Skies~Of~Fire - Modpack - v1 for HSFX 4.1

This mod pack was created for use with the HSFX Mod v4.1.
It contains mods intended for use in the Skies~Of~Fire & Skies~Of~Valor servers.
It requires a working installation of Il-2 v4.09m with HSFX v4.1.

Installation instructions below. Please read before installing!

-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------INSTALLATION-----------------
-------------------------------------------------------

1) Deactivate all of your mods using the JSGME.exe mod activator in
your 'Il-2 Sturmovik 1946' folder.

2) Run the 'SOF_Modpack_v1' auto-installer, point it at your 'Il-2
Sturmovik 1946' folder, and extract.

3) Activate your mods. For Skies~Of~Fire and Skies~Of~Valor, activate
the HSFX History Mod, along with the mods that start with 'SOF'.

Once your SOF mods are loaded, go ahead and load any additional mods
such as 'EFFECTS HIGH', 'Perfect Map Textures', or '6DOF_Tracker'.

Your game is now optimized for playing in SOF and SOV!

4) [optional] You can also use mod profiles to load your mods. The
pack includes 2 mod profiles. You will find them in the 'Il-2
Sturmovik 1946/jsgmemods' folder. To load a profile, run the
JSGME.exe, click the tasks button, choose 'load mod profile', and
navigate to your 'jsgmemods' folder and load the profile of your choice:

'SOF_mods.mep' loads the standard mods - the ones that start with SOF
'SOF_mods_full.mep' loads the standard mods plus some cool extras

my favored .mats from IL-2 Mat Manager. Disable 'Hakenkruz Enabler'
mod before enabling this one.

Mosquito Flare Distance /// Increases the viewable distance of
flares dropped by the Mosquito B.Mk.XVI (can reduce FPS).

*Nuke_Effects* /// This will give you realistic nuclear bomb
effects for the B29 Silver Plate.
====THIS MOD IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH ANY |ZUTI| MDS MOD!====

Prop Texture /// Simulates the strobe effect of a propeller on
film.

Widescreen /// Use if you have problems getting true widescreen on
a widescreen display. Make sure to change your resolution within the
conf.ini file to match your screen's resolution.

*Nuke effects // Conflicts with Zuti's MDS Mod

ERROR LOADING PROFILE

loading aborted

I have this jinxx on two pc´s running xp. I run UP 2.01and I updated via update & restore, but I always get the same window!

You have to use the switcher that came with UP to change to HSFX.

Either that or do like I did and get rid of UP and use HSFX......

Hi Jinxx, thx 4 the quick reply! I did use the switcher just like it is told in the description, but only loading error dialog box pops up.
And why should I get rid of UP? Okay, loading times are slower then HSFX, but for me, it works fine.
Do u have any idea what this prob cause?

I would like to say thank you (all involved) for this mod pack again as I still use the P-38J model update part for my own loved gaming 4.09m Histo 2.01/HSFX4.11 install. (Did not share it in any mod pack or upload it.)
"My" P-38J-25 looks much better. Big Grin The model can be extracted from this pack.

Cheers
