SF2 WW2 B-24D Liberator, MTO Pak by Veltro2K 4/28/2014
(Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended)
**Having a merged install is reccomended, as the destroyed model references the stock 3W An-12**
 
This pack contains a NEW aircrft, by Veltro2k; the B-24D Liberator as seen in the MTO. This is the 2nd in a series of "theatre specific" versions for use in the various theatres (obviously!) of WW2.
REMINDER: this is for MTO usage ONLY!!!
 
The unit(s) represented herein are:
 
514th BS, 376th BG, as based in Egypt & Libya. The aircraft is finished in 'desert pink' and neutral grey.
 
The skins are in jpg format. All markings are decals (excepting the wing national markings). This will make it easier for other texture artists to create other units. The serials are 'generic' in nature, as they represent no particular unit, but ARE for the model variant depicted. Decal randomization is set to TRUE. There ARE nose arts, the 1st 12 are from the original Pasko release, the others are from my "stock" of nose art decals. These should NOT be considered historical in any way, shape or form. They're just nice to look at.
Weapons and guns are NOT included; you should have them already.
All the 1stGen Hangar and Loading screens were either rebuilt to SF2-spec, or created new for this package. They are in jpg format. Damage textures are new, in DDS format.
 
When in game you'll see:
 
B-24D Liberator (v2k)
 
This will differentiate this Lib from any others you may have (ie: Pasko's).
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! PLEASE read the "Notes" section for other important notations, in particular for in-game usage.

Vought F4U-1 "Birdcage" Corsair Generic USMC Skin Pak (TMF/MM) 7/27/2013
 
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
= For WW2 PTO Usage ONLY on the TMF/MM Birdcage Corsair!!! =
 
This is a 'generic' USMC skin and decal pack for the TMF/MM F4U-1 "Birdcage" Corsair. The aircraft is finished in the late 1943 "3 Tone Camo", and has the 3 digit aircraft ID numbering. These numbers represent the last 3 digits of the BuNum, and was the fairly standard way land base USMC squadrons used on their aircraft. The aircraft carries the standard late 43 blue Star-and-Bar.
 
This skins is in jpg format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. Although 'named' for VMF124 (L for Late), it is designed to represent NO particular USMC squadron. It also used the SF2 'time switch' to "turn on" this skin in October, 1943.
 
A new Data ini is also provided, with changes/tweeks that 'fix' some issues caused by the 5/13 and 7/13 patches. With luck, they won't need messing with again!

-- For SF2, Any and All Versions
 
(Full-4 Merged reccomended, and/or SF2V due to the use of the destroyed A-1 Skyraider model*)
 
Many modifications and a complete reskin of Wolf257s F4U Corsair into those as used by the El Salvadoran Air Force. This is a complete aircraft, ready to unzip and fly away. Weapons, sounds, skins, decals, etc (for the most part!) are all included. This is basically the version I released in 2009, now uprated for SF2 usage with a new flight model and other minor tweeks.
 
This mod makes use of the latest patch level tweeks for randomization of aircraft serial/ID numbers. So, make sure you're at least at June 2011 or above level. Included are a new SF2-style hangar screen, some weapons, engine sound and a pilot figure. A Userlist is included, even though this is a "Nationalized" version. The WW2-era bombs are NOT included; you can find them in the GunnyPak, or edit the loadout ini to use stock 3rdWire ones, if you have SF2:Is Expansion Pak 1.
 
As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs/requires/should have, to make it a LOT easier to install.

This is a modification of The Mirage Factory's F4U-7 (French Navy version), into the earlier, and almost identical (albiet modified), F4U-5 version as used by the Honduran Air Force in the 1950s and 60s. TMF original -7 readme is included. This is an SF2 revamp of the version I uploaded a few years ago.

