+ST0RM Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 STORM: I'll have SF2-folderized verions of the weapons this evening. I am curious as to why the weapons weren't working on your install, though. What patch level are you at? Eric Howes SF2 w/Jun 2010 patch. Quote
+eburger68 Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) Folks: As promised, here are the Weapons in SF2-folderized format: https://netfiles.uiu...F82_Weapons.rar Installation is simple. Delete your current Weapons folder. Unpack, and drop the new Weapon folder in its place. If you encounter bugs or missing items, pleae let me know. This updated Weapons collection will be included in the full updated version of the mod that we are planning to release. Eric Howes Edited December 30, 2010 by eburger68 Quote
+dtmdragon Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Nation markings/decals not showing up on Argentinean A-4’s during campaigns. They show up correctly in single missions however. screenshot with missing nation decals Quote
+eburger68 Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 dtmdragon: Thanks for the report. The attached ZIP contains fixes for the A-4 nation decals. Drop the included folders in the \Objects\Aircraft directory of your Mods Folder. These fixes will be included in the complete update we have planned. Eric Howes A-4_Decals.zip Quote
+DWCAce Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Just found this! Looks like I'll have to get this baby installed in the next few days Quote
luk1978 Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Happy New Year to everybody, and many thanks for this great mod. Played Falklands1982 on SFP1 for last 2 years, but never heard about porting it to SF2. That's a great Christmas gift. Tried to play campaign with Bataliуn de Aviaciуn de Combate 601 (Stanley Airfield, 21 May 1982 ) , but everytime my first mission starts at 25, April on Comodoro Rivadavia Air Base. That's because of typo in Malvinas1.ini. "[ArgentinaUnit007]" ID is actually 23, not 22. Fixed, now everything works like a charm. Also, i repainted some terrain and water tiles. With Paladrian's waternormal map, Malvinas became just an eye candy! P.S. Sorry for my bad English... it's not my native language. Quote
+elephant Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 (edited) Nice waters there luk1978! Do you mind sharing your terrain repaints? Here is my own new Sea Harrier loading screen: Happy New Year to you too! Edited January 1, 2011 by elephant 1 Quote
+eburger68 Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 luk1978: Thanks for reporting that bug, which will be corrected in the planned update. Eric Howes Quote
luk1978 Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Hi, elephant! I saw your screen in th screenshot thread. Good old SF can show amazingly beautiful pics sometimes. Never heard about term "Black Death" before. But yesterday I read about Falklands/Malvinas war, so now I know what does it mean. Your screen just in time. I will send you a PM about repaints. Quote

FALLSCHIRMJAGER Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) Never heard about term "Black Death" before. But yesterday I read about Falklands/Malvinas war, so now I know what does it mean. Hi, I'm sorry to off-topic, but the term "Black Death" was never used by the Argentine pilots. It's just a figment of the British tabloid propaganda. That is a myth and much depends on the version you read. Sorry for the off topic and thanks for including my work on this mod Regards --------------------------------------------------- Hola, siento mucho hacer off-topic, pero el término "Muerte negra" nunca fué usado por los pilotos argentinos. Es sólo un invento de la propaganda sensacionalista británica. Éso es un mito y depende mucho de la versión que se lea. Disculpen el off topic y gracias por incluir mi trabajo en este mod Un cordial saludo Edited January 2, 2011 by FALLSCHIRMJAGER Quote

Anyway my knowledge about Malvinas war are not so broad. But I've read another version about "la muerta negra". This may be interesting. Sorry for the offtop. Quote

2ltJoch Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 very nice mod, just played through a few missions. great job. Quote
TerceraEscuadrilla Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) I like water repainted. I have a personal suggestion and I don't know if you can comply. I don't know the permissions that are needed. It is possible to replace the Dagger of Mod by Nesher Israel's Strike Fighters 2 with torno camos? are very historical camos like the Nesher, would be a step forward in quality and history. Leave some pictures for comparison. Camos Personally I consider perfect. Sorry Eric, I read this message too late... lol Folks: I've started a topic for proposed fixes and updates for this mod.

+eburger68 Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) TerceraEscuadrilla: It's a nice set of skins, no doubt. The problem is that using them would completely change the installation requirements for the mod. Players would need an install of SF2I. Whether SF2I alone would work with the mod, I don't know. We'd have to go through the TYPES.INI and TARGETS.INI to check that every terrain structure being used was also in SF2I. If there were any missing structures, then the installation requirements would become SF2 or SF2V plus SF2I. Whatever the case, it would not be a trivial change. Edit: A few more thoughts. What we could do is offer the Nesher-based Dagger (sans the LODs) as an "optional" install within the installation package, somewhat like we do with various things in the SF2V Expansion Pack. There would be an optional IAI Dagger directory with the all the necessary bits (again, minus the LODs) for folks who have SF2I. We would supply simple instructions for swapping out the default Dagger with the Nesher-based Dagger. It would really be a matter of: 1) move or delete the default Dagger; 2) drop the new one in.

pyro Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 I'd just like to take second to say thanks to all those concerned with the creation of this mod, its an absolute blast. What with being away for holidays and other real life stuff I've only just downloaded and done a quick test. Does anyone have any tips on landing the Sea Harriers on the carriers? I'm finding it nearly impossible. Flight model is set to 'Normal' and I've mapped the thrust vectoring to the slider on my X-52 throttle. I guess it's a question of practice? Lovely Harrier skins BTW Quote
+elephant Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 I would like to have some tips about harrier v landings as I'm hopeless! I watched the AI landing and they seem to follow a standard hook arrest landing patern... Quote

Landing the Harrier I will only say this practice practice practice... then practice some more... gives an idea Quote

Excuseme Jonathan but no KC-130 Argentinean tanker was downed in the Falklands conflict. If so you think you could put any evidence? Regards Edited January 8, 2011 by TerceraEscuadrilla Quote
