View File SF2 Tu-16 Badger Pack by Pasko SF2 Tu-16 Badger Pack by Pasko 11/1/2024 -For SF2, Full 5 Merged REQUIRED. Must Have SF2:NA!!!!!) -Another 1stGen Salvage Operation- This is a revamp of Pasko's Tu-16 Badger(s) from SF1 to SF2 "standards". This package contains the 3 variants of the Badger he and his team created 'way back in 2005. As stated above, a full-5 merged install is required; or at =LEAST= having SF2:NA in the merged install. This is because the Cruise Missile versions use the stock 3W cruise missiles (Although I've supplied the early versions). The 3 aircraft included herein are ... Tu-16 Badger-A (free fall bombs only) Tu-16K-10-26 Badger C (cruise missiles only; 1 centerline, 2 wing mounted) Tu-16G Badger K (2 cruise missiles, wing mounted only) A cockpit is supplied for each, with a working bombsight for the standard bomber. (See notes about the issues flying bombers in SF2). All weapons, execpting the KS-1 & KSR-2 missiles are stock 3W items (FAB, RBK, K10S). All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. All new Hangar and Loading screens have also been included, for you enjoyment. The aircraft are supplied with a number skins for the varying Air Force users. Some (re)use their original 1stGen decals, with a slight repaint to stop any 'fuzziness'. Many decals used (for Middle East and Soviet birds) are stock items. You'll get: Tu-16A: Soviet Silver Ukraine Silver (<1991) Egypt AF Silver (<1966) Iraq Silver (<1973) Indonesia Silver (<1961) PLAAF China Sliver (<1959) Iraq Green Stripe Camo (<1978)* Iraq Sand/Green Camo (<1980)* Tu-16C: Soviet Naval Aviation Silver (blue borts) Tu-16G: Soviet Naval Aviation Silver (blue borts) As indicated above, you can see the the SF2 "date switch" is active. The star (*) tagged above indicates these years are "best guess". When possible the original readme for all skins are within each skin folder, and notes are sometimes made on the textureset.ini. The PLAAF bird only gets 24 bort number decals, which are (hopefully!) historically correct and nearly the right color blue <grin>! Pilot figures are also included. For exact in-game usage for the C & G models, I'd suggest giving their data inis a looksee, as they have several Secondary Roles to fulfill. When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Drop down you'll see: Tu-16 Badger-A (Pasko) Tu-16K-10-26 Badger C (Pasko) Tu-16G Badger K (Pasko) The (Pasko) differentializes these from the stock 3W Badgers (and any mods thereof). So you can't mistook them for anything other than what they is. As always fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is of course, in the Notes section below. Good Hunting & Happy Landings!

or, just a large shoal

A flock of seagulls??? A brace of badgers? A murder of crows??? A clowder of cats???? A herd of goats?? A pride of lions? A pack of wolves??? !!! No idea what to title this.... (posted these as 2 entries, as one follows the others)

"We have found the enemy fleet! Farewell, Motherland!!!"

Ok, why are you necrothreading Jordi!!!???? but serioulsy, didn't they use (basically) the same colors or near enough as the RAF? Both for the Euro 2-tone and maybe the desert 2-tone?

"Hey, you can't park that animal there!!!"

thank you for posting a better image!!! :) could be what Gepard said, or maybe the 'airfield zone" wasn't properly flattened??? I'd try his suggestion first, as it's super easy with the TAE (much easier they trying to flatten with the 3w terrain editor) also, which airfield is it? I can look it up on my copy of Rend's GCE

could you post a brighter screen shot? All I see is an orange sky and black ground. Maybe around noontime??

ah, yes they were. one of our USAFE units had an experimental 2 tone (similiar to the RAF). Don't remember which off the top of my head, but we have the skin for it in the downloads section EDIT: 461st Fighter Day Squadron, Hahn AFB, 1956

Seen it before, and it's an "ok" film. Storywise. But ...It's got Hunters!!

Indeed, more information is required. Also, there's NO stock player flyable airplane with a bomb bay.

Yes, PLEASE use normal fonts! Also, given the fact that the GErmanyCE map does NOT have the required bits for CV operations (out of the box), it won't work. Also, given the almost total lack of 'sea room' on that map, making the required adjustments to the _water.bmp, GermanyCE.ini, etc isn't worth it. If one DOES tweek it for carrier ops, and now has NAVALMAP=TRUE, you can kiss goodbye any normal strike mission.

I never got the play Crimson Skies, but I've always been in love with the 'alternate history' genre. I totally buy a new version!

"Well, well! The Michelin Guide was right! Asutrias Airport DOES have ample covered parking!!!!"

We all wish it was so, but .... without the code (and it ain't never gonna be forthcoming) not much more we can do. Sadly

I'm sure there are a lot of us out here, that don't thank Erik enough. The man is on top of this site for us. So, let's all give him a BIG round of thanks and apprieciation!!!! Thanks Boss!!!

Rhinos at The Rock

my guess is that the Flanker mod had a crappy read me, that didn't include proper install instructions. They should go something like this .... Now, a lot of times, expecially for a first time mod installl, many of the subfulders my not exist. IF the download is properly set up, with the necessary folder (NOT within the /Objects folder), like /Effects, /Sounds, etc simply drop THOSE folders into the mod folder. You can see in the image below, the various folders WITHIN the mods folder (C:\Users\*YourName*\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2) feel free to ask any other questions -- we're here to help!!

I did the Saints some years back, it's in the downloads section. Save you some work

you just take that .fx line, and stick it in the Material section .... (this is from a different effect, you'll get the idea...) this one is form one of the millions of 20mm guns ... you can see the .fx line at the top. just copy/past that into your existing one i've done it lots of time, bringing 1stGen stuff into SF2.

can't speak to the aircraft issue, but check the effect statements for the guns and smoke. FE2 and SF2 use a different shader than 1st Gens something like this: [SmokeMaterial] EffectShaderName=effectLightLevel.fx <--- added new. [FireMaterial] EffectShaderName=effectFire.fx <---- DepthBufferCheck=TRUE extract a stock effect ini, and you should be able to see the differences in the statements, and do a simple copy/past of those effects Materials

LOVE those harbor tiles!!! Great work!!!

Primed, and ready for launch

How about we try using English, as it IS the major language here at cA. Thank you.
