Its not so much ignorance, but more like fear, I've not been shy in the past to mod the hell out of things and have even done a lot of it myself, however while this sim' is still being supported I choose to stick with the official patch work knowing this is the safest way to avoid any potential clashes.

Yet if there are ways to implement outside changes without adversely effecting any future TD patch then I welcome the opportunity of being lead out of this condition ignorance/fear.

No need to criticize anyone for not using mods. It's not like they are some light shining upon all the blind and forgotten souls groping in the barren abyss.

Everyone's different. I've installed mods to nearly every game I've played, even those still under development, but Il-2's case is just weird. I tried the mods, but I just couldn't get into them. I love a lot of the mods, but I'd rather leave it alone until it's finished, just like Spud here.

Yes, much like that, however those you have shown are the non-TD mods are they not? And although I have been tempted to cross over to the dark side many times I’m still trying to remain an official update purist, but mods like this and that gun nose A20C make it very hard at times.

No dark side to cross over to..

Do yourself a favor.. and copy your 4.11.1 install to another location.. Then install HSFX 6.0 to that installation.. You will find nothing dark .. and bear in mind that HSFX is compatible with 4.11.1.

But it would be nice if they would bother fixing some of the more nagging multiplayer related bugs and stop modifying stock maps in drastic ways and then leaving them named the same way...

I use to play with HSFX in multiplayer (i.e. SEOW) and so far its ok, but it always leaves a 'something's odd' feeling behind. I think, especially the so called 'EXPERT MODE' is highly suspicious, and I try to avoid it as much as I can.

Can you shed any light onto my original question which lead to this talk of HSFX, in regards to has any of the love from the beaufort spread over to the Beaufighter?

Agree 100%

Agreed. Expert Mode really messed with a lot of the FM's. Also, a lot of my coops have Objectives and they do not work in Expert Mode.

That being said, HSFX-6 in non-Expert Mode has a lot to offer. I can only wish that stock IL-2 had some of it's features.

That is why the patch slows to release :p
