SF2 F-86F-40 Sabre Remod Pak
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-4/5 Merged (Full-5 Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
A remod/compliation of several F-86F Skin/Ini paks, now fully compliant with SF2. If you have the originals, you'll probably want to delete them, as THIS pack is designed to FULLY replace it.
It is also suggested you be at the latest patch level, due to some ini 'switches' used.
 
This pak contains the following skin/decal sets:
 
JASDF:
1 Kokutai
3 Kokutai
6 Kokutai
8 Kokutai
 
Imperial Iranian AF
Ethiopian AF
461st FDS, 50th FBW, USAFE 1956-ish (*note: in RL, was possbily -30 or -35)
and an extra 'blank' natural metal skin, that you can use for whatever.
 
Included:
NEW SF2 compliant FM (from KAW)
New 'sabre specific' HVAR A-G rocket (station specific coded)
NEW cockpit (from the KAW F-86F)
NEW Sounds (from KAW)
'fake pilot' wing fences
tweeks by Crusader for the KAW Sabres (well done Otto!!)
 
All skins are in jpg format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. The loadout ini uses the Year and Nation specific loadout switches for some of the export users, as defined in the enclosed Userlist.ini. Damage textures are the same DDS units as seen with the KAW Sabres. Other than the 'new' rocket, no other weapons are included, excepting the drop tank.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet semi-detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, please give the "Notes" section a read too.

SF2 WW2 ETO P-47 Bubbletop Pak
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*There is a possibility that this mod may work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs. However due to the excessive modifications made to fit into the SF2 environment, not all features will be avaliable. As stated, reccomended for FUll-5 merged, as some decals referenced for the AdA skin use stock 3W decal callouts*
*Note X2: this mod is designed for use =ONLY= in the ETO envrionment. Specific versions for use in the MTO will be released seperatly, when required (and available!)*
 
Mods to Wolf257's P-47D Bubbletop Thunderbolt. This package "represents" mid production (-25) Jugs, of the 8th and 9th Air Forces, from the mid war to the end of the war time frame.
This is a FULL aircraft pak, designed to =REPLACE= any others you may have, with (pretty much) all the trimmings. This pack contains the following skin/decal sets:
 
63rd FS, 56th FG (NM only)
62nd FS, 56th FG (Camo, w/Invasion Stripes
377th FS, 362nd FG (NM, w/Invasion Stripes)
GC II/5 "Lafayette" (Free French)
 
Decal randomization is TRUE, and the NEW skins are in Jpg format. Nose arts for some are included, and are 98.6% historically accurate for the USAAF sets.
Weapons (excpeting bombs), pilot figure, and engine sound are included. A New 'box art' style Hangar, now fully SF2 compliant, is included for your viewing pleasure. 2 different Loading Screens are included; you can switch them to whichever you like better!
 
Any changes that have been introduced, are listed in the 'ChangeLog', in the "Notes" section.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Wolfs original readmes, when discoverable, are included for historical purposes. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. Please READ the 'To Install" section after unzipping, but BEFORE installing for an important note about possible conflicts with other Jug mods. And, as always, full credits for those who's eariler mods I "borrowed" from (ie: Major Lee).
*Remember, these LODs are very old, and are released in "as is" condition.*

SF2 P-80 Shooting Star, World War 2: 1946 mod
 
= For SF2 (Full4/5 Merged ONLY)
- For WW2 ETO "Luft 46" & PTO "SWOTP" style installs -
 
**This mod will ONLY work in SF2 Game Installs.***
 
Mods to the KAW F-80 by ErikGen (re)create a "What If..." version for WW2:46 usage. This mod will REPLACE the version I built many years ago from the Pasko F-80. However, I DID reuse the decals (you all know how much I hate wasting good decals!!!), and actually had to remake a few. So, if you have the earlier 1stGen mod of Pasko's, you are instructed to delete the aircraft and decals folders. As stated, this replaces that one COMPLETLY!!
 
This is the complete aircraft, with almost everything you need! I didn't include any weapons (bombs, rockets, etc) other than the drop tank data inis, as the tanks are built into the aircraft LOD. The pilot figure you also should have already.
You'll find in this zip 3 skin and decal sets:
 
ETO:
336th FS 4th FG
487th FS, 352nd FG (Blue Nosed Bastards of Bodney)
 
PTO:
416th Fighter Group (74 aircraft!!!) -historically, the furst unit to field them, post-war.
 
Given the "What If.." nature of the mod, the start service date is listed as April, 1945. This makes the assumption (oh!! that word!!) the Normandy landings did NOT succeed, and more jets were appearing in Luftwaffe service. So, 8th Fighter Command rushed into service the P-80A Shooting Star to counter them.
Same can be said for the PTO version; based on Okinawa for Operation Olympic, they can reach Kyushu fairly easily.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Also, the "Notes" section for other important stuff of interest.
 
