3 pointsTrailing was picked off of AvWeb's Flash e-zine this morning: The Naval Air Station at Belle Chase regularly uses New Iberia, LA (KARA) as a refueling stop. I was flying my Piper PA‑32 into KARA to get fuel for myself and contacted the Tower. Tower: “Piper Three Five Eight One Whiskey, enter a left base for Runway 34. You are following two F‑18s on a 15‑mile final.” I saw the jets and could tell that if I kept my current speed I would be close to their jet wash. Me: “Eight One Whiskey, left base for 34, slowing down for the F‑18s.” F‑18 pilot: “In your dreams.”

Kuril Islands 1.0 ***************************************************** This terrain is written for SF2. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I. Short description: This terrain covers the Kurils islands, a small group of islands which were conquered by the soviets in September 1945 from Japan. There is also a small part of the japanese island of Hokkaido. This terrain is made for carrier ops in primary. You may fly ground based planes too. There are two small japanese airfields and 3 soviet airfields. The soviets deployed an aray of SAM sites over the islands of Kunashir and Iturup. To run this terrain you need SF2NA and one of these: SF2I or SF2E. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ II. INSTALLATION: Unzip all files into your saved game folder ...ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2NorthAtlantic /terrain folder. Because IcelandNA terrain does not include all neccessary objects to run this terrain properly you need to link it to an other terrains CAT file. From stock the terrain is prepared to link with SF2 Israel If you dont have SF2I you must open the file kurilen.ini with Windows notepad editor. Look for the lines: CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.cat //CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat //CatFile=..\VIETNAMSEA\VietnamSEA.cat //CatFile=..\Desert\Desert.cat Add // in front of CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.cat to switch ot off. Then remove // at one of the other lines. Which you should remove depends on which SF2 game you still have installed side by side with SF2 North Atlantic. Save it. Thats it. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ III. Credits. The TOD's, what means the trees and autogenerated houses on the map, are mostly taken from various tilesets made by Stary. The SAM protection walls are taken from Pureblues AirfieldDevKit. They were originaly made by Sundowner. The basic files for the taxiways, parking areas and quais are made by ErikGen. I hope i have not forgotten someone. . ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ IV. This Terrain is Freeware. Commercial use is not allowed. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ V. For remarks, comments, bugs, etc please use CombatAce forum or send me a PM. Hope you enjoy it.

-=Parani Air Force Pack 1=- *********************** *****by Centurion 1****** *********************** This pack adds a bunch of nation specifc, flyable aircraft that depicts the fictional Parani Air Force of the 1970s. All the skins are high-resolution and custom made for this. The baddies have never looked so good :) The fighters also have kill markings included. Included are: MiG-21MF*/PFM Mirage 3 called PC Mirage 5** called PD Mirage F.1 (early type, Cyrano IV radar and no RWR. Inboard Atoll pylons included) Su-7BMK Tu-22 Il-28 and a skin for the Tu-22KD. The reason for this not being a nation specific variant is I cant make cruise missiles work for other nations than the Soviets. The MiG-21s are based on the latest MiG-21 pack by Ataribaby and include the "hard" handling model. *The MiG-21MF have provisions for mounting Matra550 Magic 1 IRMS, because of the poor performance of the Atolls. This was done IRL by the Iraqi air force in the 1980s. If you dont like it, feel free to edit it out. **Converesly, the Mirage 5s have the possibility to mount WP IRMs and dumb ordnance, like the Libyan Mirage 5D Installation: Unzip to a mod folder of your choice. Suggested to use with Piecemeals excellent Desert 4 terrain. Requirements: MiG-21s, Il-28, Su-7, Tu-22: Any SF2 title more or less. Mirage 3 and 5: SF2 Israel (based on the Nesher and Shahak) Tu-22KD: SF2: North Atlantic CREDITS: Thirdwire for making Sf2 The CombatAce community for being very friendly, supporting and making SF2 live on! Piecemeal for making the Desert 4 terrain, the main reason for me making this pack Me (Centurion): Su-7BMK templates. Skins. Misc tweaks. Ataribaby, Paladrian, Spillone104,Howling1,Klavs81,Wrench,Lindr2,Zdenek Kussior, 4plus: MiG-21 pack (cockpits, data tweaks, sounds etc) Soulfreak: MiG-21 templates LudoM54: Mirage temps Flogger23: Il-28 and Tu-22 temps Stary: Su-7 and Il-28 cockpits Lindr2 for some weapons Ravenclaw for some weapons LudoM54, Crusader and me and the rest of the F.1 team for the Mirage F.1 And anyone else I might have forgot. -
1 pointLike it says. New major addition for jets, the Canberra in 4 variants-The iconic British bomber from the 50s is coming to B.A.T. in 4 versions: B.Mk.2, B(I)Mk.6, B(I)Mk.8, Martin B-57B https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,59975.0.html

