    2. F-84E/G Thunderjet Redrawn Lines, Rivets, etc..

      By Geary

      Redrawn Lines, Rivets, etc.. for the beautiful F-84E/G Thunderjet by RussoUK2004.
      It can be used for SF1 or SF2.
      This template is a Photoshop .psd file at 2048 pixels. It has redrawn lines, rivets and various bits. It can be reduced for those with low spec computers.
      The only skin with this template is USAF Natural Metal / Aluminum.
      Add your own paint, dirt, details and weathering.
      If you want to make the lines and rivets darker or lighter, this template allows you to do that yourself by adjusting the opacity of the lines, rivets or any layer of this file. To use it you must have a paint program that reads/modifies .psd files.
      Then you can adjust the specular, glossiness and/or reflection entries in the skin's texture.ini file to get the skin to your liking.
      I use the poor mans' method of bump mapping. I don't have the needed software or skills to create real bump maps. I use two template layers: one black the other white. The white layer is below the black layer and offset one pixel up or down and one pixel left or right. Then adjust the opacity of each layer to create a 'shadow' effect. When done right it gives the illusion it's 3D.
       
      Credit and Thanks to RussoUK2004 for this nifty little jet and Wrench for the colorful skins he's made for it.
       
      INSTALLATION:  Unzip to a folder/place of your choice.  Copy, Move, Drag-n-Drop or do whatever you wish to get the skin folder into your XXX folders.  Choose the desired skin in the loadout section.  Fly.

      I'm releasing this under the Combat Ace Fair Use Agreement. Use it anyway you wish for personal use.  For any other use, please contact me first. 

      If you find any problems with it, please PM me.  If you improve it, please PM me a copy. 

      Thanks to all who are helping me learn to skin by direct involvement and/or by inspiration.

    3. SF2 P-47N Thunderbolt 36th FBS, KAW "What If" Skin Pack

      By Wrench

      SF2 P-47N Thunderbolt 36th FBS, KAW "What If" Skins Pack       6/22/2019
      -For SF2, (Full 5 Merged Reccomended)-
      This is a 'What If' skin for the P-47N Thunderbolt by RussoUK. It represents the
      36th FBS, 51st FG if said unit had been equipped with Jugs during the Korean War.
      It is to be applies to V.2 of Russ's Jug. If you don't have it, You can find
      Version 2.0 of Russ' P-47N at the following URL:
      https://combatace.com/files/file/13202-p-47n-157z/
      The aircraft is painted in "silver lacquer" and carries the same style of tail
      markings as seen on their Real Life (tm) F-80C Shooting Stars used in Korea. All
      new serial and buzz number decals were created. The serials, while generic in
      nature, are correct for the late model P-47Ns. Decal randomization is TRUE.  Let it
      be known that the SF2 Date Switch is =NOT= used on this skin*. A new more "chewed
      up looking" damage tga is also included. When in-game, on the Loadout Screen's Skin
      Selection Dropdown window, you'll see:
      36th FBS (What-If, KAW 1950)
      Remember, you'll have to change the skin for all members in your flight.
      Once upon a time, there was a 1stGen version of this aircraft/skin that I did (mid
      2000s???) but it dosen't seem to exist in the CA downloads anymore. So, this is a
      full replacement. If any of you End Users (tm) still have it, you are instructed to
      delete both the original skin and decals.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy
      access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. Might want to give
      the "Notes & Other Nonsense" section a once over, as well! :)
      *=see 'Notes' for information on how to create a post-war F-47N

      Happy Landings!

