Aircraft Skins

This is another rework of the available A-1H  Skyraider skins, this time for USMC A-1's same details as the previous upload for the USN versions. 3 of which are generic USMC airframes, the bu numbers etc are also generic as not many A1's were in use with the Marines in Vietnam as most of the squadrons had re equipped with A4's by then.
 
included are 
VMA 212 generic
VMA 225
VMA 251 generic
VMA 331
VMA 333
the reworked data.ini to stop the clipping issue
Decals
All the Sounds needed
weapons 
Pilot ( a different one from the USN one )
lo res screens if you need them
as with the previous skins I have re-enabled the wingfold system,and the canopy so the usual shift-9 for the wings and shift-0 for the canopy
 
Enjoy, fly safe, and give 'em hell.

This is a rework of the available A-1H  Skyraider skins, the project started when I noticed there was a clipping issue on the original user made skins, after the stock aircraft had been made flyable etc. being an OCD sufferer I couldn't live with it, so I had to comb the DATA.INI of the aircraft to find the issue, which I never didi, probably one number out of place , or something of that nature. So I re did the whole data file, using a frankenstien of a couple of the available ones, mainly Wrench's , so worry ye not good campers, very little has been altered, so the A/C still operates as Wrench intended, just NO CLIPPING !!! ................YAY !! RESULT !! HAPPY BLOODY DANCE !! ......
 
Anyhow, I then went on to re do all the skins, utilising the templates from bot Wrench, and Nyghtfall, so a mix and match of those as well, I hope you like and enjoy the results !!
Included are 
VA-35
VA-52 ( two versions, one dirty one clean , the clean one has new decals for the squadron markings made by me )
VA-65 (Early version )
VA-65 ( USS Enterprise )
VA-85
VA-105 ( A really shiny pristine skin ) 
VA-176 (USS Shangri La )
VA-176 (USS Intrepid)
the reworked data.ini to stop the clipping issue
Decals ( of course....no use without 'em as I have altered theDECAL.INI of all the skins , 'cos I like to make trouble harharhar )
All the Sounds needed
Finally the weapons ie drop tanks and the bog bomb, and the Pilot I myself use for this aircraft, oh yes and all the screens, both in hi res, and lo res if you need lo res screens for any reason. 
One final note, on the  VA-176 ( Intrepid ) skin, two of the aircraft have kill markings, I have put the entry to enable those in the DECAL.INI of that particular aircraft, however I have them disabled, as in reality the Bu Numbers of the skins and the Actual aircraft are not the same, and I couldnt be bothered to make the correct bu numbers for thos 2 particular aircraft, however if you do not have OCD, and you want the marking showing ( they are keyed to the correct nose numbers ) the just remove the hash marks in the DECAL.INI
[Decal019]
MeshName=Fuselage
DecalLevel=2
DecalFacing=LEFT
//FilenameFormat=A-1H/VA176a/D/kills    <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< THAT THERE !!! 
Position=-0.70,0.70
Scale=0.55
DecalMaxLOD=3
Thats about it, please enjoy, and please leave feedback if you like...........................cheers !! 
 
OH yes, I forgot one last thing, I have re-enabled the wingfold system, , yes , yes I know its not perfect, as it leaves the stores hanging in a weightless environment, but hey ho, if ya dont like it, eith re disable it or , simply ignore it !! so canopy opens with SHIFT-0 and the wingfold is SHIFT-9.

