i'd move that patch a little bit back and down so as not to cover the stencils that are part of the skin. also maybe drop scale to 0.65 0.55 meanwhile, welcome to the wonderful world of decals, where we get the best (and worst) of ini editing and digital artistry!

new version uploaded. addresses a found issue with Centerline Tank Indicator Light in the cockpit, fix is uploaded for all who downloaded before this latest version big thanks to Falcon1364 for bringing it up, and Sundowner for getting my eyes on the right spot for the fix

View File Late Model RF-4C's : Photo Phantoms After Vietnam Late Model RF-4C's : Photo Phantoms After Vietnam A TMF Rebuilt project This mod brings four versions of the phamous photo Phantom into the game, and begins to represent it in its final years of USAF service as well as in South Korean service. Required A functional copy of any Strike Fighters 2 game except for SF2 North Atlantic (the only one without a native F-4 destroyed model) Included Effects, sounds, weapons, and 4 RF-4C aircraft RF-4C_75: regular tanks and centerline pylon to allow nuke carriage. RF-4C_85: choice of regular Phantom centerline tank or F-15 style tank. Last full up model in use RF-4C_LORAN_75: similar to _75 but with dorsal "towel rack" antennae for ARN-92 avionics RF-4C_ARN_101: similar to _85, but with the dorsal antennae for the ARN-101 avionics This pack is the starter kit, with a few skins per aircraft to get started. There are many other skinpacks available to suite your taste in operations; check in the F-4 Skins section of the SF2 downloads : https://combatace.com/files/category/512-f-4/ ****************************************************************************************************************************************************** NOTE!!

Many of their models are still heavily in use today, 15 years later and still amongst the very best. This despite the team not creating any new mods since the passing of Oliver Anguille in 2009. But time does move on, and the next generation of modders have ideas, techniques and tools not available back then. With the help of some of the original modellers (who have copies of the original max files) we can update these fine aircraft for the 2020s. Rebuilt for new terrains and campaigns that were just hopeful wishes over a decade ago. The Mirage in the logo is camoflaged, much like the real aircraft in later service. The "HD" has been replaced with "Rebuilt" as what was HD in the 2010s is jsut standard today. Finally, the new logo thanks Oli, both for the aircraft that are still relevant today and for the inspiration he's given to the modders that followed him. on behalf of The Mirage Factory (original and rebuilt) I thank you for downloading this mod, and hope you enjoy it.

Hoosier's Last Call

Good Luck! its hit or miss reaching out to direct sources like that, but is awesome when it hits and you get alot more than just the one or two answers you were looking for (probably why i'm a member of multiple USAF unit FB pages despite being a retired Army cook )

that is one wicked version of Hill Gray........

got one gun. the other one got me 10 seconds later

well compared to mos of the others, Cali is easy. one basic skin, one basic decal set. but with 29 airframes across three years

bunch of chores to do today, didnt do too much

this week, not only did i learn that the Nevada ANG got 3 jets from the Nebraska ANG as Nebraska was retiring their Phantoms , but that the High Rollers really didnt change the tail markings other than the High Roller logo. they kept these style numbers and the ANG logo with AFOUA (instead of "Nevada") al the way until AMARC in '95

have you gotten to see them overhead yet? i remember seeing the original Hornets during a couple of my multi day layovers in Kuwait.... mando screenie, or 64 troopers....

you could try playing with the "Green TV Filter" in the cockpit folder open it up in GIMP or Photoshop (or any image editor of your choice) and reduce the opacity so it is more clear than green. play with numbers until its to your liking SAVE A COPY OF THE ORIGINAL FILE BEFORE YOU DO THIS!!! that way, if it just dont work at all, you can remove "-COPY" from the file name and have the original file back you will have to fire the game up repeatedly to check your progress. this isnt something that is checkable in LODviewer to my knowledge finally, its a tga file, remember to uncheck the " RLE compression" box when saving/exporting it. this is very true for GIMP, others will correct me if it isnt for Photoshop

HANG ON LIL' DUDE!

it is amazing how many corrections come from posting screenies, then noticing stuff after posting

RAM '90

somebody, somewhere, is really mad you burnt their crab ragoon you know nice thing about SF2: screw the regs over safe operations over the airfield i just saw a bunch of widebodies to my right and honked it on over as soon as the gears were up ok ok heres a more legit Viper screenie

with ravenclaw's blessing; heres the videos converted to .mp4. VTS_01_1.mp4 VTS_02_1.mp4 VTS_03_1.mp4 VTS_04_1.mp4 VTS_05_1.mp4 VTS_06_1.mp4

that plane at around min 4:45 of the first video....

huh, Central Europe looks suprisingly dry and desert like the transition that almost was

"Fly me to the moon....."

lookin good but i want the back story man. CFE transfers like the Turkish RF-4Es? Greeks go with Panavia rather than General Dynamics in the 80s? how'd we get here man?!?!?!?!??!

exactly

watch it, you got one on your tail three gun passes later and the wing man off doing wingman-y things oh, and for the stats on that close pass
