    The second part of Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza mods for the SF2 series game. First of all. This is not entirely a 'Plug and Play' mod. Yes, some objects will appear in the game right away, but some will not - because some objects are meant to be used via the target editor. In general, the whole mod is built for terrain enhancement - a lot of objects should be added in terrain TYPES and TARGETS. But of course, some like tanks, SAMs, AAA, etc will appear automatically in the game. Having this in mind this mod is mostly for terrain builders, modders,, and experienced users. If you are hoping for quick-click plug-and-play - this is not for you. All objects have destroyed models added. Gun files should be taken carefully - they are slightly modified by guuruu with decreased performance. I believe all the gun files are provided and you should have them already, if I forgot something - well it happens sometimes. Sorry for that. Part two contains mostly air-to-air defenses. SA-2, SA-3, SA-9, SA-8B, SA-13, SA-7. Again those SAMs are not really plug-and-play mods. I have made them in groups (SA-2A, SA-2B, SA-3, etc...) each group contains EWR, SAM_RADAR, and SAM_LAUNCHER. It is up to the player to pick and choose the desired system for a specific mod, terrain, etc. all except SA-2 use new weapon models. SA-2 uses an older model that was available for years already. (for now, I have no patience to finish my models) All objects have destroyed models added. Gun files should be taken carefully - they are slightly modified by guuruu with decreased performance. All of the skins are green, I added a few camo versions and a few extra but just for specific objects. NO Tan/Desret scheme. This might come in a more specific mod for specific terrains in the future. Userlist ini files are just there but they might need editing for your own use. If you have similar models from me - released years ago - do not mix them up. I recommend deleting all old files. Here you will find new updated models. Under any circumstances DO NOT mix these objects with ODS 30Aniversary Edition mod. ODS30AE objects are exclusive for ODS and differ in many ways from Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza.

  2. Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza Vol.1

    yakarov79 commented on yakarov79's file in Ground Object Mods

    I forgot to add that all tanks equipped with an anti-aircraft gun have it disabled. Simple edits in the data file can turn it on. AA guns are off as it is not realistic to provide anti-aircraft fire during the combat engagement.

