P-51D Mustang - 5th Air Force
 
Here you have a collection of generic skins representing the 5th Air Force Fighter Groups North American P-51D/K Mustang during WWII.
 
They are NOT 100% accurate and definitely NOT perfect since camouflage and/or markings patterns differed from plane to plane within the same squadron, therefore the term "generic" (constructive criticism will be accepted, however, rivet-counters, nit-pickers and haters in general, well, you can talk amongst yourselves).
 
This time I have decided to split the original pack into the fighter squadrons in the 5th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 14th and 15th Army Air Forces, so definitely expect
more to come!
 
Most serial numbers used are stock ones and others are modified (colored) stock serials.
 
You must have the following for this pack to work:
1. Strike Fighters 2 Expansion Pack 1 installed to get the P-51.
2. WWII Nations.ini
3. WWII Formation.ini
4. WWII weapons pack
 
Also, you'll need to update your squadron list, which is included in each pack.

There is one skin, in the main aircraft folder, and it's in jpg format. All markings are decals The serials are 'generic' in nature, as they represent no particular aircraft within these unit, but ARE for the model variant depicted. Decal randomization is set to TRUE. There are NO nose arts. Other texture artists are encouraged to do the research, and create proper artwork decals. "Battle Numbers" for both squadron are 100% correct.

SF2 WW2 ETO, P-51B Mustang, 336th FS Skin Pak 6/28/14
 
= For SF2, (Full 5 Merged Reccomended/Prefered) =
 
A new skin for ETO based P-51B (square canopy) Mustangs. This is for Wolf's Mustang, not any others. If you don't have the SF2 Uprated version of Wolf's P-51B, you get it at the following URL:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/13737-sf2-ww2-eto-p-51b-mustang-pak/
 
This skin represents aircraft from the 336th Fighter Squadron, 4th Figher Group, in 1944 (before D-Day, or after, assuming the Invasion Stripes are removed).
 
The aircraft is finished standard OD/Grey, with white QIMs
The skin is in jpg format, and is slightly revamped from earlier version, with new panel and rivet lines. All markings (excepting the QIMs and national markings) are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE. Serial numbers are 100% correct, and matched to the 'plane-in-group' letters, excpeting those marked with a star (*). Those aricraft DID serve in the 336, but I was unable to match the serials to any individual letter. There are NO nose arts, excepting Gentile & Godfrey's red checks, and Gentile's "Shangra-La". Others texture/decal artists are encouraged to do the leg/brain work if they wish to create others. Be advised, there may not be enough mesh positions for correct placements.
Also, included is a modified loadout ini, as I'd originally inadvertently assigned the drop tanks to the wrong hardpoints!
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them ....

(this is an expansion of the pack seen previously in the "Decals, How To?" discussion thread in the SF2 Mods/Skinning Forum. If you DID download that pack from the attachement in that thread, you are advised to DELETE the 336 skin and decals folders, as this WILL replace it)

http://combatace.com/files/file/13216-p-51c-mustang-eto/
 
This skin represents aircraft from the 382nd Fighter Squadron, 363rd Figher Group, 9th Air Force, as based in England, and later forward bases on The Continent after D-Day.
The aircraft is finished in 'natural metal', and carriers Invasion Stripes in the approximate time frame of July thru November 1944 (lower surfaces only).
The skin is in jpg format. All markings (excepting the QIM on the fin and tailplanes and Invasion Stripes) are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE. Serial numbers are correct for the model depicted, but NOT for any specific aircraft with this squadron. Consider them 'generic' in nature.
Also, included is a modified Data ini, as I made a few small changes (like attaching the tail light to the rudder, so it moves!)
 
Remember, historically, the only difference between a B and C model (as both could, and did, recieve the Malcom Hood mod), is the B was built in Ingelwood, California and the C in Dallas, Texas.
As both Wolf's B & C Mustang are mapped identically, End Users ™ can use it for either one.

This is a 'generic' USMC skin and decal pack for the TMF/MM F4U-1 "Birdcage" Corsair. The aircraft is finished in the late 1943 "3 Tone Camo", and has the 3 digit aircraft ID numbering.

This skins is in jpg format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. Although 'named' for VMF124 (L for Late), it is designed to represent NO particular USMC squadron. It also used the SF2 'time switch' to "turn on" this skin in October, 1943.
 
A new Data ini is also provided, with changes/tweeks that 'fix' some issues caused by the 5/13 and 7/13 patches. With luck, they won't need messing with again!

This pak contains Skin/Decal mods for the Stock 3rd Wire C-47A, representing RAF Dakota's in WW2, in the India/Burma (SEAC) theatre. None of my research has turned up an information if they were camoflagued, so the aircraft is in standard OD/Grey.
 
Supplied are 26 plane-in group letters and RAF serial number decals. The serials, while correct for the Dakota, represent no particular unit and should be considered 'generic' in nature. There are NO squadron codes.
Decal randomization is TRUE
Also supplied is an updated/edited/adjusted C-47A User list, with many corrected dates.
 
*NOTE: this skin pak is for RAF Daks in SEAC =ONLY=!!! Read: your CBI mods folder.*

**Note: this mod is designed for use =ONLY= in a WW2 CBI-Centric mods folder. In fact,
research seems to indicate this unit (81st FG) operated only over China from mid-1944*
 
New skin and decal set for Wolf257's P-47D-20 Razorback Thunderbolt, recreate the 92st FS,
81st FG as seen in China from mid-1944 thru war's end. Conside this a compaion set for the
91st FS's Razorbacks. The only non-historical bit, is the vertical squadron rudder/fin ID
stripe was solid, not broken so the serial can be seen. In Real Life ™, the serial
numbers may have been painted over by the stripe.
 
