VERSION 2.0 NOTES
-----------------
This updated version of my original C-130J-30 has some
changes to the model as well as the inclusion of a virtual
cockpit.
 
The main changes/additions to the model in Ver 2.0 were:
- Added all the antennas and aerials to the top and bottom.
- Added pitot probes either side of the nose
- Moved the landing gear pods forward. (The old model didn't
look "stretched" because the pods were too far back.)
- Reshaped the tail and dorsal fin. (Also didn't look right)
- Cleaned up the Wing/Fuselage interface.
- Fixed the landing gear shock animation and made it so the
rudder will turn the nose wheel on the ground.
- Extended the cargo compartment inside the aircraft and
added two new pallet and three vehicle positions. At this
stage, the only vehicle you can load is the M38 jeep
included in the game (so sorry, no chute animation).
- Modelled the MAWS sensors on the nose and tail.
- Modelled the damaged outer wing section.
- Fixed the flight model to more accurately resemble that
of a Herc.
- Added two external hardpoints for external fuel tanks.
- Fixed the texture mapping on the control surfaces.
- New Hangar and Loading screen.

MiG-27K (K ... Korabelnui ... carrier based) for WoE
 
This is a mod of the stock MiG-27 of Wings over Europe.
It will not work with SFP1 and WOV because the lod files are not included.
If you want to use it with SFP1 or WOV you must extract the files MiG-27.lod
MiG-27_LOD2.lod
MiG-27_LOD3.lod
MiG-27_LOD4.lod
MiG-27_LOD5.lod from objects.cat of WOE and copy them in the MiG-27K folder.
 
******************************************************
INSTALLATION:
 
Unzip all files into your Wings Over Europe/Objects/Aircraft folder.
 
Thats it.
 
******************************************************
 
The MiG-27K was originally intended as attack plane of the soviet carriers of the Orel class. In the 70th the Orel was a high ranking aircraft carrier project of the Soviet Navy (Project 1153 if i remember right). It was canceled by Marshall Grechko who favored the Project 1143, the later Kiev class aircraft carrier.
The MiG-27K was build in 2 or 3 prototypes and were tested at the Saki facility (Crimea Penisula).
 
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 
 
differences to stock MiG-27:
* modified flightmodel of the plane to improve the handling.
* added capability to land on aircraft carriers
* added some armour, so that the MiG-27 now can survive MG fire
* added on board jammer
* added 15 flares and 15 Chaff
* added Magos great MiG-21F cockpit (thanks for it Mago!)
* plane can now fly intercept and CAP missions
 
Known problem: You cant see the tailhook coming down.
 
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 
 
Hope you enjoy it

MiG-23MK for WoE
 
This is a mod of the stock MiG-23M of Wings over Europe.
It will not work with SFP1 and WOV because the lod files are not included.
If you want to use it with SFP1 or WOV you must extract the files
MiG-23M.lod
MiG-23M_2.lod
MiG-23M_3.lod
MiG-23M_4.lod
MiG-23M_5.lod
from WOE objects.cat and copy them into your MiG-23M folder.
 
******************************************************
INSTALLATION:
 
Unzip all files into your Wings Over Europe/Objects/Aircraft folder.
 
Thats it.
 
******************************************************
 
The MiG-23MK is fiction, so far that no carrierborne MiG-23 was built in the Soviet Union. But during the 70th the Soviet Navy had a high ranking aircraft carrier programm (Orel or Orjol class). Orel was canceled by Marshall Grechko who favored the Project 1143, the later Kiev class aircraft carrier.
For soviet carrier groups the MiG-23 was the planned interceptor, the MiG-27 the intended strike plane. From both types prototypes were built, as far as i know, and were tested at the Saki facility at the Crimea penisula. With the canceling of the Orel was no need for seria production of the MiG-23MK.
 
*******************************************************
 
differences to stock MiG-23M:
* modified flightmodel of the plane to improve the handling.
* added capability to land on aircraft carriers
* added on board jammer
* added 15 flares and 15 Chaff
* added Magos great MiG-21MF cockpit (thanks for it Mago!)
* added working HUD (inspired by the HUD of Marcfighters Su-27 and TK's F-15 and Harrier. Thanks for it!) The HUD is much more improved than in my flyable MiG-23M
* added the capability to carry 2 fuel tanks under the outer wings
 
Known problem: You cant see the tailhook coming down.

This is just a .ini update for the F-14D made by Typhoid, to wich i made some fixes:
 
-Wing spoilers work realistically*.
-Stabilizers work as roll controll too, like on the real plane.
-Wing sweep is slower.
-Weapon position fixed on the phoenix pylons.
-"Neutralized" the glove wings (the little triangular siwing wings above the intakes, since in the D version those where actually removed).
-**Added LANTIRN capability.
-**Added TARPS capability.
 
*This means that the plane acts (with the flight model option in hard) as it should on real life, i.e. slower roll at speeds above 400 knots, as well the spoilers won't move at such speeds.
 
