To repeat install requirements: Requirements: SF2 Israel, SF2 Vietnam, SF2 Europe, July 2012 patch level or above, 6GB of HDD space. Recommended but not necessary: SF2 Expansion Pack 1, SF2 Expansion Pack 2, SF2 North Atlantic. (See install instructions step 4.) Make sure the minimum install requirements are met, i.e. SF2I, SF2V and SF2E, otherwise problems will occur, from the minor missing aircraft and objects, to the severe game hangs / CTDs. Further if you do not have SF2Exp1, SF2Exp2 or SF2NA, extra install step 4 is needed! 1. Set up the Mod folder. a. Go to the SF2 root directory, make a copy of an .exe of choice (i.e. StrikeFighters2 Vietnam.exe), and rename it to StrikeFighters2 Korea.exe. Run it once, set game options. When setting graphics, recommend turning off shadows (Shadows: Low). Exit the game. b. Go to the generated mod folder (C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Korea\), delete the objects folder. 2. Set up the Korea Terrain. a. Download Wrench’s KoreaV3 terrain here: http://combatace.com/files/file/13415-sf2-korea-terrain-v3/ b. Go to the mod folder (C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Korea\), create a new folder named Terrains. c. Extract the downloaded KoreaV3.7z, cut the newly extracted Korea3 folder, paste it into the Terrains folder created above. Note, after this step, the various terrain files and textures etc. should reside in this path: C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Korea\Terrains\Korea3\ 3. Set up the mod. a. Download the 3 .7z files for this pack, extract them and put the contents of the first two .7z files together (StrikeFighters2_Korea_1_of_3.7z and StrikeFighters2_Korea_2_of_3.7z). b. Cut the StrikeFighters2 Korea folder, and overwrite it over the mod folder (paste it into C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\) Note, after this step, the mod folder should be populated with the following: Campaigns, Controls, Effects, Flight, Menu, Missions, Objects, PilotData, Screenshots, Sounds, Terrains, as well as Options.ini and Version.ini. 4. Step for not having the recommended game installs. (If all three of the recommended games: SF2 Exp1, Exp2 and North Atlantic, are already installed, feel free to skip this step.) Go to the extracted contents of the third .7z file (StrikeFighters2_Korea_3_of_3.7z), and enter the folder named "No_NA_EXP1_EXP2". a. If you do not have SF2 North Atlantic, copy the contents of the folder "No NA" into your mod folder (C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Korea\). b. If you do not have SF2 Expansion Pack 1, copy the contents of the folder "No EXP1" into your mod folder. c. If you do not have SF2 Expansion Pack 2, copy the contents of the folder "No EXP2" into your mod folder. 5. Mod specific .ini configs a. In your SF2 installation directory where all the game .exe resides, make a copy of StrikeFighters2 Israel.ini (or any other similar ini) and rename it StrikeFighters2 Korea.ini. Open the newly created .ini and find the following: [Directory] ... CampaignsDirectory=Campaigns ... And change it to: CampaignsDirectory=C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Korea\Campaigns\ *Please do not just copy paste this line but replace [username] with whatever’s set on your PC. This step is to prevent stock campaigns from displaying which can sometimes cause problems. b. In your Mod folder (C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Korea\), open up the file Options.ini, find the [instantAction] section, and replace it with the following: [instantAction] AircraftType=F-86E-10 MissionMap=Korea3 StartTime=15:30:00 StartDate=09/18/1951 StartTimeDeviation=120 TextureSet=0 NationalMarking=0 SquadronMarking=0 AircraftNumber=0 KillMarking=0 This would get InstantAction working spawning F-86s, Mig-15s etc. --- Above are essential steps. Optional steps follow. 