SF2 NorthAtlantic "Top Gun" Themed Hi-Res 1920x1080 Menu Screens and Music!

SF2 NorthAtlantic "Top Gun" Themed Hi-Res 1920x1080 Menu Screens and Music v7
By Viper 05/17/2020
Note: I removed all the nation sounds from this Menu packs for size reasons. If you intend to install the "VIPER63A HQ Menu Sounds" pack, please install that pack first. Installing the HQ Sound pack over the Menu pack may overwrite some of the menu specific music files. You can always re-install this menu pack to get the menu specific theme music back.
I've seen some very nice screens in 1920x1080 mode, so I thought I'd give it try. So here is my "Top Gun" contribution! Special thanks to Homefies and Spectre8750 for their contributions that led me here...
This mod includes custom "Top Gun" themed menu screens, pilots and music. I used the MENU INI files to reuse the music files for different menus. This reduces the size of the package as I don't have duplicates of the same music files for different menus. You should unzip the file and preview the new screens before installing them. I recommend doing this as there are MANY alternate screens I have in there that you might like better.
If you choose to install these screens, I recommend that you back up your FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders in the SF2 Mod folder you're installing this mod into. Just in case you want to go back to your original setup.
To install, simply unzip and copy the uncompressed FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder.

StrikeFighter2 World War II Pacific Theater (PTO) Hi-Res 1920x1080 Menu Screens and Music! Version 3
By Viper63a
StrikeFighter2 World War II PTO Hi-Res Alternate 1920x1080 Menu Screens and Music!
By Viper
I just recently downloaded the "All inclusive SF2 Pacific Theater Operations" (PTO) package from the A-Team site. Excellent package, but the menus were not to my liking...soooo...I upgraded them. These menu screens are tailored for that package, but it should work for any SF2 game with a Pacific WWII theme!
You should unzip the file and preview the new screens before installing them. I recommend doing to see if you like the screens before installing them.
If you choose to install these screens, I recommend that you back up (make a copy of) your FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders in the SF2 Mod folder you're installing this mod into. Just in case you want to go back to your original setup.
To install, simply unzip and copy the uncompressed FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder.
To remove, simply delete the FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders and rename the copies you made to FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders.
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win97\10 64-bit would be something like...

SF2 Vietnam Hi-Res 1024x768 Menu Screens and Music!
By Viper63a
SF2 Vietnam Hi-Res 1024x768 Menu Screens and Music!
By Viper
Special thanks to Homefies and Spectre8750 for their contributions that led me here...
This mod includes custom "Vietnam Era" themed menu screens, pilots and music. God willing, this is the final version!
What's new?
1) Cut and looped the menu music so they are smaller and loops nicely in the menu.
2) Entended the loading wav so the sound doesn't cut out while the game is trying to load all the mods (LOL).
3) Updated and completedly redid the Stock and Expanded Vietnam Campaign screens (More of this later).
4) Changed, added and updated some of the menu screens! I can never leave well enough alone...sorry.
5) PLus a couple of easter eggs...well not much of an easter egg...it's on the first screen...
Campaign screens: There are two new folders in the package. 1) Campaigns and 2) !Optional...
1) The "Campaigns" folder contain new images for the Vietnam Campaigns. This is optional, but I think they look better when in Campaign mode...
2) The "!Optional" folder contain new images and INI files for the Vietnam Expand Air and Ground War. Read the "Read-Me" in that folder for more detail.
Un-compress the package and browse the content. As usual, there are alot of alternate screens you may like better. If you choose to install these screens, I recommend that you back up your CAMPAIGN, FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders in the SF2 Mod folder you're installing this mod into. Just in case you want to go back to your original setup.
To install, simply unzip and copy the uncompressed CAMPAIGN, FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder. If you have the "Expanded Vietnam Air & Ground War" Package installed, take a look and copy the CAMPAIGNS folder in the "!Optional" folder into your mod folder as well. Don't forget to back up before loading any mods!

