This mod is like a little toybox. I keep finding new, awesome stuff. Loving it!

A nice compilation and great idéa :)

Wow, thanks! Now all I need to do is find voice actors for TSF :D

If they are using your image without permission, then you are fully entitled to ask for a free jet. You can always threaten with Legal Action otherwise since it is now allowed to use an image without permission that way. A Jet is btw pretty much the value of the cost of the image, as well as damages of them using it without your permission.

That is strange. I thought I had hammered out that bug. I can only assume it is caused by the forces at Svensksund not spawning correctly, but how this is even possible is beyond me, since your files should be identical to mine and mine work just fine. I know the Engine sometime randomize what is spawned, so let me have a look at the files again and get back to you. What difficulty are you playing at, btw?

Gepard: They are indeed. AI can take off fine from Kaliningrad tought.

Would somebody give me a Stridsbåt 90? :D

Sorry. Bundeswehr already got me hooked :D

Can I find a changelog somewhere?

Depending on what aircraft you are flying, your air speed may be too high. Try slowing down.

I almost pity the Marines and any others to take delivery of that aircraft. I doubt it will be able to live up to all the hype, and will most likely not be available in the numbers necessary for most countries. How they think that one will be able to replace the Harrier or A-10 is actually beyond me.

View File SF2E: TSF: The Catalina Affair The Catalina Affair By The Scandinavian Front Team "The Catalina affair was an incident on June 13, 1952, when a Swedish military Douglas DC-3A-360 Skytrain flying over the Baltic Sea carrying out signals intelligence gathering operations for the Swedish National Defence Radio Establishment (FRA), disappeared east of the isle of Gotska Sandön. Three days later, two Swedish military Catalina flying boats searched for the DC-3 north of Estonia. One of the planes was shot down by Soviet warplanes but the crew ditched near the West German freighter Münsterland and were rescued." As the survivors are flown from Finland with a military escort, the DC-3 wreckage is found by the Swedish Navy. Stalin at once declares the wreckage soviet property as "is filled to the brim with Soviet State Secrets" while Sweden declares their intention to combat any attempt to stop a salvage operation on international waters. As the Swedish Navy rallies off Gotland to blockade the Baltic Navy ports from the point "Svensksund", the Soviets steam out to meet them.... This modification is based on the fictional event that the Catalina Affair resulted in an armed conflict. It is not a reproduction of actual events. The TSF Team wish to dedicate this mod to the crew of the DC-3 and Anders Jallai, the man who found them. Installation: If you are using a mod, or plan to use one, TSF will mess around with settings other mods may be using. As such, creating a seperate mod folder for TSF is a good idea. If you only plan to use TSF, then this step can be bypassed. Go to your installation folder (Usually C:\Program Files\Thirdwire\Strike Fighters 2). Make a copy of Strike Fighters 2.exe / Strike Fighters 2 Europe.exe depending on what you prefer and got installed. Name the Copy Strike Fighters 2 TSF.exe . Start your new .exe once, then close the game. Now go to your Mod Folders. For Windows XP/Vista, this is located in C:\Users\Name\Saved Games\Thirdwire. Unzip the contents of the 7zip file into the mod folder of your choice. Allow any overwrites. Done! Enjoy the game! NOTES: * The Swedish Navy is larger in the mod then it actually was in the 1950s. This is due to the pacing in the action required it. * The Swedish Air Force actually had only one P-51B. For novelty reasons and fun, you can choose what J 26 type to fly. If you choose another squadron, then all P-51s will be D versions.

The Scandinavian Front Team are proud to present: THE CATALINA AFFAIR The Catalina affair was an incident on June 13, 1952, when a Swedish military Douglas DC-3A-360 Skytrain flying over the Baltic Sea carrying out signals intelligence gathering operations for the Swedish National Defence Radio Establishment (FRA), disappeared east of the isle of Gotska Sandön.

Good luck with it ! As a fellow modder who suddenly has an entire team around him to help him, I just have few words of advice: Always keep your ambitions high, but your goals below the maxium attitude ceiling ;-)

Welcome to the mods. We shall see if the Scandinavian Front team can set you up with a little welcome gift soon ;-) Please remember to have fun at all times ;-).

Winrar can also handle 7zip files pretty good. http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm

Next hint ;-)

"Specially designed for people flying with mouse and key...." I just lost my interest.

We got a little surprise coming up. Guess what it is, and you will get a screenshot before release ;-) Hint: MiG

Here are some stylish pictures of the Vamps:

Just a heads up: For Package updates, check this thread or our Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/TSFMod). I will no longer post patches in new posts on the file page, just update the current one. This to make updating and linking easier. We have done some more work on the Vampires, and progress is beeing made with the Draken as well :)

We always try to find the shortcuts ;-). Sometimes, there are and sometimes there is not. You will however never be ceased to be amazed to what you can do with SF2 Campaign and Scripting tools :)

...and sent for approval. I seriously hope that is the last bug with the cursed ground war - I wish you could tell the game just to use what it had :D - but now the AI should not stall too much. The bug I found pretty much meant there would only be one battle, then the invasion would stall completely. Let me know if you find more.

I found a critical bug in the ground war. A fix is being uploaded, but I would suggest you wait until you can download OpIsbjorn13GW.7z that contains both that fix and a few minor ones.