This is a COMPLETE aircraft, with almost all the trimmings, ready to unzip and fly away. Many tweeks have been performed on this, mostly by Column5 to the FlightModel. Some data ini mods by me (duplicating the HVAR stations) alow for wingfold and the ordanance to "stay put" the pylons. Canopy & wingfold is activated by manual animation keys; use Shift/0 for the canopy, Shift/9 for wingfold. Obviously, the FAH dosen't have carriers, but research indicated that the wingfold was never disabled. As always, all the external lighting has been updated to be historically/mechanically correct.
 
As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs/requires/should have, to make it a LOT easier to install. Also, please review the Legal disclaimers at the bottom - some changes have been implimented.

Designed for use =ONLY= in a stand-alone SF2-based WW2 PTO Mods Folder!!!
 
*Note: Full-5 Merged reccomended, due to the use of SF2NA style 'carrier based' statements in the
aircraft's data inis. Working WW2-era aircraft carriers (and escorts) are required as well as
Terrains with working SF2NA-style _water.bmps and NavalMap=TRUE). There is a 98.6% probability that
this mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, due to the excessive modifications made to
fit them into the SF2 environment.
Please note, that in the case of NavalMap Terrains, USMC & RNZAF
aircraft =WILL= be flying off carriers, regardless that said aircraft versions/squadrons did or did
not in Real Life ™. It's a Game Engine "bug" that can only be fixed by have both a land-based and
carrier-based version of the aircraft (ie: "Nationalized")*
 
This is a compliation of all the work done to date on Wolf257's Corsairs, from 1stGen WW2 mods, converted, adjusted,tweeked, etc, for use in the SF2 environment. This package is designed (read: WILL) replace all other
previously released versions/variants/mods of these aircraft.
 
This package holds 6 complete aircraft, with all their skins and decals:
 
Corsair MK.IV (RNFAA- BPF)
F4U-1 (USMC Birdcage 'Stand In')
F4U-1A (USN, USMC, RNZAF)
F4U-1D (USN, USMC, RNZAF)
F4U-2 (Radar Equiped Nightfighter; USN, USMC)
F4U-4 (USN, USMC) *by TMF, specific for WW2*
 
For squadrons represented, just look in each aircraft's folder.
 
New cockpits, from the TMF -4/-7/AU-1 are being used on the Mk.IV, -1D. The -2 is using the radar-
equiped cockpit from the -5N. While not fully hisorically correct, they have the proper "look and
feel" for the era. The -1 & -1A still uses the original Wolf cockpit. With a small "enhancement"
Data inis (FM), loadouts, userlists, etc meet (almost, FM-wise) the latest standard. All skins are in
Jpg format, and decal randomization is TURE. See 'Notes' for more details.
All weapons are included, in SF2 formatting, as are sounds and a pilot figure.
 
Supplied, for Optional Use, is a slightly modified SquadronList.ini, with small name changes to some
USN & USMC squadrons, that may (or may not!) show the correct squadron name on the Loadout Screen.
Also supplied is a 'backdated' SCB-125_Data.ini for SF2NA users that will allow the anachronism of a
1950s-era angled-deck Essex class CV to work in WW2 (that also has =NO= working guns!!).

NAA P-51D Mustang, Fuerza Aérea Salvadoreña (El Salvador Air Force) for SF/WoV/WoE/WoI and probably SF2
 
-Part of an on-going series of mod recreating Central American Airpower
 
Modifications, and a complete reskin of Wolf257s P-51D Mustang into those as used by the El Salvadoran Air Force.
This is a SEMI-COMPLETE aircraft mod, as per Wolf's wishes, the aircraft LOD is NOT included. However, EVERYTHING else is; cockpit, inis, skin, decals and so forth.
 
The skins, from my "enhanced" template, have my patented "interperative" panel, rivet lines and other details.New decals for the individual aircraft are from historical listings. The numbers.lst, while included, is NOT active, to prevent 'running out of numbers in game'. It's just renamed, so it's easy to reactiveate it.
The camo pattern, also is "interperative" at best. Much conflicting data exists as to how and with what colors the FAS painted their Mustangs, as well as the pattern used. This should be considered a 'generic' style, blending what data I could find into something reasonably passable (or as they used to say, 'reasonable facsimile thereof) the schemes as used.
 
