SWEEEEEEETTT!!! thanks Michael!!

no longer available

all capital letters is considered shouting... shouting is considered rude. Please use regular upper/lower case when posting questions! thank you!

you'll find a LOT of what you're looking for in the downloads section

should be several mods that have that already -- depending on which cockpit you're using. (stock 3W or Razbam?) basically, we've "repurposed" one of the gauges (as there's a LOT in the stock 3W A-6A pit that just was never turned on) so, which pit?

and... the IOWA is on her way to her new home in LA http://www.startribune.com/nation/154887515.html

I LIKE it!!!

if the skins are jpg format, he may not be at the right patch level (at minimum, iirc, Nov 2011)

File Name: US M-1 120mm AAA Gun File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 26 May 2012 File Category: Ground Object Mods US M-1 120mm AAA Gun - For SF2, Any and All - Simple modifications (read: ini edits) create the 1940s-mid 1950s 120mm radar directed US Auntie-Aircraft gun. Based on Pasko's KS-30 130mm, as this is the closest shape available. (unless a 3d guy builds a more accurate one). A new 120mm gun is included. As this gun was radar directed, I took a little poetic liscence, and 'built in' the search/track radar to the data ini itself (ala the ZSU-23 and M-51 Skysweeper). Simple easy to follow instructions are below, in the "To Install" section. Happy Hunting! (or flak dodging!) wrench kevin stein Click here to download this file

not without a new lod, and other specials. you may recall stary's experimenta searchlight mod for WW2 ... had some issues (like range of the light cone) Probably game engine limitation. hey, it's got a radar!! stop complaining!!!

File Name: Eastern Mediterranean Terrain for SF2 File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 26 May 2012 File Category: Full Terrains Eastern Mediterranean Terrain for SF2 = For SF2, Any and All = This is a complete rebuild of the WW2 "North Africa" terrain by Edward, for use in modern time (ie: 1970s-to date). It has been completely rebuilt, from the bottom up, and completely retiled using a 'combo set' of various and sundry imported tiles. Also, there are =MANY= totally new tiles, and their assiciated TODs, that can be used for either the Desert or the IsrealME terrain. Read: lots of new transitions that fill in 99.9% of the blanks of the original tilesets. This terrain does =NOT= have the SF2NA "NavalMap" statement activated, either on the _waterbmp or in any ini. It is designed =ONLY= for ground-based air forces. It is highly suggested it remain as such. The LimitedNations statement is set to TRUE, and Egypt is now classed (on this terrain ONLY!) as a Friendly Nation. Don't be surprised to see IDF birds parked on EAF bases, or EAF birds in Turkey and Greece! This terrain covers the area from the bottom of the Gulf of Sirte (S/E corner), north to central Greece, east to western Turkey (Anatolia), back south to Egypt, as far east as the Suez Canal. Covering the Eastern Med, Crete, Agean Sea, and points in-between. See the planning maps for full coverage. It'll make a nice companion Map for both the Modern Libya, and PureBlue's Anatolia terrains. Those familiar with Edward's orignal WW2 version will recognize the base region, but the targeting and tileing have been completly redone, and is more reflective of the Real World ™. Place names have been changed to local spelling (where discoverable, spellable and pronounable). Expect to find several World Heritage Sites scattered around and, as always, the occasional Easter Egg. Also included is a modifiend SingleMission.ini, that adjusts the minimum values for various missions. Geophysical Disclaimer: some rivers and other water features may not follow their Real Life ™ courses, be placed in their Real Life ™ locations, or exist at all. Several cities and other physical features, and target areas will also fall into that classification. Some target areas (cities, etc) exist only as named places, with no strategic or tactical values. Just someplace to fly over. As always, unzip this to a temp folder or your desktop, and you'll have access to the rest of the readme for it's instructions. It's reccomended you read the document through after unzipping, but -BEFORE- installing. As always, the Notes and Other Nonesense section may make for entertaining reading. Please also read the New Standard Usage Discalimer, as it's been changed slightly to reflect a change in my policy. It's listed at the bottom, in the Legal Statement Section, with the URL back to the CA post. Happy Landings! Wrench Kevin Stein Click here to download this file

OOPOPPS!!!! I did forget the water.bmp line in the main ini, even though the waterbmp exists! That's bascially for shipping routes That will NOT, however, allow for carrier useage. You need to add the 'green freindly naval zones', which will completly f*** up all movement routes -- as we've yet to see a patch tht fixes the 'lack of designated primary targets' on auntie-ship, CAS and Armed recon missions as stated: there really is no need for carrier stations, as this terrain was designed to NOT use them. Of course, for your own personal installs, you're free to do what you like!