  4. Finally, I found some time (to put things together)... so I uploaded just a few models. Just in case you are wondering if this is just another long-gone project...So should be available to download soon... while meanwhile... D-30 Howitzer Mobile Army Surgical Hospital GAZ-66 AP-2 9K51 Grad system on Ural-375D BM-21 9K55 Grad-1 on 9P138 ZIL-131 chassis airfield fire engine AA-40 on ZIL-131 R-161A-2M radio vehicle on ZIL-131 this was before..but now with the rest of the system 9K52 Luna-M on 9P113 ZIL-135 chassis 9M21 missile transport vehicle 9T29 on ZIL-135 chassis and Luna-M command unit 9S445M - GAZ-66 PU-2 with meteorological radio measuring station RWZ-1A and AB-4-0/230 power unit
  6. Well, you will be surprised how color can be deceiving in black/white photos. Years ago (for a few years) I had some experience in restoring polychrome paintings (churches etc...) and many times what we had on the oldest available reference photos (suggesting dark colors) was nothing compared to what we discovered on-site on the walls already Light (and reflection) during taking photos can be a pain in the arse.
  7. Yup, Wrench's Ponys are quite accurate. Checkers were present on some airframes, but never bothered to explore a topic more. Guess it is a post-war unit airframe) very early they have usually NG above the serial number on the tail fin. Somewhere around 1948 ANG above serial started to appear. Also in the immediate post-war era markings were usually applied on top/bottom wings, not on the fuselage. Some units started to display Star'n Bar on the fuselage around 1947. On fuselage around Star'n Bar first was NG (example TEX * NG) and then again around 1948 ANG...(TEX * ANG) On starboard top wing NG- plus last 3 serial numbers, and bottom port wing same This one has checkers like the 78th FG. - But checkers go nearly all the way to the windscreen. I would not rely on photographs of restored airframes/museum examples they tend to be quite inaccurate. As we all know.
  8. possibly both, but maybe depends on the year. Did some research on 111th from Texas. And I thought they changed colors. But turns out that colors were wrongly interpreted from blac&white photos. - Which leads to repeating mistakes over the years .
  9. one animation for a cargo weapon station and another animation for another 'paratrooper" weapon station. It will work. Plus proper HideNode= / ModelNodeName= / GroupLimit= ini entries will do the trick... Will look silly in 3d max but it does not matter in the game. It will work.
  10. Movable parts as elevator, rudder, wheels propellers etc...are animated via data.ini file. You need to cut out all glass openings (windows, windshield etc) then fill it with new node with assigned transparent material. If you are working in 3dmax I can send you (tomorrow or monday) sample of finished aircraft. So you can have a look and perhaps better understanding of the matter.
  11. Well, it is much easier to build up a new model than extract and work on an old lod. Just to be clear. Yes, we can 'hack' models from the game. Not going to name tools anyway. But it is crap, and not worth the effort.
  12. I. When you will start modeling then you will know how it works. Start with the front panel and then..suddenly you want to do every single screw and switch. And believe me from point of view person who made one or two pits. This is the best part of aircraft modeling. Countless hours spent over the manuals and bazylion pictures for reference - this is fun, educational fun. The only comparable part of modeling is researching serial numbers - the second thing that we love to do. The ultimate lesson of history. And in the end, after all the hard work you put in you will feel absolutely fulfilled. Even if many users do not give a damn if a switch is in the right position (or if there is a switch at all). Even if it is hard to see appreciation from the end users. (a very common thing for the last few years). Still, we going to do 'the thing' our way.
  13. Not sure if that matters in the game at all since we are flying. But I can work on it. Simple ini edit or simple ini edit and weapon model. and special for you Czech built T-55AM2
  14. I will make it with clean - unpainted rubber just for you. Just in case. I know that there is no point in painting it...but still, it was also observed with paint. One in Kubinka Museum has it painted. One in Polish Museum in Warsaw has it painted. Many in the Czech Republic I observed were unpainted. and AMV one painted one untouched rubber. The best thing is in many scale model kits those side skirts come made of metal... And a way to recognize the version on a blurry picture. All early T-72 Urals with 80-105-20 glacis armor has 4. Ural-1 produced between 1975-79 with 60-105-50 armor has 3 anti-ricochet bars. And 2 bars on T-72A and on export Object 172M-1-E5 and E6 - to put it simply T-72M1 (16-60-105-50 glacis armor)
  15. yes, I know. But it can also be painted, right? In fact, steel-reinforced (Interwoven textile)
  16. all quiet on the eastern front... T-55AM, T-55AMV, 9K52
  17. generally, there is a safety limit when you can deploy airbrakes. When, during flight, dive, etc speed exceeds the limit, hydraulic system kicks in and will close the airbrakes.
  18. Man! Have you ever heard about punctuation marks?
  19. tell me I am wrong...but looks like Dassault M2000 D and N combined are winning by one point... come on ...Let us make Dassault great again! But honestly, I would vote for Su-22 or ...KC-10 <--- do not take it so seriously
  20. maybe it is possible. We just need to be more creative... TK's ultimate goal - make all those lazy gamers more creative...
  21. Why not use templates...you can make any color you want..
  22. Sure

