This file fixes the runway center line issue in SF-2 Desert. I think the same textures are used in the other titles as well but your on your own. The runway edge lines still have issues but they aren't as obvious as the center line so I left them alone.

This is simple re-texture of trees found in Baltika's fabulous full-scale Iceland terrain.
New texture is 4x higher resolution and better matches the underlying forestal tiles, thus looks better.
 
(old trees texture used, also by me, is some hundred years old and fugly!)
 
 
 
To install simply unzip to your Iceland terrain folder, overwrite file.
 
Enjoy

SF2/SF1: New textures of Desert Storm terrain (desert and farm).

This is set of satellite based 1024x1024 tiles created for India/Pakistan terrain by Deuces and Wrench
 
Best to be used in dedicated India/Pakistan (AKA "Wings Over India") stand alone mod, but can be added to any install that has India/Pakistan map added into it.
This pack assumes you do have installed and tested (flown over at least once) "Indiapak" map.
 
Right now TODs and their placement is as they were for original terrain release, but they do work quite well.
Also given the scope of the terrain portrayed and it's physical diversity I had to make some compromises.

Texas/Mexico tileset
for ASW terrain by Wrench, The
 
(should work with any maps created using stock "Desert.cat" tileset, series1 backward compatible format)
 
This is set of 1024x1024 tiles created for Wrench's Texas/Occupied Mexico terrain (known as ASW -America South West)
 
Right now being sort of fully functioning beta, it does not include dedicated/borrowed tod files ("treemod") due to my lack of time
 
 

This is re-release of my tileset for Gepard's Formosa Strait/Taiwanhaxia map.
 
These are the original "lost and found" tiles I created in 2010 for Taiwan and released previously in downscaled 512 version.
 
Included are two seasons, all the .tods (trees, buildings; both in small and big versions), necessary inis and other bits and pieces from the original release, slightly tweaked here and there. Oh, slightly different trees graphics too.
 
You can install this either into clean version of Gepard's terrain, or into your existing already modded Formosa
(that is with the !RECOMMENDED! Wrench's fixes and tweaks, my previous tileset/treemod)
 
 
 

Ground Effects Collection
---------------------------------
 
Just a few sample noise textures from the hordes I have collected & been experimenting with.
 
They replace the stock noisenormal.bmp that create an impressive feeling of substance, texture & speed at low level.
Enhancing already detailed terrains & giving new life to older low rez tiles. :-)
 
Installation:
---------------
 
Select a NOISENORMAL.bmp from on of the numbered folders & place it in the specific terrain folder that you intend to use it for.
 
E.G.: \Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2\Terrains\Desert
 
Notes:
--------
 
Terrain texture needs to be set to High or Unlimited to see the effects!!!!
 
Best results are when that sun is at a lower angle, at noon the ground effect is not as visible!!!!
 
Some noise textures work better than others on some terrains! You'll have to experiment with what works best with your particular tile set.
 
As a guide this is what I use but you may find others more suitable.
 
Desert: NOISENORMAL - 2
Grass or foliage: NOISENORMAL - 7
General: NOISENORMAL -3
 
 
Problems/bugs:
------------------
 
All texturs have been tested in SF2 fully mereged. (BuildDate=Aug 2011)
I have noticed no adverse effects on my system & game settings!
 
However....
 
Some users could experience slight haze or shimmering depending on there system, game & graphics card settings.
 
My FPS seems unaffected but some users could experience a slight FPS drop.
 
 
Credits:
---------
 
These textures have been made’ free to use’ & have been collected from a variety of locations on the net.
All credit goes to their original creators & only minor changes have been done by me.
 
 
 
Enjoy
