Hi everyone.

I have installed HSFX 4.11 and I' m dying to use the new cameras with Zephyr's Pat_Smoke mod.
I tried to enable it with JGSME ( added the PAT_Smoke mod in the Jgsmemod folder), but F8 and F9 really dont do anything new...
Should I create a new folder called MODS and install the PAT_Smoke in there or is that mod simply not working with HSFX ?


I also have a problem with the pilot's campaign... Every text in the game is in english but the campaign infos and briefings are in russian... Could someone let me know how to solve this.


BTW, I would like to thank all moders and skins makers for there work, because I jumped from Pacific Fighters to 1946+HSFX 4.11 yesterday and WOW ! ! ! I'm stunned ! hock:

OK,

So if you have the same install as I do ( CD4.07m + 4.08m + 4.09m + HSFX4.0 + HSFX4.1 + HSFX4.11 ), this is how you make the PAT_Smoke mod work :

-Create a new folder in IL-2 Sutmovik 1946 and call it "MODS"
-Extract AAA_PAT_SMOKE in that folder and you're done. ( PAT_Smoke does not work when installed to Jgsmemods folder )



If your game is in english but the Pilot Carrier is in russian, this is what you do :

-Open DGen folder and find the .dat documents ( you can read them with Notepad ).
-Find the files that are not named with an "_fr or _de". Those are the english ones.
-Open the first one, select all document and copy it.
-Open the same file that has the " _ru " attach to its name, select all document and paste.

This may take some time as you have to go through every .dat one by one and there's a ton of them.

I also found in the DGEN folder a file called "confDE" (as my carrier is in the Luftwaffe probably) that has a line stating "Language : Russian".
I changed it to " Language : English ".

And in the Mission folder, follow this path : Mission/Campaign/DE/dgen_f_******/conf and you'll find that same line saying " Language : Russian " that you you can change to " language : English". ( again, if your carrier is not in the Luftwaffe, you may need to follow another path.)

I don't really know what works better, but I've simply opened all folder and checked .pat written in russian and replaced them.... Now my pilot's carrier is back in english as well as every other infos such as briefings, etc...

Probably this solutions is barbaric, but it worked for me !

For the camera controls,

The keys to use are for these slots in controls:

F8 = Chase View
F9 = Toggle Snap/Pan View

So, if you changed your controls so that you hit another key for Chase View (let us say changed to F5 so it will be like Red Baron 3D), that is the key (F5 in my example) you now need to hit to change the views. Then whatever key you have assigned to Toggle Snap/Pan View is the key to press instead of F9

So check your key settings under control and see what keys are listed for those slots.

Now, the Toggle Snap/Pan View works for all camera positions, but the Chase View only works for the plane you are flying, with one exception. In an online game, if you record a track, but then exit to the ready room (pick sides and planes) just looking at the map, but still recording your track, Now when you play back the track, the camera change from the Chase View is now available for all planes flying.

( PAT_Smoke does not work when installed to Jgsmemods folder )

Pat Smoke Installs for me through JGSME, though I need to install it before I install Uranium Mod, else the game freezes up.

Pat Smoke Mod, A broken even with other mods Zuti. Creating a separate directory and throwing MODS patmod there is a half solution.
Quarrel patmod class. The version you have is much more extensive than that which was made available. If found himself eager to bring to class patmoda UP2.0n is willing to share full modem. You have to rip it, and our mechanic, has been banned us.