    5. F-84F_TMF_4096pixel_Redrawn Lines & Rivets

      By Geary

      Redrawn Lines, Rivets, etc.. for the Mirage Factory's beautiful little F-84F Thunderstreak.
      It can be used for SF1 or SF2.
      This template is a .psd file at 4096 pixels. It can be reduced for those with low spec computers.
      It was made using Photoshop. It has redrawn lines, rivets and various bits.
      I had completed about half of this template when I discovered PappyChkSix's template and beautiful skins. Kicked myself repeatedly and at great length but I was also happy to discover the skins. Some of this template is based on and inspired by his original template and works.
      The only skin with this template is USAF Natural Metal / Aluminum.
      If you want to make the lines and rivets darker or lighter, this template allows you to do that yourself by adjusting the opacity of the lines, rivets or any layer of this file. To use it you must have a paint program that reads/modifies .psd files.
      Then you can adjust the specular, glossiness and/or reflection entries in the skin's texture.ini file to get the skin to your liking.
      I use the poor mans' method of bump mapping. I don't have the needed software or skills to create real bump maps. I use two template layers: one black the other white. The white layer is below the black layer and offset one pixel up or down and one pixel left or right. Then adjust the opacity of each layer to create a 'shadow' effect. When done right it gives the illusion it's 3D.
      Add your own dirt, details and weathering.

    8. T-33A Shooting Star, Skin & Ini Pak: Footbal City AF

      By Wrench


      T-33A Shooting Star, Football City Air Force, Skin & Ini Pak


       

      -- For SF2, Any and All (also usable in SF/Wo* 1stGens as well) --


       
      Another 'just for fun' aircraft mod, for the universe described in the novel series "The Wingman"
       
      This is a skin/ini package for Pasko's T-33A. It adds the new FBCAF skin, and the inis update a few items closer to SF2 Standards. Included is a new main, data ini, and a new Userlist.ini. A quick note on the userlist - it may not be fully accurate, and may not reflect ALL users.
      The canopy has also been switched to a manual animation key: use Shift/0 to open and close it. All weapons are stock (excepting the use of the F-86 drop tanks for RECON), so none are included. However, the 'newish' cockpit IS. Landing lights have also been added.
       
      As this is NOT a Complete Aircraft Mod, you'll need to have Pasko's T-33A first, of course, before installing this mod. You can get it at the following URLs:
       
      CombatAce:
      http://combatace.com/files/file/1627-lockheed-t-33-shooting-star/
       
      Column5:
      http://www.column5.us/aircraft7.shtml
       
      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).
      For SF/Wo* users, there's a note for you as well.
      As usual, the expected "Notes and Other Nonsense for extra fun reading.
       
      Now, go watch The Game!!

    9. F-4B Phantom II, VMFA-58 "Wildcards"

      By Wrench


      F-4B Phantom II, VMFA-58 "Wildcards" Skin/Decal set (A "What If.." skin)


       

      = For SF2, any/all versions with access to the F-4B Phantom, merged or not =


       
      A complete rebuild of my "What If..." Phantom skin from 2006.
       
      This is a reskinning and redecaling of the stock, plane-jane F-4B (no year suffix), using Sundowner's templates (what a masterpiece!!!). New serial numbers and all new BuNum decals have been created. BuNums ARE 100% accurate, in that they are for F-4Bs. Since this is a fantasy skin ... they're purly there for looks. Many new decals, for crew names have been created and added to the canopy rails (these are characters and production staff from the Space: Above and Beyond TV show, with a few 'just for funs' thrown in).
      What is unusual for me, is the fact that most of the generic national/service markings are painted on, as opposed to my prefrence for decals. This was done to "open up" some meshes for other decals, thereby greating imporving the historical "look", and accuracy (!), of the aircraft.
       
      This skin/decal set is perfectly usable for ANY of the other F-4Bs (F-4B_65 and F-4B_67), and possibly even the F-4J. Renaming of the skin bmps will be required for use on the other aircraft, however, but their mapping is identical (this =HAS= been tested!). See below for more details & instructions.
       
      The skins are 2048x2048, so users with older, slower machines may need to resize them down one step to 1024; expect some detail loss, but they're still quite beautiful, even at the the smaller size.
      NOTE: I've supplied 2 different _1.bmps for use. The one being used right now has the ship name "USS SARATOGA"* above the squadron name. If you do not wish to use that, use the 'no-ship-name_F-4B_1.bmp'. Instructions for switching are in the 'To Install' section below.
       
