There are two major (like in "giant") mods for IL-2 (in historical order)
1. sHr's 6DoF mod
2. ZUTI's MDS
Both have small bugs and limitations but both get IL-2 to a new level. The 6dof mod development had been stopped shortly after its release (and needs one good coder for revamp) but ZUTI is still working on his MDS hard.
I find this topic a bit insinuatory. ZUTI basicaly did what "Maddox Games" couldn't. And by reverse ingeneering mind you. Sure maybe he had a time/knowledge base advantage and maybe Maddox cancel such idea for IL-2 at some point... but he did it and he still works hard on it and deserves a lot of appreciation for this and not back-words like... "you know... this MDS is kinda fishy... unstable... maybe we should scrap it...". People that don't know exactly the "enormity" of MDS and its huge importance could take words of L'Aurens and KG Alpha for good (based on their reputation here) and march on this false track.
4.10 as far as I care is MDS. the rest is just bonus.
