Installation...
---------------------
1) Copy the contents of the "To_Mod_Folder" folder into your mod folder and over-write if required.
2) Update your "...\Flight\SOUNDLIST.INI" with the contents of the "Add F15 SoundList.txt". Please don't forget to maintain the number sequence in the sound list.
3) Check, ensure (or update) all the squadrons in this pack is in your "SQUADRONLIST.INI" file. Once you look at that file, you will know what to do. 
* Please note that some squadrons may have multiple CO planes, this is not a mistake. Rather than just picking one CO, I am representing all the COs for that squardon during the period. So both COs could pop up in given scenario. I rather have them than cut them so...it's only a game...
* Tweaked and Tested by the ODS30 team!
* Mod Direction and Optimization - Menrva
* Additional Data and Weapons improvements - Yakarov79.
* Additional Sound tweaks and updates - Guuruu.
* Accurate Skins and Decals - Viper63a
Thanks and Enjoy!

SF2 NorthAtlantic "Top Gun" Themed Hi-Res 1920x1080 Menu Screens and Music v7
By Viper 05/17/2020
Note: I removed all the nation sounds from this Menu packs for size reasons. If you intend to install the "VIPER63A HQ Menu Sounds" pack, please install that pack first. Installing the HQ Sound pack over the Menu pack may overwrite some of the menu specific music files. You can always re-install this menu pack to get the menu specific theme music back.
I've seen some very nice screens in 1920x1080 mode, so I thought I'd give it try. So here is my "Top Gun" contribution! Special thanks to Homefies and Spectre8750 for their contributions that led me here...
This mod includes custom "Top Gun" themed menu screens, pilots and music. I used the MENU INI files to reuse the music files for different menus. This reduces the size of the package as I don't have duplicates of the same music files for different menus. You should unzip the file and preview the new screens before installing them. I recommend doing this as there are MANY alternate screens I have in there that you might like better.
If you choose to install these screens, I recommend that you back up your FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders in the SF2 Mod folder you're installing this mod into. Just in case you want to go back to your original setup.
To install, simply unzip and copy the uncompressed FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder.
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win10 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...
C:\Users\<your_id>\Saved Games\Thirdwire\StrikeFighter2 NorthAtlantic\

StrikeFighter2 World War II PTO Hi-Res Alternate 1920x1080 Menu Screens and Music!
By Viper
 
I just recently downloaded the "All inclusive SF2 Pacific Theater Operations" (PTO) package from the A-Team site. Excellent package, but the menus were not to my liking...soooo...I upgraded them. These menu screens are tailored for that package, but it should work for any SF2 game with a Pacific WWII theme!
 
You should unzip the file and preview the new screens before installing them. I recommend doing to see if you like the screens before installing them.
 
If you choose to install these screens, I recommend that you back up (make a copy of) your FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders in the SF2 Mod folder you're installing this mod into. Just in case you want to go back to your original setup.
 
To install, simply unzip and copy the uncompressed FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder.
 
To remove, simply delete the FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders and rename the copies you made to FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders.
 
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win97\10 64-bit would be something like...
 
C:\Users\<your_id>\Saved Games\Thirdwire\<Name of your PTO mod folder>\
 
Enjoy!
 
PS. Check out my Init Screen mod in the "InitScreen Extra" folder...
 
 

SF2 Lockheed YF-12A "Starduster" (Veltro2K) Redux...
by Viper63a
 
This started out as an add-on pack to the "What If... SF2 Lockheed (Y)F-12A Starduster by Veltro2K" pack released by Wrench, but by the time I got done with it...it became a stand alone pack. Nothing else is required, but if you want to download the inspiration for this pack, you can find it here...
 
http://combatace.com/topic/76491-what-if-sf2-lockheed-yf-12a-starduster-by-veltro2k/
 
This pack adds the YF-12A "Starduster" and a new 1950/60s era pilot in grey flight suit. Comes complete with new skins, Hangar, Loading, Loadout and Decal files.
 
As always, I recommend that you back up your mod folder before you install any new mod...just in case.
 
* To install, simply unzip and copy the contents of the "To_Mod_Folder" folder to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder and Overwrite (if needed).
 
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win97 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...

SF2 F-22A USAF Raptors Redux 2016
by Viper63a
 
-------------------------------------------------------------
 
The default install of this mod pack requires SF2NA merged in your install. If you don't have SF2NA in your install base, you have to install the files in the "Non_SF2NA_Patch" folder for the avionics to function properly. See installation section for more details.
 