      Included as well are modified data and loadout inis; the data ini has a new landing light added and the canopy activated via a manual animation key. Use Shift/0 to open and close it. The loadout ini removes the non-existant reconpod,from RECON missions, and replaces it with the 600 gallon tank. All other loads remain stock. The landing gear's RollingRadius has also been adjusted, as I've gotten sick and tired of the 'flat tire' look. The numbers I used can also be used on all the other Phantoms. Other improvements are some additional armor over vital internals. No other changes have been made.
       
      * the SARA was the space carrier The Wildcards was assigned to in the TV show; just keeping continuity <grin>
       
      As always, detailed, step-by-step install instruction are in the enclosed Readme. It's required you actually read it ...
       
      Good Hunting and Happy Landings!

    10. F-20B Tigershark, Quickie Skin/Decal Tweek Pak

      By Wrench

      F-20B Tigershark Quickie Skin & Decal UPgrade Pak for SF2
      =For SF2, Any and All (but Full-4 Merged Prefered/Reccomended*)
       
      *Note: at minimum, you =MUST= have SF2:E, as the decals ini makes references/callout pointers to the stock F-15A serials. If you don't meet these minimium criteria, don't D/L this, as you wont be able to use it*
       
      Just a quickie pak with slightly modified skin bmps and decal pointers to use stock in-game decals for Veltro2k's F-20B Tigershark.
      You =MUST= have the F-20B to apply this pak to; it's just a skin, a few decals and a couple of inis for said skin and decals.
       
      It's a rather generic skin, with tail code markings for the 56th FW, at Luke AFB, Arizona. The "LF" code is a new decal, as are the intake warnings. The rescue tags are borrowed from somewhere I can't remember (an F-104???).
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!! The usual "Notes" section for other interestering details and stuff, explinations, and general musings and things.
      To make it easier, I'd reccomend (highly!) you unzip this archive first, and read the install instructions BEFORE installing, as without following them, you'll have a conflict.
       
      *note: this is the correct tail code; the one shown in the "What if..." screenshots thread was not*
       
      Happy Landings!

    12. SF2 C-54 Skymaster, Arctic Skins Pack

      By Wrench

      SF2 C-54 Skymaster, Arctic Skins Pack       6/7/2019
      - For SF2, Full 5 Merged (Reccomended )
      This contains 2 new skins for Veltro2k's C-54 Skymaster. The aircraft itself can be found at the following url, for those that don't have it already:
      https://combatace.com/files/file/14309-sf2-douglas-c-54-skymaster-by-veltro2k/
      These are somewhat generic skins for those USAF units that flew in the high latatudes (Arctic & Antarctic) during the late 1940s through the mid-1950s. Both aircraft carry the nose and tail Military Air Transport Command (MATS) badges, correct for the time. 
      Both aircraft have the standard arctic red tail and wing easy ID markings.
      "Arctic 1" is in all Natural Metal finish. It is badged for MATS Altantic Division
      "Arctic 2" is in NMF with the post-1955 white anti-heat treatment on the upper cabin. It is badged for MATS Pacific Division. No specific units are represented.
      Both skins use a 'pool' of serial numbers and other markings. Serial numbers are generic in nature, but are for the correct model C-54.  Decal randomization is TRUE for both. The SF2 Date switch is =NOT= used on either skin, as this would mess up the standard switching from NMF to NMF/White on the other skins.
      When in game, on the Loadout Screen, in the skin selection window, you'll see:
      Arctic Red (1948-54)
      Arctic Red (1955<)
      This way, you should be able to select the proper skin for the time frame to be flown in.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. 

      Happy Landings!

