Is it feasable to request modders provide the smaller texture packages for inclusion into the UI?

They could offer the large files as single options outside the pack.

There are extremely well done cockpits available but, as you mentioned, they are huge files.

AAA cannot package every mod and many mod users pick and choose anyway.

Addons outside the self installing new planes and object packs and things needed to keep online play standard, should be left to the individual to get or not get.

AAA should not be expected to provide massive download packages when most of what they contain can be added seperately by users if they read the instructions.

Whether AAA provides a large pack or users have to select what they want, there will still be many "I cannot make it work", "It crashes at whatever %" and all the other problems that crop up due to language differences, impatience, lack of ability to use the search button, etc.

AAA can well serve its intended function, make quality mods available, without the massive packages offered in the past.

It may be time to put more responsibility on the users to mod their game
