Jeez, I came into this only owning NA and Europe. I needed Israel for Desert Storm and now I need Vietnam and Vanilla for RSR. $120 more for a 10+ old year old game... Oh well, as long as it is fun! Thanks all :)

I just installed the Desert Storm Mod and it adds an F-18 to the game. How can I use that or maybe another mod to add the F-18 to the North Atlantic campaign? Thank you!

I think I am good now. Thank you VERY much :)

I found this one... and it says... " Just drop contents into any SF2 series Mod Folder. " I read that the mods folder needs to go in the save games folder so I put the unzipped files in this path but I do not see the F-18 available. Did I put the mods folder in the wrong place? C:\Users\me\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 NorthAtlantic\Mods

Hello, I installed... http://combatace.com/files/file/9879-fa-18a-a-and-c-by-the-mirage-factory-for-sf2/ Over my vanilla NA install. It seems to work fine except for selecting radar targets. Anyone know if there is a compatibility issue between this mod an NA? Thanks!

Thank you for your response, sir. I will give it a shot when I get home from work.

Nobody else has encountered this?

Ok, I found the MF weapons pack and installed it. I was able to mount some sort of targeting system but, the LANTIRN was not an option. Gonna mess around some and see what happens. Thanks!

Awesome! I am using this weapons pack: WeaponsPack_03Jul06.exe Is that the wrong one? Thank you!

I hate to bother anyone but,I have looked at several sites for several days and I can not find the info I need to fly a Tomcat in the stock WoE campaign. if someone would be kind enough to post a link to this info, I would appreciate it. I already found the thread where it describes modifying the date range but, the Tomcat should be a valid option already for WoE. Thanks!

I can not wait to get home and play with this information. Thank you VERY much!

Thank you very much. Is the Lantirn pod functional or is it just eye candy? Can I self laze? Thanks!

I just installed it over a merged wov/woe that, as far as I can tell, had a perfect F-14A install. I noticed 3 things: No visual Burner No LANTIRN pod visable It looks like its using the TF-30 exhaust? Thank you!

Hey pfunk. I read about your modern day campaign and I am looking forward to it. Any hopes for an F-14D? :)

The more I play this game, the more I think it really suits my style of play. Enough depth for a challenge, not so deep that I need to go crazy memorizing switchology. I like those games to but, I just dont have the time anymore. I REALLY want to get a Tomcat up and running in a campaign. I guess I will just put my nose to the grindstone and figure it out. I installed WoV then... Service Pack v05.15.06 (43.1 MB) Patch v08.30.06 (5.91 MB) SFP1_F-14a_TOMCAT_V1.1-Light.exe WeaponsPack_03Jul06.exe VF-84 Skin Jumped in and played a Single Mission in a Tomcat with era specific weapons so I know I am good up to here. Now to get a Tomcat off the deck of a carrier in the stock WoV campaign.

Ok I got the Tomcat in the campaign list but when I went into the campaign, I was given Nato missions... Went into the .ini files and whacked anything not concerning the Tomcat. Now I get the Tomcat missions but no weapons... I installed the nato fighters packages and the weapons pack and I understand there are conflicts. I guess that is my problem. Think I will kill this whole install and start with just WoV and trying to get the Tomcat going on that. Thanks again guys. I am sure you have answered all of my questions a thousand other times. Thanks for your patience.

Thank you for that! I tried to edit the 79 Campaign with the following entry but, I still do not see the Tomcat as a selectable unit. Anyone see anything wrong? //----- Player Unit [AirUnit103] AircraftType=F-14A Squadron=VF84-1 ForceID=1 Nation=USN DefaultTexture=vf84-1 BaseArea=Spangdahlem Airbase BaseMoveChance=0 RandomChance=100 MaxAircraft=16 StartAircraft=16 MaxPilots=16 StartPilots=16 Experience=100 Morale=100 Supply=50 MissionChance[sWEEP]=90 MissionChance[CAP]=90 MissionChance[iNTERCEPT]=90 MissionChance[ESCORT]=90 MissionChance=0 MissionChance[CAS]=0 MissionChance[sEAD]=0 MissionChance[ARMED_RECON]=0 MissionChance[ANTI_SHIP]=0 MissionChance[RECON]=00 UpgradeType=NEVER Supply[001].WeaponType=AIM-9L Supply[001].Quantity=600 Supply[002].WeaponType=AIM-7F Supply[002].Quantity=600 Supply[003].WeaponType=Tank330_F14 Supply[003].Quantity=600 Supply[004].WeaponType=AIM-54A Supply[004].Quantity=40 Supply[005].WeaponType=AIM-54C Supply[005].Quantity=80 Supply[001].WeaponType=AIM-9M Supply[001].Quantity=600 Supply[001].WeaponType=AIM-9P Supply[001].Quantity=600 Thank you!
