Why is this so hard!

Ever since I first played IL-2 1946, i have wanted a flyable TBF/TBD Avenger and a flyable B-17.

I have searched for months and no success. UP, HSFX, and DBW are out of the question.

Do these planes exist? And where can i find them?

My previous offer regarding those mods still stands. If you don't want me to have home address use a proxy, a mate, relative, school, work, local shop . . .

Pity really, because with just ten minutes in the Quick Mission editor using HSFX, I knocked this up:

Can i download HSFX in parts?

If i could do that...maybe...I haven't actually tried to download HSFX, UP3 or DBW. I know i won't do UP or DBW. That is too much.


HSFX 6 is only 4.6 GB...

It also includes the two planes I really want plus some more. I love that it includes the B-24 and 29. I want this mod. If i can get links to the download in parts, I should be good. It'll take me a week....but it looks worth it. I downloaded MW4 Mercenaries in 3 days. That was around 2 gb IIRC.

Just DL it man, let it take however long it needs. Get DCG too while your at it (If our comp can handle 200+ planes in one mission but you can tone it down if need be) Its a upgrade thats well worth it.

I am downloading HSFX6 Part 1 now. I found a link that lets you download in parts. Please explain what DCG is. I've been out of the loop on this for a few months.

EDIT: Oh...DCG! Gee, I'm stupid. Okay. Maybe. HSFX might be just what i'm looking for. I'M DONE PRETENDING WITH THE PE-8! I'M DONE USING THE G4M AS A TORPEDO BOMBER! Haha.

HSFX is amazing once you get to play with it, I find it tough to not get shot down since Im a crap pilot though :P

I wish I could find my IL 2 Copy to install it on my new computer Been itching for some dog fighting.

I've had HSFX for a while now. It was EXACTLY what I was looking for. DCG is just the icing on the cake. I love it.

It was worth waiting a week for the download.