    13. SF2 F-86A Sabre, 115th FIS, California ANG Skin Pack

      By Wrench

      SF2 F-86A Sabre, 115th FIS, California ANG Skin Pack       6/9/2019
      -For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Reccomended)
      This is a NEW skin for the F-86A Sabre. It is designed to be used on the SF2 KAW Sabres Pack, for the F-86A-5 available therein. The Sabres are to be found at the following URL:
      https://combatace.com/files/file/13604-sf2-korean-war-era-f-86-sabre-pak/
      Also included is a new data ini, with updated hit and collision boxes, and some meshes now correctly named. Honestly, I'd never noticed they were 'way off' until Mue's LOD Viewer! Please note, that Crusader's fix-its have already been applied to THIS versions' data ini. A backup copy of the original (2012) data ini is supplied, so as to lessen End User (tm) workload, and provide a safety net 'just in case'.
      This skin repesents the 115th Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the California Air National Guard from 1954 through 1959-ish.  The skin is in jpg format, and 26 all NEW serial number decals have been created for it.  While the serial numbers are historically correct for the A model, they should beconsidered generic in nature as they don't actually represent aircraft from this particular unit. However, at least 9 of these ARE actual aircraft used by the 115th; the rest =were= used by other CA ANG units. Decal randomization is TRUE. Squadron color markings are 'painted on' the skin maps. 
      On the skin selection menu, on the Loadout Page, you'll see:
      115th FIS, CA ANG (54-59)
      The SF2 "date switch" =IS= active on this skin. It will automatically be chosen for years of 1954 and later.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. 

      Happy Landings!

      This skin repesents the 144th Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the Alaska Air National Guard from 1955 through 1957-ish, when their mission changed from Air Defense to Airlift.  The skin is in jpg format, and 26 all NEW decals have been created for it.  While the serial numbers are historically correct for the E model, they should beconsidered generic in nature as they don't actually repsent aircraft from this particular unit. Decal randomization is TRUE.
      On the skin selection menu, on the Loadout Page, you'll see:
      144th FIS AK ANG (1954-58)
      The SF2 "date switch" is NOT active on this skin. You'll have to select this skin for your flightmates by hand. However it is easily added by a simple text edit.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. 

      Happy Landings!

      I hope that I succeed to make an approximate correct look of green and white paint, none of this would be possible without the original templates from our friend yakarov79, a great credit goes to him, thank you.

    19. A-1H VNAF

      By Trotski

       
      Trâu nước điên
      VNAF A-1 Skyraiders
      Also known as "The Crazy Water Buffalo"
      Hi Rez skins 
      To be used on the stock 3W SF2 A-1H Skyraiders
       
      My next set and final set for the A-1H/J Skyraiders, is the one I  just KNOW you have been waiting for in breathles anticipation !! Oh you giddy young things !! Yes these are the VNAF versions of the Skyraider. 
      The contents are as follows :-
      83 SOG 
      514 FS
      516 FS
      518 FS
      The 514 skins are just a rework of KULBIT80's skin and decal set, I have just updated the skins , the other 3 Squadrons are all new decal sets, and reworked skins, 514's skins are overall grey, 516 & 518 are pretty much standard USAF 3 tone over grey schemes with the usual over the top Vietnamese markings, SOOOOO TACTICAL !! The lack of tail markings on the 516th airframes is correct they just didnt 'ave 'em so there !! I have done the 518th skins as slightly earlier ones so I could do the snazzy white super tactical and camo friendly cowling bands, I have put anti glare panels on these skins even though in reality they didnt have them, but I thought the looked a bit odd like that so anti glare are us deal with it !! harharharhar finally the 83 SOG scheme.....I mean WOW...Really !! hyper tactical or what !! they do look we snazzy though eh chaps !! these aircraft carried no national markings except for the fin flashes, I know the reasons elude me too . 
      Anyhow as with the previous skins I have done everything is all inclusive AT NO EXTRA CHARGE mind you !! 
      All the usual shout outs to all and sundry, youre all groovy froods and you rock !!
       
      Now what are you waiting for, get into your Spad and go kick some Commie bottom !!! and of course, as always ENJOY !!!