Happy Landings!

*yes, even though 6 P-80s were touring Europe and the Med in 1945, they were NOT operationaly used. Given the speculative nature of the mod, it has been placed here, in "The What If.." hangar, and not into the WW2 aircraft downloads section. Enjoy!*

SF2 WW2 Focke Wulf P.II Jet Fighter by Timmy - A What If Luft '46 Mod
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged ( Full-5 Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*There is a possibility that this mod may work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs. However due to the excessive modifications made to fit into the SF2 environment, not all features will be avaliable.*
*Note X2: this mod is designed for use =ONLY= in the ETO envrionment. A seperate skin for the MTO is included, but not 'activated'
 
Mods, rebuilds, and general 'messing with' for Timmy's FW P.II jet fighter, to bring it more in line with SF2 useage.
This mod is designed to REPLACE any 1stGen variant you may have in your WW2 ETO intalls. It is reccomended you delete the aircraft and decals folders of the originals, as to NOT cause any conflicts with THIS mod.
This package represents P.II Project, as a production model called "Ta-173" (I couldn't think of anything else!) as deployed in Western Europe and the Med. Skins/Decals in this pak are:
 
JG 1 Oesau
 
JG 2 Richthofen
 
JG27 Afrika, in a overall 'tan' desert camo (stored in a seperate folder inside the main aircraft folder called 'a-MTO skin'). It is suggested that this skin ONLY be used in an MTO-centric mods folder (it would look funny in western Europe!!)
 
Skins are in their original bmp format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. New damage textures are included, in DDS format.
 
A (semi) compliant SF2 FM was cobbled together from various sources. As always, while it works well enough, further fine tuning is required by Experten.
Sounds, pilot figures and weapons (R4M rack) are included, as well a new SF2 Hangar and/or Loading screens, in jpg format.
Mission tasking has been limited, due to the aircraft's rather short range.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Timmy's original readme is included for historical purposes.

Vought Corsair MK.2, RN Fleet Air Arm, by Mod Mafia/TMF
 
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: There is a distinct possibility that this mod =MAY= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs.
However, due to the excessive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment. End
Users ™ that attempt to do so, do so at their own risk. A Full 4/5 Merged install is
reccomened; at very minimum, SF2:V is required, as this aricraft references the A-1H's
destroyed model. Also, some of the SF2 only "switches" will NOT work in 1stGens.*
 
*Note #2: this model will REPLACE, in it's entirety, those using Wolf's as a base. You may
(well, should!) delete that mod completly; both the aircraft and decals folders. These, again,
will replace them.*
 
A brand "new" model that was never completed when Bpao passed away a few year back. I've been
fortunate enough to be allowed to complete his work, as a member of the Mod Mafia.
 
This is the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm Corsair Mk.2 (with clipped wingtips) as seen 1943 and
later aboard RN carriers in the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans.
 
Skin/Decals are included are for:
 
1842 NAS, HMS FORMIDABLE (during the time of the TIRPIZ raids; tagged as "Home Fleet")
1830 NAS, HMS ILLUSTRIOUS (tagged as East Indes Fleet or "EIF", with SEA style markings)
 
Both skins are in 'standard' Fleet Air Arm 2-tone camo.
All skins are in jpg format, Decal Randomization is TRUE. A new-ish SF2 'box art' style hangar
screen was (re)created for this aircraft. Damage textures are the old tga versions.
Decals are used for all markings, and Randomization is set to TRUE.
A user list is included; operational service dates have been rounded to the closest whole
month, even though this is a "Nationalized" , no-exported Royal Navy version.
 
The aircraft is fully carrier capable. The canopy operates via the Standard Animation Keystorke
™ of Shift/0. Like the other MM/TMF Corsairs, the wingfold operates via the "airbrakes" key.
All lighting is historically accurate. WW2 weapons (ie: bombs, rockets) are NOT included. You
should have them already. The drop tank is (as there were some slight adjustments to the F4U
Early 150 gallon tank, and this WILL replace the original from the USN versions), as is the
pilot figure and engine sounds (which you may also have already!).
 
When 'in game', you'll see
 
"Corsair Mk.II FAA (TMF)"
 
in the aircraft selection drop-down window. This will diferentiate it from any other Mk.IIs you
may (or may not) have.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read
them!!!
 
Happy Landings!

