About This File
Introduction
I have made new skins for the Canadair CF-104 Starfighter. These skins show all the normal Royal Canadian Air Force/Canadian Armed Forces CF-104 schemes. Fuel tanks are included. Aircraft.ini files removing TK's CF-104 skins are also included.
Skins
The following skins are provided:
- CF-104
- RCAF Natural Metal (Canada-based)
- RCAF Natural Metal (Germany-based)
- RCAF Natural Metal post-1965 (Canada-based)
- RCAF Natural Metal post-1965 (Germany-based)
- CAF Natural Metal (Canada-based)
- CAF Natural Metal (Germany-based)
[*]CF-104_72
- CAF Natural Metal (Canada-based)
- CAF Natural Metal (Germany-based)
- CAF Green
- CAF Symmetrical Natural Metal (Canada-based)
- CAF Symmetrical Natural Metal (Germany-based)
- CAF Symmetrical Green
[*]CF-104_76
- CAF Symmetrical Natural Metal (Canada-based)
- CAF Symmetrical Natural Metal (Germany-based)
- CAF Symmetrical Green
- CAF Symmetrical Camo
I have provided 20 serial numbers. Anyone wishing to make additional serials will find PSD templates, and the RCAF font in the extra's folder. Use 22-point for pre-unification serials, 16-point for unification serials, and 48-point for buzz numbers.
I have also included fuel tank templates which I have created.
No instructions or files have been added to make the CF-104 flyable, however plenty is available on combatace.com on this subject. What works for the F-104G will work for the CF-104. I recommend making the aircraft ini files read only.

Changes
Removed CAF Green from CF-104, removed scratches from all skins, adjusted specular, glossiness and reflection values on natural metal skins, added SM files to natural metal skins. Fixed decals to remove white borders.
Installation Instructions
Copy the contents of "ModFolder" into your mod folder. Over-write where necessary.