SF2 - Menu (UI) Expansion
By Eagle114th
Eagle114th's SF2 Menu (UI) Expansion v1.2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a second version of SF2 UI Expansion mod. If you face any bugs or problems, please inform me.
The purpose of this mod is to expand / improve the SF2 UI. In the first version, it does two things:
1) Change the aircraft list when displaying the list. Aircraft list are sorted by nation first. There are three versions:
a. Version #1: Nations’ multi-branches are combined, so you’ll see (USN / USMC) A-4s or (RN / RAF) F-4Ks as an example. If aircraft have skins for a multi-nations, it will have ‘>>’ at end of aircraft name.
b. Version #2: There are both symbol ‘>’ and ‘>>’. For any aircraft that is used by multi-branches, will use ‘>’, while any aircraft with skins for a multi nations will have ‘>>’ at the end of name.
c. Version #3: Same as version 2 with simplified year tag. Instead of (19XX), it will show as ‘XX.
2) RWR and RADAR being displayed on the screen, there are 4 versions:
a. Version #1: RWR + RADAR upper right corner
b. Version #2: RWR + RADAR upper left corner
c. Version #3: RWR (upper left corner) + RADAR (upper right corner)
d. Version #4: RADAR (upper left corner) + RWR (upper right corner)
Plans for next version:
- New menu + GUI (WIP)
- Make smaller version of RWR + RADAR
- If time permits, will work on ordinance list, so they will be sorted by type of ordinance before the name.
The feedback are always appreciated! ENJOY!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION:
Note: This mod is covers all aircraft in SF2 with all expansion pack and DLCs.
(AIRCRAFT)
1) MAKE A BACK UP COPY OF AIRCRAFT folder in Strike Fighters Project 2 mod directory. It can be found in this directory: SF2 (Main folder) -> Objects -> Aircraft
2) In Aircraft Sorting List folder, choose one of three versions, and then copy and drop Objects folder in SF2 mod main directory.

Screen Overhaul - (1920 x 1080)
By Eagle114th
Strike Fighter Project 2 – Screen Overhaul v1.2 Customizable Edition
The new version of SF2 Screen Overhaul 1.2 is now released. Here is the following screen this mod completely overhaul:
- Main screen
- Single mission screen
- Mission editor screen
- Hangar (Default) screen
- Loadout screen
- Planning screen
- Roster screen
- Campaign screen
- Campaign editor screen
- Pilot records screen
- Options screen
It does not yet cover another screen. It is work in progress (WIP) for now. What I am seeking for is feedback that will help me improving the mod further. It is one of my biggest projects I ever worked on for SF2. It gave me opportunity to grow a new skill I enjoy doing.
NOTE: Now that SF2 Screen Overhaul is becoming a customizable version. If you make any mods that adds or change anything to this mod, please add my name and mod name to your credit part.
You can contact me by PM in CombatAce (I am known as Eagle114th there) or Strike fighter series Discord chat (My username is Magic Dragon, so you can find me there too.)
Version 1.2 NOTES:
Buttons customization instruction:
In Menu folder (SF2 mod folder), you will see various SF2 screen named as “BUTTONS_HANGAR, MAIN, OPTIONS, etc...), there are folders for each button. In order, to change the color of buttons, go to one of button folder, you will see different folders for various color. Copy the file from there and overwrite the files in any BUTTONS_(SCREEN) folder.
For example, in BUTTONS_HANGAR, if I want to change the color of “LOADOUT” square button to blue; I go to the folder “LOADOUT”, then “Blue” folder, copy the files: LOADOUT0.bmp, LOADOUT1.bmp, and LOADOUT2.bmp. Then I paste (Overwrite) the files in BUTTONS_HANGAR.
Screens and Buttons customization Templates
In different “BUTTONS_(different screen names)”, there are folder “_Templates’. You can use it to change the designs, colors, or anything you want to do with the screen background or buttons.
This mod uses a font known as Orbitron. I included it in _Fonts folder.
I want to express my sincerely big THANKS to Menrva, Wrench, UllyB, Daddyairplanes, Wilches, JosefK, FalonCAF, and everyone else in CombatAce community for making this possible. You all have been a huge help.
Because of Operation Desert Storm 30 years anniversary great mod, I was able to study the codes on how SF2 menu work, which led me into developing new menu for SF2. This mod is truly fun to fly in SF2. If anyone hasn’t tried it yet, I highly recommend it.
There are detailed instruction that explains how to install in the proper ways in README file. LEASE READ IT BEFORE INSTALLING!
I included the plans for the next version in the readme too.
The feedback are always welcomed!