    Sikorsky RH-53D Ver 3.0 for SF2 This is a third party addon of Sikorsky helicopter RH-53D. It is designed for and works only in SF2 series. And will never work in SF1. ************************************************************* This is FREEWARE-DONATIONWARE and it CANNOT be distributed unless permissions are granted by myself. The original readmes, if any, and all other pieces of the package MUST remain intact. The names of all contributors, modders, suppliers, etc =MUST= be listed in any new readmes. This package and any part of it may NOT in any way, shape or form be used in any payware additions. See the original readme documentation, if any, for further allowances and restrictions Any persons wishing to make further modifications, contact me first. Any persons wishing to make further modifications MUST remember to put everyone's name in it. Bribes and donations are accepted; ************************************************************* ************************************************************* THIS AIRCRAFT MOD OR ANY PART OF IT MUST NOT BE HOSTED OR POSTED FOR DOWNLOAD ON ANY OTHER WEBSITE WITHOUT MY EXPRESS PERMISSION, OR USED FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE THAN THIRDWIRE FLIGHT SIMULATORS, AND MUST NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE BY ITSELF OR WITH ANY OTHER FILES OR MODS. ************************************************************* Jarek Hereda ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This mod represents Sikorsky model of RH-53D. It was used mainly by US NAVY Mine countermeasure units. At the end, of service time RH-53D were passed to USMC reserve units, where served as transport/heavy lift helicopters. Some were still used during Desert Shield/Storm operations in 1991. Finally, RH-53D was written off from units in 1996. 12 aircrafts were also ordered by Imperial Iranian Navy. Only six delivered before the revolution. Add then all six remained in the newly formed Islamic Republic of Iran Navy Aviation. CHANGES: I highly recommend to overwrite previous files decals/weapons/guns- or best is delete the old one and put new files. YOU NEED TO DELETE OLD AIRCRAFT FOLDERS RH-53D_70. Many things were changed and as tested Overwriting may cause some problems...So delete old ones put new ones. The rest (except Aircraft folders) are same can be overwritten without fear... Small changes in ini files, corrections on fuel loadout, changes in cockpit ini. Small changes in skins. Also No longer fake weapon "no gun" is needed - thanks to The Trooper. He pointed small fix in data.ini. Added simple bump and specular maps. Also added damage tgas. Some changes and rearrangement in a cockpit ******************IMPORTANT****************** FakePilot mod neede to run this mod. As always with my mods. This addon works with my CargoPACK (included in rar file). All of the weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this cargo pack. Of course, you can edit and use any other weapons available. Standard commands: LANDING GEAR - Nose light deploys/retract at any speed. ANIMATION 1 - right side door. ANIMATION 2 - left hatch cabin windows ANIMATION 3 - wipers outside/inside ANIMATION 4 - Refueling probe - H key (hook by default) will change seat position to see a tip of the IFR probe. ANIMATION 10 - Winch Parking animations. Two parking animations included one for 'on land base' and other for 'on board' parking. You can fold tail and rotor by enabling animation in data.ini file. But it looks silly. And my intention for this animation was eye candy on board vessel. With little practice, you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes. Important here to control is using rudder and vector thrust control. With heavy cargo load probably you need little run on A model as engines on A are little underpowered. Normally throttle vector control on 88-89 degree increase power 70% then slowly more and more, wait and it will take off. Cockpits. Newly upgraded cockpit based on NATOPS manual. Mirrors working now and showing correct image. Fuel usage is not super perfect but compared to all previous H-53 models released here fuel gauges are working. Skins. All serial numbers are based on available photos, NAVY and USMC documents and are historically correct. Weapons. The only "offensive" weapon is left/right side gunner. Well, I'm straffing convoys with it with great success. Important - if there is no gunner - fake weapon (no gun/empty) must be loaded. For now, it must be this way. Same as default should be loaded Mk103 minesweep. This is allowing top cargobays to be seen. This addon works with my CargoPACK (included in rar file). All of weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this cargo pack. Of course, you can edit and use any other weapons available. Here is experimental Mk105 minesweeper sled different than in previous CH-53D pack. This one is only for RH-53D. To see Mk105 open cargo bay. Also, you can add refueling probe. At the beginning of service, this aircraft has only provisions for refueling probe. Cargo loads. I am releasing this cargo load in current condition. So maybe some skins needs to be adjusted. Cargo loads includes few cargo crates for cargo bay and hook, howitzer, MUTTs. Skins for MUTTS - Thank yo The Trooper. IMPORTANT - Due to the construction of this mod it is better to use collision and landing on NORMAL setting. On hard, you may have some complications on airfield - especially with underslung cargo load. Skins. All serial numbers, as far as I know, are based on photos and US Army docs and are historically correct. US Navy - HMH-12 'Sea Dragons' 1977 - HMH-16 'Seahawks' 1979 - HMH-14 'Vanguard' 1981 - HMH-18 'Norsemen' 1987 - VR-24 World's Biggest Little Airline, Helos on COD duties. USMC - special for use in Desert Storm mod if needed: - HMH-772 Det.A Pilots - best to use is OldDiego's pilots. As bonus there is Eagle Claw folder -easy to find. Inside - skins for sand repainted RH-53D - also replacement file for lod and deta.ini file - this wil make EAPS dissapear. So backup original lod and data file before using Eagle Claw mod. So yo were warned. Have fun. Edit and report bugs. Jarek Hereda. Thanks. Thanks to everyone who helped me with this. daddyairplanes,331Killerbee,76.IAP-Blackbird. Thanks for all kind support.

  24. I know that it is too late...but from point of view of 3d model - S-2 tracker / E-1 Tracer also Mirage 2000N/D should not compete against each other. 3d guy having S-2 can pop up E-1 or C-1 easily too - then you have 3 new aircraft. Same situation in the 2000 N/D spot. And now you can see that 2000N has 12 votes while 2000D has 11 and both are losing to some wannabe fighter. While could have strong 23 points...And from 3d model / ini file, there is not much of a difference. but just my 2 peso to discusion. Let us make Dassault great again!