This is a set of Camouflages for Su-34
THIS IS ONLY TEXTURE SET and decals, There are no other files in this pack. This set is for persons who have this aircraft. I know that it is difficult to find this model last times. Do not ask me how to get it cuz I do not know. I got this aircraft many years ago and do not know its fate and why it is not available.
I tried to make the skins as accurate as possible. But some details missed because of the limitations of the model, some details i was too lazy to tune. As all old aircrafts, it has ugly UV map which is hard to use for texturing. Some early cammuflages can be not accurate too much to real aircraft for some details. There is a long "antiblick" strip over white nose on one photo, and the same aircraft has short strip before gray nose at another photo, one aircraft has "no step" dashes, anothe haven't it etc. Сoloration is often very different from year to year and sometimes from an aircraft to an aircraft from the same serie.
If you ask me why there is a chaos in a decal folder, the answer is that there is a chaos only for a first look ;) I used decals from NATO fighters pack and all decals on places which in that pack. I do not like doubles and i do like in my Mod folder. That is why decals not in one folder.
Skins was drawn based on outlines by Mariusz Wojciechowski and real photos.

NEW SKINS:
Prototype Su-32 1993
Prototype Su-32 1995
Le Bourget 1997
Russia_1 - Standard modern colors
Russia_2 - Standard modern colors with "No Step" marks
Serial Su-34 2006
OLD SKINS
Aubergine 2011 - old gray skin from pack below looks too black in game. i tuned it and made some decals.
Aubergine 2012 - same with color tunes and some different decals for 2012 with "No Step" marks
===========
BACK UP you original Su-34  folder first.
installation: unpack and copy to your installed Su-34 folder. Be sure to overwrite the decals folder. It is very important! There is a fix for the  UV grid of the original model, cause of which the tail had a reflection of the another. All other decals like numbers are not changed and ruins nothing if you overwrite. If you didnt changed them youself.

Overview
TW's Mirage IIIO DLC with a SEA camouflage scheme based on the scheme used by the Mirage 5BAs of the Belgian Air Force. I did it because I never found the European camouflage on the Mirages to be all that sensible for Australia, the SEA scheme looks like a better fit. 
The skins are entirely generic, just the camouflage scheme, so it can fit any nation. No markings are provided, only decals are used. You must have the Mirage IIIO DLC for the RAAF decals. All the decal inis are taken straight from the Mirage IIIO DLC. 
The skins should work for any Mirage IIIE derivative. There were some changes to panel lines and lights for the Mirage IIIO, so the texture for the nose does not precisely fit the Mirage IIIC. That said, I can make a nose texture for the M3C if asked. Simple enough. The template used was Ludo's Mirage IIIC DLC template.

This is a set of Camouflages for Mirage Factory Mig-29A and C. Firstest in Ukraine ever and lastest but not least.
History:
At the beginning of 1991 it became clear that Soviet Russia would not be able to retain Ukraine under the occupation more. The grip of the communist beast has dramatically weakened.
Patriotic-minded technician crews began to paint over the red stars with a green colour and atop of it the blue Ukrainian Shield with Trident.  First MiGs which changed the aggressor's stars to Ukrainian marks was at Crimea Belbek. It was yellow trident in a blue circle and  blue circles and a big yellow dot in it at wings.
August 24, 1991 was proclaimed the independence of Ukraine. Soon, officially, new insignia, a square shield with a trident and yellow circles with blue big dot in them were approved. All MiGs  got new identification marks and shields for the tails. Soon they got new camouflages and was recolored in gray-blue scheme and gray-grean Ukrainian scheme.
====================
In 2011,  MiG-29Cs were upgraded to the MU1 version. The main task of the upgrade was giving the aircraft ability to load and use Kh-29 missile. MiG-29MU1s  got new avionics, new weapons and new Digital Camouflage. At 2012 the Ukrainian air force received this aircrafts.
====================
Installation:
1. Unpack files to your mod folder as you do usual with mods. You need installed Mirage Factory Fulcrums. CHECK YOUR FOLDERS! It can be different then mine.
I done skin with "official" tail Shield for MiG-29A and  with "non ufficial" rounded shield for MiG-29C to both aircraft appear in game with different shields, cuz in real, some times both variants was at Ukrainian Sky.
2. You need to correct start year in your NATIONS.INI if you have it in mod folder:
[NationXXX]
Name=Ukraine
DisplayName=Ukrainian Air Force
Alignment=FRIENDLY
...
StartDate=1991
3. Add in your MiG-29A_USERLIST.INI if you have n't it yet
[Ukraine]
ServiceStartYear=1991
ServiceEndYear=2000
Availability=RARE
and in your MiG-29C_USERLIST.INI
[Ukraine]
ServiceStartYear=1991
ServiceEndYear=2040
Availability=COMMON

