CFA-44 -ACES- Skin and Stat Modification

This mod brings an attempt to replicate CFA-44 -ACES- similar to the one from Ace Combat 6's DLC, with Project Aces logo on the left wing and "AC 006" tailcode.

REQUIREMENTS:

• []CFA-44 Nosferatu Set from Original Aircraft Series DLC (for the CFA-44 itself)

  []Experimental Aircraft Series DLC (if wanting to replace Skin 8 - Butterfly Master skin slot)

  DESCRIPTION:

  This mod brings CFA-44 -ACES- skin to Ace Combat 7. The skin can replace skin 1 - 8.

  Additionally, with sincerity's Additional Skin Slot mod, the skin can also be put on slot 9-18 (download file is separated from the one for slot 1-8).

  As a separate module (separate download), stat modification is also available to give users the -ACES- experience closer (though not completely the same) to the original. This stat modification can be applied to all skins, or to a skin slot of your choosing. The Plane & Weapon Modification packs several files:

  • []CFA-44_ACES_Main_P.pak - This file does nothing on its own, but is REQUIRED for the stat change to work (the game will crash if this file is not present but one (or more) of the skin-stat change file is present)

  • []ADMM: Modifies ADMM to have increased damage (each missile can 1-shot any non-boss plane), wider homing and tracking angle, longer lock range (10000m), and splash damage, but also increases lock stack limit to 12 (can stack all missiles at one target) and lock speed to near-instant. This is intended to give the original ADMM 'feel' - fires 12-missile salvo at once regardless of number of lock.

    []EML: Modifies CFA-44's EML to have increased damage (each shot can 1-shot any non-boss plane), bigger hitbox, faster travel time, and faster reload (0. 5s), but fires only 1 at a time. This is to emulate the performance of ACE6's EML. However, it does not replicate the 'piercing' property of the original ACE6 version.

    []GUN: Modifies CFA-44' GUN by tripling its damage. The intention is to give similar feel to how destructive ACE6's gun is.

    []Plane (CFA-44): Modifies CFA-44's plane statistics. Very slight increase in speed, reduced stall speed (160 now, from 220), removed High-G locking after High-G turn (meaning it can PSM right after like other planes, and no longer continues to bleed speed once the turn ends). Health significantly reduced (1 missile from normal enemy will inflict 95% damage to it - this is similar to how it is in ACE6 on Normal difficulty).

    []CFA-44_ACES_PPDT_P.pak - (OPTIONAL) Modifies CFA-44's ammo stat, applies to ALL SKIN SLOTS. ADMM ammo reduced to 72 (only 6 full 12-missile salvos), EML shot count reduced to 8, IEWS charge increased to 8. Flare reduced to 0. This aims to mimic the original ACE6 version'
