  1. EF2000 Typhoon Add-on

    EF2000 Typhoon Add-on
    February 13th, 2025 (1st Release)
    by GKABS, Bongodriver, ace888, compufat and Menrva

    >For Strike Fighters 2 games
    This is a complete add-on of the EF2000 Typhoon aircraft, featuring all of its Real World operators. The original model by Bongodriver has been overhauled by GKABS with additional details, including a proper PIRATE System built into the aircraft's 3d model.
    The package currently includes the following operators and relative skins produced by ace888, GKABS and compufat, with tweaks by yours truly where needed for quality consistency:
    -Royal Air Force, 15 skins
    -German Air Force, 14 skins
    -Italian Air Force, 9 skins
    -Spanish Air Force, 5 skins
    -Austrian Air Force, 2 skins
    -Royal Saudi Air Force, 2 skins
    -Kuwait Air Force, 2 skins
    -Qatar Emiri Air Force, 1 skin
    -Royal Air Force of Oman, 1 skin
    I further polished the package by adding historically accurate weapon loadouts for all operators throughout the years, my own selection of sounds, new cockpit and HUD textures and other smaller tweaks here and there. The incredibly detailed weapons included in the package are the courtesy of ravenclaw_07.

    Notes:
    -The aircraft folder is named "EF2000". In order to avoid mismatches and bugs of any sort, it's highly suggested to either remove or rename any pre-existing "EF2000" folder you might have.
    -You need to tweak the SoundList.ini file in order to fully experience any new sounds. Read "(Add to SoundList)" for further details, and remember to extract the SoundList.ini file from the FlightData.cat archive, if you do not have a custom one in your mod folder already.

    >Credits (in no particular order):
    -GKABS, for reworking the original aircraft 3d model by Bongodriver, for skins and decals for Kuwait and Qatar and for his reworked templates.
    -ravenclaw_07, for his fantastic high quality recreations of missiles, bombs and pods.
    -ace888, for reworking the original add-on by Bongodriver with several new skins and decals for all operators of the time.
    -compufat, for supporting this project with skins of special liveries.
    -Bongodriver, for his original EF2000 aircraft and cockpit 3d models and for the skin templates.
    -My girlfriend, for supporting me in all of my endeavors.

  4. EF-2000 Eurofighter Typhoon "BETA" Pack

    SF2 - EF-2000 Eurofighter Typhoon "BETA" Pack
     
    This aircraft is tested on Fully Merged SF2E/I/NA/V on July 2013 patch.
     
    The aircraft is to be use under the COMBATACE rules "ONLY"
     
    DO NOT VIOLATE THE RULE OR PERFORM PIRACY!
     

    First, I want to thank Bongodriever for his "superb" re-work of his EF-2000 for SF2.
    Despite being a "Beta" it is an exceptional aircraft. Lets hope he will finish the work someday?
    Also, without his work... we would of all have to wait for another talented individual to make this aircraft.
    Thank you very much Craig.
     

    I want to take this opportunity to dedicate this Aircraft to the following individuals:
     

    "Spinners" - I want to thank you for helping me to get started in becoming a Modder at Combatace.
    Even though time have past, I have not forgotten about your kindness, support, and patience in teaching me the basics.
     
    I also want to thank... "Fastcargo" "Wrench" and "Sundowner" for their early support as well.
     
    Of course, since the early days to the present. I had the pleasure of being helped by so many other great and talented
    people... You know who you are... Thank you all for sharing your knowledge and many other things...
     

    Now, since this is a BETA... Pretty much all deficiencies are well known. So do not make uncessary post or comments if you find an issue.
     
    Please take the time to read the "knowledge base section for SF2" to install this aircraft, as well as, to answer many questions you might have?
     
    Yes, the knowledge base section has wealth of information that answers most of your concerns or issues. Make the effort to learn it, DO NOT BE LAZY.
     
    Also, make the effort to use the search function for your concerns or issues. You will be surprised that many of topic issues have already been discussed.
     
    Lastly, the file is BIG... I did do my due diligence to make sure all is correct. But like anything in life, there is a chance that I might have miss something or made an error?
    Feel free to make the post if you find something that is not correct?
     
