9 pointsNo. Its a completly new terrain. It comes with a complete tileset, so that you can use it if you have only SF2E or SF2I. This is the Planning Map: The terrain covers the northern part of Vietnam, the chinese island of Hainan and the chinese vietnamese borderland. The progress is slow, because i'm working now on the placement of the TOD objects (trees, houses) on the map. We have now a nice tool for this job (Thanks to Mue!!!!), but it is still time consuming. Progress is slow but steady. And now the terrain begins to look a little bit more realistic.

2 pointsYes, in fact I just changed my right click menu back to the old explorer.exe look, it's been bugging me but since writing my reply I decided to fix it. My Win11 is now back to Win7/10 feel. The only thing I can't change back is the start menu layout but if you play with it enough in settings > personalization > start you can get it close enough that it won't bother you. I'm having no issues beating my install into submission. I should also say that new ToDo List and Office syncing to my Samsung phone is a bloody blessing. I can now use my phone as an extension of my computer even when the computer is at home. They are really giving Apple a run for their money which is what I think the rollout of Win11 was really all about.

2 pointsWin11 is really Win10 with minor improvements. So, if you're running Win10 your machine will tolerate Win11. My Win11 install looks much like a Win7 install, so did my Win10 for that matter. I don't need all that frilly GUI look and feel stuff, I much prefer everything to be where things are supposed to be or where I know them to be. The two biggest changes are the Start menu, and the right click menu. Win11 moved more into Apps and widgets, but I've never been into widgets so that's not significant to me. There are some improvements to networking, and I like the updated power shell. I did buy a new Crucial P5 Plus SSD with read/write speeds up to 6600MB/s and dumped in a new 32GB DDR4 single sided stick and my cold start to fully loaded desktop time improved to 8 seconds. Win11 has been stable with no crashes or issues to report.

2 pointsWas going to post this before, but hadn't read much about it so figured everyone was doing O.K. with the current Windows upgrade. I don't consider myself a big-time flight simulator user, but I have the whole TW package with a variety of separated installs and upgrades on both my W11 desktop and my W10 notebook (and yes, alongside some other "more modern" flight simulators) and no issues with any of them right out of the box when W11 became available. Regardless of W10 or W11, and IMHO, the only noticeable difference between the two rigs running either SF2 / FE2 is how the software interacts with the installed graphics cards capacities. To wrap this up, my biggest problems have nothing to do with the operating systems, but invariably come from occasionally trying to stretch the capabilities of the TW flight engine a little too far, and of incorporating an occasional "self-inflicted wound" (read "stupid change that doesn't work") into the programs.

THIS IS NOT UNDER THE COMBATACE FREEWARE LICENSE ACCORD YOU MAY - Have fun with this mod - Use it as you see fit once you download it, even modify it as you see fit - Create your own textures as you see fit and upload them under your name IF you wish to send me any modified core files (I don't need to review skins as that doesn't affect any core files) please PM me the modified files and I will check them out. There is no exception to this policy given my attitude towards staying out of jail. I will check them out and yay or nay the decision, but if I can edit any files in order to not go to jail, I will inform you and that will be it. I understand you may have information of a sensitive nature that you may have access to and frankly it does not belong in any files of this download. If that bothers you then please don't send me sensitive information, I think I've made it clear that I'm not going to jail in order to appease to players. http://combatace.com...24-my-projects/ Newer skin PSD with Block I ECS (no stacks) now available for skinning needs: http://combatace.com...-skin-template/ - Fixed some glaring errors in the INI files. -

Banidos TA 50 (SU-57) This is a model of the prototype of the TA 50 (SU 57) created by AleDucat, the model is beta, this means that it has not been tested enough, it may have missing parts and some inconveniences, (none affects anything in the simulator) the installation method is the standard one, copy the contents of each folder into the corresponding folders in your simulator installation. The flight model is super unstable, this means that you can perform cobra, super cobra and rotate like a juggler's baton. if you press the vectoring key (as used on helicopters and harriers) the model will deploy the refueling zone and become more stable. For animation reasons, the cockpit is unfolded with the key to unfold the mooring hook. The center bays deploy automatically when firing a radar guidance missile. In order to engage and fire infrared missiles housed in the wing root wells, you must open them with the key that corresponds to the openings of common wells. the model is the prototype, remove the pitot t antennas that the working model does not bring from the ini files. I hope you enjoy. This folder contains a 3d model of the SU-57, a 3d model of the cockpit, a 3d model of the pilot's seat and optronic seeker, 3 skins with the corresponding decals, and several engine sound files. 3d model :AleDucat textures: Torno excuse my bad english this was translated with google translator. -