Wings Over World Menu Screens
By Menrva
Wings Over World Menu Screens
January 13th, 2019 (1st Release)
by Menrva
>For Strike Fighters 2 games
This package is my personal conversion of the beautiful Strike Fighters: Project One menu screens, with a number of enhancements for use in Strike Fighters 2. The main menu screen is a reworked version of the NACA Main Screen released by Camouflage (Checksix-fr.com). The title I chose for the main menu screen is "Strike Fighters: Wings Over World", in honor of the old WOE/WOV/WOI series of SF1 games. I find this name suitable for those who have a large mod folder spanning different world scenarios.
Here below a quick summary of enhancements and additions:
-All the music tracks from the SF games have been included; now there's a unique track for each screen.
-Hangar Screen has got the hangar noise sounds which were present in the SF1 games.
-Option to turn Lens Flare off as in the SF1 games is back.
-Opportunity to change pilot at the Campaign Screen is reintroduced, as in the SF1 games.
-Briefing Screen has been reintroduced for eye-candy (it has a small string "bug" with certain missions, since ThirdWire's removal of the FAC mission type).
-Added generic _briefing.ini files for all the stock SF2 terrains (terrains without a _briefing.ini file might cause CTDs when accessing the Briefing Screen).
-Added the missing PILOTPIC25 bitmap which is available in the SF1 games.
-Loading Screen shows a generic runway and a new, longer loading sound is used.
-Mission Editor DLC is supported with a new screen in the same style of the other screens.
-Campaign Customizer DLC is supported with a new screen in the same style of the other screens.
-Disabled unnecessary functions of the the System Menu, such as accessing ThirdWire's online site for viewing the game manual.
As a bonus, the package includes 42 single missions taking place across all theatres of the SF2 series; most of them have been made by ThirdWire and released in their SF1 games. Five single missions are Instant Action scenarios of Strike Fighters 2, which I converted to be choosable and playable in the Single Missions Screen. Additional missions include historical scenarios created by guyran for the Israel theater. I renamed all single missions to use a nicer naming convention. Needless to say, all SF2 titles must be installed to be able to play all the missions.
In addition, I have tweaked some Flight folder files to improve the realism of the game's HUD and in-game map. Since users may not like such changes, those files are not included by default, they must be installed manually. They can be found inside the "(Additional Tweaks)" folder. Here below a quick summary of changes they bring:
-Disabled all the unuseful Labels when viewing the in-game map.
-Disabled the arcade cones; lock your target and press F4 to visually track it.
-Tweaked icons' colours so that they match the text's colours.
-The in-game text background is less noticeable.
-Text's font is now different, it is generally smaller and less obtrusive.
-No more red and blue arcade squares when locking objects on; a faint yellow square is now used.
-The white triangle showing the next waypoint is now a faint yellow, unlike the default strong white.
-Disabled the radar box display; check the radar of your plane's cockpit, instead.
>Credits (in no particular order):
-ThirdWire, for the fantastic menu screens which are included in the stock SFP1 game.
-kout, for the System Menu icon I have taken from his SF1 Grey Main Menu Replacement mod.
-Camouflage, for the NACA Main Screen (still available at the archives of Checksix-fr.com), which I have reworked.
-HomeFries, for the planning map enhancements available in his Semi-Transparent Map Icons package.
-Viper63a, for the Loading sound, which I got from one of his menu mods.
-paulopanz, for collecting and updating guyran's WOI custom missions properly to SF2 standards.
-guyran, for the original custom missions he created for Wings Over Israel.
-KJakker, for his interest and welcome support.
>Disclaimer:
This is a freeware; yet it can be redistributed ONLY in other CombatACE mods/mod packages.
Any changes to the package's files and/or any copy-and-paste attempts of their contents are NOT authorized if you plan to release them in other mods. But permission might be granted to those who request it to me at CombatACE.
This mod may NOT in any way, shape or form be used in any payware additions.

SF2 Area 51 Test Pilot Hi-Res 1024x768 Menu Screens!
By Viper63a
SF2 Area 51 Test Pilot Hi-Res 1024x768 Menu Screens!
By Viper
So, I do a lot of mod testing, I hate testing a new mod on an existing install I play on, so I have a dedicated install using the Nellis Terrain pack for testing new mods. This is the menu screens I use for that install. However, you can use these screens for any SF2 series if you like.
1) Creating a new mod install...First, you need to create a new Tester Mod game and folder. You can use any SF2 Series Game as a base. In your install folder (the merged Thirdwire folder), copy and renamed "StrikeFighter2 Europe" (exe and ini file) to "StrikeFighter2 Area51" (I used "StrikeFighter2 Europe" for my tester base - you don't have to). Run it to create the "Saved Game" mod folder.
2) Unzip and copy the uncompressed FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders from this package to your new StrikeFighter2 mod folder.
My StrikeFighter2 mod folder on Win7 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...
C:\Users\<your_id>\Saved Games\Thirdwire\StrikeFighter2 Area51\
3) To remove the new mod folder, just delete it and you're done. If you want to reset your tester install, rerun "StrikeFighter2 Area51" and copy the menus back into the reset mod folder.
4) Test more mods in a new clean tester install...
Enjoy!

