Here is a great looking Sea Gladiator built by Geezer and set up for StrikeFighters2. The default installation is for MTO but also included are a few additional files that can be added for ETO use.
 
The installation is quite straight forward but make sure you READ the included README to understand the sound file installation. It's a small but additional hoop to jump through.

SF2 WW2 RAF Bombers Pak
 
= For SF2 (Full4/5 Merged RECCOMENDED! w/Expansion Pak 1)
 
**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 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)
 
-Handley Page Hampden
49 Squadron (RAF)
 
-Lockheed Hudson
224 Squadron (raf1)
48 Squadron, Coastal Command (CC)
459 Squadron, RAAF (MTO -desert camo)
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*
See "Changes" in the Notes section for more details.
 
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 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**

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.

Short Stirling MK1
 
The Short Stirling was the first four-engined British heavy bomber of the Second World War. The Stirling was designed and built by Short Brothers to an Air Ministry specification from 1936, and entered service in 1941. The Stirling had a relatively brief operational career as a bomber, being relegated to second line duties from 1943 onwards when other four-engined RAF bombers, specifically the Handley Page Halifax and Avro Lancaster, took over its role, but fulfilled a major role as a glider tug and resupply aircraft during the allied invasion of Europe in 1944-1945.

SF2 WW2 Spitfire Mk.VA by Coupi/Mod Mafia/TMF            5/10/2018
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
*Note: 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. End Users (tm) that attempt to do so, do so at their own risk.*
This is a modification of the TMF Spitfire MK.1A to the early VA version; this mark uses the "A" wing with 8 303 caliber machine guns.
This is the Vickers/Supermarine Spitfire Mk.VA. This pak contains skins/decal set for the following RAF Squadrons:
No. 92
There are 2 skins; one Dark Earth/Dark Green/Sky (pre-1942) and Medium Sea Gray/Dark Green/light grey for post-1942. The SF2 Date Switch is used to turn on the later skin in November, 1941
All skins are in jpg format, Decal Randomization is TRUE. Serial numbers, while not matched to plane-in-squadron letters, are all correct for Mk.Vs used by 92 Squadron. Those marked with a star (*) fall into the correct sequencing for those aircraft built as the 8-gunned Va version.
The canopy/entry door open with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0. For those RAF Squadron listed in the game's SquadronList.ini, my 'fake sqtail' decal will activate their "Displayed Name" on the LoadoutScreen.
When 'in game', you'll see 
"Spitfire Mk.Va (TMF)" 
on the aircraft drop-down selection window.  The Official Squadron Crest (tm) is used for the 'paint chip' for each skin.
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please READ them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too for futher explinations, clarifactions, illuminations and so forth. 
Good Hunting!

------------------------------------------------
=TO INSTALL:
As I always reccomend, unzip the "sf2_ww2_eto_spit5a_tmf_pak.zip" to a temp folder or your desktop or somewhere else that's easy to find
Then, simply, copy/paste the Objects folder supplied directly =OVER= your existing /Objects folder.
Copy/Paste the Sound folder over your existing /Sounds folder.
Odds are, you have the engine sound already, but I like to upload as complete as possible products
 
You'll probably be asked "OVERWRITE?", just say Yes. 
I've already seperated out the various folders (Aircraft, Decals, etc), so they'll drop right where they're supposed to be.
----------------------------
Historically, No.164 Argentine-British also flew the Va. They used the "FJ" code on their aircraft. I'm sure there are other units, but haven't been able to run them down accurately. So, it's easier to just stay with No.92, as the Vb & c cannon armed versions were soon in service.
As this aircraft LOD lacks the hardpoints the Mk.V had, I've used  the Fake Pilot Method (tm) to add ONLY the centerline station for a drop tank.

SF2 WW2 ETO Gloster Meteor F.3 "Stand In" Pak 9/11/2013
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
 
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged, Plus Expansion Paks (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
**Note: Having wichever SF2I Expansion Pak that gave us the Meteor 8 is =REQURIED=. As this mod makes use of that stock 3W Lod, you =MUST= have said Expansion Pak as part of you merged installs. Otherwise, this mod does you no good, and you shouldn't download it.**
 
A reskinning and redecaling of the stock 3W Meteor F8 to create a "Stand-In" WW2 era Meteor 3. Yes, we all know there are =SUBSTANTIAL= physical differences between the early and later production marks, but this WILL allow you an RAF jet for anti-diver patrols and causing general mayhem in the closing months of the War. And possibly against some of the Luftwaffe jets recently released, and those still to come.
 
