modded 4.09m -- how to?
#1

hello to all.
Sorry if it was asked befor, but I want to install a 4.09m patcsh at this weekend, but t'm just confusid how to make it properly.
So fare I have 4.09b1 + UI 1.1 modded game. Everything works fine but I wantnew crafts from 4.09m.
So I'm confused: UI 1.2 or HSFX or UP or what?
And, please, what's the easyest way (step by step description, plese) to make my game 4.09m + all my mods?
Thank you.

I had a clean 4.08m install. 4.09m patched straight onto that and then installed HSFX 4.0.

First delete or move your MODS and Files folders + replace files.sfs and il2fb.exe with 4.08 versions

Just choose the mods you want to activate from the included switcher once HSFX is installed.

Was straightforward with no glitches for me. Tested online and off.

Some mods may conflict with others (ie Zuti mod), but AFAIK this is getting fixed for next release. The "JSGME.exe " (switcher) will give warnings where appropriate.

I still use my original sound mod v 1 patched to 4.09m as it has some WIP stuff in there, even if it takes 20 minutes to load. It was a squad decision to use HSFX over UI at this stage.

Thank you so much, Fisneaky! You are a man!

This is exactly the desision/explanation that I was louking for! Smile
I'll try it tonight! TY!


P.S.: the only thin I am not sure of is this: is "HSFX HISTORY MOD" the only mod I'll be capabl of disabling/enabling with JGSME intreface after install?
What if I want to revert back to some of my own favourite sounds/textures/effects mods? :roll:

Not explored that possibility yet as I only patched it at weekend. With JGSME you should be able to set your current mods as an option; though there is the possibility of conflicts using with those included with HSFX. It would need a folder with "Files", "Mods", il2fb.exe, wrapper.dll,files.sfs from your current install.

Suggest to back those up someplace, but you may find HSFX gives you many of those or better. Also 4.01 HSFX is in the pipeline.

The only differences from 4.09b and 4.09m are in the

Quote:fb_3do19.SFS
fb_3do20.SFS
fb_maps15.SFS
files.SFS
il2_core.dll
il2_corep4.dll
mg_snd.dll
mg_snd_sse.dll

+ of course new Paint Schemes

I see no reason why just patching your (Standard vanilla) 4.09b to 4.09m would not work with the mods you already have.

Sorry, my english is bad, so I didn't understand: is HSFX 4.01 available for using alredy?

Do you mean you suggest simply to install official 4.09m right over my curent (4.09b+custom mods) version? :roll:
I really not sure it will work fine afterward...

HSFX 4.01 is not out yet. It's said it will be more inclusive of UI mods.

Check link to SAS in this thread - http://allaircraftsimulations.com/forum/...highlight=

SAS - http://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,1008.0.html

To summarise - I have patched a vanilla 4.08m to 4.09m and added HSFX - working

I have 4.09b modded on another rig - as yet unpatched - so untested.


Guess your choices should be governed by whether it's for online or offline play.

See my posting intalling 4.09m patch.... Game loads and game freezes at 95%.
My final comment in there is success: an unclean install.
Go SAS et.c ; it's all there. That should give you lot of info. :!:
