Hi DESPEREAUX just wondered why most of the effects are remmed out? Are these up and coming later?

Hi Mak. I can't understand your question)) Translator .. Could you rephrase, if not difficult.

DESPEREAUX,
What the phrase "remmed out" means is 'remarked out'. That's a term used in programming. If the coder wants to disable a line of code, or add some remarks for himself and other coders to understand the reasoning behind certain code, he creates a "REM", or remark, typically preceded by certain characters used for the purpose, depending on the programming language.

In our case with IL-2, within all files (.eff, .mesh, .ini, etc.), a line is remmed out when preceded by either ";" or "//". For file names, a preceding "-" effectively 'rems it out', making the game code overlook it (hopefully to find another version elsewhere, such as in a SFS archive)

In the latest folder of effects, most were 'remmed out' due to having preceding "-" characters.

Got it Thanks for the clarification WxTech.
I just collected the files of a certain group into one mini-mod, so that anyone who wants to can use it to create their own mod.
I myself was not going to use all of them.
In addition, I did not know exactly what was responsible for what, and opened them for myself one at a time (removing the minus sign in the file name).
