Hey guys!! New here. Just purchased Strike Fighter 2 Vietnam after seeing a bunch of youtube videos, Pleasantly happy I did. Used to fly Strike Fighter and always thought it had the best sense of speed of all and 2 is the same

 

What are the best mods for Vietnam ? And how do you proceed to download the mods ? i don't have permission

 

This place is my new home :cool: 

 

Thanks

If you just bought SF2:V than it will be patched to the latest update... your version should say July 2013 on the main screen... I would also encourage you to buy SF2 North Atlantic to add to Vietnam and get prettier water and better carrier ops etc

latest must have for ground objects:

http://combatace.com/files/file/16176-realistic-aaa-ex-realistic-aaa-sounds/

http://combatace.com/files/file/16376-rss-sa-2-guideline-pack-beta-041/ < = this one is GREAT !!! and there will be more... (hope)

 

and there is looooot of mods.

take it easy and take your time...enjoy game and add mods slowly step by step, so you will know what you are adding. You can judge if mod is suitable for you or not...sometimes mods overwrite older mods...so be aware..

 

sooner or later... you will get it..

 

p.s.

my personal experience .. all mods are great...but I'm picking things that I want to add and I'm building my own personal SF:Vietnam, Israel etc...with year restrictions / squadrons / weapons / etc etc

I'd grab SF2:NA along with SF2:V if you do want Tomcats in your sim; SF2:NA has the avionics file that enables multi-target engagements with the AWG-9 (AvionicsF14A.dll).  We also have a Tomcat Super Pack here at CA with A, B and D models (NA does come with two A models by ThirdWire), but they require NA to be installed to work correctly, since they use the AvionicsF14A.dll file:

If you're looking to relive some of Fleet Defender, I did a menu set with the music from FD Gold:

 

http://combatace.com/files/file/15268-fleet-defender-gold-theme-for-sf2-1600x900/

 

As it has been said above, there are a lot of great mods on this site, so take some time and check them out.  Welcome aboard!

Ok, so I started with two small mods, first ones to get the hang of it before getting into the bigger ones

 

SARCASM v1.5 and  Hud modification for  SF2

 

In my Flight folder there was no "mods" folder so I created one, installed the mods in that folder, , Started SF2 and no changes

 

That's what is in my "Flight" folder

 

"Mods" folder

Avionics60.dll

Avionics70.dll

Campain.dll

Comm.dll

EasyAvionics .dll

FlightData (security catalog)

FlightTest (security catalog)

Hud.dll

instant Action.dll

MissinData001(security catalog)

MissionData002(security catalog)

MissionTest001(security catalog)

MissionTest 002(security catalog)

SingleMisson.dll

 

And that's in my "mods" folder

 

Cloud1.tga

ENVIREMENTSYSTEM (configuration setting)

HUDDATA                     (configuration setting)

LensFlare_Diamon.tga

LensFlare_Star.tga

Sun.tga

 

So where did I f**k up? I'm on Window 7

Thanks, Marc..

SARCASM v1.5 cloud mod is it demanding for a system? I had to take it off, the game would not respond to inputs(keyboard, hotas) after about ten minutes into a single mission, had to ctrl alt del ,weird because my frame rate were in the 60s