The markings are all decals, representing No. 616 Squadron "South Yorkshire" circa late 1944 thru 1945. These are reused from an old 1stGen mod of mine. The serial numbers are historically correct as they ARE for the F.3 variant. Decal randomization is TRUE. Serials and Plane-in-Group letters for 26 aircraft are supplied.
 
The canopy opens with the Standard Animations Keystroke (Shift/0). The pilot figure is included, but weapons are NOT, as they reference ALL stock 3W in-game items, with the exception of the RAF500 pound ww2 era bomb. You should already have this in you game via various WW2 weapons packs.
My 1stGen 'box art' hangar screen is included, now revamped for SF2.
 
When In Game you'll see:
 
Meteor F.3 (SI-3W)
 
on the aircraft selection drop down menu. This will diferentiate it for those that may (or may not) have the DAT F.3.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them.

...and one "just for fun" aircraft -- you all KNOW which movie Mosquito's I'm talking about!
 
When discoverable, the Squadron Crest is used for the 'color chip' on the Loadout Screen.
A new (mostly) SF2 compliant FM was created*. All loadouts have been corrected; gun round counts are now accurate. Unfortunately, due to AI problems, the FB.VI has all the guns set as "Primary".
 
Sounds, pilot figures and weapons are included, as are new SF2 versions of the Hangar screens, several of which are COMPLETLY new for this package.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Also, as mentioned, the "Notes" section for other stuff of interest.

The Avro Lancaster is a British four-engined Second World War heavy bomber designed and built by Avro for the Royal Air Force (RAF). It first saw active service with RAF Bomber Command in 1942 and, as the strategic bombing offensive over Europe gathered momentum, it became the main heavy bomber used by the RAF, the RCAF, and squadrons from other Commonwealth and European countries serving within the RAF, overshadowing its close contemporaries the Handley Page Halifax and Short Stirling.The "Lanc", as it was affectionately known,thus became the most famous and most successful of the Second World War night bombers, "delivering 608,612 long tons of bombs in 156,000 sorties."

SF2 IDF/AF Bristol Beaufighter TF Mk.X by Cocas 1/4/2016
 
= For SF2:I, (Full-5 Merged, Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, at any patch level. It was built for SF2 ONLY!!.*
 
*Note x2: This is a nationalized, stand-alone, version designed =ONLY= for use by the IDF/AF*
 
This mod represents the 4 Beaus used by the IDF's No. 103 squadron in late 1948. They had a VERY short service life, and this is reflected in the data ini. Operational dates are rounded to 'whole months'. Historically, there were 5 aircraft, one crashing before leaving England. I've given you 6 serial number decals, just because.
 
All markings, excepting the fuselage stripe, are decals and decal randomization is TRUE. This is a complete package, containing all "bits" necessary - weapons (bombs, rockets, rocket rails, drop tank) pilot figures, sounds and etc. Guns are not, as the 20mm cannon is a stock item. The torpedo capability has been removed, as research has turned up nothing even remotely mentioning it. Mission tasking in the data ini, and loadouts have been adjusted accordingly.
 
This mod is designed to replace, in total, any and all earlier versions that are no longer available from "other sources". The may cause issues with existing campaigns (if any that use the Beau), but are easily fixed with the simple text edit of the campaign ini.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!!

SF2 Fairey Firefly Pak, Post-WW2, Korea & Post-Korea, by Simon Porter
 
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred*) =
*Note: the data ini includes statements usable ONLY in a Full-5 Merged install, as SF2NA contains the proper coding for Carrier basing/usage.*
 
Some extensive rebuilding (ini and skin wise) of Simon Porter's 2005 Beta Release of the Fairey Firefly Mk5 (aka FR.5). The pak is designed to replace any and all other earlier SF/Wo* versions existing.
 
All skins and decals are brand new for this mod; the skins were created via a Home-Grown Template ™. The template is included. All markings are decals, making it easy to 'swapout' ship ID letters (provided as decals) or skins to create other operational squadrons. The skins are in jpg format. All new dds-format damage textures are included.
 
