HSFX 4.11 Patch

Post by 242Sqn_Chap » Tue Feb 09, 2010 10:05 am

This is a small patch, HSFX 4.11, that includes all the previous hotfix's material, plus also fix's a problem with some of the shippack ships Damage Model. This is the major component, a recompiled SFS archive that corrects these ships Damage Model (by Maraz.)

It also includes a stable 256mb 'expanded' exe which is good for Midway and TheChannel Scorched Earth Sectors.

This patch is primarily for the SEOW groups.

Get it from the above. People will post some ftp links I hope later for those for whom torrents are a dark art.

Just to confirm, do we unrar (is that a word?) the downloaded files into the IL2 1946 main folder?

Yes of course:-

Go into il2 Sturmovik /jsgmemods/Hsfx history mod (standard) & 6DOF_Tracker_2_0_sHr (6do)

And back up your current il2fb.exe install the patch and then replace with the exe's that you backed up.

Marty, unzip to desktop and then click on the executable, it should automaticaly find the path etc after that.

Charlie, I get 4 rar files. The only application is called Hud_mod. Is that the exe you're referring to?

Are HSFX 4.1 and 4.11 compatible?

Is this a "mandatory" patch?

The very question I was about to ask?
I would hate to be booted from a game with or without the patch.
And can someone work on a hotfix for the Junkers J88 C-6 :D

Yes if you play without CRT...but its not advisable, you can experience weird behaviour.

Its official Yes

You definitely need this if you fly at all in:- Centmed Libya Channel42 NewGuinea Midway or TheSlot because it effects ships that these have and in the case of one sector (Centmed), introduces a new aircraft type with new loadout options.

You probably could get away without it if you only fly on the Eastfront currently or on servers that run 4.09 but are open to Mods as they only use stock aircraft.

Hope all who fly The Slot get it installed for this Saturday's mission

:shock: I don't like the looks of that probably. Can the hosts of the Eastern Front mission weigh in on recommendations for the players? Kuban is Thursday. Thanks

I could get Authoritarian all over the place couldn't I and tell people that they MUST have this....

But ultimately its all a matter of personal choice.

How about 'You would be very foolish not to install this Official Update' ?

It contains positive things that will be of benefit to everybody that has it in the long term ! (even if not directly in the next day or so in some cases.)

Do you think that would help Armwaar ?

are there any direct download links? Torrents don't work so well on my side with my limited bandwidth.
