SF2 WW2 F4F-3/4 Wildcat, SBD-3/5 Dauntless
 
-- Something for the PTO players --
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*There is a possibility that this mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, due to the
excessive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment.*
 
This is a compilation of all my work for Wolf's SBD Dauntless and Pasko's F4F Wildcat. It is
designed to replace ALL the previously released versions. So, be advised.
There are 5 aircraft in this pak:
 
F4F-3 (pre- and early war)
F4F-4 (early war to mid-43
FM-2 (mid to late war -this is a stand in aircraft, based on the -4)
SBD-3 (pre and early war, to mid-43 -includes RNZAF skin)
SBD-5 (mid war, tri-color)
and ???? a surprise!
 
All have semi-compliant SF2 Flight Models, but they REALLLLLLY do need further fine tuning by
experts. All lighting on all aircraft is 100% historically correct. All are carrier capable, with
the SF2NA statments for those (ok, 2) aircraft with folding wings
Use Shift/0 to open the window, and Shift/9 to fold the wings -Wilcat ONLY!
 
All skins are in jpg format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. I've tried, as best as
possible, to use the 'StartDefaultDate' on all skins to limit the availability for pre-War markings
from those that came into being post-January, 1942. The -4 'cats have skins that start 1/42, and
the Dauntless has the same pre and post 1/42 starts. Hopefully, they will work as they should.
Userlists are included for all aircraft, as being 'exported' means USN, USMC, and in the SBD-3's
case, RNZAF.SF2 versions of the old 'box art' Hangars are included for those that had them.
Sounds, weapons are included. Also, for you enjoyment, a never-before-released-to-the-public
"Surprise" aircraft. Yes, its a total stand-in, and dosen't really even look like what it
represents, but ... you can have to fun with it (flying for the Red Side, that is, attacking it.)
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please
read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
All readmes from the original releases, and re-releases, are included where discoverable from the
archives.
 
Happy Hunting!

Lockheed P-38J, 20th FG, 8th AF, ETO
 
= For SF2, Any and All (Full-5 Merged Prefered/Reccomended) =
- Something for the European Theatre
 
*Note: due to certain changes in the data ini, it may NOT be usable in any 1stGen game install at any patch level. End Users ™ who choose to do so can expect no support if/when issues arise.*
 
This pack is a revamp of the 1stGen (SF/Wo*) WW2 ETO 20th FG pak originally released in 2009. It now incorporates the changes seen on the Recently Released PTO P-38 Pak. This is the complete aircraft, with all the "little fiddly bits" included.
 
The 3 squadrons of the Group represented are:
55th FS
77th FS (both in OD/Grey)
79th FS (in Natural Metal)
 
All skins are in jpg format. Included are sounds, pilot figue, and weapons (excepting the standard WW2 AN series bombs, readly available all over the place!). Decal randomization is set to TRUE. The Squadron Name display on the Loadout Screen has been activated via my "fake" SqTail decal, so their modern names will show.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. Please READ them! The original readme from my SF/Wo* release is included, as it contains further explainations and historical notations. Wolf's original release readme is also included
 
Happy Landings!

P-51C Mustang, ETO by Wolf257
 
= For SF2, Any and All* =
 
*Note: reccomended to have at least SF2 Expansion Pak 1, and be at the latest patch level, as the decals referenced on the Generic NM skin call to several stock 3W decals. If not at that level, you'll have to find alternative serial numbers and period-correct USAAF national insignia decals to use*
 
Some slight modifications and tweeks to Wolf's P-51C "Malcolm Hood" USAAF Mustang bring it closer in line for SF2 usage.
 
Included are 3 skins:
 
356th FS, with 99.9% hisorically accurate codes, serials and nose arts
'Generic' Olive Drab
'Generic' Natural Metal.
 
All skins are in jpg format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE.
2 Data inis are suppliled; one is the original from way back when, and the one being used now has some of the SF2 statements. It's not perfect; it seems works well enough, but does need further adjustments and fine-tuning by an expert.
A new SF2 version of the original 'box art' Hangar screen is included, as are the needed weapons (ie: the drop tank), sounds and the pilot figure.

Mustang III, Royal Air Force, MTO by Wolf257
 
= For SF2, Any and All =
 
*Specifically designed for a SF2, MTO-Centric based mods folder*
 
This is a modifcation of Wolf257's P-51B Mustang into the earlier Mk.III version (non Malcom Hood), as used the RAF in the MTO (and elsewhere, too!)
 
This pak, a complete aircraft with all the trimmings, represents aircraft from 112 Squadron 'Sharkmouths', circa 1944/45.
All skins are in jpg format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE.
 