    20. A-1J USN

      By Trotski

      SPADS !!!
      A-1J Skyraiders of the US Navy
      Hi Rez skins 
      To be used on the stock 3W SF2 A-1J Skyraiders
       
      Continuing my series of Skyraider skins, these ones are for late mark Spads, of the US Navy.
      Included are :-
      VA-25 "Fist of the Fleet" 2 different skins from 2 consecutive cruises the first on USS Coral Sea, and the secon on USS Midway
      VA-115 "Arabs" again 2 different skins, both on the same tour of duty on USS Kittyhawk, the second set are a rework of Wrench's original experimental camo scheme, again mine is not 100% accurate, but I think it conveys the general idea. Only 2 or 3 Airframes were actually painted in this scheme, but it was just easier to do all of the squadron in it, the scheme was an experiment, which was found to be non beneficial, and in fact a bit of a problem for deck crews whilst operating at night or in bad weather, so it was dropped , however it does look pretty cool, the aircraft had only very basic markings and I have tried to replicate this with these skins, the other set of  "ARABS" are in the standard Grey/White scheme.
      VA-145 "Swordsmen" aboard USS Intrepid 
      VA-152 "Friendlies" on the USS Oriskany and they were called the Friendlies at this time NOT the Black Aces, or the Fighting Aces, the Name is correct for the Time period, the Squadron I believe are now known as the Mavericks !!
      As with all my previous uploads, everything you need is in the package ( obviously you need the aircraft in the first place hahahaha ) Again I will give the Gypsies warning about the Data.ini, make sure you DO use it , or you WILL have clipping issues !!!
      I will also say, as mentioned my my friend Mr Wrench, these are not 100% completely new , shiny, you cant bend it, built from the ground up , skins, but rather total reworks of skins that are already available ( in most cases) Hopefully I have improved on previous and older ones, and I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed doing them for you all !!
       
      All the usual shout outs ( you know who you are !! ) 
       
      As always ENJOY !!!!

    21. A-1H USAF -for SF2V A-1H

      By Trotski

      SPADS , HOBO'S & ZORRO'S 
      Also known as the A-1/AD-6 Skyraider
       
      For the stock 3rd Wire SF2:V A-1H Skyraider
       
      Continuing on from my previous uploads and reworks of USN and USMC Skyraiders, I present to you, for your delectation, and enjoyment the next in my rework of our beloved mud moving , snarling, piston powered , and rather handsome USAF Versions , I have made 3 Camouflage versions of the Aircraft from the 1st SOS, 22nd SOS, and 602st SOS of the 56th Special Operations Wing .
      22 SOS is in the Zorro scheme of Camo over Nite, I am aware that not all the aircraft in the Squadron were painted this way, however rather than making a split squadron, the whole load of 'em are nite unders, if ya don't like it....well tough !!  1 SOS is done in the more usual "day" scheme, but is very dirty drab and scratched up, whilst 602's airframes are reasonably clean ( for a skyraider) And a slightly lighter colour tone with the more usual Light Grey unders.
      I have tried to get the numbers and nose art matched up on the different squadrons airframes, and yes I am aware that some of the pilots flew on different squadrons and took their aircraft's name with them, so some of the ones I have portrayed, may appear with different tail codes etc, depending on your sources.
      I have pretty much reworked the camo schemes from scratch, and I hope that these beautiful aircraft meet your approval .
      Everything you need is in the package decals, sounds, pilots , weapons etc. etc. etc. also the Data.ini for the aircraft.........Be advised, you MUST use this Data.ini with these aircraft, firstly because I have enabled the Chaff dispensers, and secondly, it kills off the clipping issue that started me off on this project in the first instance................YOU HAVE BEEN INFORMED AND WARNED!!
      That I think covers it, all the usual shout outs to Wrench and Nyghtfall for their Templates, which are instrumental in these 'ere skins And to anyone else who had anything to do with the original , aircraft, cockpits, and any other stuff that I have to be politically correct about .
      Please feel free to leave feedback ( it is much appreciated) also if you find any glitches that may have slipped by my (cough) quality control (cough) department, please give me a shout so I can attempt to fix it.
       
      Get out there, move some mud, scare the bejesus out of the baddies in Injun country, and above all ENJOY !!!