-------------------------------------------------------------
 
This is my iteration/update of the F-22A Raptors originally released by the "Raptor Team". The lion's share of the work was done by the "Raptor Team" - so I DO NOT take credit for ANY of their wonderful work. What I did was upgrade the original package with various other packages released over the years (All noted in the credits). Other than that, I've recreated and tweaked the skins to my liking, added some new squadrons, and created all new decals for the planes. Comes complete with new Hangar, Loading and Loadout files as well. The original package can be downloaded with the following and/or the links in the Credits sections...
 
-------------------------------------------------------------
What's included in this mod pack?
-------------------------------------------------------------
 
Included in this package are the 7th, 14th, 22nd, 27th, 36th, 43rd, 80th, 90th, 94th, 95th, 199th, 411th, 422nd, 433rd, 493rd, and 525th USAF F-22 Squadrons. All squadrons have the complete compliment of tail numbers. Some F-22s were re-deployed from Virginia and Hawaii to Europe (Germany/England) and Asia (Korea) as a deterrence (preparation) force for the current tension in the regions.
 
Additional Skins for this pack is available here...

Installation:
-------------------------------------------------------------
 
! As always, I recommend that you back up your mod folder before you install any new mod...just in case.
 
* To install, simply copy the contents of the "To_Mod_Folder" folder to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder and Overwrite as required.
 
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win97 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...
 
C:\Users\<your_id>\Saved Games\Thirdwire\StrikeFighter2...
 
* If you have a merged SF2NA installed, then you are done...If not, you have one more step...
 
Open the "\Optional\Non_SF2NA_Patch" folder and copy the contents of the "To_Mod_Folder" folder to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder and Overwrite as required.
 
* Lastly, please read the "F-22A SoundList Add.txt" to install the sound files.
 
Now you are done...
 
Enjoy!
 
-------------------------------------------------------------
 
NOTE: The NON-JHMCS Pilot is the default in this pack. If you want to use the JHMCS Pilot, please update the [Pilot] section of the "F-22A_DATA.ini" file. Remove the "//" from the "PilotModelName=F22A_JHMCS" line and add "//" to the "PilotModelName=F22A_Pilot" line. And Save...

SF2 C-130 Hercules and other Cargo Pilots 2016
By Viper63a
 
This mod includes additional C-130 or other cargo plane pilots. Not sure where the base pilot I modded came from, I think I got the pilot from a different mod. If anyone knows, please drop me a line so I can properly credit the creator of the LOD file.
 
To use the pilots, please add them to your "Pilots" folder and update your "<plane>DATA.INI" file's "Crew" section to display them in your planes.

SF2 Vietnam Hi-Res 1024x768 Menu Screens and Music!
By Viper
 
Special thanks to Homefies and Spectre8750 for their contributions that led me here...
 
This mod includes custom "Vietnam Era" themed menu screens, pilots and music. God willing, this is the final version!
 
What's new?
 
1) Cut and looped the menu music so they are smaller and loops nicely in the menu.
2) Entended the loading wav so the sound doesn't cut out while the game is trying to load all the mods (LOL).
3) Updated and completedly redid the Stock and Expanded Vietnam Campaign screens (More of this later).
4) Changed, added and updated some of the menu screens! I can never leave well enough alone...sorry.
5) PLus a couple of easter eggs...well not much of an easter egg...it's on the first screen...
 
Campaign screens: There are two new folders in the package. 1) Campaigns and 2) !Optional...
 
1) The "Campaigns" folder contain new images for the Vietnam Campaigns. This is optional, but I think they look better when in Campaign mode...
2) The "!Optional" folder contain new images and INI files for the Vietnam Expand Air and Ground War. Read the "Read-Me" in that folder for more detail.
 
Un-compress the package and browse the content. As usual, there are alot of alternate screens you may like better. If you choose to install these screens, I recommend that you back up your CAMPAIGN, FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders in the SF2 Mod folder you're installing this mod into. Just in case you want to go back to your original setup.
 
To install, simply unzip and copy the uncompressed CAMPAIGN, FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder. If you have the "Expanded Vietnam Air & Ground War" Package installed, take a look and copy the CAMPAIGNS folder in the "!Optional" folder into your mod folder as well. Don't forget to back up before loading any mods!
 
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win97 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...