6. Files for payware mods. Go to the extracted contents of the third .7z file, and enter the folder named "Payware Files". a. The contents in the folder "For Razbam Banshee" are for the F2H-2 aircraft sold by Razbam. If you have it, drop the contents from this folder into the mod folder (C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Korea\), and then drop the .LOD files from your purchase into their corresponding paths (banshee korea.LOD, and f2h2cockpit.LOD for the cockpit). Banshees will thus fly sorties in campaigns. b. The contents in the folder "For YAP Essex" are for Carrier Pack 1 (CV-34 Oriskany and F9F) sold by Yankee Air Pirate. If you have it, drop the contents from this folder into the mod folder, and then drop Essex_Korea.LOD from your purchase into its corresponding path. Next, create a copy of the .LOD, and rename it "Essex_Korea_Col.LOD" (Without the "). This is crucial, as the game will use the collision LOD for ship deck positioning. 7. Alternate mods. Go to the extracted contents of the third .7z file (StrikeFighters2_Korea_3_of_3.7z). a. The folder "F-86 Alternate Cockpit" contains modded F-100 cockpits for use on the F-86 series. If decided to use these cockpits, use the contents in the folder "With EXP2" if SF2 Expansion Pack 2 is installed; if not, use the contents in the "NO EXP2" folder. b. The folder "F-86 Alternate Skins" contains SF1 F-86 skins adapted to SF2. And that’s it, the setup is complete. ________________________________________________ Credits: Tu-2S: Cocas, Kulbit80, Baffmeister, Kesselbrut, Wrench, Jiver (from IL2 SAS) An-2: Pasko, Diego, Wrench F7F-3N cockpit: Stary F-94B cockpit: Stary F-84E&G cockpit: Flakiten, Brain32, Stary WW2/Korea fx tests: Stary Mig-15 ADI fix: Coupi B-29 ini updates: Crusader F2H, F9F, F-80, F-84, F-86, Meteor and Mig-15 engine sounds: Jiver and Tiger33 (from IL2 SAS) Seafury: Skippybing, Wrench, Baffmeister, 7eleven, PauloPanz, GregoryP, Hinchbrook, Stephan1918, KJakker, eburger NK prop FMs for IL-10, La-11 and Yak-9: Baffmeister F9F panther flight model: Baffmeister KAW B-29 Pack: Wrench, MontyCZ, PauloPanz, Crusader, GregroyP, Brain32, lindr2, bobrock F-86 Fighter Bomber Units skin pack: Wrench F4U-5 Corsair pack: TMF, Crusader, Wrench, RussoUK, CrazyHorseB34 SF2 Colourful Korea: Gunrunner C-47 21TCS skin: Wrench C-47 skin pack: paulopanz, Wrench Li-2 Pack: paulopanz, Wrench, Kesselbrut, Kubit AN-M65: ravenclaw_007 SF2 Wings over Korea (KAW) HiRes hangar and loading screens: viper63a Razbam Banshee tweeks: Wrench, luk1978 AD-4NL 3w pack: Wrench, Dels, Bunyap Korean War pilot pics: Capitaine Vengeur Open cockpit method: Coupi YAP Essex Decals: Paulopanz F-86 Sabre/GunVal Sabre Pak: Wrench: Skins, ini Zurawski: 3D model, cockpit Fubar512: FM, sounds NDicki: SAAF Decals Brain32: cockpit Crab_02, Zurawski, Dave: RF-86F rework Pappychksix: JASDF skin and decal Wrench: USAF, ROKAF Skin and decal Russouk2004: Wing Fence FastCargo: Fakepilot Ravenclaw007: Skin template F-86 Sabre/GunVal Sabre Pak Update: Crusader F-86 120/200Gal Hi-def drop tanks: Ravenclaw007 Mig-15/Mig-15Bis_NK: Wrench: Skins, Pilot, ini Fubar512: FM, sound Stary: Cockpit Pasko: Seat Spillone104(?): VK-1 sound Mig-15/Mig-15Bis Skin pack: Paulopanz: Skins, decals, ini Stary: Cockpit Spillone104: pylons, sounds Pasko: 150 tank Gaunt, Y.

Modern Flanker cockpit for SF2 After few years,hundred thousand hours hard works and some remod,here's the stuff.it designed for SF2 still you can also put it in Gen1,but some instruments won't do their job.using in Gen1 is not recommend,well,you know,old engine has lower efficiency when deal with those high poly model. Model: the whole thing has more than ten thousand polys,i try to build almost everything in 3d model,switch panel instruments handle etc.... Texture: Spending about a dozen bitmap for those texture,most of the instruments and panel has their own skin.for compatibility all bitmap been converted into BMP format,which can work in Gen 1&2. Head up display: the HUD is composed with traditional one which using the avionics.ini and 3d model with cockpit.ini,just like TMF mig-29's pit, you will lose some part of the HUD when press the Cockit hidden key. tested environment: WOE Oct 2008 SF2E Jul 2013 SF2NA Jul 2013 Installation:please check the readme file Credits: TK,Thirdwire Combatace.com This is freeware mod made for SF2 series do not use for commercial use or unauthorized distribution. hope you like this mod,and enjoy your flight