In reality, more common aircraft for Ukrainian Air forces is MiG-29C type 9-13 (Hunchbacked). MiG-29A type 9-12 is very rare. If you fly Baltica's "Orange Revolution 2004" i recommend to change some MiG-29As to C in his company files.
White numbers of Digital Camo is not correct to real aircrafts. Must be white numbers and blue outline and white numbers and yellow outline. If you have anough health to outline all needed decals do not stop youself. I haven't. Please  make this work if you want and share it. You can fix skins, improve, redraw and use in your packs.

Hi to all, I'm Astore. Thanks for downloading my skin pack ! 
The UPEO (Universal Peace Enforcement Organization) is a fictional faction featured in the Ace Combat game series, and the main faction of Ace Combat 3 Electrosphere. 
The Universal Peace Enforcement Organization is an international peacekeeping organization under the Neo United Nations. UPEO maintains the SARF (Special Armed Response Force) when military intervention is required for peacekeeping duties, as well as the Euro-Asia Public Network for neutral, continent-wide broadcasting.
Despite its aim of enforcing peace, UPEO was a puppet of General Resource Limited until the late 2030s. The organization became more independent with the rise of Neucom Incorporated and with Gabriel William Clarkson taking office as UPEO's representative.
UPEO is the player's initial organization at the start of Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere. In the Japanese version of the game, the player can defect from UPEO to either General Resource or Neucom.
It has shown that their equipment is of two main aircraft carriers, a Nimitz class and an Air Vector UI-4053 Sphyrna, still in construction during the early events of the game. Their main base, is a military airport at the center of Expo City, the eastern city of the USEA continent excluding Megafloat, which is a floating-island city.
The UPEO Air Fleet is composed by future versions of actual aircraft and some fictionals since the game is set in 2040 of the Strangereal Universe, but the only fictional continent invented at the game exit was the USEA, so, since the faction seems to be universal, there could be several other planes operative in other nations, which have been introduced only in Ace Combat 5 The Unsung War (That is set in 2015).
Main air fleet
EF-2000 Typhoon II -Base plane, multirole fighter-
Mig-33 Fulcrum SS -Interceptors-
F/A-18 Hornet ADV -Multirole, got from the General Resource LDT faction
F-16XF Gyrfalcon -Air superiority, got from the General Resource LDT faction
R-101U Delphinus I -Base plane of the R Fleet from Neucom.Inc faction
R-201U Asterozoa -Heavy attacker fighter, Attacker from the R Fleet of the Neucom.Inc Faction
SU-37 SUPERFLANKER II -Multirole, mainly Air Supremacy.-
SU-43 Berkut -Multirole, mainly Air Supremacy.-
UI-4053 Sphyrna - Heavy Air vector with the fuction of a flying aircraft carrier with jamming capabilities and interior hangar to store at least 20 planes. 
R-505U -Presidential plane of Rapresentative Gabriel William Clarkson

Skin Pack: 
F-15 D ACTIVE -UPEO and GR Skins-
F-16A_Blk1 (Stock F-16) -UPEO skin-
FA-18a (Stock F-18) -UPEO skin- 
FA-27C (Yukikaze Planes Addon) -UPEO and NEU Skins-

