----------------------------------------------------------
STRIKE FIGHTER 2: AVIONICS COMMUNITY PACK (SF2: ACP) v0.4
----------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to SF2: ACP first release of alpha. Before I explain about the pack, I want to express big thank to the wonderful communities and modders of Combatace and Combat Flight Sim Tavern (Discord), including Thirdwire for the simulation.
You all are the reasons why this pack exists. I want to use the passions to improve SF2 into next level with avionics.
This requires a lot of research, reading flight manual, and tons of tweaking the texture, and avionics and cockpit ini, along with countless of testing in-flight in SF2.
The mods is not perfect, we do our best with the mods. We do it with the joys of our hobbies!
This pack includes the following features:
- New gunsight / optical sight
- New texture for radar, RWR, and another avionic equipment
- Improved cockpit and radar through cockpit and avionics ini tweaks for semi-realism (See note #2)
- Improves glass texture (If possible)
- Accessibility - Optional, includes the AAM firing cue on gunsight for people who can not hear the sounds of missile locking on targets.
- Improved night lights inside cockpits
- Tweaks to the view angle around cockpit
NOTE #1: As mentioned in note #1, due to little resources (Information / data) on early cold war era radar, at least half or most of tweaks are based on an educated guess. For exampe, AN/APG-33 radar that is used with E-1 FCS in F-89B and C, there are some data on it, but no data on elevator nor azimuth angle limitation.
----------------------------------------------------------
----------------- HISTORICAL VS FICTIONAL ----------------
----------------------------------------------------------
Avionics overhaul for Historical vs fictional aircraft
I am dong overhaul for both historical and 'what if' fictional aircraft.
For example, in this alpha version, there are avionics overhaul for F-8A to F-8K, along with France F_8s. It also includes 'what if' JASDF F-8EJ Crusader.
----------------------------------------------------------
---------------------- INSTALLATION ----------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
There are readme inside each aircraft folder, please read the instruction to install the mods.
NOTE: There is a folder "_OPTIONAL - RWR", by default, RWR always have texture. If you want TW style version of RWR, you can replace the RWR with the provided RWR texture from that folder.
----------------------------------------------------------
------------- GUNSIGHT / OPTICAL SIGHT SYSTEM ------------
----------------------------------------------------------
The new version of SF - CAP now have new gun system (texture and MILs)
From now on, all guns have texture of 512 x 512, which is 150 MILs.
In order, to use the new gunsight / optical sight, you MUST set MILs to 150 in cockpit.ini or ImageSize=0.2025 in avionics (HUD)
When I created the optical sights, I measured the MILs of gunsight by pixels
For example
512 pixel width is 150 MILs
For example:
For 100 / 50 / 25 MILs, it is 341 / 171 / 85 pixels
----------------------------------------------------------
------------------- TEMPLATES SITUATION ------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
Due to steer size of projects, I am more focused on creating texturs for avionics overhaul. It is taking a lot of my time and I rather to focus and finish the projects in time.
Therefore, from SF - CAP v0.4 onward, it no longer have TEMPLATE folder. And to add, with the new gunsight / optical sight, it requires new templates too.
However, if any of you want the templates for certain aircraft's avoinics, you can contact me by posting in SF - CAP thread or PM me in CombatAce.
I can clean up the mess in the templates and send it to you to use for modding SF2.

Hello everyone,
I have a questionsa bout [HUD] as I am stil trying to figure what I am trying to do;
SARH version of SRM codes (SymbolType=TD_HEAT)? I do not know the sSymbolType for SAR, so I would like to ask anyone for this information.
For example, with the SRM I have (for IRM) in avionics.ini, under [HUD] group of codes:
It works when the IRM have the locks on target. However, what I would like is an additional codes for SARH version.
Thank you and have a great day!

Would some sort of gunsight on the earlier Nieuports be a good idea? I am not sure if the N11 cockpit in the picture is an upgraded N11 from later in the war.

Hi everyone,
I was wondering how to customize the numbers after your callsigns, since it always gives me the same ones.
I think i managed somehow once, a bit of time ago, but now i forgot and have no idea how to.
I'm not talking about how to customize the callsign name, but the unit number after it.
As you can see in the Roster and in the picture under, i get "Fast Eagle 1-1" and "Fast Eagle 1-2"
Here are some examples:
The numbers on the tail, wing and nose numbers are customized, cause i managed how to change them, choosing them individually for each unit in the mission file by changing "AircraftNumber=" and typing the number, like "2" (as for 202). It doesn't change by typing the whole number tho, like 202 by typing 202, but it goes by typing the number that corresponds to the list of numbers you have. For example, In a list that goes from 200 to 400, you will have to type 10 to get 300. Here i just typed "2" and "7" since the list starts from 200
IIRC, in the past i just used to type the Aircaft number just like that, and in-game i had the proper number after the callsign, like "Fast Eagle 102", not just the number displayed on the plane livery.
How do i do? I'm pretty sure that it's possible to have "Fast Eagle 102" on my screen HUD and in the Roster
Thanks in advance for helping me.
