HSFX and SEOW New Developments
There is a new version of HSFX 5.01 that has been released recently and this will be the standard for most SEOW campaigns.
HSFX 5.01 a mod version of IL2 1946 which is designed specifically for SEOW campaigns. The SEOW developer is IV/JG7_4Shades and he is currently working on a new release
of SEOW SEDCS v 3.3.0, SEDB33A and MP4 v4.75x for all of us to enjoy. The new system will be compliant with IL2 TD 4.101 and with HSFX 5.01. For those of you interested
in what the new SEOW will contain here is a link
seowhq.net/seowforum/viewtopic.php?p=4586&highlight=#4586HSFX 5.01 has many new features including drivable vehicles, new airplanes, entrenched infantry, mortar teams, and new ground vehicles and tanks.
This is what we will be using in our future campaigns. So I would encourage all registered pilots and future SEOW campaign pilots to install this IL2 game version
on your hard drive. HSFX 5.01 will be the standard for SEOW and is supported by SEOW and HSFX. Since many of us were new to SEOW prior to this campaign we used the version that most pilots had in the Hyperlobby
which was the Ultrapack. Now that HSFX 5.01 is final and has been released it is our hope that you will have enjoyed our SEOW experience and want to fly more SEOW campaigns,
which is most compatible with HSFX 5.01. No more tanks firing at planes like they do in UP, and the ground movement and flight models on expert mode is a nice addition. Wait till you drive a kublewagon or jeep for recon or forward air controller missions!
Below is the link to the 242 squadron website for installation and download links. This version installs over a version of IL2 patched to version 4.101. In
the JG26 forum we have a link to the website and a brief tutorial on the installation process (see thread Flight requirements for JG26).

Once we have all pilots with the the latest version of HSFX 5.01 we will run a few tests then hopefully transition to using HSFX 5.01 for duration of the Fall Gelb campaign. The future SEOW campaigns will use HSFX 5.01 and the new SEOW when released.
The admin team will be working on transition and migration of the database so to make the transition as easy and seamless as possible for all participants. We are fortunate to have some members of the development team both of SEOW and HSFX that are participating in the Fall Gelb campaign or are visitors to our forum. So I want to personally thank both IV/JG7_4Shades, II/JG77Hawk_5,
PA_Dore, 242nd_Chap, and others for their contributions to the IL2 community.
Enjoy
