Crusader

Updated decals ini for "Irak Camo" skin. This restores the serial numbers on the nose. Cause is a wrong path to the files. decals.zip

Click on the mesh at the position you want, then use CTRL-C to copy the coordinates and paste them into the data (needs some additional final editing) SAM systems with a separate radar and launcher (like SA-2, HAWK) do not work with them placed as objects in single missions. Only if they are placed by the game engine on targets ini defined SAM_Radar / SAM_Launcher positions. To force a specific system .. my way (if testing things) is to give them the VERY_COMMON availability, disable stock systems, move out other systems from the GroundObjects folder ... set Air Defense to High in the options menu Choose a terrain with many SAM sites and select single mission SEAD ..

You can add more aircraft to your own/players flight in the Roster menu .. click on the pilot lines to add/remove them.

Games downloaded from TW website are up to date, no updates/patches required. And the games can be installed in any order for combined installs.

There were some attempts to do that (SF Crimson Skies) many years ago... around 2003-05.

The 450 gal wing tanks came in 2 variants. One with integral pylon and one for mounting to the existing inboard pylon.

You could add more paint patches on the nose, wing and flap areas of the USN numbers system.. IDFAF would have used their tailfin numbers only, no ?

Much activity there...

And if your own flight has a wingman assigned by the game engine, then go to the Roster menu where you can remove/add wingmen. Done by clicking on the respective line(s).

Ive run missions with EA-6B doing the ESCORT_JAMMER missiontype .. didnt affect player A2A... dont know vs SAM yet. IIRC, the SF2NA Soviet aircraft with ESCORT_JAMMER as primary mission.. the dont have any internal jammers in the data (July 2013) Equipped a EA-6B with three strength 100 noise jammers - the thing was totally invisible on the F-4E radar

Ive tested AI ECM. With a July 2012 game install. ECM pods and decoy pods - both do not work. Ive set up a mission with 3 F-4E_75 in a line in ~55 nm distance. Player aircraft is an F-4E_75 as well. Missions (ECM Test F-4).7z Desert terrain v1 Target configs north to south (left to right from cockpit view, looking East) are: - F-4E_75 without loadout - no ECM - F-4E_75 with strike loadout - ALQ-119 dual-mode jammer - F-4J with internal jammer - deceptive mode I can lock-on both F-4E at max lock range - ALQ-119 makes no difference F-4J must close the distance to about 30-25 nm until I can lock it - internal ECM does work. v2 - same as above, with a 3rd F-4E_75 positioned a short distance in front of the F-4J. Intention was to test if internal ECM prevents acquiring targets flying nearby the jamming aircraft. No problem to lock the F-4E = Internal ECM is just for self-defense. Latest game version is July 2013 - mission needs to be run with it ....

One fraction of a second until confetti....

Inthe loadout ini, some headers are not valid [NavalAviationIntercept] [NavalAviationInterceptLongRange] To use custom headers, you must add some definition lines e.g. [NavalAviationIntercept] Nation=SOVIET (if other than as set in data ini or specific export loadout) StartDefaultDate=M/D/Y format, to make the specific loadut start from a set date DefaultFor=INTERCEPT (( CAP, SWEEP,ESCORT )) to define the mission types this loadout is used with

AA-6D data SpecificStationCode=AA6 Means The wing station must have the same line to be able to load the missile. Or both station and missile must be without the code.

Cant recall exactly, but... SF2 series game installers do not require a fixed install order anymore.. if they are from 2013 (??) and later. Think somebody posted a install order list somewhere for the old installers.

Yep, if the cone is positioned/animated in the retracted position... I had to change the values compared to the fix for the TMF Mirages... different 0 position/animation setup.

It is a mod of the FLIGHTENGINE ini (must be extracted and placed into Flight folder) WorldSettings section [WorldSettings] SectorWidth=20 SectorHeight=20 SectorMaxObject=512 //Border=80000.0 Border=35000.0 MinHeight=1.0 MaxHeight=35000.0 80000 is the default value. That doesnt work anymore since the (at least) mid-2012 game versions and later.

Update for the Mirage Factory MiG-21 and J-7 F-7 series Will also work with RussoUK's MiG-21 and F-7 mods (based on the same model), CHECK for correct AnimationID # In the data ini, replace the AIRTAKE section : [AIRTAKE] SystemType=HIGHLIFT_DEVICE DeploymentMethod=AUTOMATIC_MACH SmoothDeployment=TRUE FullyDeployOnGround=FALSE Setting[1].Angle=0.00 Setting[1].DeployValue=1.50 Setting[2].Angle=0.50 Setting[2].DeployValue=1.51 Setting[3].Angle=0.50 Setting[3].DeployValue=1.9 Setting[4].Angle=1.00 Setting[4].DeployValue=1.91 MaxDeflection=1.0 MinDeflection=0.0 ControlRate=0.50 AnimationID=5 // 0 pos = cone retracted // retracted to M 1.5 / middle pos. between M 1.5 to 1.9, extended M 1.9 + Update for the cockpit ini for the cone position indicator Replace CNA section [CNA] Type=EXTERNAL_ANIMATION_LINK ItemNumber=5 NodeName=ConoNariz MovementType=ROTATION_Z // cones retracted reading is 0 % // needle 0 // -90 = 0 % // 70 = 50 % // 230 = 100 % Set[01].Position=-90.0 Set[01].Value=0.0 Set[02].Position=70.0 Set[02].Value=0.5 Set[03].Position=230.0 Set[03].Value=1.0

Nice! Your R550-launch screenshot... taken just at the right time