-------------------------------------------------------------
http://combatace.com/files/file/14233-lockheed-f-117a-nighthawk-for-sf2/
                  By Dels
                  Dated 3rd September 2013
********************************************************
  MAY BE USED IAW COMBATACE FREEWARE LICENSING POLICY
  http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=26131
********************************************************
DISCLAIMER
----------
This is a third party add on of the F-117A using a model
and cockpit created by me.
The original flight model was made by Fubar512 but modified
by me.
It is designed for and works in the SF2 series of games.
VERSION NOTES
-------------
This package is as close as I could get to representing the
F-117A in service with the USAF at the time of Operation
Desert Storm.
There are some parts which I have compromised the detail
on or removed all together in order to achieve an acceptable
level of detail without reducing game performance or increasing
development time.
An example of this is the arrestor hook. The real F-117A has a door
that jettisons when the hook is deployed. I have modelled the
door to open and close so consequently, the hook is retractable.
Animation Key #1 to open/close the refuel door.
Animation Key #2 to extend/retract the COMM and NAV antennas.
Animation Key #10 to open/close the canopy.
Weapon bay doors are automatic on weapon release.
Brake chute will only deploy while on the ground, below 100kts and
with the airbrake extended.
The ejection seat included in this package comes from ravenclaw's
ACES II Ejection Seat for A-10 vers. 1.0 so all the credit goes
to him.
The original package is available for download from:
http://combatace.com/files/file/12472-aces-ii-ejection-seat-for-a-10/
INSTALLATION
------------
Very simple, extract the files from the archive to your
C:\Users\*NAME*\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 folder.
Next,
You will need to add the following to your Squadronlist.ini
file which should be in your Flight AND Pilot Data folders.
This is so the Unit Names show up. (*NOTE* This is not
essential). Make sure the XXX is replaced with the next
number in sequence in your file:
[SquadronXXX]
Name=415TFS
DisplayName=415th TFS Nightstalkers
Nation=USAF
The 416th TFS should already be in your Squadronlist.ini, but
if not, add the following:
[SquadronXXX]
Name=416TFS
DisplayName=416th TFS Silver Knights
Nation=USAF
*NOTE* If you do not have a Squadronlist.ini file in your Flight 
folder you will need to extract it from the MissionData001.CAT
file in your Flight folder using the CatPack utility.
That's it.
You will need Diego's MODUSAF pilot skin for the pilot,
or you can use whatever skin you like by editing the
F-117A_Data.ini file.
REMOVAL
-------
Reverse the above steps.

A MASSIVE thanks to Crusader for all his very useful
reference material and support without which this package
could not exist!
Thanks to all on the forum for their continuing and always
useful support.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I have had making it.

SF2 A-10A (TW Stock Version) with Authentic ODS Livery and Serials
By Viper63a
This pack contains all A-10As serving in Operation Desert Storm with authentic serial numbers. Nose art and other details are my best effort, so it may be off - but it's damn close.
When we started the ODS 30 project, we wanted to use the stock A-10A Thunderbolts. As I finished the stock A-10A, we decided to switch to Spectre's A-10As...So, the stock A-10A mod was scrapped. Alot of work into this stock version, so I decided to release it as is...
~~DO NOT INSTALL THIS MOD INTO ODS 3.0. THAT PACKAGE COMES WITH A VERSION OF A-10A DESIGNED AND CONFIGURED FOR  THE ODS PACKAGE!

SF2 Israel Hi-Res 1920x1080 Menu Screens and Music! v5
By Viper 05/17/2020
Note: I removed all the nation sounds from this Menu packs for size reasons. If you intend to install the "VIPER63A HQ Menu Sounds" pack, please install that pack first. Installing the HQ Sound pack over the Menu pack may overwrite some of the menu specific music files. You can always re-install this menu pack to get the menu specific theme music back.
Special thanks to Homefies and Spectre8750 for their contributions that led me here...
This mod includes custom "Israeli" themed menu screens, pilots and music. I used the MENU INI files to reuse the music files for different menus. This reduces the size of the package as I don't have duplicates of the same music files for different menus. You should unzip the file and preview the new screens before installing them. I recommend doing this as there are alternate screens I have in there that you might like better.
If you choose to install these screens, I recommend that you back up your FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders in the SF2 Mod folder you're installing this mod into. Just in case you want to go back to your original setup.
To install, simply unzip and copy the uncompressed FLIGHT, MENU and PILOTDATA folders to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder.

Civilian Airline Pilots 2018
By Viper63a
This mod includes civilian airline pilots. Not sure where the base pilot I modded came from, I think I got the pilot from a different mod. If anyone knows, please drop me a line so I can properly credit the creator of the LOD file.
To use the pilots, please add them to your "Pilots" folder and update your "<plane>DATA.INI" file's "Crew" section to display them in your planes.
Enjoy!

SF2 F-16C/D Block 60 Fictional USAF Squadrons.
Viper63a
 
There are rumors swirling around that the USAF will be upgrading their aging, but much needed F-16 Falcons. I knew about Spudknocker's UAE F16E/Fs and Dtmdragon's New Zealand F-16C/Ds with CFTs, but why should they have all the fun? Here are some USAF F-16C(E)/D(F) Falcon Avengers!