You also get a new WoE style Hangar screen, all the weapons WW2 style weapons are included in the new "folder format" for use in post-patch installs, -and- in EACH weapons folder is a ***_data.ini as used by SF2. Unfortunately, as I don't have SF2, some experimentation on your part will be required to install and get them up and running. (meaning, I'm not sure how the numberation runs...)
 
This mod is designed for use with, I'm hoping, ANY weapons pak. You may just need to add a few things.
 
= IMPORTANT: This aircraft has been tested in Post-Patch SF/WoV/WoE/WoI. Be advised of the existence of some handling issues prevelant in WW2 era and many Pre-Patch (ie: 06 level) aircraft. Fly accordingly!!! It should also work in SF2 and later iterations - this has NOT been tested, however.
 
=MORE IMPORTANT: You =MUST= have Wolf's WW2 Planes Pak to get the LOD from. It is NOT included!!=
 
As per usual, there's a nice readme involved with installation, so give a look at, please!

This pak contains -almost- everything you'll need to create this new version, minus a few critical files that you'll need to copy from the original F4U-7. So you MUST have the -7 somewhere to copy them from. If not, you can download it from Check6 (TMF Home Site), Column5 or CombatAce
 
This is to be considered as an "incomplete" aircraft mod, due to the non-inclusion of certain files. I've NOT included the aircraft LOD files nor the cockpit folder. See below "To Install" for a complete list of the necessary parts.
 
I've included all the inis I've modified, so you'll be copying the minimum number of bits. You also get a new WoE style Hangar screen, all the weapons in the new "folder format" for use in post-patch installs, and in EACH weapons folder is a _data.ini as used by SF2. Unfortunately, as I don't have SF2, some experimentation on your part will be required to install and get them up and running.
 
The skins are "pieces parts", dejumbled together from the stock ones that came with the aircraft when released. New, historical individual number decals are included. The numbers.lst, while included, is NOT active, to prevent 'running out of numbers in game'. It's just renamed, so it's easy to reactiveate it.

SF2 Lockheed RT-33A Shooting Star Pak by ErikGen 3/25/2014
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
This package contains a new aircraft for SF2. Originally part of the KAW F-80/T-33A/RF-80 pak, it somehow slipped under the radar (which Recon birds are supposed to do!!).
 
*Note: as this aircraft were built with the latest 3W exporter, it will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen Installs at any patch level.*
 
Like the other Shooting Stars, this is a complete pak with everything needed.
The skins included are:
 
USAF (Generic style markings)
Natural Metal (uses stock 3W decals; generic for everyone else)
 
Skins and damage textures are in DDS format. Decal randomization is TRUE.
The USAF skin uses painted on national marking, the "Natural Metal" does not; all marking will be decals. Generic "plane-in-group" decals reference stock 3W numbers.
Serial numbers are 100% historically correct for T-33s, but should be considered generic in nature, as they represent no particular unit or aircraft within a particular unit.
The "Generic NM" skin will be a good, blank canvas for other users to be created. All decal positions are pre-plotted on the included decals ini. Some adjustments may be necessary for specific country users, but that's a simple matter of creating a new, country specific skin and replotting the decal locations.
It's also know to me that Soulfreak has some other skins in the works; when released, these will be great additions for your flying pleasure!
Drop tanks are 'built in' to the aircraft lod; weapons folders for the drop tanks are included, as are the pilot figures and seat. As this is a recon bird, it's limited to ONLY RECON, and carries no weapons or guns of any kind.
The canopy is controlled via the Standard Animations Keystroke ™, Shift/0.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. There are "Operational Notations" with other impertinant data you should know.

