VP's modpack and B.A.T. these two are the ones you will see recommended by almost everyone.

https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/board,264.0.html B.A.T.

both of these need to be installed in version 4.12.2 for il-2 1946. you can switch to this version by right clicking il-2 going to properties and then betas. if you don't have it on steam you can find the megapatch to update to this version here https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php?topic=38443.0

you will only need the mega patch if your game version is below 4.12.2m( il-2 on disk or some other site) if you own it on steam you only need to revert to 4.12.2 in the betas tab.

I am also interested in downloading both of these mods, is it recommended to install one before the other?

VP, HSFX and BAT are the main mod packs for 4.12.2m

VP focuses on WW2 and updates pretty much every aspect of the stock game and adds some objects and other misc items. VP is fantastic for playing campaigns and missions designed for default game.

BAT focuses on sheer content and has a lot of specialty campaigns based on modded A/C, so vietnam ♥♥♥♥ and korea and stuff.

HSFX is the easiest to install and was originally streamlined for Online play, however it adds content both from the prewar period and korea. I would argue that HSFX is the most stable and there is a ton of HSFX specific content out there (mission4today).

Personally, I think HSFX gives especially newer players the best rounded experience due to its easy as hell installation.

..And also remember that there are a few excellent sound files that you can use on stock 4.13.4 which will still let the version of the game be 'stock' and use features only available in 4.13.4. (Taxi to takeoff, two abreast/four abreast AI field takeoffs, etc)

VP, HSFX and BAT can be used together or is this not recommended?
