About This File
SF2 Egyptian Air Force Macchi Mc-205 (DAT)
= For SF2 (Full4/5 Merged RECCOMENDED + expansion pak 1!)
*Designed for use in the standard/stand alone SF2:I Mods folder*
**Expansion Pak 1 is/may be required as the destroyed model references the stock 3W P-51D Mustang's destroyed model**
***This mod -MAY- work in 1stGen game installs. But this has not/cannot be tested by me. Some (ok many) functions, etc will NOT be available in SF/Wo* . Skins will need conversion to bmp format, etc and so forth. End Users � that attempt to do so, do so at their own risk. No support is/will be available***
This pak contains mods for the Dev A-Teams Mc-205, that recreate the aircraft as used by the EAF in the late 1940s.This is a semi-complete aircraft mod, and as per DAT directives, the aircraft lod is =NOT= included. So, those users that cannot access the DAT downloads, you're advised to skip this, as it's of no use to you. Everything else is included (pretty much!).
Those users with access, =WILL= be transfering the lod from either a seperate DAT download of the Mc-205, or copy/pasting it from their/your Wings Over Africa WW2 Mod (suggested).
This mod has been (re)built and tested with the
Mc-205-R2.LOD (dated 8/30/2010)
from their WW2 Wings Over Africa TC Mod. You WILL need THAT, to copy/paste into THIS
aircraft's folder. You should be able to d/l from their site (seperate aircraft), in the usual manner as well.
*Please Note: this mod has NOT been tested with the seperate aircraft download's LOD, Mc-
205-R1.lod (dated 2/7/2007). However, there is no reason to expect it NOT to work. Your
mileage may vary.*
This package contains 1 (almost) complete aircraft. This is a reissue of my EAF Mc-205 from many moons ago...now, with some improvements!
The skin represents No. 2 Squadron, EAF circa 1948-1950; just in time for the Israeli War of Indepencence. They are in jpg format. All national markings are painted on, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. Serial numbers are accurate, and in Arabic characters. The canopy has been switched to the Standard Animation Keystroke, Shift/0. The 'fake pilot method' has been used to add the underwing pylons. Loadouts have been adjusted (postiioning) accordingly. A 'new' cockpit has been used, one of Stary's WW2 pits (the Italian one). Weapons (Italian bombs and drop tanks) are included; these are SF2 conversions of those from the WoA mod.
The FM is based off the 205 from the Wings Over Africa Total Conversion Mod, and may need further small adjustments. Expecially in the Post May 2013 Patch World.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! All the original DAT readmes are included, for historical and ownership/copyright purposes.
It is HIGHLY suggested you unzip this archive, and READ the install instructions BEFORE installing this mod. So you know EXACTLY what to do..
Good Hunting!

PS: although not exactly a WW2 aircraft (although the WW2 Italian AF used them) I'm placing it here only for convienice of location.
