SF2 WW2 SB2C Helldiver, "Blank" Skin Pak 9/12/2013
 
- For SF2 WW2 and Whenever Players -
 
This pak contains a set of 3 "blank" markingless skins for Veltro2K's Helldivers. They are:
 
SB2C-1:
 
Standard 3-tone
(note: the -1 uses a different -s map due to the 3 bladded prop)
 
SB2C3 thru 5:
 
Standard 3-tone
Overall Dark Gloss Navy Blue
 
(The enclosed screenshot is a -5 in 3-tone. All others are identical to those already available, but minus the US Star-bar)
 
As stated, there are NO national or squadron markings (ie: for USN use) of any kind. This will allow skinners (and WhatIfers) to create/recrate the various squadron and national markings via decal placement. With the several skins out already, decal placement locations have pretty much all been pre-plotted. A decent skinner should easily be able to figure out any others.
 
As always, fairly simple install instructions are included. So, please read them.
 
REMINDER: these are skin maps ONLY!!! YOU will have to build the other required inis and decals.
 
Happy Skinning!

SF2 WW2 SB2C-1 Helldiver Tweeks Pak
 
-- Something for the PTO players --
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
Some tweeks, and a new skin for Veltro2K's recently released Curtiss SB2C-1 "Helldiver" WW2 USN dive bomber. It is to be applied to the aircraft package available at the following url:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/13772-curtiss-sb2c-1-helldiver/
 
This pak contains a brand new 3-tone camo skin and 'generic' modex number decal set. The skin iteself can be also considered generic, as all units, when the Helldiver first entered service, were painted in the 3-tone. Some, including -3 & -4 models, carried it until VJ-Day. However, after late 43/early 44, the "G" system of Air Group marking came into being. This pak does NOT contain any G-system markings. They can easily be added via decals ini tweeking. And probably will be, as time permits :) .
 
Included are Tweeked Data, loadout, and main inis as well as Sounds; weapons are NOT included. (excepting the drop tank). A brand NEW SF2-stye 'flight deck' hangar screen is.
The skin is in jpg format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. It contains the Change List.
 
Good Hunting!

SF2_IDF_V2K_B-17s
= Tested in  Full-5 Merged installation
This project started as a personal customization to have the Israeli skins for Veltro 2K B-17F/G.
In 1948 the IDF/AF found four  B-17G in a dump in Florida and bought them.The planes were in very poor conditions, stripped of the turrets and instruments.Three were made airworty and flew via Azores to Czechoslovakia, there received additional and better instruments ( some war-time Luftwaffe gunsights,ecc...) and loaded with bomb.On their way to Israel, one bombed Cairo and the other two Egyptian positions in Sinai.
The fate of the fourth bomber was less succesful, because the raids of the first three on Egypt prompted a FBI investigation and , cut a long story short, the plane was seized by authority in the Azores, as the crew involved choose to rest after the trip instead of refuel the bird and take off as soon possible.
The bombers were assigned to the 69 Squadron The Hammers at Hatzor and given serial number 1601,1602 and 1603, and by the end of the War of Indepenence the B-17s had flown over 200 missions.
At the time of the Suez crisis the Fortresses were out of service but two were brought back in action with changed two-digit serial numbers and incomplete camouflage ( only brown instead of the standard  brown-blue over silk grey).
During their operational use the planes were painted in different way, comprised NMF and with various artwork applied, but this wasn't my focus.
==========
To Install:
As always raccomended,all in the relative folders in your game(s)

-----------------------------
Credits:
Veltro 2K for the models
Me for the decals and the skins

------------
Know issue:
This modest pack contain both the F and G model despite Israel bought only G model. My choice was dictated by the fact that during the War of Independence the planes were armed only woth the waist and tail guns in a indigenous modification, the rear bulkhead of the tail position conmpletely removed and equipped with twin .03 inch machineguns. For these reason I opted for the B-17F in my mod
By the time of the Suez action ( in reality even before) the complete armament was restored, here my choice for the B-17G.
In 1956 the s/N 23 had the chin turret replaced by a search radar for maritime patrol, but I'm absolutely unable to modify the models as I'm not a modder, so you will be fly with the gun turret in his place.
I choose to add the fourth plane ,just to have one more, despite never arrived in Israel.

Here you have a collection of generic skins representing various squadrons that operated the North American P-51D/K Mustang during WWII.
They are NOT 100% accurate and definitely NOT perfect since camoflage 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).
The idea being to give you the chance to fly your favorite Mustang squadron and rack-up your own kills, and for that porpuse I've also included a set of "kill"
markings for both japanese and german kills.
Initially it was going to be a more accurate list but due to an increased work load I no longer have the time to go thru the process of creating and matching serials
and individual markings to each aircraft.
Some of the squadrons make use of the stock Mustang serial numbers and other stock numbers modified by me.
Also, for the Mustang Mk. IV camo I've used the stock israeli camo while I work on a correct one for the British ponies.
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.
 
The squadron list goes as follows:
Europe 1944 - 1945
P-51D Mustang
4th FG
- 336th FS
31st FG
- 308th FS
55th FG
- 338th FS

TW RF-51D for Korean War
 
This are a skin and aircraft files to create a RF-51D using the TW P-51D.
 
You must have the P-51D from the Strike Fighters 2 Expansion Pack 1 for this mod to work.
 
(If you don't have the TW P-51D and want a RF-51D for your SF2 Korean War install, there's a great one by FastCargo/Wrench in the downloads section.)
 
The cameras are 2D and are painted on the skin. The skin texture files are in .jpg format at 1024 x 1024 pixels.
 
Thanks and credit go to:
Third Wire - for the P-51D model.
Wrench - for the decals and RF-51D original skin I modified.
Me - for creating/painting on the 2D camera's; modifiying Wrench's skin to this plane.
? - I'm not sure who created the 108 gallon drop tanks. They've been around for many years. Thanks to the unknown creator. (Consensus is the F-51D used the 108 gallon drop tanks more than the WWII 75 gallon tanks.)
 

If I forget or miss anyone who deserves credit for anything I release, I apologize. I have no intent to abuse or misuse anyone's work or property or claim it as my own. Please contact me to correct any error.
 
INSTALLATION: Unzip to a folder/place of your choice. Copy, Move, Drag-n-Drop or do whatever you wish to get the folders into their corresponding folders in your SF2 Korea install. Fly.

Vought F4U-1 "Birdcage" Corsair Generic USMC Skin Pak (TMF/MM) 7/27/2013
 
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
= For WW2 PTO Usage ONLY on the TMF/MM Birdcage Corsair!!! =
 
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. These numbers represent the last 3 digits of the BuNum, and was the fairly standard way land base USMC squadrons used on their aircraft. The aircraft carries the standard late 43 blue Star-and-Bar.
 
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!
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!!
 
Good Hunting!
