With STOCK (with absolutelly NO MODs) SF2:NA install updated with the April patch, I was able to finish the campaign (Victoriously) with both the F-14 and the A-7E and I didn't had any bug or problems with the campaign (such as the Soviet fleet spawning in the middle of the US fleet or others).
In fact the SF2:NA campaign with the April patch was IMO the best flight sim campaign that I played for years (excluding perhaps Falcon 4) since the "old days" (with titles such as Jane's LB2, F-15, F/A-18, etc...) being one of the most thrilling and without bug experiences that I had (again in many years).


Thanks ricnunes, I didn't see the feedback addressing the spawning, so will definitely give it a whirl this weekend. I have been cruising the TK forums and was surprised about a lack of comment on the fixed fleet spawning. Again, thanks for the feedback. Its been quite awhile since I played this series and can't wait to get the multitude of downloads available for it.

Anyone have any good Intruder recommendations?

You can drop this into your stock A-6 folders to make them flyable. http://combatace.com/files/file/12061-a-6e-cockpit/

Flight model feels a bit roll-happy, at least compared to the other TW planes.

I've enjoyed playing NA campaign and a slightly modded version too, after the April patch.

I've enjoyed the SF2NA campaign too, especially after modding it to create '89 and '99 technology level campaigns. :p

What affect did this have? Off of the top of my head I have to imagine the US got more capable strikers.

How was this accomplished?

I just extracted the campaign config files from the main folder and edited them to be the dates 1989 and 1999 respectively, as well as converted some squadrons to their time-period aircraft. Haven't finished converting all of them yet, but once those fishbeds and floggers become foxbats and fulcrums, its gonna be fuuuuun.

Though starting as a Hornet off the carrier is also fuuuuun. biggrin

Flew the campaign in the F-15A. Good fun, no bugs that I noticed.

Excuse my ignorance but where can I get the A-6 cockpit itself? From what I read your superpak is an "extra" for the A-6 cokcpit (resuming the cockpit is not included).

Another question: Can I install this superpak without using the "Generic Mod Enabler"? Is it possible to install this "manually" just like the majority of all mods/extras for SF2?
