Yes I know the file in question is a FE2 pilot, but it does actually work in SF2 as well, however, just as the plain pilot, blact helmet and goggles etc, but the second jpg in that file is the head with the scarf round his mouth, how do you get that one to show up in either FE2 or SF2 , sorry I am maybe not being totally clear here. -

If we could manage that then we could manage them transitioning into regular infantry squads after they land, so I guess the answer would be no...........they are pretty pointless really in the great scheme of things, but Hey, I am ever the champion of lost causes !! -

I actually took the CR 42 for a test fly in SF2 yesterday, and very nice it is too, so when the proper version comes out a happy little bunny I shall be. -

The paras themselves aren't really an overwhelming issue, except for the fact they are pretty pointless, however, as an eye candy thing, or AI dropping them, they are desirable, except for the fact when they land, they do Sweet Fanny Adams. and as when I actually drop them, I am more interested in avoiding flak , I don't ( except in testing ) generally go to external view to see what the grunts are up to. It's just mildly irritating that they are for all intents and purposes, training rounds , and are pretty much useless........niggles me when stuff is put into a sim , then doesn't do anything.......So, ( to get back on my point ) I am more interested in getting the Paras to jump out the door not the floor, but I think Wrench and LloydNB have answered that issue, I just have to faff about getting the buggers out the damn door lol lol lol -

Gotcha, I suspected this was what had to be done, but as you know I am only just starting out doing minor modding like this , so thank you for the heads up, I shall have a play and see what is what. It,s a shame the paras don't act as Infantry when they land, I know its all down to game limitations etc. just rather odd, and difficult to complete a mission with success dropping paras, on a target, or near one, which would be the real world scenario. I also think its a shame that when the stick exits the aircraft they don't spread out more like the real thing , these guys parachute like the Red Devils lol -
AN-2 "HEMAAR" V 2.0
Trotski posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
File Name: AN-2 "HEMAAR" V 2.0 File Submitter: trotski00 File Submitted: 20 February 2016 File Category: What If Hangar AN-2 "HEMAAR" HISTORY The I.P.A.F.A units needed a STOL capable aircraft, to enable resupply to forward units, and also a limited parachute drop capability. the perfect aircraft for this was deemed to be the AN-2 "Colt" The Parani Ministry of Defence, purchased a large quantity of these aircraft, to equip the army units. A small number of these aircraft were blacked out for use by the Parani Special operations Group. This aircraft has been in service with the I.P.A.F.A. since 1947, and is deemed still capable for use into the near future. As an additional role, the AN-2 has been fitted with bomb/rocket racks, and is capable of executing limited nuisance attacks. The Aircraft is much loved by its crews, and carries the name HEMAAR which means Donkey , its ease of maintenance and reliability, mean it is a very useful and flexible aircraft. Installation and blah blah I have included ( I hope) everything needed in one package, ie. the aircraft decals, weapons, pilots, and sounds. I have also included a SQADRONLIST.INI, and a NATIONS.INI to allow these birds to show up as a nation and with the correct markings. I have dropped all the respective files into their correct folders so, all you will need to do is unRAR/ZIP/7Z to your saved game folder, and allow overwrites ( if any) I have tested this on a full merged all bells and whistles SF2 so I assume it will work on unmerged too.as I said everything is there to get her up and running, just drop it all as is into your saved game folder and off you fly. I have made 3 different skins for the 2 Army Forward Aviaton Regiments, one of which is a Spec Ops colour scheme, and also one in civilian markings ( Parani Air America clone ? ) the cargo bay door operates by pressing whichever key you are using for the bombbay doors. the aircraft is able to carry light bombloads under the wings, however, be aware, she is slow lumbering, and very easy to shoot down !! This is the final update of this aircraft, I would advise removing any previous versions of the HEMAAR before installing this one, as there may be issues as the resolution has been raised slightly, I have also included lo res ( non wide screen ) screens for the hangar and the loading screen CREDITS !!! Credit for the original model and workings to whomsoever was involved in the original aircraft. I have just played around and tweaked a few things. I could not have done this for you to enjoy without the initial hard work by the likes of Mr Wrench, Mr Paulopanz and all the other fantastic modders on here to numerous to mention, I am an amateur just dipping my toe in a very deep pond !!! This is the 4th Aircraft from the Parani Army and the final one for this set, I shall be doing Navy and Airforce aircraft next, so keep your mk 1's peeled, for more Parani lovliness................ENJOY !!

