F-16A Falcon, Generic USAF/NATO Gray Skin/Decal/Ini Pak = For SF2, Full-4 Merged Required =* *Note: at minimum, you =MUST= have SF2:I, as this mod references the cockpit, aircraft and other required items =ONLY= found within a Full-4 or SF2:I. If you don't meet these minimium criteria, don't D/L this, as you wont be able to use it* This package expands on the work of MigBuster and others, and will allow for the creation of a stock 3W F-16A (probably Blks 1-10, although I'm not as 'up' on Falcon block numbers as I should be...). A complete set of inis are included, fully updated as of Nov, 2011. Newly added is a Userlist.ini, although this may need expansion/clarification of StartYear dates. Changes are welcomed and encourged! -Remember, this is the Early Production A model only!! All new Hangar and Loading screens are included. The canopy operates via a manual animation key (Shift/0, as always). Other Ini edits remove the internal jammer, and add one to the external centerline position, and other small Loadout modifications. See "Notes" below for more info. It should be noted at this time, that seperate from the main section of this download, are 'fixed' Decal and Textureset inis for MigBuster's F-16A skins. These skins are NOT included. You can find them in the SF2 Aircraft Skins download section (links are supplied in the "To Install" section below). BE ADVISED: install his -first!!-, then add the inis I've supplied. See below for more info on the "MigBuster Skin Fixes" in the "To Install" section. As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!! Also, don't forget the "Notes" section for expansive esplainations and other illuminations. Happy Landings! wrench kevin stein -

actually, that's the stock skin, just rebadged === you'd think the Dauntless would have flush rivets, but having seen real ones -- and that pic REALLY shows it -- they didn't! -

XvT/BoP Alliance Operation "Battles in the Outer Rim Territories"
Wrench posted a topic in Star Wars File Announcements
File Name: XvT/BoP Alliance Operation "Battles in the Outer Rim Territories" File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 06 March 2015 File Category: Star Wars Games XvT/BoP Alliance Operation "Battles in the Outer Rim Territories" For XvT =WITH= BoP addon (original CD) or the new GoG version ORT provides over eighty new missions over five new tours of duty. The timeline is from approximately Hoth to the Battle of Endor (sorry, on 2nd Death Star runs, but the aftermath of), and into the post-Imperial era, and the formation of the New Republic. These have been converted for use in XvT/BoP, in BoP format due to the need for BWs and other ships only available there. All stock ships are used, so no ship patch is requried (other than having the BoP addon if using the XWCD. The new GoG versions already have what's needed). In many of the missions, you'll be able to fly more than one flight of starfighter. In later missions, (post-Hoth) CM pods have been pre-loaded. As always, =PLEASE= read the install instructions. Also, the original builders and my notes at the bottom! The large(ish) description, from the original 1990s readme, is located at the bottom of this document.

Wings over Korea all-in-one pak?
Wrench replied to Do335's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
your data ini fixed the carrier issue (except for landings .. on autopilot and AI, they just float over the deck, and bounce off into the sea. but that, I'm sure, is just fine tuning of something somewhere in there!) ok, that's some weird shit ... I don't have those first 3 lods. at all!! that's what my main ini says. and the wings and canopy still don't work. wonder if it's the missing 3 lods?? Can you shoot those too me? -
Wings over Korea all-in-one pak?
Wrench replied to Do335's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
right! took 4 hours to dial the f**ckers in!! LOL!! the Seafury I'd gotten from you eailer, the whole package, iirc, was Simons. But I'll definatelly check this one out. I tested it (the skippybing one) on the CVs yesterday, and it flips over and blows up before falling though the deck and sinking. Most assuredly needs more work! -

Wrench replied to Do335's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
so, the date of your lod is what?? mine is "SeaFuryHighRes.LOD", dated 1/19/2011 I don't have the Sea Fury max files (not that I could do anything with them, other than open them in MAX and view -- still haven't started learning HOW to use Max2009) I finished dialing in the lights this afternoon. the hard way... also, using this lod, and mue's new viewer, I don't see any anims assigned for wing or canopy -

afaik, FC and some other were trying to finish their Meteor F.8. I have (alexs?) max files and a "very early" in-game version of his B-45 Tornado the aforementioned sea fury (skinned and decaled for 802 NAS) as mentioned, needs animations figured out for canopy and wingfold; lights all need dialing in (lights not a big deal) below, is how it looks as of yesturday -

Lloyd, I moved this from the KB to where people might actually see it... ----------- to the best of my knowledge, based on some tweeks Crusader provided for the Bf-109s, it does NOT change the rate of fire or anything else. -
yeah, that's just over a mile west of me. was hearing the choppers for about an half hour before I checked the local tv news to see what was going on (was actually on the phone with fubar at the time!). Good job in getting it down, and not getting too badly hurt, or smashing into houses. Pity about the plane, though Pen Mar golf course is also prominentely featured in the move "2010" during the destruction of LA sequence (and my house is just east of the airport, and so falls into a vast fissure that opens up, along with the airport itself!)