SF2 WW2/Post-War Lockheed P-38L Lightning 4/9/2014
 
-- Something for, well, Anyone! --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
Some mods for Wolf257's P-38L Lightning give you a version for late WW2 and the early Post War Time frame.
While keeping the standard WW2 start date, the service time has been extended to include some use by the newly formed USAF (post October, 1947). Meaning, retirement date is December 1949 (approximately true!). This is =NOT= a "What If..." aircraft.
 
2 skins are included, both are in Natural Metal. They're names are:
 
NM (a generic type, with plane-in-group numbers)
USAF (with post-1947 markings)
 
There are no squadron or unit markings for either skin. There is litterally NO data available.
The NM skin can be used pretty much anywere for WW2. The USAF skin will automtically "switch on" in 10/1947.
All new skins (now with rivets!!) are in jpg format. Both aircraft use a 'pool' of Serial numbers and they should be considered 'generic' in nature, but ARE for the model variant depicted. The post-1947 skin has the addition of "Buzz Numbers", that have the correct letter prefix assigned to P-38s
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. All weapons, sounds, and a pilot figure are included. Both skins have individual Hangar Screens.
 
When in game, you'll see:
 
P-38L Lightning (Post War) (w)
 
This, and the folder being name "P-38L_pw" will seperate it from any WW2 types you may have. The "PW" is for "Post War". The "W" is for Wolf, further diferentiating this from other Lightnings that you may or may not have.

SF2 AD-4W/AEW.1 "Guppy" 4/1/2014
 
= For SF2, Full 5 Merged RECCOMENDED! =
 
**Note: Actually, SF2NA is actually -REQUIRED- in merged installs, due to NA coding used for
this aircraft's operational statements. It is also HIGHLY SUGGESTED!! that this be
=ONLY= used in the NA envrionment (read: in SF2:NA only). It was tested only in the
NA environment, but there are a few issues (see Notes below).***
 
A rebuild of MontyCZ's A-1H Skyraider give us the AD-4W "Guppy" Naval Airborne Early
Warning aircraft of the 1950s.
 
Included are 4 skins, representing the aircrft from 1950 through 1960. They are:
 
USN:
VC-11
 
USMC:
VMC-1
 
British Royal Navy (AEW.1)
No 849 Naval Air Squadron; in 'normal' garb
No 849 NAS, HMS Albion, during the Suez Crisis (with Suez 'Invasion Stripes')
 
The USN/USMC skins use a painted on fueselage national marking (not enough meshes
for all decals); All other markings are decals. All aircraft are in 'standard' Dark
Gloss Navy Blue. For the RN skins, ALL markings are decals. Serial numbers are 100%
historically accurate for the model depicted, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. As
there is no possible way to run down the US serials, they should be considered
'generic' in nature.
However, you may experience some 'unusual' shuffling' of the CV and Flight letter
codes on the Royal Navy (non Suez) skin. Further explinations for this are in the
'Notes' Section. The Suez skin depicts 849's "C" flight as embarked during Operation
Musketeer, and are 100% correct.
 
Skins remain in lo-rez bmp format, but new DDS damage textures are supplied (just in
case). Each skins has it's own hangar screen.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included.
So, please read them. As mentioned above, give the "Notes" section a read too.

EC 3/20 "Oranie"
 
as seen in Algeria in the early 1960s.
 
All skins are in jpg format. All markings, excepting the squadron color bands, are decals. Recal randomization is TRUE. The aircraft BuNums are 100% correct for those Skyraiders in French service, but should be considered "generic" in nature as they do not represent any individual aircraft in any particular squadron.

screen.
Included are modified data and loadout, userlist & main inis. For you viewing
pleasure, a brand NEW SF2-style Hangar screen. The assumption (oh! that word!!)
is being made that you've already made the aircraft player flyable, so no
cockpit bits are included. However, my "One Click Restore Main Ini" (patent
pending) is.
No weapons (bombs and guns) are included, as all stock items are being used,
but a drip tank is.
The canopy has been activated via the Standard Animation Keystroke ™,
Shift/0.
All markings are decals (excepting SEAC bands), and decal randomization is TRUE
(but is acting quite "oddly" for some reason).
 
