This will be My last 102 for awhile.......460th FIS Portland IAP, Ore. 1970. Got more .tga's to do, then I'll be uploading it. Semper Fi! 331KillerBee

The "FX's" are DX10 Plug-in's from the DX10 Library. You can't acess them. I think the can be tweaked. And they'll run on DX9c Machines. They won't effect Old Effects if they are not using those Lines.

Many have PM'd Me about this and the Idea has come up. If You have a certian Unit that You want to do. PM Me. I'll provide Unit Information so Many can contribute to this. I can supply Unit Info direct if it's a Marine Unit. For USAF and USN Units, I'll have to give You Instructions on how to obtain the Information that You are seeking. I recommend Downloading Comprnt's VMFA-531 Mission Packs and use it as a Model and Guideline to help out. My feeling is, Teamwork is a good Community thing..... Most Importantly. There's only one Rule. Use only the Historical Information. Remember, We're doing it for those that flew over there... 331KB

The 431st FIS Skin is Uploaded awaiting Approval......

View File 431st FIS Pack This is the 431st FIS based at Zaragosa AB, Spain from 1960 to 1964. ReadMe is included. This Package contains Two (2) Skins. The Commanding Officers Aircraft and the rest of the Squadron is the other Skin. Enjoy!

Mike, That Information falls in line with the statement that I said that they were LAU capable. The ITT Cannon Plugs are the same for all LAU's as it is for the TER's. They use the same Connecter. The SUU's do too.

That's Cool! I'll be sure You get it. They had the 102's from 1960 to 1964. They were Based at Zaragosa AB, Spain. After the 102's, They Transistioned to the F-4C and became the 431st Tactical Fighter Squadron under TAC.

Nope....There's no competing in a Free and Open Sim..... I just doing Missions....That's all.

None what so ever, From what I've read. The Rocket Increase was a Field Mod. Most of them used by Vietnam had this Package for Project "Stove Pipe". I read a Link a while back that said that they wired the Outboard Pylons for Rockets durning Nam' too. Convair tried to get the AF to buy a fighter/Bomber Version....But declined. The AF Squadrons never followed up on their Outboard Rocket Mod either.....

C5, These might just make it......Here's the CO's Bird....

431st FIS Commanding Officers Aircraft 1963......... Semper Fi! 331KillerBee

This is a WIP will be done in a Day or Two.....431st FIS out of Spain....

If You haven't created a "Decals" Folder for Your Install. You'll have to make one........Sorry.

Happy Birthday!

Might work with alot a Editting. Haven't tried it Backwards. I know that all the Encoding of the .INI's will have to be changed. Tried the Aircraft back when I first got SF2 in December. The "Old" Game Engine wouldn't read the Aircraft's .LOD's, It might be the same for the Cockpit .LOD's as well......I don't know.

For those who want to get involved and want a "Head Start" on things, Check this older Thread out: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=39680 The overall Mission Packs will be dedicated to My Father that was Shot Down over Laos in 1970. It'll be dedicated to Him and all the Aviators whom Missions that We'd be pertraying.

Sure Enough Comrpnt! I'll lead You to all the VMFA-531 Information that You can stand. Just PM Me when You're ready.

Keep in Mind that CACTA's and the AAR's are the "Official" Documents reported to the Department of Defence and the US Goverment as to the Air Activities in South East Asia.......They will be the source of the Information.

The first Sets will be concentrated on the Stock Aircraft from ThirdWire. Then I'll move to Third-Party Aircraft with Instructions on the Links for the Downloads or Requirements to obtain Downloads from certian Sites. No additional Model work is to be done that's not already done and proven works in a overall Install. Each Mission Pack will be Set up Generic in nature. But a ReadMe will be attached with Recommendations as to Enhancments to the Mission Packs. A list of Links, if You will. and Instructions on how to apply them. Of course, There will be a Baseline of recomended Enhancments such as, Weapons Packs, Effects.....ect. But these Missions will work on a "Stock" Install out of the Box. As far as Terrain Enhancements go, Most all are based off the Original Terrain anyway.So these Missions should work for the majority of those Mods.

Yes....For a "Stock" Install.....But can be a Foundation for One to Upgrade the Mission via Editting the Skin or add more Ground Objects if one wishes. If People want more as in Models and Ground Object Models...........I'd have to defer to a Product that's avaliable out somewhere. They'd have to Pay for it. Mine will be for "Free".

I'll be starting New Mission Packs that can be used for both WOV and SF2Vietnam. The Mission Packs will be based on Authenic AAR's and CACTA's provided by the US Goverment. Each Pack will be based on Unit Designation and will be in Chronological Order. TPQ's which are Test Pilot Qualification Flights and Ferrying Flights will not be included. As I work on this, The order of the Services will follow, Starting with the Service I'm most familiar with. 1) USMC Units 2) USN Units 3) USAF Units 4) RAAF Units 5) VNAF Units 6) ROK Units 7) Loas Units 8) CIA/Air America Opperations If anyone that is familiar with the Mission Editors and want to contribute to this Project, Please PM Me. The more, The marryr'...If You have a piticular Unit or Service You want to work on, I'll help in the Reference Material end of it. Semper Fi! 331KillerBee

Thank You Guys! A Note here......I forgot the Drop Tank Texture Skin for this Aircraft Skin. Please check for it here in the "New File Announcments" or Under the "Cold War" Section of the TW Skins......It'll be with all the other Century Series Fighters. (ie. F-100, F-101, F-102......ect.) The File is called SEA Tank_360f102.rar

Excellent Work hgbn! Look foward to the Squadrons!

What Crusader said is right. One other Factor is the Maxium Launch Distance of the Missle being fired. If it's outside of "Range", Even if You have the Target Selcted, It won't fire.