SU-47 -UPEO Skin-
Typhoon -UPEO Skin and Typhoon ace skin-
CVN-56 / Admiral 56 (Yukikaze Aircraft Carrier Addon) -UPEO Skin-
Installation: Open the aircraft folder from the downloaded content, and copy/move the UPEO (and variant) folders to the plane's folder in your SF2 (StrikeFighters2>Objects>Aircraft>Your plane folder. Same for the Aircraft Carrier skin: StrikeFighters2>Objects>GroundObjects>Admiral56) There's no need to overwrite on other folders, just add them in the specific folders. My skins does not requires decals, since the emblems are painted in the skin.
If the skin doesn't work or shows leaving your aircraft black, it's possible that you are using a different version of the plane from an another addon, or that your game doesn't read the skin format. When this happen, copy the skin files to save them, then try to change their format (Like JPG). If the skin sets are the same for other models with the same skin mapping, they should work too. 
You can make a UPEO Nation in your INI Files continuing the list of nations. Be sure that the Nation number continues the series. In my case since I already got 271 Nations in my file, I've wrote Nation272 to make it work. But you could have to change the number.

Most of these planes should work also on SF Gold. I've started working on the skin pack from Gold and then moved to SF2. Actually, also the F-18 has been downloaded from the FX Interactive site, but the addon from CombatAce should work too. To install manually the aircraft from that site, download them, the site will give a laucher-sort file. Ignore it, do mouse-right click and extract the files. You should obtain the aircraft folder to put in your SFG/SF2 aircraft folder, and it should work. Some of the templates for aircrafts were missing, then I had to make some new by hand, like for the F-15D Active. The older skins could be not at the same quality since I was working on SFG, but they'll be remade in future. 

Bugs and errors: The files shouldn't damage your game, if something doesn't work just remove the folder of the skin. 
The only bug I actually know is in the F-15 D ACTIVE canards, which couldn't be painted. It was the only Active I found, if you use it in SF2 be sure to insert also a cockpit file. 
You can customize the skins if you want to, credit me when you post screens or other in way to allow other players to find the download. Don't forget to rate, good or bad.
This was my first skin pack, I hope I didn't messed up and that everything works. Maybe I'll do other skins in future. Have fun !
 

Su-33 Camo for Su-27M (What if)
Alternative history :
[TRUE] The aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov set sail on 15 October 2016 from the Kola Bay for takin part in Russian agression against Syria. The carrier was accompanied by an ocean-going tugboat, as a precaution due to potential propulsion failure.
The airwing included 6-8 Su-33 fighters, 4 Mig-29K/KUBR multi-role aircraf.
On 14 November 2016, a MiG-29K crashed into the sea after taking off from the carrier.
On 15 November 2016, Admiral Kuznetsov, took part in bombing Syria.
On 3 December 2016, an Su-33 crashed into the sea after attempting to land on the carrier.
[FICTION] On 4 December early in the morning, the aircraft carrier's radar detected more than a dozen unknown air targets approaching their ship. In a panic, the Russians raised all Su-33 fighters to protect their aircraft carrier. But it was too late. In a matter of minutes all Su-33 planes were shot down. To this day it remains a mystery whether these were F-22 stelth aircraft or they were Israeli F-35 aircraft. Some person tells even it was martians.
These cheerless news came to the Kremlin. The news of the loss of all Su-33 aircraft could not be published in the Russian mass media. Dumbfounded militarist propaganda residents, could inadequately respond to such a defeat of their troops. It was decided to hush up the news.
Dmitry Rogozin minister of Defense Industry of Russia, suggested that all existing Su-27M to repaint in Su-33 camouflage colors.
A few days later,  at night at  low altitude, all repainted Su-27Ms flew to Syria and start imitating the presence of the Su-33 in Syria and showed themselves in propaganda TV plots. We are waiting for the further events. BBC News, cpecial report, Syria.

========
installation: unpack and copy to your installed before Su-27M or Su-37 folder. Be sure to overwrite the decals folder. It is very important! There is a fix for the  UV grid of the original model, cause of which the second wing had a reflection of the first that the aircraft was disfiguring.

