A+ 5 stars Addon Monty!

Happy Birthday guys!

at the bottom of [Terrain] section check this example from my Formosa.ini file: [Terrain] TerrainFullName=Formosa Strait Taiwanhaixia DataFile=Formosa_data.INI TargetFile=Formosa_targets.INI TargetTypeFile=Formosa_types.INI MovementFile=Formosa_movement.INI NationsFile=Formosa_nations.INI BriefingText=Formosa_briefing.INI DogfightFile=Formosa_dogfight.INI DogfightOnly=FALSE CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat LimitedNations=TRUE GroundObjectTexture=green WaterMap=Formosa_Water.bmp <--------------------------here of course your should be: WaterMap=BlackSea_Water.bmp this should do

but they still take the initial amount of memory at loading

aircraftshaders.ini in ObjectData001.cat, is listing one shader for canopy: [shaderList] CANOPYGLASS.TGA=MODELCANOPY.FX try adding entry for propdisc.tga and propdisc1.tga with the same shader as for canopy: [shaderList] CANOPYGLASS.TGA=MODELCANOPY.FX PROPDISC.TGA=MODELCANOPY.FX PROPDISC1.TGA=MODELCANOPY.FX I'm at work so can't verify this, but I think there were some similar issues with canopies in the past (after WOI release? mostly regarding shadows)

Later Lightnings perhaps. Radar (and RWR, TV, FLIR/LLTV) can be in theory added to any cockpit not equipped with one by default, by sacrificing one gauge as planar mesh for radar screen, depends on general cockpit layout and gauges size (if you don't want to have clock-sized display)

much appreciated! I'll see what could be done from stock SMBD, regarding gauges movements etc

I recommend IrfanView for batch resizing -BUT- only bmp files, for tga ones you better use Gimp

Many thanks! I'll add those in the file announcement topic

There's new file aircraftshaders.ini in ObjectData001.cat. Currently listing one shader for canopy, try applying the same shader to PROPDISC.TGA

Thanks! I'll calibrate it and reupload newer version when it's done edit: Here's sweet position tweak by Coupi, placing cockpit view in the right place, with antenna mast visible:

Spinners, any chance of making carrier capable variant..? I know nothing about the process, so sorry if it's silly question

I-250? Maybe one day in future? Somewhere around "Strike Fighters 3 Expansion Pack 4: Secret weapons of the Soviet Union" I can evaluate it further into something more accurate, with parts removal, movement and all the little ini hacks; it's really one evening mod Kevin. And do you think repainted, recalibrated, Mystere pit could pass as poor man's Mig-15 replacement..? I've had that in my head since first time I ran Exp1

Eric, Monty, how much was the bribe for sponsored review..? C'mon, spill the beans jokes aside, I'm downloading this beauty as we speak! Why so sloow... MontyCZ, you did it again!

One kill, three pics: Yes, it was close... the repainted Hunter F.1 pit awaits approvement

Wszystkiego Najlepszego! Have a great one! and many many more!

Why pics? I want videos!

IIRC works in series 2 almost w/o problems, make sure you install Brain32's BRILLIANT tileset first. Also eburger68's Vietnam Air and Ground War expanison has all the updates needed, there's also nice tiles and trees adjustment in it I think (haven't been flying it in ages!) As for my Effects packs you really only need the last one, Hollywood Explosions (or wait for Hollywood Explosions 2), but there are many important effects in Gunny's WP too edit: removed duplicated post

MontyCZ, looks amazing!

File Name: Tracermania File Submitter: Stary File Submitted: 06 December 2010 File Category: SF2 Series Add On Objects Tracermania AAA Tracers and bullets modification FOR STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 Europe with Expansion pack 2 Made for and tested in SF2 all titl mergedwithes merged with Expansion Packs 1&2 by Stary version 1.0 06.12.2010 This little modification changes the number of tracers fired by all stock AAA units and patrol boats. Number of tracers has been increased 5 times, instead of every fifth bullet being tracer round now EVERY SINGLE bullet fired by Triple-A is tracer. Also I changed the data for stock partol boats, that makes these vessels track and attack air targets too. Second tweak is the increase of bullets fired in a burst by AAA crews, usually from 12 to 20 or 24. This seem to me does not make them more or less accurate. As these changes may increase CPU usage I eliminated ALL tracersmoke trails of any kind for any calibre guns (...) Click here to download this file

Congratulations on winning the battle I myself won years ago! As I happen to have FE2 installed, I'll give it a try

yes AntEater, that's simple (but very smart idea ) effect by me with help of Epizikl that adds particle-based flat pilot on a chute as part of aircraftfireeffect.ini, released almost 2 years ago, with one update later, must be part of effectpack you have currently installed

Infidel!
