File Name: SF2 Scooters! Vol.3 Skinpack for TW A-4 File Submitter: Nyghtfall File Submitted: 12 July 2015 File Category: A-4 Scooters! Vol.3 Skinpack for Thirdwire A-4 Skyhawks by Nyghtfall v1.0 ======================================================= *** SF2, SF2V required. Tested in full 5-merged installation *** *** DLC 019 A-4L for 1 Skin *** For this pack I used a somewhat different approach. While playing campaigns, your plane gets upgraded from time to time or the plane changes to a new variant. So I did skins for the upgradepath of some squadrons, that flew in Rolling Thunder Campaign in addition to the ones I already did for the following: VA-153 Blue Tail Flies (2 more in Redux), VA-155 Silver Foxes (completly new) and VA-192 Golden Dragons (2 more in Redux). VA-56 Champions is completely new and included upon special request. And last but not least I did 2 special skins for VMA-142 just for fun and these are included too. This pack contains new skins - VA-56 Champions, USS Ticonderoga, 9/1965 to 5/1966 for A-4E_65 - VA-56 Champions, USS Enterprise, 11/1966 to 7/1967 for A-4C_65 - VA-56 Champions, USS Enterprise, 1/1968 to 6/1968 for A-4E_65 - VA-153 Blue Tail Flies, USS Coral Sea, 7/1967 to 4/1968 for A-4E_65 - VA-155 Silver Foxes, USS Coral Sea, 12/1964 to 11/1965 for A-4E and A-4E_65 - VA-155 Silver Foxes, USS Constellation, 10/1966 to 12/1966 for A-4E_65 - VA-155 Silver Foxes, USS Constellation, 5/1966 for 9/1966 for A-4E_65 (experimental camouflage) - VA-155 Silver Foxes, USS Coral Sea, 7/1967 to 4/1968 for A-4E_65 - VA-192 Golden Dragons, USS Bon Homme Richard, 4/1965 to 1/1966 for A-4C and A-4C_65 - VA-192 Golden Dragons, US Ticonderoga, 12/1967 to 8/1968 for A-4F and just for fun: - VMA-142 Flying Gators, NAS Jacksonville, Florida in their '76 Bicentennial Aniversary scheme for A-4F_74 and A-4L Hangarscreens are included in 1920x1080 resolution as default and 1024x768 as optional.

File Name: SF2 A-4E(67) VA-192 'Golden Dragons' 1967 File Submitter: Nyghtfall File Submitted: 08 October 2014 File Category: A-4 A-4E (67) Skyhawk, VA-192 'Golden Dragons' Vietnam 1967 Skinpack by Nyghtfall v1.1 ============================================================================= *** SF2V required for A-4E_67-model, tested in full 5-merged installation *** The skin represents A-4Es from VA-192 'Golden Dragons' between October 1966 and May 1967 aboard the carrier USS Ticonderoga in Vietnam. All BuNo are correct for this squadron including Modex. Some highlights on this skinpack are: - new Baseskin with highter resolution (2048x2048) - new Decals for nearly everything :) - special Decals for the CAG bird (Number x00) - updated data.ini is included, which contains the working canopy (SHIFT+0) and landing light (thanks to Wrench). Known Issues ============ - not all A-4Es had the Avionics Hump. I'm not sure, but I would think squadrons had a mix of A-4Es with and without hump and as my mainsource had one, it was the way to go. - the color-sequence of the cag-bird is open for discussion, you can find 2 versions (tailcolors upside down on the 2nd), i chose the more common Installation ============ 1. unzip to a temporary folder 2. copy 'Objects'-folder from the zip to your mods 'Objects'-folder, if asked to overwrite, say 'yes'. 3. enjoy! Credits ======= - Thirdwire and TK for a great game, nice models, skins and some decals I used as pattern - ZScout370, wikimedia - USAF Insignia - Wrench, updated data.ini Thanks ====== - Soulfreak, for your decalpattern, which was a BIG help to improve the baseskin and fill it with "life"! - Blowhard, for the weathering-tutorial at http://www.eaf51.org/Photoshop/Tutorial/Basic_Weathering.htm - Wrench (also for help with flap-decals), ikon71, Stratos, CrazyhorseB34, cocas and EricJ for your help with the color-issues - Sundowner (F-105D template) as inspiration on how to handle certain things in a template, as it was the first one, I created - all modders at CombatAce for their work and inspiration!

