Me too!! I know I did their skin for SF2 (ETO) some years back

Didn't you just return to SF!!!??? Well, hell! Good luck, like everyone says, keep alert keep smart and keep safe! With luck, we'll still be here when you get back!

They're there, they just didn't show on that screenie as I numbered the decal ini wrong!!! 29 does NOT come after 20!!!

As seen in the picture below (not necessarily with the white backgound) I seem to remember seem some around, but can't seem to locate them. Does anyone have them? In particular the 300 series thanks!!

looks like a perfect fit! just have to finish the tail BuNums (the little bitty ones) ...

Dude, you're amazing!!

The skin included is for: VA-12 Flying Ubangis , as embarked aboard USS Shangri-la (CVA-38), in the North Atlantic & Mediterranean circa 1960/61 Skins remain in their "as issued via 3W" stock bmp format. Most markings are decals, excepting certain squadron color tags on the rudder and fuselage. These had to be painted on, simply because it was much easier. There are 24 Modex numbers and serial numbers (BuNums). BuNums are historiclly correct; unfortunately, they could not be matched to their corresponding Modex. When on the Loadout screen, for skin/squadron selection, on the Dropdown menu you'll see VA-12 Flying Ubangis (1960/61) As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them .... Also, DO give the Notes section a read as well, for enlightenments, illuminations, and general ramblings. Happy Landings!

Oh, that'd be SUPER Rene!!! Many thanks! I can do the left side, since that just regular oblique, but can't quite get the right!!

seriously? the last post is from almost 10 years ago. I would give that a definate "No"

Also included, are a modified Data and loadout inis, correcting/adding to the Mission tasking, loadouts, Player operated manual canopy, and the landing light. Several new parts are included that correct and add the missing outer Sidewinder rails. The skin included is for: VA-45, Det.1 embarked aboard USS INTREPID circa 1972-73, in the North Atlantic & Mediterranean as part of CVSG-56. Skins remain in their "as issued via 3W" stock bmp format. Most markings are decals, excepting certain squadron tags on the rudder. These had to be painted on due to number-of-decals-per-mesh restrictions. There are 18 Modex numbers and serial numbers (BuNums). VA-45's BuNums are historiclly correct; unfortunately, they could not be matched to their corresponding Modex. Also added, via Magical Ini Dancing (tm) are missile rails for the OUTBOARD pylons, as is correct for all 5-hard-pointed Skyhawks. These are added via the loadout ini through various magical transformations and incantations. They are only used in the "Air-to-Air" tasking (and Recon), and will/do not effect any Strike, CAS, Auntie-Ship or other attack missions. These modification can also be added, using the same data ini edits, to all the A-4E and later models. A lightened and brightened gunsight tga is also included for those of us with weaker eyes. Historically speaking, these A-4 squadrons (and/or detachments) were assigned to the Essex class carriers that had been convered to "CVS" or anti-submarine warfare carriers. The Skyhawks embarked were not only tasked with light strike, but Combat Air Patrols to protect the ship and the ASW assets. The canopy uses the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0. When on the Loadout screen, for skin/squadron selection, on the Dropdown menu you'll see VA-45 Blackbirds Det 1 (CVS-11 1972-3) As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included.

it a model hasn't been mapped, then the lod has no texture statements within (just the applied materials). Without having the max file you'll NOT be able to skin it in any way, as decal statement must also be added to the lod (has decals=true). Just saying ... experimentation will most likely to be true as to the 47's pylons, ever thought of just using decals on them, since the mapping is fucked up? You just need to coordinates and have them facing left or right. Using the fake pilot method "fixes" them in place for all time, all galaxies and all loadouts (been there, done that with Wolf's P-47 Thunderbolts and several other WW2 birds that have mapping issue or missing pylons)

don't say such things on an open forum -- you could get banned from there!!! *** **sorry, the sarcasm don't come through in text!

another thing overlooked... if you have SF2NA, and have the STOCK 3r Wire F-14, there may be a conflict existing between the one in ODS. Meaning: it may be the wrong aircraft looking for the wrong skins (or vice versa), because of 'same named folders'. iirc, didn't that mod pre-date SF2NA, so only the TMF Tomcat would be available? (somebody refresh me memory!)

Scooters on patrol...

indeed, Ravenclaw sent me his US ww2 bombs to test, which I must admit, I have not been doing ....and they LOOK great too!

Is that Alfie I see returning to us!! welcome back man!!

A lot of that is left over from the early 2000s, when we first started building WW2 stuff. IIRC, it's the weight in pounds (obviously!), but the weight in the data ini should be the correct kgs. Those tagged "UK" are the stock 3W, post war (probably post 1955 or later) series; that's why there's no lod. They get referenced from weaponsdata.ini Here's a pdf you might find helpful. I've a full set (i think!) of these, covering German, Japanes, Italian, French Russian and other various explosive stuff OP 1665 British Explosive Ordnance 1946,1970 update.7z