SF2 WW2 Italian Aircraft Pak
 
= For SF2 (Full4/5 Merged RECCOMENDED!)
- Something for your MTO-Centric Installs -
 
**Note: Having SF2I Expansion Pak 1 is HIGHLY reccomended, as a few of the destroyed models referenced reach over to the stock destroyed C-47A. If you do NOT have Exp1, you will NOT have the burning wreck on the ground. You will have to locate some other destroyed model for use. Also, due to the extensive modifications to the cockpit and data ini, this mod will absolutely -NOT- work in 06 level 1stGen game installs. 08 Level 1stGens may have some issues, but this has not/cannot be tested by me.**
 
This pak contains a reissue of Veltro2K's WW2 Italian Air Force (Regia Aeronautica) aircraft. These are the complete aircraft, with various/sundry changes.
 
This pak contains:
 
Fiat CR.42 "Falco"
(will show in-game as "Fiat CR.42 Falco (V2K)" in game)
 
Fiat BR.20 "Cicogna"
Medium bomber
 
Piaggio P.108
Heavy Bomber (no name appears to have been given to it)
 
Sounds, weapons, guns are included. New SF-2 compliant Hangar and/or Loading screens were either converted or new builds for this pak. They are, for the most part the "box art" style.
The Falco has as many 1stGen skins as I could find, and they've been incorporated into this pak. Most skins remain in their bmp format, but have been slightly resized. Decal randomization is set to TRUE. User lists have NOT been created; consider these non-exported, RA use only aircraft.
 
See "Changes" in the Notes section for more details. When possible, the original release readmes have been included (LloydNB's Falco skins).
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! =PLEASE= read the "Notes" section for the change list, and other important notations. Also, the Legal Statement has been changed with regards to these aircraft.
For those that still have the original releases, it's advised you delete the aircraft and decals folders for them; this pak is designed to replace them in total.
 
**These aircraft herein are released in "AS IS" Condition. The source files have been lost, and there can and WILL be no modifications to the physical model. They 'are as they is' and you must accept them with this caveat in mind. Any and all issues/problems that cannot be solved via ini edits will exist forever, as new models are unlikely to be created**

This pak contains a reissue of Veltro2K's RAF light, medium and heavy bombers used by the RAF during WW2. Unless otherwise notated, all are RAF Bomber Command squadrons. This (VERY LARGE!) pak contains the following aircraft/skin sets (the name in parenthesis is the actual skin folder name)...
 
-Handley Page Halifax
10 Squadron (Hali)

VBP-82, US Navy, NAS Argentia, Newfoundland (USN)
 
-Short Stirling
7 Squadron (Stir)
 
-Vickers Wellington
12 Squadron (12)
 
Skins remain in bmp format, decal randomization is set to TRUE. Almost all the original decals have been replaced (squadron codes, aircraft ID letters, serials on some, etc) with new builds or repurposed units from my stock of RAF codes. Almost all markings ARE decals. There are no nose arts. Damage textures are in DDS format. Weapons (the RAF bomb set and the 303 gun) are included.
All the 1stGen Hangar and Loading screens were either rebuilt to SF2-spec, or created new for this package. They are in jpg format.
 
The various inis make use of the 'hide component' or the 'open cockpit' statements to make sure the cockpits are where they're supposed to be. This, unfortunately, prevents their use in SF/Wo* games at the 06 patch level, as stated above. Flight modeling, for the most part, remains as originally issued.
*Note: includes any/all "tweeks paks" released after the original releases*

A reskining/redecaling for Wolf's FW-190A5, recreate the SNCAC NC-900 variant. Approximately 120 of these aircraft were 'reassembled' from bits in service/repair depots/etc and used in the immedate Post-War period by the French Air Force. This is NOT a "What If..." aircraft.
Skins are in jpg format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. There are 26 'serial number' markings for the tail. Use of my (patent pending) 'fake SqTail' Level 1 decal allows the game engine to assign it to 'Normandy Neimen', although in the 1945-48 time frame in carred the GC III/5 designation
 
Like the WW2 Luftwaffe Fw-190s, is share the same (semi) compliant SF2 FM As always, while it works quite well, further fine tuning is required by Experts.
Sounds, pilot figures, 'fake pilot' and pylons are are included, as well a new Hangar Screen. Guns use the 'standard' WW2 Luftwaffe cannon and machine guns; the French (AdA series) bombs, drop tank and ETC MER are not. They can be found with the other FWs, and the WW2 French Aircraft paks (for the bombs).
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Also, the "Notes" section for other important stuff of interest.

Some remods/tweeks/partial reskinning and new decals for the recently (re)released C-141B

All the painted on markings have been removed, and new decals are used in their places. The
tail flash represents the 438th AW out of McGuire AFB. Many other small changes have been
effected; new avionics ini, lights moved (or removed), etc and so forth. Not a full and total
rebuild, just some tweeks for minor improvements. The partial templates I created/used for this

SF2 USAF/NATO/Western Cargo Planes by Veltro2K
 
-For SF2, Any and All-
 
This is a re-release of these aircraft, as some have stated a desire to have them again.
This pak includes all my reskins, decals, ini tweeks,etc, from the various "upgrade paks" I'd
released before the aircraft were disappeared.
This pak contains =ONLY= those aircraft used by the USAF, our Allies and other NATO powers. The
Soviet/Warsaw Pact transports are someplace else....
 