The included data ini has several changes (listed below in "Change List") for CBI (and
specificly China) usage ONLY!!!
 
The skin is in jpg format, and decal randomization is TRUE. The serial numbers, while
'generic' in nature, ARE correct for the model variant depicted.
The data ini supplied here in the main aircraft folder, is a theatre-specific data ini,
with the approximated start date/month of P-47 operations in the CBI. I made the assumption
(oh! that word!!) that Bubbletops started appearing within a few months of the Razorbacks.
Which is a different timeframe then the ETO or MTO.
 
Like the recently released mod for the Razorback, some of these changes and additions can
be used for any of Wolf's Bubbletop Jugs for ETO or MTO usage (after removal of the ADF
loop statements, of course!)
 
REMINDER!! Jugs in the PTO (ie: SoWesPac and Central Pacific), did =NOT= use the DF loop;
it is a CBI thing only. Once again, making the point of having a CBI-0nly Mods Folder.

81st FG as seen in China from mid-1944 thru war's end.
 
The included data ini has several changes (listed below in "Change List")
 
The skin is in jpg format, and decal randomization is TRUE. The serial numbers, while
'generic' in nature, ARE correct for the model variant depicted.
 
In the folder "for china usage only", is a theatre-specific data ini, with the approximated
start date/month of P-47 operations in the CBI. You should ONLY use that one. OTH, the
other ini, in the main aircraft folder, can be used for any of Wolf's Jugs for ETO or MTO
usage (after removal of the ADF loop statements, of course!)
 
REMINDER!! Jugs in the PTO (ie: SoWesPac and Central Pacific), did NOT use the DF loop; it
is a CBI thing only. Once again, making the point of having a CBI-only Mods Folder.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE
read them!!
 
Good Hunting!!

SF2 WW2 F-6D (RF-51D) Mustang Skin/Decal Pak 12/05/2013
 
-- Something for the WW2 players --
 
= For SF2 =ONLY=, Full-5 Merged, plus ExPak 1 (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: must have the SF2I Expansion Pak (whichever one gave us the Mustang) in your Merged Installs, due to this aircraft referencing the Stock 3rd Wire Mustang serial number decals*
 
A simple reskin for the KAW Era RF-51D, creates a "Plane Jane" F6D Mustang for WW2 usage. The aircrat has no squadron or other type of markings. This makes it usable in any theatre. However, it should be noted, SOME units did have their own markings. Consider THIS skin for exactly what it is: Generic ™
 
To be used on the KAW RF-51D; the aircraft is available at the following URL:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/13518-sf2-kaw-rf-51d-mustang/
 
Like the original, it uses DDS textues, and will NOT work in any 1stGen game installs at all.
This skin uses the "StartDefaultDate=" statement, so as to start in 1944 (aircraft's default in service year).
National markings are painted on; decal randomization (for the serials) is TRUE
 
When in game, you'll see:
 
"Natural Metal (WW2)
 
on the skin selection drop down menu.
 
REMINDER: you MUST have the RF-51D installed BEFORE installing this skinpak. See "To Insall" for more details
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!

SF2 WW2 CBI P-40K-5 Skin & Tweeks Pak 11/14/2013
 
-- Something for the WW2 PTO players --
 
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: this pak MAY be usable in 1stGen SF/Wo* game installs. However, some features
(decal randomization) will =NOT= be functional. Use in 1stGens has not, and cannot be,
tested by me.*
 
**Note x2: this mod is designed for use =ONLY= in a WW2 CBI-Centric mods folder. Some
Theatre specific changes have been effected, and should =ONLY= be used in the CBI!!!**
 
This is =NOT= the full aircraft; you'll be adding all this stuff to the original.
Some mods, tweeks, and 2 new skin/decal sets for Raven's P-40K-5-CU Warhawk, is seen in
China durning WW2.
 
Included are 2 skins for the 23rd FG, aka "Flying Tigers"
 
74th Fighter Squadron, in late 42 (star-and-ball)
 
75th Fighter Squadron, in late 43 (star-and-bar)
 
The squadron patch (ww2 versions!) will be seen as the paint chip for each skin on the
Loadout screen.
Skins remain in their bmp format.
New DDS damage textures (usable on all Raven's Warhawk/Kittyhawk in SF2 only) are
included!
Several new inis are included;

Data
Loadout
Userlist
 
The data ini makes use of my "kit-bashed" FM, that while (semi) SF2-compliant, still
needs fine tuning by an Expert. At least now, it won't mush into the ground and explode.
You are advised to back up your original inis, and full instructions are in the "To
Install" section.
The DF Loop antenna has been added via the 'fake pilot' method
Canopy Opens/Closes via the Standard Animation Keystroke ™, Shift/0.
 
All markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. There are no nose arts. Also,
via the use of my (patent pending) fake SqTail decal, the squadron name display is now
active on the Loadout Screen (74th only).
 
No weapons are included, except SF2 Versions of the new bombs (for those that haven't
converted them yet).
New SF-2 compliant "Box Art" style Hangar and Loading screens are included, too.
 
The skins have been run through the template (thank you Raven for that!), and have had a
layer of dirt and 'clouds' added for weathering.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE
read them!!