File Name: Ticonderoga class cruiser superpack File Submitter: WhiteBoySamurai File Submitted: 09 June 2012 File Category: Cruisers This package includes every variant of the Ticonderoga class Aegis cruisers, including: CG-47 Baseline 1 (Mk26 twin arm launcher) CG-52 Baseline 2 (Mk41 VLS) CG-59 Baseline 3&4 (improved sensors and weapons) CG-52_06 (first round of modernization refits circa 2006) CG-52_12 (final Cruiser Conversion Program refits, starting 2012) Naturally, all sounds, decals, weapons, ship name and number lists are included. The CG-52 and CG-59 variants are further divided into air defense and land attack versions, armed with Standard Missiles and Tomahawks respectively. Each of the air defense ships also comes with two different data.ini files: the default, which uses a true VLS weapon system (albeit one missile and one target at a time and disables the Harpoon missiles), and a data_EX.ini version, which enables multiple simultaneous engagements and is almost as deadly as its real life counterpart. Use whichever one you like, depending on if you prefer realistic visuals or realistic performance. The Ticonderoga has always been my "flagship" project (pun intended), and so I've updated the models using everything I've learned in the year since I started modding. I've also added a small Easter Egg for those of you who want to try a helicopter takeoff from from this ship. Note: The weapon systems, collision mesh, and decals have been updated for compatibility with SF2: North Atlantic and the March 2012 patch. If you have not installed/do not plan to install either, this model will not work properly. See the readme file for full details.

File Name: CG-59 Ticonderoga class Aegis cruiser File Submitter: WhiteBoySamurai File Submitted: 05 June 2011 File Category: Cruisers This model represents the Baseline 3 and 4 Ticonderoga class cruisers (CG-59~CG-73), in service from 1988 to present (upgrades and refits notwithstanding). This baseline of the ship is equipped with a number of upgrades, including an improved SPY-1B radar, SARTIS sensors, and missile systems. With over 120 long-range highly accurate missiles, this vessel is by far the single most dangerous GroundObject ever released for the ThirdWire games. Both air defense and land attack versions of the ship are included, as well as name and hull number decals for each ship of the class, plus the necessary sounds, guns, and weapons. Note: The weapon systems, collision mesh, and decals have been updated for compatibility with SF2: North Atlantic and the March 2012 patch. If you have not installed/do not plan to install either, this model will not work properly. See the readme file for full details.

File Name: CG-52 Ticonderoga class Aegis cruiser File Submitter: WhiteBoySamurai File Submitted: 29 May 2011 File Category: Cruisers This model represents the Baseline 2 Ticonderoga class cruisers (CG-52~CG-58), in service from 1986 to present (upgrades and refits notwithstanding). These were the first vessels to be equipped with a vertical launch system (VLS), granting vastly increased capability and adaptability. With over 120 long-range highly accurate missiles, this vessel is by far the single most dangerous GroundObject ever released for the ThirdWire games. Both air defense and land attack versions of the ship are included, as well as name and hull number decals for each ship of the class, plus the necessary sounds, guns, and weapons.

File Name: CG-47 Ticonderoga class Aegis cruiser File Submitter: WhiteBoySamurai File Submitted: 18 May 2011 File Category: Cruisers This model represents the early Baseline 1 Ticonderoga class cruisers (CG-47~CG-51), serving the US Navy from 1983 until 2005. They were the first vessels to be equipped with the Aegis combat system and the advanced SPY-1 radar. This is my first major 3DMax project and my first model release for the Thirdwire games, now completely overhauled using everything I've learned about modding over the past year. This update gives the ship full compatibility with the SF2:NA/March 2012 patch game engine. It includes features such as working fore and aft Standard Missile launchers, new effects, optimized collision mesh, and helo deck that doesn't turn the ship unsinkable. Note that these updates may not be compatible with earlier versions of the game.