A new SF2-compliant Hangar screen is included, as are the needed weapons (ie: the drop tank), sounds and the pilot figure.
FM is similiar to the recently (re)release USAAF P-51C (ok, it's really the same one, nationalized)
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them.
Wolf's original (P-51B) release readme, and my RAF Mustang III readme are included for historical purposes

SF2 WW2 CBI Mustangs
 
-- Something for the CBI players --
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*There is a possibility that this mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, due to the excessive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment.*
 
**Notex2: These aircraft should ONLY be used in a seperate CBI-centric mods folder to prevent them from showing up where, historically, they shouldn't. The Aircraft/GroundObject sets for CBI are substantially different from Central or SouthWest Pacific areas. You'll need the Burma and China WW2 terrains from the 1stGen Terrains Downloads. Be advised, that even though I reworked both terrains some years ago, they need yet another going over to correct many faults; but they ARE perfecly playable as is, with the needed SF2 terrain conversion tweeks that is :)**
 
This pack contains 3 aircraft, by or modded from those build by Wolf257, for use in the China-Burma-India Theatre by the USAAF. They are:
 
A-36 Apache
P-51A Mustang
P-51B Mustang
 
All aircraft are from the 311th FBG, and represent the various squadrons. These are the ONLY early model Mustangs to see service in the Pacifc Theatre (well, ok, actually CBI!), and no where else. The D model's didn't start to make their appearences until US Forces landed in the Phillipines. Hence, again, the need for a seperate CBI-centric install.
 
New (semi)compliant SF2 FMs were cobbled together. As has become expected, the FM is NOT perfect, and needs further fine-tuning by Experts. New hangar screens, theatre specific weapons (except the WW2 bombs -you should have them already), a pilot figure and engine sounds are included. All skins are in jpg format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. As is usual, all lighting is 100% historically correct. Remember, too, the A-36 and P-51A are the Allison engined versions, and therefore not as 'quick' as the Merlin powered models.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. All original readmes are included for historical purposes (when discoveralbe from the archives)

SF2 KAW RF-51D Mustang
 
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: as these aircraft were built with the latest 3W exporter, and due to the skin format, they will most likely =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen Installs*
 
This is the recon variant of the Mustang, the RF-51D. Like all other Mustangs, it is fully capable of most other operational Missions (CAS,STRIKE,Armed_Recon, but not auntie-ship or Air-To-Air). The primairy use was the photo-recon role; all other ground-attack roles are secondary.
 
This skin represents aircraft from the 45th TRS "Polka Dots" during the late 1940s and 50s, with special focus on the Korean War.
The skin is in DDS format, and decal randomization is set to TURE. 18 new serial and BuzzNumber decals are supplied.
 
No weapons are included excepting the drop tank data; all others can be found in the GunnyPak or the KAW Weapons Pak, both available at here at CA. The pilot figure and engine sounds are included, as in an SF2-style hangar screen.
The Standard Keystrokes ™ operate the canopy (Shift/0)

SF2 RAF WW2 ETO Mustang Pak
 
= For SF2, Any and All (Full-5 Merged Prefered/Reccomended) =
- Something for the European Theatre -
 
*Note: due to certain changes in the data ini, it may NOT be usable in any 1stGen game install at any patch level. End Users ™ who choose to do so can expect no support if/when issues arise. Also, for those unwilling to patch SF2 to the latest level, the jpg skins may cause visual issues.*
 
This pack is a revamp of the 1stGen (SF/Wo*) WW2 ETO RAF Mustangs originally released in 2007, now bundled into a single package. It now incorporates the changes seen on the Recently Released PTO Mustangs Pak. This is the complete aircraft, with all the "little fiddly bits" included.
 
There are 3 complete aircraft in this pak:
 
Mustang 1, 26 Squadron
Mustang 1A, 170 Squadron
Mustang III (Malcom Hood), 315 Squadron "City of Deblin", Polish
 
All skins are in jpg format. Decal randomization is TRUE. Included are sounds, pilot figure, and weapons. The Squadron Name display on the Loadout Screen has been activated via my "fake" SqTail decal, so their modern names will show (if listed in the stock SquadronList.ini, which 170 & 315 are not).
A (semi)compliant SF2 level FM has been cobbled together, and while not 100% perfect, flys exeeding nicely! Basiclly, the same one as used on the CBI USAAF Mustangs.
The 'box art' style hanger screens have been updated to fit SF2 styling; they and any loading screens are also in jpg format.
A Userlist.ini was NOT created, as these are 'nationalized' aircraft, non-exported, with a single user.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. Please READ them! The original readmes from the SF/Wo* releases are included, as it contains further explainations and historical notations. Wolf's original release readme is also included.
