add to the list

Csocsos F6F-6 Hellcat

Oops - wrong credit on the Hellcat. I meant Rikens F6F-6....
Csocsos is the F6F-5N (which is also HSFX701 compatible)

I am following this thread with interest...

I have added only the new TFX Beaufighter so far, and every time I try adding other planes, it does not work. So, my quesion is : are we still limited in the quantity of planes we can add ? is it still only one, or all the planes listed here can be added ?

The four i listed I know work. It's trial and error with me ... I just keep downloading new planes and adding them and if i get a 60% ctd its a fail. I only add the mandatory air.ini fields to begin with and then if successfull i then put in the planes.ru , weapons.ru , stationary.ini and technics.ini values if there are any. Thats a time saver.

My approach as well.  Please also note that as I added more planes I commented out (adding '//' in front of air.ini entries) some of the existing HSFX 7 planes based on personal preference.  Not sure how much it helps though.

Gentleman,please copy the list into your next post and add the next planes under it,so we get an (hopefully) growing list with a better overview.
Little sidenote: I dont play Jets or WWI Planes in a WWII Sim! So I didnĀ“t  add them to my part of this list.

Cheers to all.

Edit:Many of those new Planes-not all-need the "AutoDiffFM_HSFX701_Expert-Normal_Mode" you get them on the "other modding Forum" or drop me a PN  ;)

OK, we can add all these planes... but only one at a time ! Means that if you add the TFX Beaufighter, and after you want to add the Lsander, you will have to desactivate the Beaufighters first... if not, 70 % crash...

That is because HSFX is at the limit as to how many planes can be added
This has been mentioned on the HSFX forum,by HSFX Admins

I'm afraid that as it stands, there are no free plane slots left in HSFX. We can't add any more aircraft without first removing some. We will be looking at ways around this in the future - that is, if there are any.

Commenting out air.ini strings, just removes the aircraft from the drop down list
The aircraft's class files will still be loaded by the game AFAIK

Interesting.  However I have been successful in adding more than one plane by commenting out a number of aircrafts - most of the post war jets as a matter of fact.  (I prefer another dedicated air.ini to switch to for mostly post-war crafts)

Planes I added together include: P-47N, Spitfire FR Mk XIVe, B-26B, P-39N-1 Field Mod and some of Karabas Barabas/Red_Fox 90's Yak-1 series 49+ 3D improvements.  Granted for the last one I use the series 49-99 Yaks to replace some of the Yaks currently in HSFX like the Yak-1 M-105PF and the Yak-1 like.

I too have added more than one aircraft so far,without commenting anything out actually
but yes,the game is limited in this regard and others with Java knowledge have said that the game still loads the class files
even when commenting out air.ini strings

but,it does seem to work to just load the game and have a few different aircraft additions by commenting others out
I suppose loading the class files may only add to load time of the game is all

not sure myself,just things I have read is all

Boomer,

Regarding Java limit and air.ini loading - that's what I read too.  And I believe many in this forum have run into the Java wall problem before.

Now, at the same time, I read from an (I believe it was) DBW readme that the team has managed to expand the java wall by quite a bit, at the expense of performance.  In a word we can add a lot more plane now but as more planes are added, the game will slow down significantly.  Not sure whether it is still true.  Anyway I'd love to see whether any progress had been made in this area.

Meanwhile, to get back on topic:

Heretic - your lists are good but not sure how to edit the tables within?
