SF2 WW2 PTO D3A1 Val Pak


SF2 WW2 D3A1 "Val" Dive Bomber

 

-- Something for the PTO players --

 

= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =

 

*There is a distinct possibility that this mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, due to the excessive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment.*

 

This is a compilation of all my work for Pasko's D3A1 Val. It is designed to replace ALL the previously released versions. So, be advised.

There is one aircraft in the pack with a multitude of skins:

 

IJN Carriers at Pearl Harbor (all 6)

IJN Carriers at Midway (all 4)

IJN mid-late war (carrier AND Land Based, 1 each)

 

12 skin/decal sets in all. Numbering is as historically accurate as days and weeks of research can determine (including work for the original release some years ago)

 

A semi-compliant SF2 Flight Model has been cobbled together, but it REALLLLLLY do needs further fine tuning by experts. I'm NOT happy at all with it; somebody PLEASE make the necessary adjustments. (do we have a begging smilie??)

 

All skins are jpg format. Decal randomization is set to TRUE, but this may NOT be historically correct; Squadron and Flight leaders used 3, 2 and 1 color bands on the tail to identify themselves. With randomizaion set TRUE, the No.1 Bird will be 'whatever' is chosen by the GameEngine ™. Research has shown the Squadron Commander (and suboritinate Flight leaders) tended to 'lead from the front', so if the randomization is bothersome, simply edit the required inis, and remove it.

 

SF2 versions of the old 'box art' Hangar and Loading screens are included.

Sounds, weapons, etc and so forth are included. As a bonus, I finally figured out the canopy animation, so use Shift/0 to open and close the cockpit window. Wingfold however, is NOT working as that was never built into the LOD. SF2NA Carrier Based Statements have been adjusted to suit.

 

As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. Information on the 'bombbay' is interestering to note!

All readmes from the original releases, and re-releases are included where discoverable from the archives.

 

Happy Hunting!