A new SF2 (semi) compliant FM was created, as was the new Userlist.ini. A "new" SF2 version of my original "box art" hangar screen is included, as is the engine sound. This aircraft has been tested in a Full-5 Merged envoriment, in SF2NA for carrier operations.
 
This pak contains the following skins:
Royal Navy, Fleet Air Arm:
812 Squadron, HMS Ocean circa 1953-ish (withOUT 'Invasion Stripes')
827 Squadron, HMS Triumph, early Korean War withOUT 'Invasion Stripes' (1950)
827 Squadron, HMS Theseus, mid-late Korean War WITH 'Invasion Stripes' (circa 1951)
Royal Australian Navy, Fleet Air Arm:
817 Squadron, HMAS Sidney, circa 1951
 
The RN squadrons use a 'pool' of 25 generic serial/Modex Number decals shared amongst them. I say generic, as they represent FR.5 models from the 1948-55 time frame, but with little hard data available, it's almost impossible to run down "which went to what squadron aboard what boat". The RAN serials, are also 100% historic, but again are limited to those known to have operated aboard HMAS Sidney at some point during the Korean War. There are 19 RAN serial/modex decals.
Weapons are NOT included, as they are readily available in The Gunny Pak or the KAW weapons pak, both available here at CA.
 
PLEASE remember -- the aircraft lod is still in it's 2005 form (read: the Beta) and many bits are not quite right. As there is no MAX file available, the aircraft "is as it is". Some aerodynamic components exist only in the 'virtual state' as data ini statements.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. Simon's original Readme is also enclosed.

SF2 WW2 Hawker Hurricane IIC (MTO/DAF), by Raven
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO/MTO 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, all the features will NOT be working as designed. But it SHOULD work!*
 
Some modification, tweeks, reskin and so forth for Raven's excellent Hurri 2C, create a semi-dedicated version for North Africa/Western Desert/MTO usage.
Originally, I was just going to do an 'update pak', but it was just as easy to assemble a Full Aircaft Package. This was done simply for 'ease of use' (read: laziness!!! ). The LOD fix has already been applied.
 
A new Desert camo skin for 213 Squadron was created from Raven's templates. The decals are 'retreads' from my original 1stGen skin.
 
This skin is still in bmp format. Decal randomization is TRUE. As all the markings are decals, it would be quite easy for other skinners to recreate other squadron that used the IIC Trop in the Western Desert/North Africa/Italy/MTO/etc.
 
Data ini edits add the 'destroyed model' statements; the destroyed model is also included (from the WW2 terrains, and works perfectly!). Mission statements have been adjusted to maximize on the Ground Attack potential; A-A statement have been limited to CAP/Intercept. FM has not been touched; it flys just fine in SF2.
Other ini edits replace the gunsight with my old EAW Pappa Romeo conversion (done for us old folks with old eyes; this is much easier to see!). The pilot figure was also swapped for something more 'tropical' looking.
A new SF2 version of my original "Box Art" hangar screen and a NEW Desert-themed Loading screen, are included.
 
All of Raven's weapons for the Hurricane are included, upgraded for SF2 usage. These are ALL the weapons, for all his Hurricanes (as there are several other mods in the works). Odds are, that those that know how, will have already made the SF2 conversion; this is done as a "CYA Measure" for those that haven't, are d/ling for the first time, or just because! All other RAF WW2-style bombs are included as well.
 
When 'in game', you'll see "Hurricane Mk.IIc Trop (Raven)" on the drop down menu. This will differentiate it from any other IICs you may (or may not) have.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please =READ= them.
Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
 
With Thanks To Raven for the bird, and the OK to tweek her!

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
 
-- 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, 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.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 Spitfire Mk.V Pak by Cocas Aircraft Factory & Co (ver 0.9) 12/10/2013
 
-- Something for the ETO players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: having whichever expansion pak gave us the Spit Mk. IX is required, as this mod references the stock 3W
destroyed Spitfire*
 
This is tagged as Ver 0.9, as we're sure minor fixes may be required.
 
