Trying to help someone get up to speed in IL2/HSFX. He installed the HSFX package, which took him to v7.0. The auto-upater should take him to v7.0.3, but it doesn't work anymore. (Says "Check internet connection or try later.")

Some other way to get HSFX to v7.0.3?

Yup. Been there. Says "must use HSFX Auto Updater."

VFA-41 BLACK ACES HSFX UPDATER FIX

HSFX 7.0 to HSFX 7.0.3

Manually update to HSFX v7.0.3 because the Auto Updater doesn't work anymore.

Instructions:

1. Deactivate ALL mods enabled in JSGME!

2. Download this file , and UNZIP IT INTO THE MAIN IL2 FOLDER (where the IL2fb.exe file is). Allow it to overwrite all files.

3. Re-activate HSFX History Mod and Expert Mode.

4. Start the sim. Ensure the splash screen says V 4.12.2m HSFXv7.0.3 expert.

You should be good to go!

I been having issues since updating to 4.13 as well seems like such a pain when no one is flying anymore. When is UP and HSFX just going to put everything in one pack already so people can fly one game without dozens of mods which killed this game.

HSFX doesn't work with 4.13, at least not yet. the VFA-41 fly online every Sunday night around 9-10pm EST give or take which occurs after our Jane's F-18 squadron mission. Currently we are flying the IL-2 Pacific campaign missions. We ONLY use HSFX.

Personally I have HSFX and UP installed and will jump on servers with AI enemy since there are still servers that support that, but it is dwindling. I don't think you will get an online all in one IL-2 mod between HSFX and UP since both are running off of different base versions of the IL-2 game. For an all in one mod there is CUPS, but it's too complex and breaks too often for online play- that's why they say it's for offline play only.
