Works painless and easy. Love the new alternative exe selection option.
Good thing to have a base for both SAS mods and UP mods now.
LMAO about the "mother" implications..

 
Thanks!

you guys must not INSTALL il2 in another place. you must COPY your whole IL2 game folder to elsewhere, then UNINSTALL the one in programfiles. Re-installing elsewhere with the disk just adds back all the spyware and malware from UBI into your registry that you want to get rid of, although having it outside program files does help a bit in from the windows side of things.

by copying it you also should not loose your custom settings.

when i tried to move the game from program files i kept getting crashes at %5, the only way i can seem to get any modact to work is by just having a dedicated il-2 folder and installing into that directory. I am sure you are right, but i am not great with computers i just know enough to get by..

With a little playing I have added the cockpits for a few older planes.
The R-10, Swordfish and a few more. It took a little while but they all work fine.

NOT a programmer so for me this was a big feat.
Thank You all at SaS. Job well done.

So Ive got 3.2 running great, now can I install HSFX 5.0 into the same directory, delete the files specified int he readme, and have HSFX with it?

I just installed HSFX 5.0 over my modact 3.01 installation(per readme) and here is what happened..it works! All i had to do was open JSgme and enable it. Once I did that HSFX is what loaded when i used the .exe included with the modact. When disabled the new modact window opened up with options to load different games. Note: HSFX is not one of the options! I am sure i did something wrong, mods from the modact 3.0 are missing in jsgme but i am pretty happy with setup i got on this computer(very limited hard drive space). On my main gaming rig I will not install Hsfx and wait for up3.0. but the short answer is HSFX is working on top of the upgrade.

I hope this helps with your question.

Instructions read and followed, works great. 

Cheers,

PS when it 1st loaded it stopped at 95%, worked out it was trying a to load at a different resolution to my desktop, that's what caused it to stop.
copied my conf.ini file across an all was well.

Just installed, everything fine. This is truly brilliant! I can play all my three versions of IL2 by clicking on the selector. Everything appears to be in place, I just tried a saved mission. Again, congratulations to Cirx, Hades, Storebror, and everyone else from the SAS and UP teams involved!

Ok wierd stuff seems to have up and stopped, but selecting 6DOF in the game start menue will give me a 95% freeze.
Stock game, SAS 3.1, and HSFX 5 start and run fine as long as 6 dof isnt checked before start up in settings.
Only 6DOF mods are in JSGME; #SAS_6DOF NormalMouse by PAL, #SAS_6DOF XYMouse by PAL, #SAS_6dofTrackIR_ClassFiles.

Ok it starts now that i have my main folder out of program files. Thank you very much !

to use the 6dof TRACK IR option in the selector, you must obvious have TRACK IR, and, you must also enable the #SAS_6dofTrackIR_ClassFiles in jsgme.

the TRACK IR option in the selection does not have anything to do with the normal mouse 6dof mods that most of us use, only with TRACK IR 6dof.

I will update the guide for 3.02

[SAS~CirX]

but having said that, enabling it wont cause a 95% crash, that happens when you try launching the international version with a russian exe.

I dont know what is going on in your install, but it cannot be good!

To test, I have an install here with SAS Modact 3.0 and HSFX 5 in. I just copied the selector into there alone (just the il2fb.exe) and enabled the "TrackIR 6dof" (even though I dont have trackIR), and started up HSFX5, stock and Modact 3.0 with the selctor with no hassles.

...I dont know what is going on in your install, but it cannot be good! ...

Well it seems the problem was sitting in an office chair with a mouse in hand.
I forgot to enable 6 DOF for either ???, then I rememberd to do so and enabled the new 6DOF classfiles. SAS 3.1 worked fine but couldnt figure out why HSFX 5.1 wouldnt until I remembered there were now two mods folders, Mods and SAS. So I enabled the standard 6 DOF (sans .exe of course) and all is well.
So, Ummm, never mind...
