WhiskeyWhiskey's attitude is typical of the modders, impatient for new toys.
From the beginning the official versions of IL2 have offered a lot of variety, a lot of new patches and a lot of reliability and stability.
Hacks and Mods for IL2 were always born out of hurt and impatient egos, those who's favorite aircraft and it's weapons were not good enough to make up for their shortcomings as virtual pilots, and those who's parents probably spoiled them as children with new toys every time they whined a little.
It is a fact that hacks/mods fragmented the IL2 community just as they fragmented and destroyed the Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator experience before it, and others before and since that in the gaming world in general.
It is always impatient or poor players trying to game the system instead of improving themselves instead.
The answer to "Why doesn't DT work with modders?", is that hacks and mods are simply not up to snuff, that is why there are countless threads about their hacked IL2 installations crashing and freezing. That never happens with a correctly installed official patch of IL2.
If you want to speed up the development of IL2 then quit flying mods. That way the community will get back on one page and the bored children/hackers will either do things right and do what DT wants, or they will go bother some other community.
IL2 has been around as long as it has because it still has developers approved by it's creator and they have steadily put out excellent updates and patches that adults really do appreciate.