Included in this pack are:
 
C-141A Starlifer
C-141B Starlifter
C-5A Galaxy
C-17 Globemaster III
G-222 Spartan (called such in USAF service)
 
Some may be more complete than others, with regards to decals and such. Some are fairly
'untouched', and will need further decaling, etc. Some hangar and loading screens are NOT in
SF2 format, and will need redoing (meaning: I never got around to them!).
All the original readmes from the Upgrade Paks (I could find!) are included within this main
folder. I'd reccomend reading them, just for fun!
Skin and some decal templates (again, when I could find them!) are included. The decal template
is for the "ttag" decal, that is for USAF AMC usage.
This pak is quite large, as the skins remain in their bmp format. You can convert to jpg at you
convience.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read
them!!! PLEASE read the "Notes" section for other important notations. Also, the Legal
Statement has been changed with regards to these aircraft.
 
For those that still have the original releases, you may not need to reapply this package. But,
to be safe, PLEASE check over your aircraft to be sure. Thank You :).
 
**These aircraft herein are re-released in "AS IS" Condition. There are/may be some issues with

F-20A/F-20B Tigershark ReMod Pak
 
=For SF2, Any and All (but Full 4/5 Merged RECCOMENDED!!)
 
- A "What If..." Aircraft Mod -
 
*Full 4/5 Merged reccomended, as the RAF skin make use of the stock 3W F-4M serial number and plane-in-group letters. You =MUST= have, at least, SF2:E as part of you game installs. If not, you'll have to find substitute decals for the RAF skins*
 
This is a re-release of Veltro2k's F-20 Tigersharks. This pak contains 2 complete aircraft, the single-seat F-20A and the 2-seat F-20B. Both are fully combat capable, however certain mission tasking is NOT assigned to the F-20B, due to hardpoint limitations, and the lack of an internal ECM suite (no jammer; chaff & flares included at no extra cost).
 
Skin/Decals included in this pack are (names in paranthesis are the actual folder names):
 
F-20A:
2 Tone Blue/Gray (2Tone - nation tagged as 'generic' -would be a good HAF skin!)
Air Superiority Gray (Gray - nation tagged as 'generic')
10th TFS, 50th TFW (Gray2)
1 Hikotai, JASDF Martime Blue (JASDF)
57th FW, Nellis AFB (Nellis)
ROCAF Gray (ROCAF)
92 Sqdn, RAF overall Gray (RAF)
92 Sqdn, RAF Grey Green (RAF1)
92 Sqdn, RAF Grey Green 2 (RAF2) -loviz markings
75 Sqdn RNZAF (RNZAF)
ROCAF Gray -no squadron- (ROCAF)
RSAF - Saudi Arabia (RSAF)
110th FS, 131st FW, MO ANG "Lindberg's Own" (MOANG)
114th FS, 173rd FW OR ANG (ORANG)
119th FW, ND ANG "Happy Hooligans" (NDANG)
159th FIS, FL ANG (FLANG)
Football City Air Force (FBCAF -from "The Wingman" series)
 
F-20B:
57th FW, Nellis AFB (Gray)
56th FW, Luke AFB 2 Tone (USAF)
 
Decal randomization is set to TRUE for all. Skin templates for BOTH aircraft are included, as are several decal templates. Skinners/decalers are ENCOURAGED! to create other users/markings/etc. Damage textures are in DDS format.
Unfortunately, the archived zip file for the original skin/ini mods was corrupted, and I was unable to retreive all the information from it about them.
 
When 'in game', you'll see
 
F-20A TigerShark (v2k)
 
F-20B TigerShark (v2k)
 
displayed on the aircraft selection drop-down window. This will differentiate these aircraft from any other Tigersharks that may exist.
 
No weapons are included, as it references (for the most part) stock items or those from the GunnyPak, or other aircraft mods (in particular, the JASDF EO bomb), but sounds are. The spine antenna & intake "thingy" created by Raven is included, along with the FakePilot needed to "attach" it to the F-20A.
The loadout ini makes use of nation-specific and start-year specific loadouts. Some even actually work as advertised. The included Userlists are correct; the countries listed were those that actually considered the Tigershark at one time.
The canopy operates via the Standard Animation Keystroke, Shift/0. The FM remains essentially the same, and REALLY needs MAJOR fine tuning by an Expert! (no, seriously! it can be a bit squirrelly at times)
 
This is a VERY large package (771 MG unzipped), as all the skins remain in their 2048x2048 bmp format (approx 12megs per map!). You can, of course, convert to jpg at your leisure. It's sorta suggested, ya know!?, for those with limited HD space.
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Also, the Legal Statement has been changed with regards to these aircraft.
For those that still have the original releases, you need not redownload this pak; you should have everything within it already. But if you want too ... feel free to do so! :). There HAVE been several changes in several of the inis you may wish to examine, and add.
 