SF2 A-4 Skyhawk "Southland Scooters" Skin/Decals Pack              3/2/2018
= For SF2 (Any & All, Full-5 Merged Prefered) =
*Can be used in any install that has access to the A-4C_65 & A-4F*
2 new skins for a couple of the stock 3W Skyhawks. These represent "local" A-4 units from
Southern California; my home turf! :) They are either Reserve Squadron (VA-305) or a Service,
Support, Training Unit (VC-7).
Also included for the A-4F, are a modified Data and loadout inis, correcting/adding to the
Mission tasking loadouts.  Several new parts are included that correct and add the missing outer
Sidewinder rails. Both aircraft get the Player operated manual canopy, and landing light. 
The skins included are for:
A-4C_65:
VA-305 "Lobos" based at NAS (now JFB) Los Alamitos *-see notes-*
A-4F:
VC-7 "Tallyhoers" (or Redtails) based at NAS Miramar

Skins are brand new, from Nyghtfall's templates, and are in jpg format. Most markings are
decals, excepting certain squadron tags on the tail fin & rudder (VC-7 and/or fuselage bands
(VA-305).  These had to be painted on due to number-of-decals-per-mesh restrictions. All BuNums
are historiclly correct for aircraft used by both squardrons; unfortunately, they could not all
be matched to their corresponding Modex. On the Loadout screen's individual aircraft dropdown
listing, those marked with a star (*) are matched.
Also added, via Magical Ini Dancing (tm) are missile rails for the OUTBOARD pylons on the A-4F,
as is correct for all 5-hardpointed Skyhawks. These are added via the loadout ini through
various jiggery-pokery and at great expense. They are only used in the "Air-to-Air" tasking (and
Recon), and will/do not effect any Strike, CAS, Auntie-Ship or other attack missions.
These modification can also be added, using the same data ini edits, to all the A-4E and later
models. With some luck, they will =NOT= interfere with any of the Skyhawks released by
Nyghtfall. If in doubt, back up your original data and loadout inis before installing.
The canopy uses the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0.
When on the Loadout screen, for skin/squadron selection, on the Dropdown menu you'll see
A-4C_65:
VA-305 Lobos (NAS Los Alamitos 70/71)
A-4F:
VC-7 Redtails (NAS Miramar 1973-80)
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read
them .... Also, DO give the Notes section a read as well, for enlightenments, illuminations, and
general ramblings. With MANY thanks to Nyghtfall for his invaluable assistance!!! :)
Happy Landings!

SF2NA A-6E (TRAM) Intruder, VA-34,VA-55,VA-85 Early Lo-Viz Skin/Decals Pack    2/15/2018
= For SF2 (Any & All, Full-5 Merged Prefered) =
*Can be used in any install that has access to the A-6E_79 (aka: TRAM)*
3 new skins for the 3W A-6E_79 Intruder that depict the 3 squadrons that participated in the
"Freedom of Navigation" exercises in the Gulf of Sidra during 1986, and subsequent strikes
against various Libyan targets (El Dorado Canyon).
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE.  All serial (BuAerNums) are correct as they
are for the A-6E, but should be considered Generic (tm) in nature, not representing specific
aircraft in any particular squadron. In fact, all 3 skins use them as a 'pool' of decals. 
The Default Start Date switch is used on this skin, so in 1983, you should see only these. The
skin maps are new; The aircraft is finished in the 2-tone Compass Ghost Grey over Medium Grey
scheme, with subdued markings (black and light grey). The skins are in jpg format.
The aircraft are:
VA-34 Blue Blasters, USS AMERICA 
VA-55 Warhorses, USS CORAL SEA
VA-85 Black Falcons, USS SARATOGA 
As these are 'stock' squadrons in the 3rd Wire listing, Level=1 decals are used to activate the
squadron name display. This should make it easy for campaign builders to use them in user-made
campaigns or single missions (like on Menrva's new Libyan terrain).
Please note, =NOTHING= is included that makes the aircraft flyable; no inis, cockpit parts (I
use the Razbam payware pit on my A-6E & A-6E TRAMs). You should have made them flyable or need
to seek the "parts" on your own. 
Also, if you have made it flyable, and use the "Read Only" trick on the main ini (A-6E_79.ini),
you'll have to un-read only it to add this skin.
While specificly designed for the A-6E_79, this mod =should= be compatible with the A-6 Intruder
MegaPack by Homefries; the skins use unique squadron named folders and should not conflict or
interfere with it (even though said squadrons also exist in his pack, as Level=1 statments,
selectable from the Squadron Dropdown on the Loadout screen). Please note the "1983" start date
is an arbitrary year, based on my research as a "best guess".
On the Loadout Screen, for skin selection you'll see:
VA-34 Blue Blasters (2-Tone 1983)
VA-55 Warhorses (2-Tone 1983)
VA-85 Black Falcons (2-Tone 1983)
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read
them .... 
Happy Landings!