The purpose of this mod is to improve the chaff and flare effect. The stock effects does not provide realistic drag efficient for both Chaff and Flare. This mod improves these aspects to make combat countermeasure effects a bit real. Installation ----- Extract the files under your SF2 mod main folder and overwrite the file. -
1 pointI have no performance issues whatsoever. SF2 runs very well on my rig, the only crashes that occur are those that are caused because the install is rather f***ed up... ;-) Cheers, mate

1 pointI have been saying for years the cold war never ended and that the red scourge was still out there. We are witnessing "Red Dawn 1985" real life. Its ironic that those who taught the germans a lesson in 42 are now learning that lesson themselves and that's as far as I will go without getting political. Has the clock ever been this close to midnight (Iron maiden song rings in my head) Seems it hasn't been updated since this all started but it was already short before all this. (shakes head) It is insane, criminal, and very sad. Bless those behind the lines and those poor people and furry family members in the crossfire.

BOEING B-47E STRATOJET by COYOTE AEROSPACE This is a semi historical mod to represent the B-47E through its career as SACs most numerous bomber. It is semi historical because there were so many variations on equipment and markings across 1300+ aircraft over its 12 year career that it is impossible to accurately represent all of them. Instead, all major units that could be represented are (in other skin packs) and the general paint schemes used during the appropriate eras are modded for the forward deployments known as Operation REFLEX. Further, new nuclear weapons have been included. To keep file sizes down somewhat, unit skins will be release by numbered air force and available in the SF2 Skins download section INSTALLATION unzip installation folder cut and paste to desired mods folder allow overwrites (some effects and weapons mainly) IF YOU HAVE THE B28 NUCLEAR WEAPONS ALREADY FROM ANOTHER MOD use caution. I have set the nuclear weapons to a specific station code as NUC. Other mods featuring the B28 weapon do not have this yet, although i intend to do a comprehensive ini edit later this year across many weapons and aircraft INCLUDED B-47E(53) and B-47(57) aircraft Operation Reflex skins, and one unit skin for each aircraft) Period accurate M64 and M65 bombs B28 nuclear weapons, 350Kt and 1.1MT yields new Mk15 and MK39 nuclear weapons, 1.69 and 3MT yields short document on how best to employ the LABS technique in game with MK15 weapon CREDITS veltro2K .......................................... aircraft models daddyairplanes .......................................... skins, tgas, research, ini work on aircraft and weapons, constant nagging on models yakarov79 .......................................... testing and ini work GKABS ................................................... new MK15/39 nuclear weapon models russouk2004 ............................................... B28 nuclear weapons ravenclaw_007 .......................................... excellent M64 and M65 conventional bombs NightshadeP/R .......................................... willing crash test dummy (help figure out what works to use MK15) (whomever created them) .................................. nuclear effects FB B-47 Stratojet (Model 450) Strategic Bomber group ..... very valuable source of information on markings and weapons Known Issues - At this time there are not models for the RATO pods that were commonly used by the B-47. I have a method figured out for it, but we would need someone to model the horsecollar device with 33 JATO bottles - Not every upgrade to the Stratojet is modeled. Again, there were 1300+ aircraft built, and 6 phases for upgrades. The (53) roughly represents the aircraft after introduction, the (57) in between Phase 3 and 4. Anyone that would like to work any fakepilot mods to represent each of the 6 phases, as well as modifications like TEE TOWN would be welcomed. - while online sources state the 341st Bomb Wing operated Stratojets, veteran and book sources could not even find proof of operation, let alone marking information (they came through on all other Wings). Therefore I have not included this Bomb Wing in the mod. - The "afterburner" trick to use water injection on take off is in effect, from 99-100%. If you want realism, and to not be visible across the continent, dont exceed 97% power in flight. ************************************************************* This is freeware; it CANNOT be distributed unless permissions are granted by Coyote Aerospace.
