Xenunjeon88 Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 (edited) ii. Install over a new clean copy of IL-2 1946 updated to 4.12. a. Make sure that you have all 3 parts of the hsfx 7.0 installer (10 files) in the same place on your computer. b. Point the installer at your il2 root folder and run the installer c. Open jsgme.exe and enable HSFX history mod d. Run game despite following these simple steps, it doesn't seem to work. Starting up campaigns and single missions causes the game to crash, doing quick battle crashes the game within minutes. And all the google searches are coming up with contridicting and confusing instructions. How do you install this mod and run it? (Mind its the steam version) I've also been trying to update it to 7.0.3 using the auto-updater, but it's not working and I can't figure out why. Thanks. Edited December 5, 2015 by Xenunjeon88
-TBC-AeroAce Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Im sure a better place to look will be on their forums not here
216th_Lucas_From_Hell Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 There is a "Other 1C Games" section here. I don't use mods on 1946 (partially because of the clumsiness, tried it once) so I cant help you.
Bearcat Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 I suggest you go to the 242 Squadron's website. I am not on my PC and have limited connectivity but if you Google it you should find it. HSFX is pretty nice actually.. I have three versions of IL2 on my HD with each being backed up.. HSFX, SAS w Mod Act 5.3 I think it is and of course a stock version.. 242 is the team that make HSFX so they should be able to help you with any issues.
Yogiflight Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) I managed HSFX-instalation with "SturmoWiki", search for IL2 Sturmovik 1946 Mods. There it is explaned, how you install it for an older version, but it is quite the same with the actual version. And it seems to be very important, not to install IL2 with the normal path in the "programs"-folder, because this one is protected by windows, so modding does not work, you can take for example the "games" folder.

Y-29.Silky Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 I'm having problems installing it with the Steam version (which surprised me a little noticing it already had mods installed.)
Xenunjeon88 Posted December 7, 2015 Author Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) Man, I just want to put a bullet through my skull... every post so far as regarding installing hsfx 7 is all the way back to 2013 and none of the posts describe the problem I'm having and none of the install guides mentions how to get hsfx going on steam versions of the game. Using the autoupdater fails with a window saying "Could not install, check internet connection" which means the server the autoupdater goes to is gone? Tried joining the 242 forums to post and still waiting for the mod to approve my account. wasted dozens of hours on my life for something that's probrably not going to work anyways. god... http://steamcommunity.com/app/15320/discussions/0/540732596534425857/ that is the most recent comment that I can find and as you can see, not much of a solution is present...

Brano Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Does not steam update the game into latest patch = 4.13? Is HSFX compatible with 4.13? Readme OP posted does not say so,it has 4.12 there.So there might be the rootcause of the problem.
Mikey Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 (edited) I had hsfx 7.0 installed before the latest update from il2 1946...I installed it as the directions said to for 7.0 I see in my folder there is an HSFX_Client_Updater.exe. I used that to update hsfx to the newest version and after il21946 updated. Edited December 11, 2015 by Mikey
Redsdeman Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 (edited) Hi , i have just installed this and this is what i did . Copy Il2 1946 folder from steamapps . Make a new folder on C\ drive or whatever drive you want to use . Paste to new folder Launch HSFX mod and point to new folder of Il1946 Download 7.03 update from here http://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php?board=191.0 Auto updater no longer works 7 zip 7.03 to new Il1946 folder Use jsgme in new Il1946 folder and enable the mods Make new shortcut on desktop from modded il2 1946 folder Thats it , you know if it worked because you will get HSFX 7.03 show up in the load screen Hope this helps. Edit - just noticed how old this thread is but it may help someone in the future . Edited March 27, 2016 by Redsdeman 1
352nd_Wheels Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 I suggest you go to the 242 Squadron's website. I am not on my PC and have limited connectivity but if you Google it you should find it. HSFX is pretty nice actually.. I have three versions of IL2 on my HD with each being backed up.. HSFX, SAS w Mod Act 5.3 I think it is and of course a stock version.. 242 is the team that make HSFX so they should be able to help you with any issues. 242 Squadron forums will not be online much longer. They are transitioning to FaceBook. Yes, we have decided to shut down the 242 Web site and move to Facebook as a "Facebook Group". Were paying for the web site and as far as we can tell, we get the same functionality from Facebook and it's free. I will post the exact date the Web Site will be shut down and the "Facebook Group" name as soon as I know. But it will happen very soon. Source: http://www.242sqn.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4263 Prof had said initially that they were going offline on Friday the 25th of March so their forums could disappear at any time now. Wheels
352nd_Wheels Posted May 6, 2016 Posted May 6, 2016 They have closed the 242 Squadron forums and are on Facebook exclusively now. https://www.facebook.com/groups/193656097681556/ Wheels
Chief_Mouser Posted May 6, 2016 Posted May 6, 2016 (edited) The Facebook group is a closed one just so we can chat to each other. 242 hasn't flown as a squad for a long while now, and unless Charlie suddenly has a complete re-engaging with Il-2 46 then I think that HSFX is now as far along as it's going to get. Cheers. Edited May 6, 2016 by 216th_Cat
DD_Crash Posted May 6, 2016 Posted May 6, 2016 Thank your team for all your hard work from the DangerDogz. It would have been nice to have HSFX 8 though.
Filin333 Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) Yes, HSFX team stopped. I poured pogotovleny to work NSFX 7.0.3 here https://yadi.sk/d/HH50wqAprxoyy Setting: 1. Download, select the mouse all the patches and unpack into the same folder. 2. Set up joystick control, enter the callsign and your screen resolution. Or just copy the folder to the root folder "User" and the file "Conf.ini" with its own settings from other versions of Elah. 3. All. We enjoy the flight. 4. The archive folders are added 2 - "Setting Config Elah" - "the F" and "protractor" for the bombing. 5. The current version Graphics, Sound Effects and set to the maximum.