*Please Note: if you have PauloPanz's EXCELLENT Spit 14 skin pak, you may want
to backup and compare his data ini to mine. You may also want to create a NEW
One Click Restore ini ™, after it automaticly adds his skins -- See notes
for changes.*
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are
included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
Happy Landings!!

SF2 WW2 ETO Short Stirling Tweeks Pak 3/26/2014
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
 
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
Some tweeks for Veltro2K's recently released Stirling Mk.I. What this pack does, is activate ALL the included Squadron Code decals by creating skin folders for those squadrons.
 
If you don't have it already, you can get the aircraft at the following link:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/14668-short-stirling-mk1/
 
(in other words, install the aircraft 1st, THEN this Tweeks Pack)
 
As the decals and the ini in the above release are set up for the as-yet-to-be-released ETO All Inclusive mod by the DAT, we are missing the necessary files to create the selection drop down to choose which squadron gets what.
This mod creates new skin folders, albeit with the original skin maps (more on that later), and activates the squadron code decals for the following RAF Bomber Command units:
 
No. 7 Squadron
No. 15 Squadron
No. 75 "New Zealand" Squadron (original NCamo skin)
No. 90 Squadron
No. 149 "East India" Squadron
No. 214 "Federated Malay States" Squadron
No. 218 "Gold Coast" Squadron
 
The Squadron crest for each is used for the 'color patch' as seen on the Loadout Screen.
My (patent pending) "Box Art" Hangar and Loading screens are included, as are new DDS damage textures.
 
You will be moving (read: copy/paste) the original skin maps to the MAIN aircraft folder (ala Brain 32's trick). As all BC aircraft of the time were painted the same, this creates no issues.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them after unzipping, but BEFORE installing, and FOLLOW them exactly as I've written them!!!
 
Caveat:
 
BE ADVISED, THIS MOD IS =NOT= TO BE USED WHEN THE DAT RELEASES THEIR ETO PAK. IT IS DESIGNED FOR USE ONLY BY THOSE END USERS ™ THAT CANNOT ACCESS THEIR DOWNLOADS. IT IS DESIGNED FOR USE IN A STANDARD OR "GARDEN VARIETY" WW2 ETO MODS FOLDER, =NOT= FOR THEIR ALL-INCLUSIVE MOD.
 
Happy Landings!!

SF2 WW2 SEAC Bristol Beaufighter NF Mk.1 (Late), v.9 by Cocas 3/26/2014
 
-- Something for the WW2 CBI/SEAC players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, at any patch level. It was built for SF2 ONLY!!.*
 
*Note x2: This mod represents late production Beau NF Mk.1s for South East Asia Command ONLY! This is a seperate version for CBI usage ONLY, as their start/end dates tend to differ. Meaning: for your CBI Mods Folder.*
This here is a BRAND NEW aircraft, brought to you by Cocas Aircraft Factory & Co. . This package represents the late production Beaufighter NF Mk.1s. These marks =HAVE= the dihedral horizontal stabs (they point up).
We are calling this "version 0.9", as there exists the possibility of more work being required. But, we wanted to get them out into the hands of our WW2 End Users ™ for their examination and so forth.
 
This pack contains the following aircraft & skin/decal sets:
 
Beaufighter NF Mk.1 (Night Fighter) in Standard SEAC Day Scheme, with Night Unders
 
No. 176 Squadron (as seen at various airbase in East Bengal)
 
The Squadron Crest is used as the paint chip seen on the Loadout Screen.
Skins are in jpg format, as are the bump maps. Damage textures are in DDS. Everything is included, excepting the guns (you should have all these already). No bombs or rockets; these are NF Mk.1s, not equipped for them. However, I've allowed you other mission statements, in particular, Armed Recon. You've got plenty of 'gun power' for Truck Hunting.
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. It should be noted, that research has indicated varying numbers of NF Mk.1s arriving in India - some sources say 6, some 8, some 12. I've taken the lazy mans way out, and given you the 'generic' 26 plane-in-group letters. In Real Life ™, Mk. VI, Mk.X and TF Mk.X began arriving in theatre sometime in mid-late 1943.
All serials, while correct for the variant depicted, should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they represent no specific aircraft with the units represented.
 