**This were already updated by Typhoid, done by him; But since i didn't knew that update was released until a few days ago i made that fix myself. Still the credit goes to Typhoid
 
That's basically it. Enjoy
 
//---INSTALATION----\\
 
1.-Backup the F-14D_DATA.ini file.
2.-Paste this F-14D_DATA.ini where it should be (.../Aircraft/F-14D folder).

MiG-29 isdelije 9.14 Sturmovik Fulcrum
 
*************************************
HISTORY of MiG-29 isdelije 9.14 development
*************************************
 
The MiG-29 is well known as an very spectacular fighter plane. From its first appearance on an airshow in the late 80th till today the MiG-29 is the star of each airshow.
 
Much less well known is the genisis story of this bird. It begann in 1972 when the Soviet Airforce demanded two new fighter designs. One long range escort plane and a frontline fighter. The MiG OKB decided to take on the competition and begann with the development of the project Isdelije 9.
3 variants of this plane were projected. Isdelije 9.10 as long range escort, is. 9.11 as frontlinefighter with MiG-23 avionics and armament for export and faster introduction into the soviet forces and finally the is. 9.12 as full scale frontline fighter.
In 1973 is. 9.10 was canceled because the Air Force choose the Sukhoi T-10 as long range escort fighter. In 1977 9.11 was canceled when it became obviesly that the Saphir-23 Radar does not fit into the MiG-29 fuselage. So is. 9.12 became the only MiG-29.
In 1982 the first MiG-29 (9.12) came to the units and already while the troop tests the pilots had 3 big demands. 1. more fuel for longer range. 2. an internal jammer. 3. a better air to ground capability.
To fullfill this requirements OKB MiG started the projects is. 9.13 (more fuel and jammer) and 9.14 (jammer and better air to ground capability)
9.13 development started in 1983. The fuselagetank No.1 was increased and the Berjoza jammer was installed.To have space for it in the fuselage the MiG-29 got a bigger back. From 1986 this plane was seen in the soviet fighter units. The NATO gave them the name Fulcrum-C, for the soviets it was still a MiG-29A (is. 9.13)
The development of the 9.14 was more difficult. The MiG-29 was from beginning a frontline fighter. What means, that it was intended to fight for the air superiority over the frontline, but also to support the fighting forces on the ground. In the air to ground role the MiG-29 (9.12) was twice as effective as the MiG-21 or 23, but only 15% as effective as a F-16A. To overcome this weakpoint it was decided to implement guided missiles of the Afghanistan war proven Cha-25 (Kh-25) family. It was planed to use the Cha-25ML laser guided missile, the Cha-25MP anti radar missile and the Cha-25MT TV guided missile. The guidance device was taken from the MiG-27M.
In the literature you can find two statements about the 9.14. The first said, the the laser/TV guidance device was built into a pod, which was carried under the central station, the other said, that the divice was built into the fuselage. (For my MiG-29 is. 9.14 i choose the later option, maybe, that it is wrong, maybe that it is correct. I dont know.)
In 1986 the 9.14 was ready for entering the production line, but the project came to a sudden stop. The reason was, that the air to ground capability of the MiG-29 is. 9.14 was dramatically increased, but it was still weaker than the F-16A (approx 66%). With first flight of the MiG-29M (is. 9.15) a much better Fulcrum was short for introducing. Its air to ground capability was better than the F-16A, it had a same efficency as the F-16C. It was decided to wait till the MiG-29M was available.
To stop the 9.14 introduction in the Soviet Air Force was a big mistake, because the breakdown of the Soviet Union stopped the MiG-29M development by nearly 15 years. So the MiG-29 had for a long period no real satisfying air to ground capability.

Model by Wpnssgt
Flight Model by Column5
 
 
The Cockpit is taken from MarcFighters Su-27

Cockpit by MarcFighter, Kesselbrut, BPAo (special thanks to Boopidoo, Mago and Badger for textures)
 
