North Dakota Texaco tanker v1.0 for SF2
 
This is an attempt at making a better-looking target as compared to the stock cargoship. I think this looks better.
 
Be advised this uses normalmapping and is thus incompatible with versions of the game earlier than february 2010. Works fine in DX9 however though you'll not see any per-pixel lighting. Won't work in 1st gen games so don't even bother.
 
Pictars:
 


 
Installation:
 
Simply extract the contents of the package into your ground objects folder. It'll overwrite your stock cargoship so that, you know, it'll actually show up in missions.
 
Known Issues:
 
Destroyed model absolutely refuses to show up ingame. However I've included the lod file so any enterprising souls can give it a go.

I liked Starys mod but thought the winter tilesets weren't wintery enough to my liking so I made my own set of hard winter tiles.
 
To use, just drop these into the GermanyCE folder and they should unpack to their own winterhard folder.
 
Then open up the GermanyCE.ini file and change
 
[season001]
Directory=Winter
StartDate=1/1
EndDate=03/15
ScatteredChance=0
BrokenChance=40
OvercastChance=50
InclementChance=10
 
to
 
[season001]
Directory=WinterHard
StartDate=1/1
EndDate=03/15
ScatteredChance=0
BrokenChance=40
OvercastChance=50
InclementChance=10
 
These are just textures btw so if you haven't already grabbed Starys GermanyCE v3 mod, do so now or these won't work at all.

Template for the Convair Model 201 Shipboard Fighter.
 
Includes specular layer and a sample Hi-Viz USN scheme with all stencils and details.
 
Droptanks included.

Convair Model 201 for Strike Fighters 2
 
----------------------------------------------
What this is :
 
This is the CTOL version of Convair's Model 200 VSTOL entry for the Sea Control Ship fighter competition of the early 70's. It also reappeared later as GD Model 218 during the VFAX competition which ultimately ended up as the F-18.
 
There are quite a number of artist's impressions and 3-view floating around, of which most ones show a more pointy delta planform and underwing Sidewinders. That would be the earlier iterations, which by 1975 or so would have evolved into what you see here.
 
The original documentation only mentions 2 AIM-9 + 2 AIM-7 but I added 2 underwing and a centerline station because it makes the plane a bit more fun to use and isn't totally implausible.
 
----------------------------------------------
More Stuff:
 
It uses sounds from SF2E so your mileage may vary :o
 
----------------------------------------------
Known Issues:
 
None, really.

F-22 Cockpit for Strike Fighters 2
 
----------------------------------------------
Since the AFX cockpit essentially was an F-22 cockpit with changes, I decided to make a proper F-22 pit and finally got around to doing so. Also wanted to capitalize on latest developments. You'll see.
 
----------------------------------------------
Installation:
 
Drop the files into your F-22 folder.
 
----------------------------------------------
Known Issues:
 
The weapons display indicator is retarded and doesn't accurately count down the AAMRAM's. I tried various ways but none would work to my satisfaction.
 
Wing stations are not supported on the weapons display. If there is sufficient demand I could add them back but it's a handful.

CVN Ulyanovsk v1.0 for SF2
 
This is the cancelled Soviet nuclear carrier Ulyanovsk as it would have appeared had it been finished. Works fine in campaigns.
 
Uses a few big textures. If your computer can handle Ravenclaw's Buccaneer it can probably handle this.
 
Oh, and planes will generally launch through the skijump unless you use plenty of flaps. I tried having them launch diagonally but tbh either way looks as dumb. If you absolutely cannot live with it change the catapult ID's in the .ini.
 
Known Issues:
 
None that I know of.
 
Credits:
 
Model & textures by me except a few bits that were borrowed from TW CV-63 carrier.
 
These are: Catapult rails, deck trucks, railings and deck underside.

A/F-24 Shadowcat (AFX) for Strike Fighters 2
 
----------------------------------------------
Preface:
 
After making the first attempt at modelling this concept, which ended up as the not-very-accurate F-24 Shadowcat for WOI, I decided to go back and, armed with a lot more research material and better workflow, redo the entire thing from the ground up as accurate as is possible with unbuilt concepts. It originally was to feature a new cockpit based on that of the A-12 Avenger II, but this turned out to look quite ugly ingame. I eventually found out that the real thing was to use cockpit displays from the F-22 for sakes of commonality, so I decided I might as well build a straight-down navalized F-22 cockpit for which a whole lot more reference material is available.
 
----------------------------------------------
Known Issues:
 
The cockpit isn't 100% complete. I thought it was better to release something that's 99% complete and fix it later which I will as it was always part of the plan to adapt the cockpit back into a straight F-22 pit.
 
For some reason all of your wingmen except #2 will tip over and crash on the taxiway. No idea why this happens. They all start fine from the carrier though.

Here are the layered PSD templates for the F-24 including the VF-154 scheme in 5x2048^2 size.
 
Enjoy.

Forgot to include the readme file :(

Quickie job. No custom decals as I cannot seem to make ones that work properly. Anyone who wants to is welcome to do accurate buno/modex decals for it.

These are complete base templates for the standard Navy camo with decals, sans squadron markings.
 
Feel free to let your creativity run amok.

This is a fictional VTOL jet inspired by the Kestrel jet from the Amiga games Zeewolf and Zeewolf 2. It is similar to the Harrier, but lighter and with vastly more powerful turbofan which, while making pop-up'n'fire-attacks a breeze, does guzzle up fuel at a rather alarming rate when in hover mode.
 
Features:
 
Custom cockpit by yours truly.
 
Skin template included for your skinning pleasures.
 
3 skins:
 
Ferris-type experimental camo
 
Swedish Navy Gripen-style camo
 
USMC Desert camo
 
------------------
 
People whose textures I've shamelessly borrowed/ripped off:
 
Kesselbrut - Vigi pit for the side consoles
 
Batman - Random gauges from the excellent F-4J cockpit because I was too lazy to do them myself :)
 
The rest of the pit is mine, however.
 
------------------
 
Other info:
 
This is a work in progress and subsequent refinements will be posted as time permits. In the meantime, I'll be grateful for any comments/suggestions.

Legal stuff:
 
Sell or claim this as your own work and I will bust your kneecaps, steal your mother, rape your TV and smash your f***ing head in.
 
Same goes for trying to sneak this into some payware package.

Because the stock music sucks, here's a pack that replaces it with catchy old-school SID tunes from the following games/composers:
 
LightForce - Rob Hubbard
X-Out - Michael Hendriks
Turrican - Stefan Hartwig/Ramiro Vaca
Rambo II - Martin Galway
Bionic Commando - Tim Follin
 
Be sure to back up your original files as these tunes might be an "acquired taste".
 
Cheers,
