The chap that did the bulk of the work for HSFX v4 was given the SFS compiler on the strict understanding that it wouldn't be passed on. Even the owner's name is kept quiet in order (I suspect) to prevent the poor devil from being swamped with 'I wan't this', 'Can you make me this?', 'This is porked' mails that would ensue.
The number of folk who have actually thanked the HSFX team (and by association, all of the other mod creators) is far fewer than those who have whined about or demanded more in it.
Keeping the integrity of the sim intact must be the number one priority though. It's a shame for people like tater who don't go online, but I'm happy in the knowledge that HSFX and the other mod packs won't allow any tinkering with Oleg's FMs, and are attempting to have everything they include tied to the historical facts.