When in-game, you'll see:
 
Beaufighter NF Mk.I (Late) (CAF)
 
for these aircraft. The "CAF" (for Cocas Aircraft Factory) will diferentiate these Beaus from any others you may or may not have.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please =READ= them BEFORE installing this mod!!!. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
 
Happy Hunting!

SF2 WW2 MTO Lockheed P-38J, 1st FG 3/1/2014
 
-- Something for the WW2 MTO players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
This is a 'remod' package, fully revamping some earlier 1stGen skins by Gocad for Wolf257's P-38J Lightning. This is the full aircraft package, with all the goodies included (weapons, pilot, sounds, cockpit, etc).
 
This package represents the 1st FG during late 1944 through war's end, as based in Italy. This is all 3 squadrons:
 
27th FS
71st FS
94th FS
 
All new skins (now with rivets!!) are in jpg format. Each squadron has the correct plane-in-squadron numbering sequence, and squadron color flashes. All aircraft use a 'pool' of Serial numbers, and they should be considered 'generic' in nature, but ARE for the model variant depicted.
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. Each skin is represented by the WW2 squadron patch, as seen on the Loadout screen selection drop-down menu.
 
When in game, you'll see:
 
P-38J Lightning (W)
 
The W is for Wolf257. This will diferentiate this P-38J for any other you may (or may not) have.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!
 
Good Hunting!

SF2 WW2 PTO P-38F/G Lightning Pak 3/20/2014
 
-- Something for the PTO players --
 
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*There is a distinct possibility that this mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, due to the excessive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment.*
 
Mods/reskins/redecaling for Wolf257's P-38F aircaft. This pak replaces my SF/Wo* 1stGen 'generic' PTO P-38F. It is designed to represent P-38F/G model Lightnings as seen in the SoWesPac Theatre, in particular the Solomons Islands.
 
The aircraft carries the markings of the 339th FS, 347th FG as seen in late 1942 through late 43. This is pretty representative of all early Lightings in theatre at this time frame.
 
This is the full aircraft, and is complete with everything needed (except bombs & guns; you should have these already).
The skin is in jpg format (now! with rivets!), Decal Randomization is TRUE. Damage textures are DDS format.
 
When In Game, you'll see
 
P-38F Lightning (W)
 
The (W) indicates this as a Wolf257 aircraft, and will differentiate it from any other P-38Fs you may (or may not) have.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them.
Remember -- these are very old models, so they "are as they is". All original readmes, when discoverable, are included.
 
Good Hunting!

SF2 WW2 RAF SEAC Douglas Dakota Skin Pak 3/20/2014
 
-- Something for the WW2 CBI players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged, + Expansion Pak 1 (REQUIRED!) =
 
*You must have SF2:I Exp Pak 1, as this mod REQUIRES the stock 3W C-47*
 
This pak contains Skin/Decal mods for the Stock 3rd Wire C-47A, representing RAF Dakota's in WW2, in the India/Burma (SEAC) theatre. None of my research has turned up an information if they were camoflagued, so the aircraft is in standard OD/Grey.
 
Supplied are 26 plane-in group letters and RAF serial number decals. The serials, while correct for the Dakota, represent no particular unit and should be considered 'generic' in nature. There are NO squadron codes.
Decal randomization is TRUE
Also supplied is an updated/edited/adjusted C-47A User list, with many corrected dates.
 
