SBD-3 Dauntless, VS-41 "Operation Torch"

 

Skin and Ini Pak for SF/SFG/WoV/WoE MTO Installs (06 Level ONLY)

 

Version 2

 

This skin represents aircraft from VS-41 "Tophatters" as seen aboard USS RANGER during Operation Torch, the Invasion of North Africa.

 

This is a complete and utter replacement/revamp of a skin I released 2005; it has been completely redone using my

enhanced template, repainted in the proper Non-Specular blue/gray, and has all new decals of the proper font re-created.

 

All new Modex/Plane-in-Group numbers for 18 aircraft, 'generic' BuNums and aircraft type name decals have also been

made. I say 'generic', as they ARE SBD-3 BuNums, but could find no information on the aircraft assigned VS-41 during Torch.

 

A new 'carrier deck' hangar screen, more specific for TORCH, is also included.

 

Included is a modified data ini, with a 1942 start year, for use in a MTO =ONLY= style install. More info is below in the 'To Install' section.

 

-= NOTE: You MUST have the WW2 Weapons Pak from CombatAce to get the WW2 weapons and guns and such =-

 

-== This aircraft has been tested in SF/WoV/WoE 06-patch levels (actually 06 WoE) of the aformentioned sims. It has NOT, however been testing in the SF2 Series. But it if works in 08, it works there, too.. There still are some 'issues' with prop-plane flight models, but there has been a MARKED improvement!! You use it in these Post Patch/SF2 Environments at YOUR own risk ==-

 

As always, it's reccomended you unzip this package to a temp folder or your desktop, or somewhere's else that's easy to find to gain access to the rest of this readme for full, detailed install instructions. It's also required that you actually READ the enclosed readme....

 

Good Hunting!
