Hi, please can somebody help out a new guy.
I have IL2 1946 with the patches and have just installed HSFX 4.0 and 4.1.
I am particularly interested in RAF 1940 campaigns and was delighted to see that HSFX included Belgium, France etc. 1940 which can be selected from the RAF pilot career.
However, when I selected Belgium 1940 for example the mission briefing screen said it was 16th April 1942. I thought that this may just be a 'glitch' so carried on and started the mission. I set off and hit shift F2 and ctrl F2 to see what else was in the air, saw Blenheims, ME109s and Stukas but to my surprise also saw a ME410, which was not introduced until 1943. So I'm totally confused, was I in 1940, 1942 or 1943.
Of course, it could just be me a new guy missing something, should I have downloaded anything else to go with HSFX? (Also when I had a look at the desert campaigns I was surprised that the RAF Hurricane wasn't available in desert camoflage, again have I missed something here)
Can anyone point me in the direction of a good 1940 RAF offline campaign?Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.