**These aircraft herein are released in "AS IS" Condition. Any and all issues/problems that cannot be solved via ini edits will exist forever, as new models are unlikely to be created**.
 
Good Hunting, and Happy Landings!!

ps: the screenies are from the original release, and do not reflect the addition of the ADF blade antenna. Also, not all the included are displayed. The others are inside the zip.

SF2 WW2 PTO Mitsubishi G3M Nell Pak by Veltro2K
 
-- Something for the PTO players --
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (ONLY!!!) =
 
*** Important Note: due to the use of SF2NA coding for the Naval Strike (aka 'Cruise Missle') usage, you MUST have built you PTO mods folder from the SF2NA exe. The torpedo supplied herein is set as a short range cruise missile, and will ABSOLUTELY NOT work in 1stGens at any patch level, and may not work properly in SF2 game installs withOUT SF2NA in the merged core files. Also, the use of 'open cockpit' and other statements in various inis preclude it use in SF/Wo* 1stGen games. Also, having SF2I Expansion Pak 1 is a must, as the destroyed model referenced herein uses the C-47A destroyed model. If you do NOT have SF2I Exp1, you'll have to find another desetroyed lod to reference.***
 
A re-release of Veltro's G3M "Nell" IJN attack bomber. Inside you'll find...
 
The original skin, overall green/light green-blue unders that I've tentativly identified as the Mihoro Naval Air Corps (later redesignated 701 Kokutai).
A NEW "quick and dirty" one by me, representing Chitose NAC (later 703 Kokutai), with 18 new 'plane-in-group/serial decals. It's also the green/blue-grey.
 
The skins are in jpg format, the orignal decals (17) are resued on the Mihoro/701 skin, and 18 new decal were created for the Chitose/701 skin.Decal Randomization is set to TRUE. All IJAAF/IJN weapons (bombs), including the NA-style semi-experimental 'cruise missle' torpedo. Pilot figures, and a 'new' engine sound from the AvHistory sounds set. Both the Hangar and Loading screens are brand new for this reissue.
 
To reduce the chance of conflicts with any other Nells you may (or may not) have, everthing is refered to by the 'v2k' suffix. So, when in game, you'll see
 
G3M2 Model 22 "Nell" (V2K)
 
on the aircraft selection dropdown menu.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! PLEASE read the "Notes" section for the change list, and other important notations. Also, the Legal Statement has been changed with regards to this aircraft.
For those that still have the original release, it's advised you delete the aircraft and decals folders for them; this pak is desinged to replace them in total.
 
**The aircraft herein are released in "AS IS" Condition. The source files have been lost, and there can and WILL be no modifications to the physical model. It 'are as it is' and you must accept them with this caveat in mind. Any and all issues/problems that cannot be solved via ini edits will exist forever, as new models are unlikely to be created.**

SF2 WW2 ETO Fw-200 Condor Pak
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
**Note: Have a full-5 merged instal is reccomended, as the destroyed model referenced here reaches around to the stock destroyed AN-12. Also, due to modifications to various inis, this mod will probably -NOT- work in 06 level 1stGen game installs. 08 Level 1stGens may have some issues, but this has not/cannot be tested by me.**
 
This is a reissue of Veltro2K's Fw-200 "Condor" Maritime Patrol/Strike bomber. It has been partly reskinned and redecaled (KG.40 skin only) and had some tweeking done. The data ini contains several "SF2NA" only statements for Naval Strike and Naval Search. Be advised, a Full-5 Merged ETO mods folder, built FROM the SF2NA exe is reccomended!!
 
Skins remain in their original bmp format; new code letter decals (26; far more than usual Luftwaffe usage) and several NA-style ini tweeks. Decal randomization is TRUE. The KG.40-1 skin (wavy camo) remains as originall done by ?, and has no code letters. Other skinners are invited to 'fill in the blanks'.
Engine sounds, pilot figures, BRAND new Hangar and Loading screens (in SF2 jpg format) are included. Bombs are not; you should have them already. Operational service dates are rounded to 'whole years'.

SF2 WW2 ETO Westland Whirlwind Mk.1 Pak
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
 
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
This pak contains a reissue of Veltro2K's WW2 Royal Air Force fighter/bomber aircraft. These are the complete aircraft, with various/sundry changes. Remember, this is the WW2 fighter, NOT the helicopter!!!
 