What is it?
It's a paint scheme for the Su-27 Flanker of the Belkan Air Force, 5th Air Division, 23rd Tactical Fighter Squadron, "Gelb" Team from the game Ace Combat Zero
The Gelb Team, of the Belkan Air Force's 23rd Tactical Fighter Squadron, consists of a two-plane formation of two Su-37 Terminators. The squad's leader, Major Orbert Jager, and his wingman, Lieutenant Rainer Altman, were the pilots assigned to the Gelb Team. They were commonly assigned to interception missions along the Hydrian Line, the southern defence line. Due to their flawless and synchronized flying style, the two pilots became known as the "Coupled Cormorants".
In the beginning of the Belkan War in 1995, the Gelb Team was a large part of Belka's air and ground superiority, despite their odd formation. It was the flexibility their formation provided which allowed them to be more effective than a classic fighter squadron. However, when the Allied Forces went on the offensive, the Hydrian Line was stretched thin. The Gelb Team was forced to sortie five times a day in order to maintain the line, but due to the sudden attack, were left with little logistics support and not receiving even basic maintenance for their aircraft.
Despite being overused, the "Coupled Cormorants" maintained the battle-line, until they were sent to the Ustian capital, Directus, in order to stop the city from being retaken by the Allied Forces. However, they arrived late into the battlefield, but did engage the Ustian 6th Air Division, 66th Air Force Unit "Galm Team" and were shot down. The flight leader was killed in action, but Gelb 2 his wingman ejected safely and later went on to settle in the city where he was shot down over.
**I've used Marcfighter's Su-27 Flanker instead due to it being more commonly used, in addition to the fact that the template is actually available.**

What is it?
It's a paintscheme for the SAAB J-35J Draken  and Dassault Rafale-M F1of the Sapin Air Force, 9th Air and Land Division, 11th Tactical Fighter Squadron "Espada" from the game Ace Combat Zero
Espada Team, formerly members of the 9th Air and Land Division, 11th Tactical Fighter Squadron, is a fighter squadron from Sapin that participated in the A World With No Boundaries uprising.
The operational history behind the Espada Squadron is unknown, but it is known that Marcela Vasquez held a relationship with her commander, Alberto Lopez. In October of 1995, Lopez defected to A World With No Boundaries movement that rose in central Osea after the Belkan War, abandoning their base in Sapin and disappearing without a trace. They were not the only soldiers from Sapin to join the group, as Air Force commander Ramos Gonzales and his Suerte Squadron followed suit. 
On 25 December of 1995, the squadron accompanied the XB-0 Hresvelgr during the bombing of Lumen in the coup d'etat, along with other rebel pilots from the movement, and carried out airstrikes on Valais Air Base later that day. Galm Team pursued the XB-0 to the Waldreich Mountains, where it clashed with Espada. Vasquez and Lopez were shot down, and the squadron was disbanded.