1 pointI have uploaded a cockpit for the DFW C.V. The cockpit features fully functional gauges, rudder control, stick, and throttle. It will work in both FE1 and FE2. Installation instructions are included. I discovered a typo in the data.ini which makes the Fuselage disappear in Cockpit view, I have included instructions for correcting that type in the download.

1 pointNo german Jastas in the East Front. The german and austrian fighters were attached to the two-seater units in small quantities. In 07/01/17 Jadgflieger Ober-Ost was formed (basically an ad-hoc fighter unit with planes from the two seater units, similar to the KEKs of Western Front in 1915-16). This unit moved out the Galician front in August and came back in September, It became Jasta 81 in October 1917, the only Jasta in the entire Eastern Front.

1 pointJust to be complete, in order for decals to show properly on the model the object needs a "with decals" setting to be turned on in 3DS Max when it is saved or it does funky things in game. Stephen1918 and I ran into that issue when assigning pennant number decals to the V & W class destroyers. You might need to be able to read the data the "with decals" flag adds to the object. Example of the issue from our development.

1 pointhttp://patrulla-azul.com/FreeIL2modding/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&p=15848#p15848 for the Mosquito junkies ... MOSQUITO B.IV HIGH-BALL (Series-II) (Type2) 4.13.4 / 4.12.2 / Hsfx I have been debating posting this for almost a year, i created it some time ago (almost 1 year now) & then its been left collecting dust so ... Instead of this never being available, better i get it posted & up on to the cloud , it almost went into WiP section & then i decided i want to finally put this project to bed & close it, so ive posted & tagged it on the end of this thread. Then i will post it into the first post as a second type / option. What held me back for so long was finding specifications & evidence. I found no evidence of it having folding wings. Some people say it was a driven by a four blade prop & so does the only official looking data, almost all photographs show a 3bladed prop, video shows a 3 bladed & 4 bladed prop. Most kits are 4 bladed. The issue which seems most confusing is the tropical filter. There are more details about the history & specs in the readme in the download. It has its own unique FM & EM but i could use hand finishing it as i do not know how to adjust the amount of blades for the prop & i couldn't find a tutorial how either. This is only my interpretation of the final Modification done to create the Real life 618 Sqd Mosquito High ball Modification Basic spec of aircraft modification Modified bomb bay Merlin 25's 4 blade Propellers Tropical filters

1 point(don't know what happened with the quotation box there...to answer the question: only 1stGens locate the decals sub folder ( Objects/Aircraft/F-86F/336th(skin)/D/*nameofdecal* in skin sub folder the aircraft main folder SF2 uses a seperate /Objects/Decals/Name-of-aircraft/name-of-skin/-decals-/name of decal format. Something TK changed when going to the SF2, seperate mods folders concept/formate/wingdongs7 also, the DecalMaxLod= MUST be listed in each decal statement in the ini. Oddly, in 1stGens it wasn't necessary. We only found that out (SF2) when converting older aircraft TO sf2, and finding the decals didn't show, all else being equal. OTH, 1stGens CAN use the Objects/Decals/etc..... that's been tested by me and it works fine.