This pak contains the original 3 skins representing...
 
263 Squadron, in early 1940 camo (dark earth/green)
263 Squadron, in 1941-ish camo (medium sea grey/green)
137 Squadron, (also in the MSG/Gr)
 
The skins remain in their original bmp format. All new decals have been created for Squadron Codes, plane-in-group letters, and serial numbers. Serial numbers should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they represent no particular squadron affiliation, but ARE correct for the Whirly. Decal randomization is set to TRUE.
The late RAF MSG/Gr camo skins use the "DefaultStartDate" switch to activiate in Nov, 1941. Operational Service Dates are rounded to the closest whole month.
All new Hangar and Loading screens, in jpg format, are included, as are new damage textures in DDS format.
New engine sound, pilot figure and the drop tanks are also included. Guns and Bombs are not; they're the standard "RAF" bombs, that you should already have. The canopy operates via the Standard Animation Keystroke ™, Shift/0.
The flight model is (slightly) more SF2-compliant than the original, but as always NEEDS further work by 'those with the know-how'.

NOTICES :
 
This mod is NOT released under the Combat Ace Freeware Licensing Agreement (http://combatace.com/topic/55729-freeware-licensing/) as it includes content NOT subjected to it.
 
The only content you can reuse freely following the CA Freeware Licensing are the SKINS and DECALS as they are my creation based on freely released template or from scratch;
For all the rest you MUST contact the original author beforehand.
 
----------------------------------
 
PREREQUISITES :
 
To my knowledge you only need SF2:E, however you might also need the Exp2, if you have finflashes not showing, just tell me and I'll include mine rather than using TW's.
 
 
This should work without trouble with NATO Fighters 5 (however the versions already included in NF5 have a slightly different file organization and naming convention).
 
This mod should not rewrite anything except itself and the relevant campaign files.
 
----------------------------------
 
GLOBAL NOTES :
 
All planes marked with a * in the numbers list are considered historically correct, all others are as correct as sources allow, at worst they come from the pool of planes available to the nation in the given timeframe and bear possibly existing squadron numbers.
 
There's a topic on CA (http://combatace.com/topic/68436-rf-84f-thunderflash-request-for-information-and-superpack-wip/) tracking my progress and meant to receive any feedback and information you might want to share.
 
----------------------------------
 
NOTES FOR 1956 :
 
The Suez and Norwegian skins are bonuses and not useful for a Europe '56 campaign.
 
I initially planned of including slightly anachronistic camouflage versions for Belgium and Netherlands, however, given the time needed for the operation and the fact that the campaign takes place in the heart of winter, camouflage would have made no sense.
 
If you feel the need to properly install the Squadrons, you should add the following to your SQUADRONLIST.INI (if they squadrons are not already there), but everything is set up to work without it.

FRANCE, SUEZ
 
All serial numbers involved in Suez are correct, 8 squadron numbers are attributed to the proper plane, 3 were used at Akrotiri but randomly assigned, the rest are randomly chosen from the most probable squadron numbers at the time.
 
FRANCE
 
French RF-84F in late 1956 would have been stationned at Cognac, but would probably have been detached in Alsace or Germany in case of conflict, one squadron relieving the previous, given the involvement in Operation 700 and the readiness of the squadrons in late 1956, the order of detachement would have been ER 2/33 first then ER 3/33 and finally ER 1/33 (remember, the last planes reached France from Cyprus in late December, and the last ground personnel and equipment in early January 1957, so even accounting for a rushed move, the attrition of planes and personnel would mean they'd probably take no part in the conflict unless it lasted into the Spring of 1957).
 
US
 
3 or 4 stripes of different colors denote a plane assigned to the Wing Commander, 2 stripes or the same color to the Squadron Leader and 1 stripe to a Flight Leader.
 
----------------------------------
 
OPTIONAL ASSEMBLY REQUIRED :
 
These planes are meant to use specific pilots however this is strictly optional, if you don't add them, the game will use the default pilot, so it's only a matter of adding more pilot variety and a more authentic feel to things.
To respect the LOD author's wish not to have a situation where his work might be unknowingly used without proper attribution or worse you'll have to download the pilots separately or as part of the packs in which they are bundled.
 
All are based on Old Diego's pilot, with skins by Corktip14 for the French version, ravenclaw_007 for the German ones.
 
