View File SF2 McDonnell F2H-2 Banshee (KAW) by Veltro2K SF2 McDonnell F2H-2 Banshee by Veltro2K 9/15/2020 -For SF2, Any and All (Full 5 Merged Recommended) "Quarantine Approved - Essential Mods" This package contains a new aircraft, the McDonnell F2H-2 Banshee, as used by the US Navy during the Korean War. That being said, this package =ONLY= contains those units that participated in the conflict. There are 4 units (skins) included in this package. In chronological order: VF-172 Blue Bolts (USS ESSEX, 1951) VF-11 Red Rippers (USS KEARSARGE, 1952) VF-22 Cavaliers - VF-62 Gladiators (both aboard USS LAKE CHAMPLAIN, 1953) The textureset inis for all skins has a listing of the exact dates of deployment. All markings, excepting squadron color bands, are decals. Decal Randomization is TRUE. 24 Modex numbers are supplied for each unit. The 24 'data plaque" BuNums are a pool shared among all the aircraft. Those units that are listed in the game's Squadron List, have their Displayed Name activated by my Patent-Pending 'Fake SqTail' decal. All weapons, sounds, and a pilot figure are supplied. New "box-art" style hangar and loading screens are also included, as is a spare "photo" style loading screen if you get bored with the painting. Wingfold and canopy operations are the Standard Animation Keystrokes (tm), Shift/0 (zero) for the canopy, and Shift/9 for the wings. When in-game, you'll see F2H-2 Banshee (V2K) on the aircraft selection drop-down list. This will diferentiate it from any other Banshees you may, or may not, have. As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. Also, =PLEASE= read the 'Notes' section for other IMPORTANT information on in-game operations. Happy Landings! Wrench Kevin Stein Submitter Wrench Submitted 10/01/2020 Category Other

No folding wings on those, iirc. So, any set parking slots for deck will be far too small. Just eye candy ... i wouldn't sweat it

It's also exceedingly random in choosing Red Side. Based upon availability, exported yes/no, users (like EJ said) and general chaos theory <gr>

I forgot to mention in the read-me, that I REALLY recommend using the free-camera view, and 'vist' the Arizona Memorial. You can 'fly' through the entrance, into the 3 rooms. In the last room, the shrine, you can read the names of the fallen on the wall. We've never had ANYTHING even remotely like this in any of the SF games*, and I can't thank Swambast enough for taking the time to build it. *including FastCargo's Gateway Arch in St.Louis in the Mid-West USA map

View File SF2 Hawaii/Northern Pacific Terrain, Modern (v.2) SF2 Hawaii/Northern Pacific Terrain, Modern (v.2) 9/5/2020 - For SF2, Any & All (Full-5 Merged, + Expansion Paks REQUIRED!!!) This is a rebuild of the WW2 Hawaiian Islands terrain into a more "modern" version (1950s and later). This is NOT a WW2 version; it is for post-war into modern times. Do NOT use this in your WW2 PTO mods folder!! You must also have SF2NA are part of you merged installs. This was built and tested in the NA environment. You may experience longer than normal loading times due to the number of terrain objects. It should be noted, due to the inherent scaling issue in the SF series, objects placed herein are, for the most part, representative of their Real World counterparts. See "Notes" for more information. When in game, on the Terrain Selection drop-down, you'll see: Hawaii (Modern) Even though the folder remains in it's original name of just "Hawaii". As is recommended, unzip this archive to a temp folder or your desktop, and you'll have access to the rest of the readme for it's instructions. It's recommended you -read- the document through after unzipping, but =BEFORE= installing. As always, the "Notes and Other Nonsense" section may make for entertaining reading. Down in that section is a list of required ships that you're going to need!! I've supplied SOME items, but you End Users (tm) are responsible for all the rest. !!PLEASE!!! read the "Notes" section for more more detailed explainations of this terrain, and it's limitations. Good Hunting! Wrench Kevin Stein Submitter Wrench Submitted 09/29/2020 Category Full Terrains

I guess it's like the Jordan River -- in some places it's not even 2 m across!!!

Allen: why don't you assemble a package of them, and release them?? I mean, why not???

there are, and have been, 2 ships (albeit of a stand in variety) on the MidWest USA and CubaOTC terrains for a great number of years High Endurance Cutter "HEC" Cape Class WPB It's not like there's a lot of shipwrights around anymore.

something like a node name "engine glow". Don't some of the stock non-AB aircraft use something like this??

It's a pity you missed the "All In One Package" TK offered earlier this year. It was $100 USD, and had EVERYTHING!! All 5 games, both Expansions Pack and ALL the DLCs. It was most def worth the money. Well, water under the bridge as they say. Mabye he'll offer it again in the future?? TK you listening?? Maybe at Christmas time???? (hint hint! wink wink, nudge nudge)

iirc, those are just skins. you'd still need SF2:NA (North Atlantic) for the aircraft itself, and the associated avionics.dll

It is HIGHLY suggested you have all 5 of the stock games -- there are many items in each of them, that are referenced in a myriad of 3rd Party Mods (tm). This is especially true for terrains and several aircraft. It's also suggested that one have the 2 stock Expansion packs, as they not only add many aircraft, but various weapons and "other needed bits". ( for example, the older Sea Vixen references the EE Lightning's cockpit and avioncs)

For military docs, like FMs and TMs, there isn't a copyright issue (i think!). For other things, for example Osprey or Squadron/Signal, there definately would be.

And... some are for aircraft that DON'T have cockpits (like the AI Migs/SUs)

this one falls half-way-in-between what-ifs. The aircraft and unit depicted are real, but the Soviet BORODINO class* CV isn't. Testing the new Banshee, got this naval strike mission against the Soviet CVBG in the western Pacific. *iirc, it's included in one of cocas's what if red carrier birds. if not, it may be a seperate d/l. I don't remember -- age and all

chugster, could you be a little more specific, please??? Like, any aircraft in particular?? 98.6% of all aircraft downloads do come with a cockpit. Some are even the correct ones! . I do know for a fact, there are several that do not, but have referenced readily available stock 3rd Wire birds (example: the AI Vampires made flyable using the stock Hunter F1 pit). Those would include a modified cockpit ini, that has the necessary tweeks to 'center' it properly on the new bird. But, for the most part, the answer is yes.

no
