Excellent new ver 2.0 looking forward to flying this amazing chopper. One question, how would I install it using Modern Mod Manager and not use the included installer.exe.

from the instructions:

 

"I have uploaded a backup archive of the mod to the same location. Simply extract it to your Saved Games/DCS folder."

Why made a downloader/installer ? :suspect: ( advantages / disadvantages ??? )
Why this is not an usual unzip/unrar, drag&drop into SavedGames-DCS-Mods-Aircrafts-module-folder ?

 

because there is people that still places user mods within the DCS folder itself?

Because not a single day goes by when I don't get messaged on Discord by someone who can't read basic instructions and they fail to install it properly. It's really annoying and the installer ensures it is put in the correct location.

It also places the script for the door gunners in the correct location too.

Lastly, it checks and shows you the update changelog so you can just run the installer and know if there is a new version and update. And I can just keep uploading regular small fixes when I can, without having to publish and announce lots of new versions.

I think it is much simpler for everyone involved. I know it maybe conflicts with people who use mod managers, but I think on the whole that is a minority of players and the benefits are worth it.

Agreed. In general, dedicated installers are a great improvement for accessibility and uptake whilst reducing dev support workload. Good call!
