I think that was wrt having both sets of FMs in the UP install?
Where they would add a symbol like '@' to the menu name of the P51 (i.e. @P-51D-20) to designate the HSFX version and a different symbol for the UP version so people could pick which one they wanted to use..
I am pretty sure is the 'support' they dropped that Jinnx was talking about..
I recall seeing the thread over at UP forums where they admitted doing that was too hard for their personal to keep track of the different FMs..
Reasoning I always found rather odd..
When you consider the fact that their or dozens of new slot aircraft with slightly different FMs..
How does 3 or 4 more different slot variations P51 suddenly become too much for their personal?
Just does not ring true and/or pass the smell test IMHO
But the fact remains that UP 'chooses' for you which mods your going to use where as HSFX leaves it to the user to 'choose' which mods they want to add beyond the 'basic' set of mods..
That and months of testing was done by the HSFX personal to ensure the compatibility of the 'basic' set of mods, which resulted in a very stable release..
Where as UP took more of the kitchen sink approach and included just about every available mod and stuck it in there, and all done in a very short amount of time (a week or so post the the release of HSFX 4.0) which left very little time for compatibility and stability testing..