     
     
    This file contain all of the air wings and squadrons from all of the current EF-2000 user and soon to be user of the EF-2000.
     
    Instead of listing them (which is very long), look at the files and you will know who they are...
     
    With the exception of the RAF 43(F) Sqn and the 2(AC) Special markings, all of the squadrons are current or were in existence.
     
    - 43(F) squadron was suppose to be the next Typhoon squadron this year, but that was changed when 2(AC) squadron was selected instead.
    - 2(AC) special marking was something I just added.
     
    Note #1: Until Ravenclaw finish the KEPD-350, the GAF and the Eda will not show a stand-off weapon under the loadout for "strike".
    I use the KEPD_350 as a reminder for future changes on the loadout.
     
    Note #2: ONly RAF is using the swing-Role for the EF-2000. Most other nations are using the EF-2000 for Air Defense only, but are starting to use the ground attach capability.
    So, the loadout is not the most accurate for the various ground roles. You can change it to what ever you like.
     
    Note #3: Pirate cam will appear when you use the AA mode. With targeting pod loaded, you have to select the AG mode to use the targeting pod cam.
     
     
     
    All work are done by me with the exception of the credits given to the people below:
     
     
     
    Bongodriver - Aircraft/Seat/.LODs and most of the .INIs (with tweaks by me)
    ChrisBV - Pilots (I slightly modified the skin)
    Florian/JAT - Pilot
    Ravenclaw - Weapons (I modified one of the weapon to make the GBU-48B)
    FastCargo - Fakepilot
    Eagle114th - Wingtip vortex (I modified both the skakey/straight vortex effects, also can use both at the same time)
    Spillone104 - Engine sounds
     

    If I have forgotten anyone for their work, my apologies, and your work is being recognized and credited.
     
    Thank you for reading.
     
    I hope you will enjoy flying this aircraft.
     
     
     
    Cheers!

  5. EF-2000 typhoon beta for SF 2 series

    Typhoon beta for SF2 series....
     
    These folders go into the relevant directories in the C:/users/xxx/saved
     
    games/ThirdWire........
     
    This is very very beta at the moment so bare that in mind before asking
     
    too many questions or complaining :)
     
    I have released this for some community evaluation and to get some
     
    general help with tweaking, give it a go and see what you think.
     
    it has a 'what if' 74 squadron tigers skin for now and is using my
     
    original pit from the first typhoon, also the HUD symbology has 2 shades
     
    of green...this is from some testing I did and I havent bothered to
     
    revert to just 1 shade so it's not a bug, the HUD is formatted to the WIP
     
    pit so it will overlap the current one.
     
    still WIP is a brand new pit which will use the new eye candy like bump
     
    and specular.....
     
    enjoy

  6. EF-2000 Eurofighter SF2

    ****EF-2000 Eurofighter For SF2****
     
    by Bongodriver
     
     
    Credits part of original ReadMe:
     
    A BIG BIG thanks to
     
    USAFMTL (and various partners in crime) for his help and guidance and support.
     
    Jimmybib and Sundowner for initial consultation on skinning and all credit to Sundowner for producing the final skins which are superb.
     
    Moonjumper for his advice on some avionics matters
     
    All of you for you encouragement and kind words through it's development
     
    My Producers....etc...etc :) Oh god I'm going to cry..
     
    Anyway I decided to release slightly early because I'd like some of you to enjoy tweaking this thing, theres alot of talent out there who can make this thing great.
     
     
    Absolutely no part of this is to be used in payware but moddify the model any way you wish and re distribute in your own freeware mods as you wish with no permission required from me, just give me the relevant credit.
     
    The skins are Sundowners so ask him if you wish to make mods of them.
     
    Enjoy...
     
    **************************************************************************
     
     
    INSTALL: Simply extract contents of "EF-2000 Typhoon" folder into your MOD folder
     
     
    NOTES: Includes recent pilot and seat fix for SF2 series posted by Sundowner so this pack is as up to date as possible.
    Also, again please note I only did the conversion, the guys above did the hard work.
     
    03/07/2009 - added afterburner effects!
     
    Until the next time I bore you to death with my uniform ReadMe's that are basically an edited copy of original ones - enjoy. xD