Note: I removed all the nation sounds from this Menu packs for size reasons. If you intend to install the "VIPER63A HQ Menu Sounds" pack, please install that pack first. Installing the HQ Sound pack over the Menu pack may overwrite some of the menu specific music files. You can always re-install this menu pack to get the menu specific theme music back.
This mod includes custom "vietnam Era" themed menu screens, pilots and (w/ 60s) music. You should unzip this package and preview the new screens before installing them. I recommend doing this as there are MANY alternate screens I have in there that you might like better.
1) Backup (copy) your FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folder. I "highly" recommend that you (if you can) "RENAME" your Menu folder and let this mod create a new Menu folder for you. If you had installed any other menu mods, that may conflict with this Menu mod.
2) To install, simply unzip and copy the uncompressed FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder. Don't forget to back up before loading any mods!
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win10 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...

Medals Pack for SF2: WW2 Finland
This pack is intended to complement The Dev A-Team's all-inclusive mod Strike fighters 2 WW2 Finland, dedicated to the aerial campaigns over the Gulf of Finland and the Barents Sea during the Winter War and Continuation War. You are given here extensive lists of awards with related medals and citations, and a handful of minor assets (alternative lists of ranks, counters, etc). Of course, all of this work could also complement ShrikeHawk's mod about The Continuation War, available at CombatAce's downloads for SF2.
Three Medals lists have actually been designed for the Finns, the first one related to the Winter War (1939-40), the second to the first part of the Continuation War (1941-42), the third to its last part (1943-44). The earlier lists grant much more lenient criteria to be awarded the same distinctions you could also receive after 1942 spending more sweat, but above all prevent you to receive awards unavailable before they were established. For instance, besides harsher requirements, the 1943-44 list adds the Order of the Lion of Finland, established by the end of 1942, and also makes a few German decorations available when the Nazis at bay tried to forge closer ties with their loose co-belligerent.
In the same way of thinking, two Medals lists are provided for the Soviets, 1939-42 and 1943-45 (several older designs before 1943, many new orders established mid-42 and awarded by 1943, harsher requirements for awarding after 1943). Of course, the WW2 Soviet packs could be used with The Dev A-Team's all-inclusive mod for SF1 Wings over Russia, and for any mods involving the Soviet Air Forces during WW2.
You’ll just have to juggle with national Medals Lists according to the period of the War when you plan to start your campaigns. Regarding these lists, everything has been especially designed, when swapping files during an extensive career, for the decorations you were awarded with an older list both to be preserved with original look and citations, and not to be awarded a second inappropriate time thereafter. Don’t worry, everything is meticulously explained with several examples in my notes.
As you can notice on the screenshots, I chose to have the citations display the decorations’ names in original language without subtitle. Who can read Finnish here, raise your hand? Be easy, the awards you deserved are still announced in English on the Debrief Screen, and listed in English on your pilot’s Medal List Screen.
Finnish Air Force
Mannerheim Cross (2nd Class) *
Order of the Cross of Liberty (2nd, 3rd & 4th Classes)
Order of the Cross of Liberty (2nd, 3rd & 4th Classes with Oak Leaf) *

Modern Russian Federation Medals Pack
This pack is mostly intended to complement other works (campaigns) that YOU modder would like to design, involving the post-Cold War Russian Air Force as a flyable belligerent. Like my recent Medals Pack for Modern Ukraine, it allows campaign modders to explore both sides of local conflicts in the Black Sea / Sea of azov areas (using PFunk’s Black Sea 2.0a map). But it could also be used in modern what-if campaigns designed on many other maps bordering the Russian Federation (North Cape, Kamchatka, Korea/Manchuria...). And the recent involvement of President Putin's pilots in Syria (October 2015) gives new opportunities of campaigns where this pack could prove useful.
The complete list of your available decorations is displayed here. Two panels have actually been designed, one for the Russian Federation before 2010 and one thereafter. While my work focuses on Russia’s conspicuous second wind in the 2010s, it seemed important to reflect the changes that happened on that year: not only did the Russian Air Force’s aircraft begin to display a new design for its insignias (the three-coloured star, see below), but also the Russian system of awards underwent large reforms in September 2010, with design and/or purpose of several orders and medals completely modified.
Russian Federation Air Force
Gold Star of Hero of the Russian Federation (2 possible awards)
Order of St. George (4th Class)
[available only in the post-2010 pack]
Order For Merit to the Fatherland
(3rd & 4th Classes, each one awarded only once in turn)

