 ______________________________________________
 GAF Tornado Addon for SF2 series by the GMG
 ______________________________________________

 General:
 --------
 The Panavia Tornado is a family of twin-engine, variable-sweep wing multirole combat aircraft, which was jointly
 developed and manufactured by Italy, the United Kingdom, and West Germany.
 (source:wiki)
 IMPORTANT!
 This pack contains only the german versions IDS, ECR and IDS ASSTA3.1!
 Due to the setup of the weapon stations, you can not change them to other nation versions!

 Installation:
 -------------
 Unpack the files, read the GAF_Tornado_README.txt!  
 Drop all files into your mod folder the way they are setup in this pack.
 If you are unsure about the way how mods are installed, check the knowledge base at CombatAce!

 Model features:
 ---------------
 + All 357 serial numbers. Numbers.lst shows what aircraft reached the ASSTA upgrade.
   Trainer just means, they are in reality steerable from the back also, fully combat compatible.
   A "-D" behind means, the aircraft got decommissioned between 2000-2005.
   "CXX-XXXX" shows the aircraft crashed by month-year.
 + Many new parts and remodeled stuff. (Including external model and cockpit)
 + Many pylons are used only for the german weapons, to make them match with launch rails and weapon locks.
 + Included are several weapons, if you have them allready, you're fine.
 + Shift+7 for Night Vision Goggles in cockpit view.
 + Shift+8 deploys stairs and covers for parking.
 + Shift+9 deploys refuel probe.
 + shift+0 opens canopy.
 + Hangar and Loading screens in two resolutions. Change in the aircraft.ini your screen aspect ratio 4:3 or 16:9.
   (Two Hangar/Loading screens with -4-3 or -16-9 in Name)

Simple answer, yes you do. But since i made the ladder moving just far away, instead of inside the model (it caused strange shadows). So you see the model in LOD wiewer, but from a such great distance, it doesn't even get rendered.

They are setup for not to jettison. The AI mostly drops fuel tanks while engaging enemies, but in real the Tornado would drop them only in case of emergency.

Great Flo!

But one thing, Enoc did the basic camo patterns for my Norm 83 & 87 templates!

Fix for two files, just replace them and that's it. Package is updated also with this post.

Hello

 

 

The bombs are wrong in the loadout.ini, should be Matra_250kg

Also, the Tornado was operationnal much later than 1976.

 

Anyway, I love this new version

Thanks for the new Tornado models! Many improvements over the original and very high quality skins! German quality indeed!

To improve realism, can the "StartDefaultDate" parameter be added to the various skins? I doubt there were Tornados in Norm 2009 and Norm 87 camos during the first years of deployment.

I'm missing the engine sounds, also the ground map mode on the radar doesn't seem to wotk properly

[Panzerfan 0]

I redownloaded the mod but the engine sound is still missing

[Avalanche78 2]

I am also missing the engine sounds in the external view. There is nothing, just silence. All other sounds are there. In the cockpit etc.

[Wrench 9,843]

unzip this, and drop the 3 wavs into you mod folder's /Sounds folder.
