📋 About This Mod

No longer provide update, may not be compatible with other mods.

Based on INF model.

Rythus for the extracted model.

Fantasama for the skin weathering and MREC texture.

Megalith for debugging with me.

sincerity2103 for add-on conversion.

Mod contains two versions:

- Model-swap

Model-swap contain three packages:

~~~~R-101_Base_P.pak - base mod and skin 2(UPEO), skin 3(NEU), skin 7(SARF)

~~~~R-101_Skin Pack_INF_ver_P.pak - INF skin for skin 1 , skin 4, 5, 6 are tigger version.

~~~~R-101_Skin Pack_Without_Camo_P.pak - INF skin but with out camo on it for skin 1 , skin 4, 5, 6 are tigger version.

Add-On contain three packages:

R-101_Add-On_Main_Module_P.pak - base module

~R-101_Add-On_Localisation-DataTable_P.pak - datatable and localisation module

~R-101_Add-On_INF_Trigger_NoCamo_P.pak - INF and Trigger skins without camo

The Add-On skips Skin 01, 02 and 03, resulting in not being able to use arrow keys to choose skins on aircraft selection menu, and you will need to use the skin selection menu instead.

Cockpit view uses adf11f.

Installation:

Model-swap:

Drop the base file ~~~~R-101_Base_P.pak  AND desired skin file (ex: ~~~~R-101_Skin Pack_INF_ver_P.pak)

into \SteamApps\common\ACE COMBAT 7\Game\Content\Paks\~mods

Drop the base module R-101_Add-On_Main_Module_P.pak AND ~R-101_Add-On_Localisation-DataTable_P.pak

into \SteamApps\common\ACE COMBAT 7\Game\Content\Paks\~mods

If you don't want camo on INF and Trigger skins, drop in ~R-101_Add-On_INF_Trigger_NoCamo_P.pak as well.

NOTE:

The model-swap does not contain PlayerPlaneDataTable due to the compatibility with other mods,  so the payload is lower than normal and weapon name is same as F-15J in menu, It doesn't affect how it works 'in flight'.

Due to the model-swap have performance and collision volume change, play in MP may have potential risk of getting banned, I don't support cheating and abusing other player in MP, I'm not responsible for being banned because of using this mod in multiplayer, use at your own risk.
