G4M2 Betty Update: for SF/WoV/WoE WW2, PTO installs
This little modification includes several small changes to the data, loadout and a partial re-skin for ArmorDave's G4M2 Betty IJN bomber. Included is also a cockpit ini (based off Pasko's Mosquito) for those perverts that like to fly bombers. The cockpit itself, however, is NOT included.
The data ini update includes tweeks to the weapons stations, creating a semi-conformal mount for the Type 91 torpedo, slightly adjusted bomb loads, repositioning the running lights, repositioning the exhaust emitters so now each engine leaves a trail; small adjustments to the turrets, the additions of the nose and waist gunner stations; which at present are NOT working (see note below for more info and plea for help!)
I say partial re-skin, as I'm ONLY including the one skin bmp, partly repainted to represent aircraft from 752 Kokutai. Included are individual number decals for 18 aircraft, plus one 'generic' stand-in for those off the end of the list...Only the one skin bmp is included; you'll be copy/pasting the other from the 'Green' skin folder over to the 752 skin folder.
The other skin folder, represents aircraft from 763 Kokutai. Both the skin bmps are NOT included -- you'll be copying them over from the original "Green" skin folder.
= You MUST have the latest Weapons Pak installed for the WW2 Weapons!!! =
And, obviously, you must have AD's Betty installed to use the package....
PLEASE read the enclosed readme for fairly simple, easy to follow install instructions. Also, His Imperial Majesty, the Emporer requires you read the "Other Notes" section. If not, there's an Okha with your name on it....
Enjoy!

P-47D-25, Generic Post-WW2 Skin for SF, WoV & WoE
A "simple garden variety" natural metal skin for Wolf's P-47D-25 'Bubbletop' Thunderbolt.
This is a 'representative' skin for the F-47D Thunderbolt, in the post-1947 era, right after the formation of the US Air Force. As they were still a few around for a few years, mostly in the Air National Guard, I thought I'd throw together a little something. Now, mind you, these are NOT ANG aircraft, but should be considered as 'front line', as I didn't create ANG style decals.
The tail serial numbers are actual P-47D serials, just so's your tail fin don't look and feel so neeked.
I've also created the "buzz numbers" so prevelant in the post-war period, and into the Korea War, so this skin set will fit nicely into a "Cold War Gone Hot: 1948" scenario.
There are a few changes in the cockpit ini, adding a new sight tga (USAAF Mk.8). Instructions are below, in the "To Install" section.
And, once again, all the lights have correct positions, colors, including a landing light.
A new, WoE style Hangar Screen is also provided.
Information of 'fixing' the loadout problem with the Triple-Bazooka launchers is also supplied
== You MUST also have the latest weapons pak to make use of the WW2 weapons.==

P-51D-30, Generic Post-WW2 Skin and Ini Update for SF, WoV & WoE
A "simple, plain old garden variety" natural metal skin for Wolf's P-51D-30 Mustang, that uses the "P-51D30_V3.LOD", or in other words, the latest version that's available in the "Planes Pak", to be found at CombatAce .
This is a 'representative' skin for the F-51D Mustang, in the post-1947 era, right after the formation of the US Air Force. I did some experimentation with 'paneling'. I just used various verrry light tones of gray to try and create the differing panel sections. The skin itself was created from Wolf's original template, with cleaned up and redrawn panel lines, my 'interperative' rivets, and a new look for the cowl vent/air filter inlet.
The tail serial numbers are actual P-51D serials, just so's your tail fin don't look and feel so neeked.
I've also created the "buzz numbers" so prevelant in the post-war period, and into the Korea War, so this skin set will fit nicely into a "Cold War Gone Hot: 1948" scenario, or even a Korean War one.
As everybody knows how I hate to waste good decals, and just for fun, I transfered over and positioned a whole bunch of the various nose arts from other aircraft. So there's something to look at; and most surely against the Regs in the post-war era....there may be some partial or semi-nudidity on some some of them.
A few changes in the cockpit ini, added 2 new sight tgas (K-14 AA and AG sights). Instructions are below, in the "To Install" section.
And, once again, all the lights have correct positions, colors, and that nice little retractable landing light lens that Wolf provided for us, in now actually the landing light. --- really, this is the last time I'm fixing it!!!!
A new, WoE style Hangar Screen is also provided, for those wishing to use the aircraft/skin in a CWGH: 48 style install.
== You MUST also have the latest weapons pak to make use of the WW2 weapons.==
As stated above, there here highly detailed, step-by-step install instructions -- so PLEASE read them, ok???