For USAF and ROCAF planes, you'll need the KUSAF01 pilot from Diego's pilot pack : http://combatace.com/files/file/9197-diegos-pilot-pack/
For French planes, you'll need the Guen312 pilot from the Israel 48/56 mod : http://combatace.com/files/file/11024-1948-war-for-independence1956-suez-crisis/
For German planes, you'll need the PilotGAF pilot from the German Pilots pack : http://combatace.com/files/file/9210-german-air-force-pilot%C2%B4s/
For other planes, you'll need the Euro001 pilot included with NATO Fighters 4+ Update 1 : http://combatace.com/files/file/11099-nato-fighters-4-patch-post-dec-2009-patch-level/
 
----------------------------------
 
UPDATING YOUR FORMOSA FREEDOM CAMPAIGN v1.1
 
The necessary campaign files have been modified to add the Taiwanese RF-84F, just overwrite the original files.
 
Due to JonathanRL's way of implementing squadrons (without a proper squadron list) I've had to use a specific variant for Taiwan rather than use it as a skin for the US variant, as should be.
It also means that unless you add the squadrons properly, the ROCAF 4th CRS will appear show up as a USAF unit (without impact on anything else than text displayed on the loadout screen).
It was the best compromise to be both working with Formosa Freedom and still be compatible with the standard implementation.
 
At the moment I'm not interested in providing a package solely for that purpose.
 
----------------------------------
 
UPDATING YOUR 1956 SUEZ CRISIS CAMPAIGN v2.1
 
The necessary campaign files have been modified to use the updated RF-84F, just overwrite the original files.
 
Be aware that it will leave the RF-84F using my old naming convention in place, it's up to you to delete it if it creates confusion in single mission play.
 
At the moment I'm not interested in providing a package solely for that purpose.

1 Silver skin for 303rd TRS (USAFE), 17 planes, circa late 1956, Spangdahlem, DE
 
----------------------------------
 
KNOWN ISSUES :
 
- The spoilers are not part of the model and are only painted on.
- The brake chute fairing is there even on early models.
- Some skins are not "right" due to subtle mapping problems and a model not 100% accurate.
- Some parts inherit the global skin lighting values instead of having these set to fixed values.
- There may be some decal bleeding on lower visual settings as in some cases I only leave a 1 pixel margin.
 
----------------------------------
 
WHAT'S TO COME :
 
- Some more panel changes and details
- Normal and specular maps, maybe, when/if Florian has the time and motivation to do so
- 15th TRS and 45th TRS PACAF planes
- 1962 and 1968 European planes
- Greek, Turkish and Italian planes
- 1955, 1957 variants for USAFE, various others (French early camo trials, Luftwaffe WS50...)
- Templates and full documentation
- NF5 updates
- Version specific hangars and loading screens
- Integration of feedback

SF2 WW2 ETO Bf-109E-7 Jabo by RussoUK
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*This mod may =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs at any patch level, due to the excessive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment. Those that wish to try, do so at their own risk.*
 
This is a complete aircraft with (just) about all the fixings...
 
This mod represents Bf-109E-7s in the West (France based) during the 1940-41 time frame. The skin/decals are "representative" of 6(S)LG2 Jabo. The skin is in jpg format, and decal randomization is TRUE. Unlike most Luftwaffe JGs, the ground attack units (Schlachtgruppen) used letters instead of numbers. You have 18 letters.
 
Included are Sounds, weapons, in this case the AB-50 Frag/Cluster unit (minus standard LW bombs -which you should already have, along with the Guns), the ETC50 4-bomb MER, the drop tank and pilot figure, as well as new SF2 style hangar and loading screens (in jpg format)
The canopy operates on the standard animation keystroke ™ Shift/0.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. Full credits are listed below the Notes.
 
Happy Hunting!

Weapons are included (the JASDF EO bomb and drop tanks); most of the others reference Stock Items.Decal randomization is TRUE. Skins for both are in jpg format.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Also, give the "Note" section a read, in particular, as the Legal Statement has been changed with regards to these aircraft.
 
**These aircraft herein are released in "AS IS" Condition. Any and all issues/problems that cannot be solved via ini edits will exist forever, as new models are unlikely to be created**.
 
Happy Landings!

(I thought I'd re-uploaded earlier this year, but found I'd never finished assembling the pak! Enjoy!)

SF2 WW2 Hawker Hurricane IIC (ETO), by Raven
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*There is a distinct possibility that this mod will work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs.
However, due to some of the modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment (read: data
ini/cockpit tweeks, destroyed model, flare effects, decal randomization, etc), all the features
will =NOT= be working as designed.*
 
Some modificationa, tweeks, reskins and so forth for Raven's excellent Hurricane Mk.IIC, create
an SF2-ish version. (although it needed very little work!!). This mod represents ETO based
Mk.IIcs as used in the "Night Intruder" role for attacks on The Continent. Most other Mission
Tasking remains.
 