Skins included with the package are:
 
RAF:
No. 92 "East India" Squadron
No. 610 "County of Chester" Squadron
 
USAAF:
336th FS, 4th FG "Rocketeers" (circa 9/42)*
 
(*Please note, as ex-Eagle Squadron aircraft, they still carry their RAF squadron code letters. The standard 4th FG codes did -not- appear until after transitioning to Thunderbolts)
Squadron crests, or in AAF cases the squadron patch, are used as the paint chip, seen on the loadout screen.
 
This pack makes use of the Brain32 trick of having the skin maps in the MAIN aircraft folder, NOT in the individual squadron folders. As all ETO Spitfires were painted the same camo, this reduces the size of the package. Only the markings (squadron codes, national insignia) change.
 
All marking are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. Other squadrons, RAF or USAAF, can easily be done by creating new squadron code letters. The AAF skin is set to start in September, 1942, as this is approximately correct for the 4th FGs formation. The Userlist ini has dates rounded to the closest whole month. SF2 versions of my "box art" style hangar and loading screens are included.
 
All aircraft use a "pool" of plane-in-group letters, and serial numbers. The serial numbers, while 'generic' in nature (representing no particular aircraft), ARE correct for the variant depicted.
The canopy operates via the Standard Animation Keystroke ™, Shift/0. Guns are also grouped, MGs in Group 1, the cannon in Group 2.
 
When in game, you'll see:
 
Spitfire Mk.Vb (CAF)
 
on the aircraft selection dropdown menu. This will diferentiate =THIS= Spitfire from any other Mk.Vs you may (or may not) have.
 
The skin template is NOT included, as it's being used for other variants. When those are finished, and released, the template will be also (in the hopes someone can fine tune OUT my mistakes! <grin>).
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them.
 
Good Hunting!

SF2 WW2 ETO Bristol Beaufighter Mk.1 series (Early), v.9 by Cocas 2/10/2014
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, at any patch level.
It was built for SF2 ONLY!! Also, some statements for anti-ship/naval strike
require having SF2NA as part of your merged install (meaning: your WW2 ETO mods
folder built from the SF2NA exe).*
*Note x2: This mod represents Beau Mk.1s for Northern Europe ONLY! Seperate
versions are in the works for MTO, PTO and CBI usage, as their start/end dates
tend to differ.*
 
These are BRAND NEW aircraft, brought to you by Cocas Aircraft Factory & Co.
This is the first of a set of Beaufighters. This package contains 3 aircraft,
representing the early production Beaufighters. These have the flat or no
dihedral horizontial stabs.
We are calling this "version 0.9", as there exists the possibility of more work
being required. But, we wanted to get them out into the hands of our WW2 End
Users ™ for their examination and so forth.
 
This pack contains the following aircraft & skin/decal sets:
 
Beaufighter Mk.1F (Day Fighter)
No. 25 Squadron
 
Beaufighter NF Mk.1 (Night Fighter)
No. 604 Squadron "County of Middlesex"
 
Beaufighter MK.1C (Coastal Command)
No 143 Squadron
No. 236 Squadron
 
Please note, on the 1C, you'll switch from the Standard Day Scheme (dark
green/light earth/sky) to the CC Sea Camo (MSG/DSG/sky) in 1942. The Squadron
Crest for each is used as the paint chip seen on the Loadout Screen.
Skins are in jpg format, as are the bump maps. Damage textures are in DDS.
Everything is included, excepting the guns (you should have all these already).
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is set to TRUE.
 
When in-game, you'll see:
 
Beaufighter Mk IF (Early) (CAF)
 
Beaufighter NF Mk.I (Early) (CAF)
 
Beaufighter Mk IC (CAF)
 
for the 3 aircraft. The "CAF" (for Cocas Aircraft Factory) will differentiate
these Beaus from any others you may or may not have.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are
included. So, please =READ= them!!!. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
 
Happy Hunting!