 
The Weapons
~~~~~~~~~
I took the missiles from Weaponpack. The credit for the weapon models belongs to the guys who made it.
 
And finally my little share
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I modified the HUD, added an Air to Ground mode. I edited the Data file to implement the guided missiles, reduced the fuel consumption and increased the engine thrust a little bit. And i moddified the original Skin by Wpnssgt to the green gray soviet style MiG-29 camo.

To the CombatAce community,
This is a selection of files for the 220ft diameter flying saucer that I recently constructed, but do not have the time or experience to fully complete. Please feel free to use and/or improve upon this model and release it with your own skin, flight model, etc. for the rest of the community to download and use. This may not be used in any payware and, if you do post a mod using this, I ask for credit to be given for the original model.
 
Included are the .lod and shadow files I was using for my basic tests in Wings Over Vietnam, though to most people
they will probably not be that useful: the windows did not appear (texture not assigned?) and I did not do any UV mapping,
so there is no basis for a skin yet.
With that in mind, I am supplying the last 3D Studio MAX 9 file I made ("flyingsaucer-lodready") and an FBX file.
The reference for this UFO model was a diagram from an old 1/48th scale model kit made by Testors, the only real significant
change that I made was the presence of eight windows in four groups instead of six evenly spaced ones on the upper deck.
 
Thank you and have fun continuing where I left off,

Bae HawkT mk1A of RAF Brawdy Wales UK.Number 1 Squadron,TWU,(Tactical Weapons Unit,(Training))
By Me.Russouk2002@aol.com
 
Contains....Hawk T/mk1A
Hangar screen
Loadout
And is armed with...
Aden Gunpod,Aim9`s,and Rockets,(which will be replaced by Matra rockets when made.For next release)
Bombs are optional.edit the weapondata for your own choices.The Gunpod is an option in the loadout as in reality its not a fixed weapon on the hawk.
 
Just drop the Hawk_T1A folder in sf\objects\Aircraft folder and Decal folder too,copy and paste contents of Objects folder in SF\Objects folder
 
This is a very Beta Release as its not fully completed.It is quite flyable though.
I am currently remapping the Hawk as the bmps are too small.And theres a degree of Bitmap stretching etc,tho not evident in game.But I know its there,lol...When 2nd realease is done ,it will be just a case of a new Lod and Bitmap Textures,and new weapons.The latter will be for the new patch\Weapons editor as its pointless doing them now when the patch is due.
The FM is ok for now (currently being worked on).
This release is solely for feedback soas to improve the airtcraft in anyways.Dont forget this is only my 1st aircraft released,so dont expect perfection yet...lol
Drone was my 1st actual model and the schoolhouse for Major lee,which turned out well.was the 2nd..
I hope you enjoy flying the hawk as much as I enjoyed making it.Just remember Im no expert at data ini`s..lol

THIS MOD DOES NOT HAVE ANY AIRCRAFT IN IT - YOU MUST HAVE THE LISTED AIRCRAFT TO BE ABLE TO USE THIS MOD!!!!
 
Su-33 mod readme for the TW series.
 
Version 1.0
 
Thanks to the following folks:
 
TK - For the ThirdWire series of sims.
Marcelo - For the excellent Su-27.
Mustang - For the great video tutorials.
To my fellow Combatace moderators - For helping me beta test and work out bugs.
Any errors or mistakes are entirely mine.
 
 
What you will need first:
 
Copy of SFP1/WOE/WOV patched to the latest standard (as of 28 Jan 08)
 
Marcfighters excellent Su-27 located here: http://marcfighters.combatace.com/Aircrafts.htm
 
Drdoyos Navy Flanker Skins (Optional): http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...p;showfile=5241
 
 
 
Notes and limitations.
 
These are only visual changes, no changes were made to the flight model other than the addition of independent control thrust vectoring.
 
The Su-33 loadout.ini wasn't changed (I didn't have time), but the data, cockpit and avionics inis have been changed to allow the carrage of AG weapons, including the Moskit ASM missile.
 
The canards and pylons will pattern their colors after the bmps you put in the Aircraft folder...which means they won't change if you use a different texture and so might look weird.
 
This whole thing was done as a lark, to take a break from my T-38 and weapons work. As such, I am pretty much done with dealing with it...so don't expect a whole lot of support from me for this one.
 
This is FREEWARE only, NO money is allowed to be made on the contents of these files, in whole or in part.
 
Feel free to redistribute this file only, everything else belongs to someone else and is not freely redistributable.

F-4ES Super Phantom II
This is a representation of the Super Phantom being worked on at the end of the Phantom era. It was an attempt to extend the life of this jet, but was scrapped because of the F-14 Tomcat becoming operational.
 
======================
 
1. This mod is an addon jet, known as the F-4ES. I used Jennifer's F-4E IDF and Marc Silva's F-4E 2000 data files, adding some of the latest mods such as open canopy and landing lights.
 
2. NationName is changed back to USAF.
 
3. Chaff/Flares/Jammer added. Note that F-4Es delivered to Israel before the Yom Kippur War did not have countermeasures installed. During the War, replacement F-4Es from US stocks came with their ECM equipment. Some IDF Phantoms were also upgraded during the conflict.
 
4. The skin the base USAF camo skin is the stock SFP1 skin. It takes any F-4E skin.
 
5. Canopy fix by "The Wrench".
 
6. Uprated J79-GE-10B engines, which also featured improvements to eliminate the tendency of the J79 to leave behind a dirty smoke trail, which had proven a liability in combat.
 
7. Loading and Loadout screens were done by Doghouse.
 
8. The Loadout file is the one done by SuperCharger and Doghouse as the coop mod used in multiplay. It uses stock weapons and is totally Multiplay safe.
However, this addon jet is not unless the other players have it as well.
 
9: The landing lights mod by dfang and Russo has been included and is already installed.
 
10: New radar includes a terrain avoidance radar as well.
 
11 This aircraft takes a little longer to load up in the game. Be patient, it's well worth the extra few seconds.
 
12 Please don't credit me with this aircraft. I've done nothing but to have taken all the various mods and work of others, put it all together and repackaged the product. If you want to credit anyone, credit those I've mentioned above. And to those of you who I've neglected to mention, please accept my apologies, it wasn't intentional. Also, anyone wanting to mod this work further go right ahead. Don't bother asking permission because it's already given. I give this jet to the SFP1/WOV/WOE/WOI cmmunity to play with and have fun, it now belongs to you.