*NOTE: this skin pak is for RAF Daks in SEAC =ONLY=!!! Read: your CBI mods folder.*
 
This little mod comes about as I'm sick and tired of seeing Dakota's parked on my terrains, with incorrect WW2 theatre markings (while not perfect even WITH this, they're a LOT closer!)
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please =READ= them BEFORE installing this mod!!!

P-38F Lightining, 94th Fighter Squadron; for SF/SFG/WoV/WoE MTO Installs
 
This is a new skin for Wolf257's Lightinig, and my mod of it into the P-38F Lightning. It is desinged to replace the "Generic OD1943" skin for use in your MTO-themed WW2 game install.
 
This skin is based off Wolf's original templates that came with his "WW2 Planes Pak", that I've made a few little enhancements too. New panel lines, weathering and some detail work to the interior sections have been added (look around, and you'll find them!)
All new decals for serial and ID letters have been created, to represent aircraft from the 94th Fighter Squadron "Hat In The Ring", 1st Fighter Group as they appeared when in service in North Africa/MTO during late 1942 through late 1943. Hence, the use of the Operation Torch yellow-outlined fuselage star, and the plane star roundel on the wings. Research seems to indicate the yellow-outline was used by the 94th well into 1943, until replaced by the red-outlined star-and-bar, which only lasted a few months itself before being replaced by the blue-outlined star-and-bar. Then they moved up to later model Lightnings, in OD/Gray and then to Natural Metal finish.
Serial numbers ARE accurate for F model Lightnings, but I was unable to match ID letters to serials, excepting for UN-Q; that one IS the correct serial. Consider the serials as "generic" for this usage.
 
As always, it's reccomended you unzip this package to a temp folder or your desktop, or somewhere's else that's easy to find to gain access to the rest of this readme for full, detailed install instructions.
 
Happy Landings!

SF2 DLC #28: F-104C (66) Starfighter Skins/Ini Pak, Part 2 3/15/2014
 
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged, =WITH= DLC #28 (Full-5 Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*DLC #28 is REQUIRED for this mod!!*
 
Please note, this pack is set up for the F-104C_66 variant from the DLC pak
(WITH refueling probe) =ONLY=!!!
This pack contains skins/decals for the following units:
 
435th TFS, 479th TFW, as based at Udorn RTAFB (and attached to 8th TFW)
 
Post-Vietnam:
198th FIS, Pureto Rico ANG
 
The PRANG skin has a start date of 1969, and will automaticly switch.
All aircraft are in standard SEA camo finish.
All markings are decals, and decal Randomization is TRUE. 100% historical
serial numbers (all 77, new decals) are included. Nose Art decals are included
for the 435th Skin; the aircraft are 'named' in the numbers.lst. The PRANG
skin, which only uses 26 numbers, are in the later (post-10 years operational)
style.
 
The inis included are:
Data.ini (operable canopy, Standard Keystroke, Shift/0)
Loadout ini
main ini
Hangar screen (an SF2 revamped version of the 1stGen's F-104G)
Loadout image (bmp)
Avionics. ini (see "Notes" for more information)
Cockpit.ini, (see "Notes" for more information)
Please note, the cockpit itself is =NOT= included -- you'll have to find the
F-104G's pit on your own.
 
When in game, just to be sure, you'll see "F-104C Starfighter (66) (3W)". This
will differentiate it from the 1stGen mods (see below, as an added safety
precaution).
 
When installing, just allow the overwrite of the inis. I've fiddled with the
skin listing order, to make them more user friendly. Also included is my
(patent pending) 'One Click Restore Main ini' for when the game engine ™
rewirtes it.
 
Also, if you have ANY of the original Ajundair F-104Cs ported over to SF2, you
are ADIVSED to rename ALL the folders (aircraft and decals), back them up or
remove them from your mods folder BEFORE installing this package. There is a
distinct possibility that this mod may merge with them, and really and truely
foul things up!
 
*REMINDER!!! You =MUST= have DLC #28 to access the aircraft's LOD.*
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are
included. So, please -READ- them!!
 
Happy Hunting!
