                Included
    Skins for two different aircraft models,
    Decals for those skins

                Installation
    Unzip file, add Objects folder to desired mod folder. allow overwrites, this skinpack shares a few folders with the Idaho ANG skins in the main TMF aircraft set

                About The Mirage Factory Rebuilt
    Back in the early days of Wings Over series modding The Mirage Factory, lead by bpao was the peak of modding excellence. 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.

    I'm trying to understand how to do this on my F-4D's.
    I'm wanting to make the rear sparrows as Group 7, to me this makes logical sense considering nothing else can be loaded there. My question is, should I remove the Falcon Stations and then seperate the 2 front Sparrow Bays so I can use/load them individually? I would be interested in seeing your setup.

    you wouldnt even need to do that. simply change

    SparrowStation4]
    SystemType=WEAPON_STATION
    StationID=9
    StationGroupID=4 <----------------------------- to 7

     

    be aware that doing this means they will either always be there or never be there depending on your loadout ini. at this moment, believing you havent screwed with said loadout ini, they would always be there

    i just did this with the Recce Phantoms and the wing tanks; the are on in 99% of shots post Desert Storm and i wanted the option of 2 or 4 Winders, so the tanks went to group 7 and will now be on forevermore (at least for the _91 and Spanish models)
