Wrench replied to swambast's topic in General Discussion
I really like the rivers! Had several family members, and older brothers of friends that served there. They always commented on how brown the water was. -
YES!!! I had a toy of this when I was about 5 or 6!! It was soooo coool! You could open the nose doors, and stuff it full of plastic army men!! Thank Jarek!! (the other was the Remco H-21! Motorized!!)

View File SF2 Su-30MKA "Flanker-H" Algerian Air Force Skin Pack SF2 Su-30MKA "Flanker-H" Algerian Air Force Skin Pack 9/21/2025 -For SF2 =ONLY= (Any & All, Full 4/5 Merged Recommended) This is a mod of the Su-30MKI by Spudknocker, now converted (rebuilt?) into the Su-30MKA "Flanker-H" as used by Algeria. This is the complete aircraft, minus sounds and weapons. With luck, you'll already have those needed items. If not, since there seems to be no consensus, you'll have to locate them on your own. All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. The Serial numbers are historically correct for this aircraft. You'll have 44 of them, which (iirc) is the total in service as of 9/2025. When on the Loadout Page, you'll see: 121ème Escadron de Defense Aerienne As this is a full aircraft mod, there no need for a 'start date' on the skin. The QJJ received their first Flankers in 2007. I've also included a new pilot figure, "Red3211". The canopy is also activated, it uses the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero). The canards are held on by the 'fake pilot' method, and there is NO thrust vectoring!!. Included is a skin-specific Hangar Screen. 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. PLEASE read them, before installing!!! Please also take note of changes in the Standard Disclaimer in the "Legal BS" section at the bottom. Happy Landings! Wrench Kevin Stein Have a Happy Sukhoi Sunday!!!

Doncha just love it when ... You need one simple skin for a simple aircraft. Then you discover that said simple aircraft has NOT been converted/updated for SF2. EVER. And that many of the skins in the Original Release Package (tm), aren't even FOR that model of said aircraft. To say nothing of all the other bits and pieces that'll need SF2izing. Well, there goes what I had planned this weekend (not to worry -- the Algerian Su-30s should be out on Sunday, to celebrate Sukhoi Sunday. of course

I'm trying to make the 'nation name' decal that goes on the side of the Algerian AF IL-76s (and Hercs, too). Like the Indian AF, one side is English, the other in the native language. I have an Arabic font, but I'm reasonably sure that what I type is only English with Arabic lettering (see below). I know its wrong, because I've found photos, and the lettering IS different. So, if anyone speaks/reads Arabic, I could use some help! And your name goes in the credits (goes without saying!) the image needs to be at least 512x512 so I can work with it, and create the decal from it. thanks in advance!!!

Something strange going on in the cockpit for Su30s. Those 2 boxes, outlined in yellow, have something spinning around in them like the mirrors of a Martian Heat Ray Generator. Anybody know what the are, and why they're doing what they do? And most importantly, how to stop it!!

See "Installation" for more details. In Cliff7600's own words .. "I have made a quick skin for a Algerian MiG-15bis at the start of the Algerian air force with the early roundel and fin flash from a picture found on the net. It's for the Third Wire MiG-15bis. I've sent it to you and you can use it as you want for the Iberia terrain you released. You might add the "insignia trick" in the decals ini file because there's no stock insignia or fin flash decal. The numbers are semi-historical as I took what I found from the thread about the Moroccan and Algerian numbers. I made 12 of them. It's my contribution lol" All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE.

View File SF2 MiG-29C "Fulcrum-C" Algerian Air Force Skin Pack SF2 MiG-29C "Fulcrum-C" Algerian Air Force Skin Pack 8/29/2025 -For SF2 =ONLY= (Any & All, Full 4/5 Merged Recommended) This is a revamp of a skin released in 2015 for The Mirage Factory's MiG-29C "Fulcrum-C" as used by the Algerian Air Force (QJJ). The original skin was by ADM17 from 2015. This package will replace that skin & decal set completely. Please note, in the TMF Pack, it's for the just "Plane Jane" MiG-29C (no suffix). All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. The Serial numbers are historically correct for this aircraft. You'll have 24 of them. The skin has been converted from 12meg bmps to jpgs, saving a considerable amount of space!! Resolution stays at 2048x. When on the Loadout Page, you'll see: 193 Esc. de Chasse (QJJ) <1999 As you can see, there is an active start date (listed in the texture set ini) and with luck it will turn on in 1999. This is when the QJJ started operating the Fulcrums I have included a modified data and loadout ini. The data ini gives the aircraft some "hardening" (via aluminum armor), and the loadout ini adds the drop tank for all missions. All weapons used are from the TMF MiG-29 Super Pack, available at the following URL: https://combatace.com/files/file/12489-the-mirage-factory-mig-29-fulcrum-mod/ I've also included a new pilot figure, "Red7001". The canopy is also activated, it uses the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero). . Included is a skin-specific Hangar Screen. As it's named the same as the original, no editing is required to install!. 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. PLEASE read them, before installing!!! Also, the Notes section has more details on the changes. Happy Landings! Wrench Kevin Stein (After all, today IS MiG Monday!! Enjoy!!!) Submitter Wrench Submitted 09/15/2025 Category MiG-29