1 pointTotally agree mate for the early war and Palestine where older types stayed in service longer it would be nice to see, and Borts Farmans are ok, but they need an update , and some of the older 2 seaters which have the original FE 1 Gunners in are really ugly looking now , well past their sell by date me thinks !!
-
1 pointI know time is a premium for our modders but it might be a worthwhile at some point to have a new nascel made for these old planes. maybe just make a couple versions slightly larger than the original that could be placed vis the fake pilot method.

Lockheed RT-33A (Reduxe) Improved version 2018. Basic modding skills are required to run this mod. (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) Older Skins available at CA are not compatible with this mod!!! Install: drop the Objects Folder into your mod folder - Fuel tanks- not to be afraid. Overwrite - Seats- not to be afraid. Overwrite Tanks are just ini files. Mod uses tanks that are part of aircraft lod. This is modified ErikGen model uploaded on CA by Wrench on April 12th 2014. Some time ago I decided to rework this pretty aircraft. So, first of all, thank you Enrico. Although. I changed mapping a bit, did some ini dance, only left the fletcher tank selectable, organiezed folders new and made new skins. 9 Skins are in: 1 AdA, 3 AMI, 2 KlU, 2 PAF & 1 USAf skins All skins are in 4096x4096 format. You can easily resize to needed resolution. better to downsize than rescale to higher res. Credits. ErikGen - original model Mue: Hexediting Lod, to have both intakes seperate on the texture Soulfreak - skins, ini edits, Hangar & Loading screens, new bump & spec maps Have fun Report bugs. Schapen, November 16th 2018 Carlo "Soulfreak" Vecchi THIS MODEL IS ONLY TO BE DISTRIBUTED AS FREEWARE AND IN NO OTHER CIRCUMSTANCE SHALL IT BE USED, EVEN IN PART OF ANYTHING THAT IS PAYWARE.

New skin for excellent AnatraDS_"Anasal" by Stephen1918. I tried to add some "photorealistic" textures for more impressive image of this aircraft. Don't forget to add to AnatraDS "ini" files: [TextureSetXXX] Directory=RussianPhR Name=RussianPhR Nation=Russia Squadron= Specular=0.300000 Glossiness=0.250000 Reflection=0.300000 Eugene1 -
1 pointBut I can remember years ago, that if I typed in a book title... tons of pdf references would come up. Some sites required users to be paid members, but just about any book I could think of was showing up as a downloadable file. In the old days, I could go to a hobby shop or book store and check out a book's contents before buying it. Not many places carry the types of aviation books I buy and the ones that do can only afford to carry the most popular ones (i.e. Osprey books at hobby shops). Being able to check out a low-res poorly scanned pdf helped fill my shelves with tons more books than I would have bought otherwise... but then there were countless others whose content was worthless. It is very nice to see the entire contents of the book, especially when you know exactly what facts/specs/references you are hoping to gain from purchasing the book.

A/F-24 Shadowcat (AFX) for Strike Fighters 2 ---------------------------------------------- Preface: After making the first attempt at modelling this concept, which ended up as the not-very-accurate F-24 Shadowcat for WOI, I decided to go back and, armed with a lot more research material and better workflow, redo the entire thing from the ground up as accurate as is possible with unbuilt concepts. It originally was to feature a new cockpit based on that of the A-12 Avenger II, but this turned out to look quite ugly ingame. I eventually found out that the real thing was to use cockpit displays from the F-22 for sakes of commonality, so I decided I might as well build a straight-down navalized F-22 cockpit for which a whole lot more reference material is available. ---------------------------------------------- Known Issues: The cockpit isn't 100% complete. I thought it was better to release something that's 99% complete and fix it later which I will as it was always part of the plan to adapt the cockpit back into a straight F-22 pit. For some reason all of your wingmen except #2 will tip over and crash on the taxiway. No idea why this happens. They all start fine from the carrier though. ---------------------------------------------- Credits: Models & textures by Julhelm FM by Fubar512 Avionics by Jat As usual, these files may not be used in payware or otherwise tampered with and reposted without my consent which you may request at NilsD at bredband dot net.
