    Hello All, This project started in November 2015! I started to share this project with two other guys Logan4 and Heberth around March of 2016. And here we are... First I want to thank the following individuals: Logan4 for the 3ds Max issues and Florian for showing me the slimmer technique. I want to thank Mue for his valuable tool program for making this project easier. Of course, thanks to Marcelo for his Su-27 model (I believe it is a 2007 model) so it is a old model but still useful. I will get to the point... I wanted to finish this project by 2016. Will, as you can see, there is still plenty to do before it is consider finish. The reasons are the same - time, family, work, interest, and anything else you can think of. The model is old and has issues with its UVMap and so a lot of items need to be modify or change just to make it close to what I wanted. So, any issues you will eventually see... most likely I already know. Now due to time and interest, at this point, I just want to finish it. There are plenty of issues and errors in this Mod but I am OK with it. Example: the MAWS on the forward fuselage of the J-11A_Upgrade is in the wrong position and the size could be bigger. My mistake was making the fake pilot mod before I made the new template and try to fit it in the proper place. However, using the old template and the size of the aircraft model, the position is pretty close... it is just the way the model was made that made it hard to fit in the right place. Anothere was the J-11B_AL-31F's top shield for the HUD was deleted, it was meant to be this way. The initial J-11B was to have a new hud and cockpit with AL-31F engines. It turns out that the eventual first J-11B was with a Holographic HUD and AL-31F engines. I just included that model for fun. Another example: The right main inner wheel well is not UV unwrap, so you are going to see the lower right wing textures instead, I did try to locate it using the Mue's tool... it is not there. Another example: The way the model was UV unwrapped, there are plenty of areas where it will "bleed" into different shapes. What I meant by that is... if you place a line (as in a panel line or a rivet) you will not see the panel line or the rivet... what you will see is a stretch mark or a blended or distorted line or spots of color. So things like these is what you are going to see as errors. Basically - size, shape, position, etc. will be adjusted as needed to make it look ok or fit. Finishing up the panel lines, making the stencils, markings, and adjusting the aircraft, etc... Thanks to CombatAce for being here and for its continuing support of the community for FREE! I thank CA for all the wonderful toys we get to play with! Hopefully I will finish this thing... Cheers! Ace888

    If anybody would like to test the FAA versions for me before I upload them please let me know...... I've also given the basic ( as in non clipped wings) version the same treatment.......just dont really have time to make new skins for them.......they've all been done so many times before anyway.

    Here is an F-4S Phantom II with only 2 skins. I have in my personal stash version more skins, but I need to finish tweaking. The completed version will have more skins and I'll include weps and sound files, pilots etc. If no pilot shows up when u try this one you'll have to edit the 'data' file and change the pilot with one you have. I just realized I neglected to change the sound settings in the data file...so i enclosed my j79.wav files. Be careful not to overwrite what you don't want to loose, so I'd unzip it to somwplace like C:\Temp...the copying to the right folders. J79.7z

    Salve a tutti, utenti italiani di CombatACE! Riguardo un terreno dei Balcani, c'era questo vecchio thread https://combatace.com/forums/topic/60560-parlando-di-bagatelle-e-facezie/ Anziché "resuscitarlo" ho preferito crearne uno nuovo. Chissà quanti utenti italiani sono ancora attivi su CombatACE... Il terreno è ancora in alto mare in fase WIP. Chi ha già giocato con alcuni scenari che ho rilasciato per SF2, sa che ci tengo alla qualità e alla precisione. Con un po' di tempo e pazienza, arriverà. La passione per il terrain modding non mi manca di certo. Enough chit-chat, ecco giusto due immagini per incominciare: Mancano ancora tanti aeroporti, etc. etc., lo so! Perché ho tagliato fuori la Sicilia? Scelte di design e gameplay; la Sicilia è già rappresentata nell'altro terreno che ho rilasciato, sulla Libia; inoltre, così do' priorità a combattimenti al Nord e sull'Adriatico. Niente aerei Jugoslavi sulla Sicilia! Ah, dimenticavo: ci saranno due versioni del terreno, una che coprirà gli anni 1963-1991 (prima dello scioglimento della Jugoslavia) e uno dal 1992 fino ad oggi, con i nuovi Stati dell'area Balcanica. Che ne dite?

    USAF KC-135 Skinpack 2: 1974 through 1987 This skin pack will feature skins for all USAF KC-135 users from 1974 until 1987. This includes the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserves as the aircraft became available. Requirements: any version of Strike Fighters 2, and the KC-135 mod found here Installation: first, get the Mirage Factory C-135A/B and KC-135A/E/R 1.0 from the above link (if you dont have it already) then unzip this to the mod folder, allowing overwrites. Known Issues: this is meant as eye candy. unfortunately, SF2 doesnt support air to air refueling so the best to be done is set up a recon mission and then park it in an orbit. Also, Dels C-130 pit does not line up with the model very well. it is included mainly so that it can be player selected (i had to test it somehow). In the skins with ADC tgas, loading more than 8 aircraft on a mission will produce irregularities (like only the front half of the camo showing). So far I have not seen more than 8 on a ramp, and it is doubtful you need to load more than that in one area for a mission. Just be warned if you throw all 16 in at once. BTW, this thing is huge!!! over 3 1/2 GB size So, Whats Included?: Skins with at least two examples from every USAF unit to fly the KC-135 from 1974 - 1987, with separate skins for Active Duty and reserve forces Colors represented include silver lacquer, ADC gray, and Shamu dark grey over medium grey. Skins from 1987 have a mix of Shamu and ADC grey colors as tga. Same skin, two different paint jobs Skins from 1983-1985 have a mix of ADC grey and silver lacquer colors. Skins from the 1970s are all silver lacquer and minimal tail markings Engines on the A models were adjusted to produce heavy smoke at max thrust. Burning water, just like the real thing. Drogue to simulate refueling probe equipped aircraft.

    USAF KC-135 Skinpack 3: Late 1980s This skin pack will feature skins for all USAF KC-135 users from the late 1980s. This includes the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserves. Many of the skins serials and nose arts are the same as in ODS, which the aircraft would participate in a few years after this period. This also represents the era that the Shamu scheme became more common and that nose art made a comeback on USAF aircraft. Requirements: any version of Strike Fighters 2, and the KC-135 mod found here Installation: first, get the Mirage Factory C-135A/B and KC-135A/E/R 1.0 from the above link (if you dont have it already) then unzip this to the mod folder, allowing overwrites.