Note: this is a COMPLETE aircraft mod, with all the bits and bobs included. Originially, I'd
planned ONLY for a smaller package with just the inis, skins and such, but chose to do a full
release. If you already have the IIC in your ETO mods folder, it's suggested that you either
delete it or rename the folder so the Game Engine don't see it.
 
1 new skin, and a slight revamp of the originial, from Raven's template, and bunches of new
decals. Included are skins for:
 
No. 87 Squadron "United Provinces" (Temperate Day/Night Unders -folder still called "Night")
No. 247 Squadron "China-British" (Overall Night)
 
As seen post-1941ish.
Each skin has the squadron crest as the paint chip, as seen on the Loadout Screen. All new
Squadron Codes, Plane-in-Group Letters and serial numbers were created. Decal randomization is
TRUE.
Cockpit mods replace the gunsight, and the loadout has been slightly adjusted. The CM flares
have been replaced by the KAW Parachute Illuminator flares (ie: pod) for night target
location/marking.
Weapons include the aforementions flare, their Effects, and the drop tank, converted to SF2
weapons format. Guns and bombs are NOT included; these you should have already.
The engine now uses the AvHistory Merlin sound.
The skins remain in their bmp format.
A new SF2 version of the original "photograph" hangar screen is included.
 
When 'in game', you'll see "Hurricane Mk.IIC (Raven)" on the drop down menu. This will
differentiate it from any other Hurri IICs you may (or may not) have.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please
=READ= them =BEFORE= installing this mod!!!. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. It
contains the Change List.
 
With Thanks To Raven for this bird,
 
Happy Hunting!

SF2 WW2 Hawker Hurricane IIB (ETO), by Raven

Some modificationa, tweeks, reskins and so forth for Raven's excellent Hurricane Mk.IIB (12 gun variant), create an SF2-ish version. (although it needed very little work!!). This mod represents ETO based Mk.IIBs. I'm treating this mark as the "Hurri-bomber" (sorta!).
 
Note: this is a COMPLETE aircraft mod, with all the bits and bobs included. Originially, I'd planned ONLY for a smaller package with just the inis, skins and such, but chose to do a full release (because I'm lazy). If you already have the IIB in your ETO mods folder, it's suggested that you either delete it or rename the folder so the Game Engine don't see it. Overall, the changes are fairly small.
 
1 new skin, and a slight revamp of the originial, from Raven's template, and bunches of new decals. Included are skins for:
 
No. 175 Squadron (original skin)
No. 174 Squadron "Mauritius" (new skin)
 
As seen post-1941ish.
Each skin has the squadron crest as the paint chip, as seen on the Loadout Screen. All new Squadron Codes, Plane-in-Group Letters and serial numbers were created. Decal randomization is TRUE.
Both use a "pool" of serial number and plane-in-group letter decals. Serials, while correct for this mark, represent no particular squadron usage, and should be considered 'generic' in nature.
Cockpit mods replace the gunsight, and the loadout has been slightly adjusted.
Weapons included are just the drop tank, converted to SF2 weapons format. Guns and bombs are NOT included; these you should have already.
The engine now uses the AvHistory Merlin sound (included). Canopy opens with the Standard Animation Keystroke ™, Shift/0.
The skins remain in their bmp format.
A new SF2 "photograph" style hangar screen is included.
 
When 'in game', you'll see "Hurricane Mk.IIB (Raven)" on the drop down menu. This will differentiate it from any other Hurri IIBs you may (or may not) have.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please =READ= them =BEFORE= installing this mod!!!. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. It contains the Change List.

SF2 WW2 ETO Boulton Paul Defiant Remod Pak
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
This is a reissue of Veltro2K's Defiant 'turret fighter'. It has been reskinned/redecaled and had some tweeking done.
The skin is in jpg format, and has all new plane-in-group letter and serial numbers (historically acurate for Defiant Mk.1s, but representative of no particular unit). The squadron code represent No. 264 Squadron. There are some issues with this skin, as I couldn't quite figure out the mapping at the rear fuselage camo/sky unders parting line. To that end, the Home Grown ™ template is included for any another skinners wishing to give it a try.
Engine sounds, pilot figures, BRAND new Hangar and Loading screens (in SF2 jpg format) are included.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! PLEASE read the "Notes" section for the change list, and other important notations. Also, the Legal Statement has been changed with regards to this aircraft.
For those that still have the original releases, you may wish delete the aircraft and decals folders for them; this pak is desinged to replace them in total.
 
**These aircraft herein are released in "AS IS" Condition. The source files have been lost, and there can and WILL be no modifications to the physical model. They 'are as they is' and you must accept them with this caveat in mind. Any and all issues/problems that cannot be solved via ini edits will exist forever, as new models are unlikely to be created**
 
Good Luck!!