SF2 New Hangar, Loading, and Loadout Screens for F/A-18A/B/C/D Version 2.0
By Viper 2015/08/06
These are upgraded/Alternate Hangar, Loading, Loadout Screens for The Hornet Team's F/A-18A/B/C/D Version 2.0 package and new <Aircraft>.ini files to read them. It was released by Dave and can be downloaded here. If the The Hornet Team team saw fit to add this to their pack, I would be grateful.
FA-18 Series Update by The Hornet Team 2.0
http://combatace.com/files/file/15259-fa-18-series-update-by-the-hornet-team/
These replaces/adds to The Hornet Team's package (STOCK ONLY) released on 11 Jan 2015. This (my) package DOES NOT include any LODs or other files from the Hornet team. It does include a new <AirCraft>.ini files so the right screens are read for display.
First!!! Always backup F/A-18s in your "...\Objects\Aircraft" folder. To install, copy the new "Airctaft" folder into your mod "Objects" folder. Overwrite and you're done.
Enjoy!

The screens and sounds are more to "my" liking, nothing wrong with Do335's screens, just my preference and more friendly on the ears when wearing a headset. Download the pack, take a look and listen...let me know what you think.

SF2 Upgraded F-16 Hangar, Loading and Loadout screens for F-16 Mod Packs By the Viper Team!
By Viper63a
SF2 Upgraded F-16 Hangar, Loading and Loadout screens for F-16 Mod Packs By the Viper Team!
By Me (No relations to the Viper Team!)
This is my upgraded F-16 Hangar, Loading and Loadout screens for most excellent F-16 Mods from "The Viper Team"'s (and one from dtmdragon - ADF) F-16 Mod packs. What I did was downloaded the F-16 packs from here...
http://combatace.com/files/category/666-f-16/
Then I combined them up. Upgraded all the Hangar, Loading, Loadout screen files. Then deleted everything but the Hangar, Loading, Loadout screen files to keep the folder structure. In theory, you should be able to copy my pack into your SF2 Mod folder, BUT I CAN'T RECOMMEND THAT since I don't know what F-16 you installed or how.
* Why did I do this?
I must be OCD, but I like all my Hangar and Loading screens to have the same format. I tried to match most of the plane to actual pix of planes for the Hangar and Loading screen. In many of the cases, I has to use generic planes because I could not find a decent picture of the plane.
Ok, this install is abit more complicated than my other mod/update/upgrades, but it's worth it. Well it was worth it for me.
* What is included in this pack:
*HANGAR.JPG
*LOADING.JPG
*LOADOUT.TGA
*NOTHING ELSE, NO LODS, SKINS, INIs....etc.
* What is changed:
Upgrades F-16 Hangar, Loading and Loadout screens in "...\Objects\Aircraft" only!
Installation:
* BEFORE YOU OVERWRITE ANYTHING - BACKUP!!!!
1) Sniper approach...
Take a look in my "*\To_Mod_Folder\Objects\Aircraft" folder. If you see a plane you have and want to upgrade with my screens, copy the screen files, one at a time, to your plane in your SF2 "...\Objects\Aircraft" Mod folder.
2) Shotgun approach...
Backup your SF2 ""...\Objects\Aircraft" mod folder, and then copy the contents of my "To_Mod_Folder" folder to your SF2 mod folder. If you don't have the plane I have, you will just get some extra folders in your SF2 mod folder and waste some space. If something goes nuts, then you have your backup? Right?
That's pretty much it...If I can sell (free, not money or anything - LOL) "The Viper Team" on these screens, it would just come "The Viper Team'S" F-16 packs...LOL, not pushing anything...just wishing. Love your work!!
------------------------------------------
Credits to "the Viper Team" for their Excellent F-16 Mods. Also and again, I have no associations with the Viper Team. We jut share the name and the admiration for F-16s - that is all.
Enjoy!