Polikarpov I-16-10 CAF update package for SF/WoV/WoE WW2: PTO installs
This little package will upgrade Wolf's cute little Soviet fighter to fit more with current standards of loads, lights and cockpit. You'll be transfering files from another of his WW2 Planes, so make sure you have them installed.
I've included a newer version of Wolf's Chinese Air Force skin. The skin has newly redrawn panel lines, 'interperative' rivets added (meaning I claim no historical accuracy for their placement), some weathering and general dirt added. But -- the credit for the original skin is STILL with Wolf; all I did was fiddle with some eye candy bits.
This package contains tweeked data, loadout and cockpit inis. The cockpit ini (now called "Rata_Cockpit.ini) is a copy of the one from Wolf's Tomahawk/P-40B, as it has a better look for this aircraft (albeit not perfect, but workable). You will be transfering the cockpit folder from the Tomahawk for use in this aircraft. The ini has had the pilot positions adjusted to match the I-16, plus some 'moves' courtesy of what I've learned from Lexx_Luthor.
I have also included a small (25kg) WW2 Soviet bomb, that comes with the Dev A-Team's IL-2, so you'll be using the weapons editor to add this as well.
==NOTE: YOU MUST HAVE THE LATEST WEAPONS PAK INSTALLED TO GET THE WW2 WEAPONS!!==

It includes a 2 skins, a natural metal for 1 Sentai, circa 1939/40-ish; and a Generic IJAAF Green (both revamped from my eariler ones). The skins have newly redrawn panel lines, 'interperative' rivets added (meaning I claim no historical accuracy for their placement), simulated fabric surfaces, some weathering and general dirt added.
This package contains tweeked main, data, loadout and cockpit inis. The cockpit ini (now called "Nate_Cockpit.ini) is a copy of the one from AD's Ki-43 'Oscar', as it has the best look for this aircraft. You will be transfering the cockpit folder from AD's Oscar for use in this aircraft (make sure you have it!). The ini has had the pilot positions adjusted to match the Ki-27.

USAAF P-51C Mustang Upgrade & Skin Pak for SF/WoV/WoE, WW2 ETO Installs
This is a re-skin and ini upgrade package for Wolf's P-51C "Mustang" (Malcom Hood). The skin was created from his orginal template, but I've redrawn all the panel lines, added some rivets, made various and sundry enhancements to the skin; made several changes in the data, loadout and cockpit inis. A new N-3 gunsight tga has also been included.
The skin represents aircraft from 356th Fighter Squadron, 354th Fighter Group "The Pioneer Mustang" unit circa 1944/45 (pre-invasion striped, or post invasion striped -whichever you deceide!). I've heavly researched this unit, and as best I could, tried to match photos of the nose art. Where data was available, the actual serial numbers have been used. All others are C model serials, but I make no claims to if they actually served in 356th. Some of the nose arts are 'interperative'; meaning I did them in the best way I could to get them to fit on the aircraft. Some are in the 99% acuracy range, so I think you all should be pretty happy with them. You'll have squadron codes and individual letters for 26 aircraft
You'll also find a new "MustangC" hangar screen, I created just for this mod, and ONLY available with it!!!
==NOTE: YOU MUST HAVE THE LATEST WEAPONS PAK INSTALLED FOR PROPER WEAPONS LOADOUT!!==
PLEASE read the enclosed readme for full, detailed install instructions, plus comments and notes that you might find interesting.
Happy Landings!!!
