Green Hell 3.5


Description:

This is optional high resolution repaint/treemod for SF2:V VietnamSEA map, I call it "Green Hell 3.5" ;)

 

SF2:Vietnam required for Vietnam map (doh!) SF2 all-merged install preferred

made and tested im May 2013 environment

 

-included both 1024x1024 pixels and smaller 512x512 pixels versions for those with older computers

-repainted hangars/base objects from my WW2 hangars pack, fits this particular scenery ok in my opinion

-city textures by Brain32 from his excellent Vietnam repaint, used under freeware license

-full TOD coverage included

 

Installation:

Backup your Vietnam folder, unpack and move/copy new VietnamSEA to your Vietnam folder, overwrite when asked.

 

Legal mumbo jumbo:

Freeware license apply, no to be used as part of any payware

 

have phun

I don't look forward to rating any of Stary's work, if only because every superlative imaginable has already been used up!  Declaring this add-on "Superb", just barely scratches the surface!

funny thing is this tileset just happened out of the curiousity, I was toying with year-old Solomons(v3) tileset and asked myself "what would happen if I'd ran some colour corrections and some filters on this one to make if more vietnamish looking"

 

but hey! I like the results too :smile:

Whoa, trees back in Vietnam - great!

 

Any glitches with the Expansion Pack anybody, yet?

 

The only thing I just noticed, are some layer "problems" with trees (hard/impossible to catch on screenies) - like trees in the distance showing through some nearer ones...

Ideas?

I have an "older rig" and after installing, it loads to 80% and freezes. So unfortunately I can't enjoy it, but love seeing the screenies of other users who are. Looks ABSOLUTELY amazing!

Hi Stary, need some help. I have SF2 Vietnam (not merged with anything else) and cannot get Green Hell 3.5 working. I copy the folder VietnamSEA into the terrains folder, where there is a default file VietnamSEA.

Thanks!

yes you do, and when asked, overwrite the files -of course make first backup of the VietnamSEA folder from your mods installation

 

@Jack: open your VietnamSEA_data.ini and change these values to as shown:

 

[HeightOffset]
LowDetailMesh=-100
WaterMesh=0.8

Thanks Stary, however I think I have not explained myself: In the \Terrains folder there is only a default hugue file "VietnamSEA.cat", nothing else. I don't know how to replace this .cat file with the Green Hell 3.5 folder VietnamSEA.

Maybe I need some previous installation? Or it only works with merged SF2?

 

Thanks again!

nooo!!!!

 

so you want to install this to your installation folder like Drive:\Program Files\Thirdwire\Strike Fighters 2 (for example)

 

BUT mode must go to your Drive:\Users\your username\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Vietnam\Terrains\VietnamSEA\ -for windows 7 for example

Seems like I missed these!

They sound so amazing... I only have one question : are these compatible with the big mod expansion pack?

      SF Vietnam Scooters - v0.95
      ===========================
      *** SF2, SF2V required. Tested in full 5-merged installation ***
      This pack includes 111 Skins for Thirdwires A-4 Skyhawk-models during Vietnam war from 1964 to 1972. It combines the former v0.01 and v0.02 releases into 1 pack.
      The data.inis for the planes itself are changed from the stockfiles (rearranged weaponsstations, added invisible skids for belly-landings, added new droptanks and missilerails, etc.).
      Sometimes a skin is provided for 2 different Skyhawk-models. This is done to represent different changes througout an ongoing deployment:
      - transition from one Skyhawk-variant to another (for example A-4E to A-4F)
      - retrofit of ECM-equipment (Project Shoehorn) (A-4C to A-4C_65, A-4E to A-4E_65, A-4E_65 to A-4E_67)
      - change in Camouflage (VA-155)
      Skins included (Timeframe 1964 to 1972):
      (compl.) means, that skins, for all deployments to Vietnam are finished for a squadron.
      Navy Squadrons:
      VA-12 Flying Ubangis (compl.)

      Unfortunately I failed at finishing this MOD! For different reasons, I decided to not invest any more time into this.
      I hope you can still enjoy this pack. Have fun!
       
      Unpacking and installation:
      ===========================
      !!! IMPORTANT !!!
      !!! I recommend using this pack for a standalone-Vietnam-War MOD-folder, as planes.inis are changed accordingly
      !!! That means, that no exportusers are in userlist.ini
      Backup your A-4B. A-4B_65, A-4C, A-4C_65, A-4E, A-4E_65, A-4E_67 and A-4F planefolders, as .inis will be overwritten
      1. Create a temporary folder, copy all 3 zip-files into that folder and unpack them into this folder (overwrite is ok)
      Info: If you do NOT want to include the changed data.inis to your installation, just go to all planes-folders in the temporary folder (Objects/Aircraft/A-4B, etc.) and delete all ini.files in each planes-folder.
      2. open "Put_Contents_In_Your_MOD_Folder" from the temporary folder and copy the contents you want to your Vietnam-MOD-folder
      3. if asked to overwrite, say 'yes'
      4. Thats it!

      Hi! I'm trying to start building addon campaigns for eburger68's amazing SF2V Air & Ground War Expansion mod. I'm trying to start by making a "red" version of the Easter Offensive campaign called "Red Fiery Summer", where the player is a VPAF pilot in an alternate Easter Offensive where the PAVN/NLF ground forces had air support. The missions would be more varied than the ones in eburger68's own VPAF addon, with strike, recon, and CAS missions in addition to CAP and Intercept.

      If anyone can help me get it set up and working, or at least teach me how to do it, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
      Attached below are my files for the campaign as they currently exist
      Fer_RedFierySummer.INI
      Fer_RedFierySummer_DATA.INI
      Fer_RedFierySummerEnd.TXT
      Fer_RedFierySummerSTART.TXT