I shall look at this on the morrow, with a fresh pair of eyes, so thank you, I knew it was all about the Attachment pos , just wasn't sure how it worked exactly. I shall experiment with this in the mornin'....after my second ( at the very least ) Very strong and very black coffee !!! -

File Name: Fiat G55 "RAHMI" File Submitter: trotski00 File Submitted: 20 February 2016 File Category: What If Hangar FIAT G55 "RAHMI" HISTORY While the "Western Infidel War " was in progress tensions between the Imperial State of Paran, and the Dhimari Principality, were at a high level, with small skirmishes and clashes on the borders. Paran managed to acquire some Fiat G55's from various sources ( not all of them legal) and equipped its number 1 Squadron, named the Huntress squadron, with these aircraft. 1 Squadron used these Fiats until 1947 when they re equipped with the S-199 SAIF, the remaining G 55's going into storage. Along with these aircraft and the S-99 ( Bf-109 G10) Parani fighter pilots learned their trade, and to great effect. The aircraft was given the name RAHMI or Lancer Installation and blah blah I have taken the existing Fiat G 55 and repainted it, you will noticed that the original marking ( Italian ) have been over painted and the Parani markings placed over the top, this has been done on purpose, to make these aircraft look like they were ex Italian airforce, and still retained their original markings, personally I think it looks pretty good done this way, so if you can see the original Italian insignia on the wings and tail, this is done on purpose, and not because of any rubbish painting on my behalf. I wasn't going to be doing any early aircraft for Paran/Dhimar, but a couple of people have expressed an interest in earlier aeroplanes, so this is the first one. As with all my uploads I hopefully have included everything you need , including the guns, as apparently some of you guys have had issues with guns not working, so now you have 'em, they will work !! I also advise you update your Soundlist files to reflect the sounds I have included with this package. CREDITS !!! Credit for the original aircraft By Veltro Cockpit by Kesselbrut, and some other bloke, pilot by Geezer ( and very nice it is too !! ) Flight model by Charles, everything else by yours truly. keep your mk 1's peeled, for more Parani lovliness................ENJOY !!

La-15 "YAMAAM" HISTORY Pending the acquisition of Mig-17 / J-3 aircraft for the Parani air Force. a purchase of La-15's was made ( one of the last purchases from the USSR) the capability of this aircraft was similar to the Mig-15/J2 that was in use by the Army (I.P.A.F.A.) and it was felt that until Mig-17/J3 airframes could be acquired, that this aircraft was ideal as a temporary fighter/interceptor, with the additional idea that when the Mig's were in use that this aircraft would make a good primary jet trainer for pilots converting to Jet powered aircraft, so the front line service life of the YAMAAM ( Dove ) was quite short, and many Parani pilots cut their teeth on this type. Installation and blah blah Just a quick repaint of the LA-15 originally done by PC-Pilot. As with all my uploads, this is an all in one package, all the bits and bobs are there for you including PilotData ( for the Squadrons) and Nations.ini .So unpack to your saved game folder, it has been tested on a fully merged install. so I assume it will work on any non merged set ups too. So... off you jolly well pop, and go and shoot down some accursed infidel Dhimari !!! CREDITS !!!

AVIA-S199 "SAIF" HISTORY The Parani Air Force ( I.P.A.F.) had been using ex lufwaffe BF-109 G10's and the Avia S-99 since the end of the "Western Infidel War" and these airframes were getting tired and worn out, as they were usually second and third hand cast off, and ex "hangar Queens" which had been scavenged from many sources, When the IDF started using the Avia S-199 , the Parani Ministry of Defence liked what they had seen ( even though there were certain issues with this aircraft type) Early in 1947 they approached their Czech Military advisors, and acquired brand new airframes direct from Avia. One Squadron (Huntress Squadron) of the Imperial Air Force was equipped fully with the Avia-S-199 which was given the name of Saif, or Scimitar. intended as a stop gap aircraft, until the MIG-17 or J-3 was available, these aircraft actually remained in service up until the mid 70's. Installation and blah blah As with all my uploads, this is an all in one package, all the bits and bobs are there for you including PilotData ( for the Squadrons) and Nations.ini .So unpack to your saved game folder, it has been tested on a fully merged install. so I assume it will work on any non merged set ups too. So... off you jolly well pop, and go and shoot down some accursed infidel Dhimari !!! CREDITS !!! Credit for the original model and workings to Monty-CZ for the orginal models, Kesselbrut has worked his magic on the cockpits, I believe Mr Wrench did some work on the originals too, as has Kulbit.....if I jhave missed anyone out, apologies, slap wristies and no sweeties for me for the rest of the week and banned to the naughty step :P :P :P keep your mk 1's peeled, for more Parani lovliness................ENJOY !! -
