) is being made that you've already made the aircraft player flyable, so no cockpit bits are included. Neither is my "One Click Restore Main Ini" (patent pending).
 
The canopy has been activated via the Standard Animation Keystroke ™, Shift/0
No weapons or pilot figures are included; you should have them already.
However, the AvHistory Merlin engine sound, is.

SF2 WW2 MTO Kittyhawk IA, 112 Squadron
 
-- Something for the WW2 MTO players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*There is a distinct probabality that this mod =WILL= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs.
After all, it's just a skin and decals!! However, the decal radomization will not be
functional in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs*
 
A fairly simple redecaling for Raven's Kittyhawk Mk.IA as flown with 112 Squadron in Egypt
and the Western Desert. In fact, other than the skins getting a light coating of dirt and
smoke, it's still Raven's original skin. This will add the Squadron Code, plane-in-group
letters and serial number decals to his original skin. It just overwrites the decals and
texture set ini (although the skin map will also overwrite, too. don't worry about that!)
 
This skin is still in bmp format, so it's usable in SF/Wo*. Decal randomization is TRUE.
All the markings are decals, which (serials, plane-in-group letters) are reused from
another Kittyhawk skins set.
Also included, is a NEW loading screen from my AvArt collection
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So,
please =READ= them.
 
With Thanks To Raven for the bird!

= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: this pak MAY be usable in 1stGen SF/Wo* game installs. However, some features
(decal randomization, dds damage textures) will =NOT= be functional. Use in 1stGens has
not, and cannot be, tested by me.*
 
Some reskins for Raven's recently Released P-40E Warhawk. These skins represent USAAF
squadrons in the South West Pacific (SWP) -northern Australia, New Guinea- region from
approximately April 1942 onwards. And a "interesting" skin, as I hate wasting decals
(grin).

8th FS, 49th FG -Black Sheep (Green/Tan/Grey camo)

and...
 
The Flying Legion (OD/Grey) - somewhat of a "What If..." skin from the motion picture "Sky
Captain and the World of Tommorrow. You may keep it, or delete as you desire. I won't be
insulted or hurt; I promise!!
 
Skins remain in their bmp format.
New DDS damage textures (usable on all Raven's Warhawk/Kittyhawk in SF2 only) are
included!
New aircraft plane-in-group number decals, in correct sequencing for the 3 Real Life ™
squadron are included. Decal randomization is TRUE for all skins. There are no nose arts.
The squadron patch is used for the 7th, 8th and 9th FS. Also, via the use of my (patent
pending) fake SqTail decal, the squadron name display is now active on the Loadout Screen.
My modified Loadout ini is also included. As is an SF2 Version of the drop tank (for those
that haven't converted it yet).
The skins have been run through the template (thank you Raven for that!), and have had a
layer of dirt, stains and 'clouds' added for weathering.
 
A rebuilt version of my "Box Art" style Hangar screen, USAAF PTO specific (in SF2 jpg
format) is included.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE
read them BEFORE installing this pack!!!!! PLEASE read the "Notes" section for other stuff
that might be interesting.

**SF2:E Expansion Pak 2 =REQUIRED= to have the Spitfire 9c**
 
A reskinning of the stock 3W Spit 9c to 341 Squadron, FFAF (aka: GC III/4 Alsace) during WW2 in Western Europe.
 
Skins remain in their 'lorez' 512 size, and are still in bmp format. Decal randomization is set to TRUE. All marking on the aircraft are decals. This will make it exceptionally easy for skinners to create other RAF squadrons of this time period.
For those with historical tendencies, this is the squadron that Pierre Clostermann served with.

Spitfire F.22, Southern Rhodesian Air Force for SF2
 
This will work only if you have installed DLC No. 29 AI Aircraft Pack 2, including the Spitfire F.22. Without this pack installed, you will not have the necessary model files.
 
The SRAF received 22 Mark 22 Spitfires from Britain in 1951, and these were used to form two fighter squadrons until 1954 when they began to be replaced with Vampires. The final Spitfire was withdrawn in 1956; most aircraft were sold on to Syria, although SR64 and SR65 remained in Rhodesia. SR64 was subsequently rebuilt and restored to airworthiness but crashed in 1982, killing its pilot.
 
This uses an essentially unmodified data.ini and loadout.ini as supplied in the initial DLC pack.Nationality entries have been changed to read 'Rhodesia' but are otherwise unchanged.
 
Serials include 20 of the known serials for the two batches of Spitfires.
 
There is some disagreement about the actual colour of these aircraft; some say High-Speed Silver, others pale grey-blue. I believe both are probably correct, as the aircraft will have been delivered in RAF Silver and may subsequently have been painted pale blue.
 
 
Credits:
 
The cockpit is by Kesselbrut and used with gratitude in accordance with the CA fair use agreement.
 
I have no idea where the pilot came from, but thank you anyway!