File Name: MiG-21MF Fishbed-J, EAF, Hi-Viz Markings File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 24 May 2012 File Category: MiG-21 MiG-21MF, EAF, Hi-Viz Markings = For SF2, Any/All (albeit Designed with SF2:I in Mind) = A simple repaint for the stock MiG-21MF Fishbed-J in Egyptian Air Force service. This skin repsents 'late model' versions with the Hi-Visibiliby Orange Triangles. Based off the stock skin, and run though my Home-Grown Template Set ™; all markings use stock in-game items. This skin makes use of the 'start default year' statment in it's textureset.ini, and is set for 1983. My "best guess" as based on photos and other researched kinda stuff. This skin is in jpg format for post-Nov 2011 patch level. If you are not at that level (for whatever insane reason), you'll have to convert them back to bmp. Also included are slightly modified Data and Loadout inis, making some small, but needed, adjustments. The canopy is activated via the Standard Manual Animation Keystroke ™ -shift/0. The engine sound has been changed to the TMF "MiGEngine.wav", also included. It is also quite possible this skin can be adapted for use on other Fishbed variants, as used by the EAF. As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. Please read them! Obviously, this mod makes the assumption (Oh! That Word!!) you've made this aircraft flyable.

(originally posted on the 3W forums, just before CA came back online...reposting here for ease of whatever...) PB, is there anyway I can talk you into making the lod for Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge (from Anatolia) about 200-250 meters longer??? (extruding more in the center, the ramps are good). I'm using it to span the Gulf of Patras, and it's falling a bit short (as you can see in the screenie). If not, it's no big deal ... i'll replace it with a ship in channel! TIA!!

that last one did the trick!! thanks again!!

already done... just need to write the readme, and upload. the KS-30 is the closest shape, and works just fine! even gots a built-in radar

well, ya never know with dsawan!! be a simple matter to re-ini the existing KS-30 (which is 130mm) or the KS-19P (paskos version, cause it has a crew) to a 120mm AA like less than 5 minutes!

still about 100 meters short -- I HATE being a pain, but could you extend it some more? maybe another 150 ... give some extra length onto the shore line TIA, brudda!!

File Name: AC-47 MiniGun Pak Upgrade File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 25 May 2012 File Category: Single Ordnance Files AC-47 'Spooky' Minigun Model Pak = For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged, Plus Expansion Pak 1 = *Designed with SF2:V in mind* A small update for the recently release AC-47 Spooky. This little mod adds the physical model (Lod) for the 7.62 miniguns, so they show sticking out of the fuselage. These have been added using the FakePilot method, so the "vitural" guns still remain active. The AC-47 Pak can be found here: http://combatace.com/files/file/12984-douglas-ac-47-spooky-gunship-for-sf2/ You'll be applying =THIS= package directly over the existing one, as a new data ini is supplied that mounts the guns. I've also changed the cockpit pilots back to the stock 'bone-dome' versions, as those are more correct. The new miniguns and fakepilot are supplied, so not to worry when installing. As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. Please read them! Also, PLEASE read the "Notes" section -- vital information in there that might assist you in playing this aircraft. With extra special Thank Yous to RussoUK for whipping out the Lod in Max ... this really "ups" the look of the aircraft. As time permits, the AC-47 Full Package will also recieve this update. Good Hunting! wrench kevin stein Click here to download this file

russ, you're the man!!! I can't say how jealous I am of ALL you 3D guys!! my fault for not saying I was usinhg the fake pilot... positioned and looking correct!!! now, all the interior needs is a carpet of shell casing, and a couple of snow shovels (yes, that's what they really used to dump the spent cartridges) update will be uploaded shortly ... again, more thanks that I type!!