SF2 WW2 ETO Bristol Beaufighter Mk.VI (Early), v.9 by Cocas 3/1/2014
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, at any patch level.
It was built for SF2 ONLY!!.*
 
*Note x2: This mod represents the early production Beau Mk.VIs for ETO and MTO
usage ONLY! Seperate versions for other theatres, and later marks, will be
released when and as they are finished. (although, with a differently painted
skin, it could be used for CBI/PTO...)
We are calling this "version 0.9", as there exists the possibility of more work
being required. But, we wanted to get them out into the hands of our WW2 End
Users ™ for their examination and so forth.*
 
This is a BRAND NEW aircraft, brought to you by Cocas Aircraft Factory & Co.
This package contains 1 aircraft, representing a mix-mash of 3 different
(early) Mk.VI variants, so I'm calling this the "Beaufighter 6 Mix":
 
VIF
VIC
ITF
 
These marks =HAVE= the dihedral horizontial stabs (they point up). There is no
MG turret, and no AI or ASV radar. The aircraft IS equipped to carry rockets
and a torpedo, as well as 2 bombs on the wing stations - but, obviously! not
all at the same time!! (see notes for more information).
 
This pack contains the following aircraft & skin/decal sets:
 
Beaufighter Mk.VIF Standard CC Scheme (Overall MSG/Dark Green disruptive)
No. 236 Squadron, Coastal Command
 
The Squadron Crest for each is used as the paint chip seen on the Loadout
Screen.
Skins are in jpg format, as are the bump maps. Damage textures are in DDS.
Everything is included (rockets,bombs,chickens,beer), excepting the guns (you
should have all these already).
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. Other
squadrons can easily be reproduced by creating new squadron code letters (either
for ETO or MTO usage). As is my habit, a sample bmp are left in the Decals
folder so you can match the font and size.
All serials, while correct for the variant depicted, should be considered
'generic' in nature, as they represent no specific aircraft with the units
represented.
 
When in-game, you'll see:
 
Beaufighter Mk VIF (Early) (CAF)
 
for this aircraft. The "CAF" (for Cocas Aircraft Factory) will diferentiate
these Beaus from any others you may or may not have. I've left it as "VIF", as
I really don't know what else to call it!! :)
 
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.
 
Happy Hunting!

SF2 WW2 ETO Bristol Beaufighter TF.X, v.9 by Cocas 1/2/2016
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, at any patch level. It was built for SF2 ONLY!!.*
 
*Note x2: This mod represents both early and late production Beau TF Mk.X for ETO and MTO** usage ONLY! Seperate versions for other theatres, will be released when and as they are finshed.
We are calling this "version 0.9", as there exists the possibility, at some point in the future, of more work being done. But, we wanted to get them out into the hands of our WW2 End Users ™ for their examination, flying pleasures and so forth.*
 
**= will require new squadron code and/or individual aircraft letter decals. But the paint scheme is the same for MTO usage, in the aircraft lifespan/timeframe. However, SEAC/SoWesPac are completely different, and will require the release of "theatre specific" versions.
 
This is a BRAND NEW aircraft, brought to you by Cocas Aircraft Factory & Co. This package contains 2 complete aircraft, representing the Beaufighter TF Mk.X in both it's iterations.
This pack contains the following aircraft & skin/decal sets:
 
Beaufighter TF Mk.X (Early)
 
No.143 Squadron
No.236 Squadron
No.254 Squadron -- all of North Coates Strike Wing, Coastal Command
 
Beaufighter TF MK.X (Late)
 
No.254 Squadron, CC
 
The TF Mk.X (Early) has the rear flex MG, no radar and no fin extension.
The TF Mk.X (Late) is the final produciton verison, with thimble nose radar, rear flex gun, and the tail fin extension.
 
The Squadron Crest is used as the paint chip seen on the Loadout Screen. Skins are in jpg format. Everything is included (weapons, pilot figures, sounds, etc), excepting the guns (you should have all these already).
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. Other squadrons can easily be reproduced by creating new squadon code letters (either for ETO or MTO usage). As is my habit, a sample bmp is left in the Decals folder so you can match the font and size.
All serials, while correct for the variant depicted, should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they represent no specific aircraft with the unit(s) represented.
 
When in-game, you'll see:
 
Beaufighter TF Mk.X (Early) (CAF)
Beaufighter TF Mk.X (Late) (CAF)
 
on the aircraft selection drop-down for this aircraft. The "CAF" (for Cocas Aircraft Factory) will diferentiate these Beaus from any others you may or may not have. It =IS= designed to replace any other Beaus of this type from "other sources".
 
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.
