I include the original Iran Iraq War read me file below:
 
 
 
 
 
This campaign is based on the Iran Iraq war that lasted from 1980-1988. It includes New terrain,, Persian music, photos, new screens, new sound files, new planes, new skins, and campaign files, heavily researched air units for Iran Iraq, historical air bases and locations.
 
This needs to be a separate install.
 
STEP 1
Please make sure your sf1 game installation follows this path (or the medals will not work): C:\IranIraq\Strike Fighters\Flight etc.
 
 
OR
 
You may go into the MedalsIRAQ.ini AND MedalIran.ini files (located in the "flight" folder of this zip) and change the path if you so desire (AS AN Example ADDING d:\ drive instead of C:\ ).
 
STEP 2
Please install the contents of the folders to their respective locations (not the folders themselves but what is located inside).
 
 
 
STEP 3
You must have the following additional planes(and weapons pack) installed.
 
Mig-25PD
F-14a(iaf)
Latest Weapons pack (can be found at www.combatace.com)
 
There is also an optional skin pack that adds even more skins to the Iraqi side created by Phamtuan called : Phamtuan_Skinpack_Iraq that can be used to enhance the game. it may be found at wwww.combatace.com
 
Step 4
 
Go to the terrain folder in your SF1 directory. Locate the desert folder. Locate the Desert cat file. Copy file over into the IR folder located in the terrain folder (if you followed the instructions outlined above). Rename the Desert cat file in your IR folder from : Desert to : IR
 
IMPORTANT NOTES*****
 
#1 There is a known issue while flying from some of the bases that will occur when there is a heavily overcast day with low cloud cover. You will not see the runway due to the clouds, your plane will be positioned above them on the runway. You may take off as normal and it does not affect game play. This is a visual glitch probably due to the terrain elevations and it is relatively rare.
 
#2
In order to properly simulate a protracted ground war (after all this war ended in a stalemate after 8 years!)
we have frozen the ground offensives and they will not start for approximately 9 months of game time. If you play the entire campaign through, it will start before the campaign ends. This method is probably more historical.
If you would like to change this setting, it is very easy to do. You need to open the IranIraq_data.ini file and find the following file:
 
StartGroundOffensive=270
 
For both Force 1 (Iran) and Force 2 (Iraq) you may then change the value.
 
Be warned that changing these settings may result in strange results (the war ending after several months as an example).
 
 
Credit for this campaign goes to:

I include the original Vietnam 1984 description below:
 
 
 
 
 
Vietnam 1984:
The Vietnam War ended in a stalemate a decade ago. North Vietnam has taken the opportunity, of the prolonged cease fire, to build up its ground and air forces.
The Soviet Union has recently taken an active role in mobilizing fighter regiments for the VPAF and the potential of the Soviet union adding actual ground troops to the area is now a reality.
The uneasy temporary peace comes to an end. The Reagan administration Withdraws the United States from the decade long diplomatic process. On December 18th 1984 the coalition starts a 2 week air offensive against North Vietnamese targets.
 
 
To install the mod simply place the folders that are inside the zip file in your WOV directory and say yes to overwrite the files.

Everything you need is in this 215MB file.
 
*******YOU MUST INSTALL EACH FOLDER INDIVIDUALLY. BE SURE TO CHECK THAT THE OBJECTS FOLDER INSTALLED PROPERLY WITH THE SUB FOLDERS and files. THE OBJECTS FOLDER INCLUDES THE AIRCRAFT FOLDER, WEAPONS FOLDER AND 5 OTHER FILES. SOME AIRCRAFT MIGHT NOT SHOW UP IF YOU SIMPLY SLIDE IN THE OBJECTS FOLDER, BE SURE TO CHECK THE ZIP FILE IF YOU HAVE ISSUES, THEY ARE ALL THERE, INSTALL EACH AIRCRAFT INDIVIDUALLY IF YOU ECOUNTER ISSUES. *******
 
 
*******Make sure to double check all aircraft installed (as an exmaple the MIG-21MF can fool you as it is already part of the regular WOV install, make sure the MIG-21MF inlcuded in the zip file installs properly ETC)*******

This is a redone version of my original Mig-15/17/19 Green cockpit repaint (paint by Deacon272). The color is much closer to the original Soviet green and I took the opportunity to clean it up a bit as well.

This is a black version of the Mig-15/17/19 cockpit repaint with Russian lettering on the gauges. This version is more authentic in color for the Mig-17.

This is a late MIG Cockpit repaint. It includes Russian lettering on the gauges and can be used for the later MIGs like the MIG-29.

This is a re worked IR Growl Lock sound file. It will allow you to hear when you are locked on to an enemy plane with IR missles much easier. Works MUCH better than the original (in my opinion). It has increased my kill ratio in game.
