Not much.
1.05 is a package put together by Qualakon; he likes to keep a full package available containing all of the loose features that have recently emerged for Hellfire, currently including Marsh's Mod and the latest version of v1.02.Ax that I've released. So these versions are identical with the exception of other things he may include in each release.
Unfortunately, there's no structure to the version numbers. Here are the version numbers in use by the latest editions of the 'better Hellfire' packages available right now:
v1.21: Hellfire Fixed (the project that started the fix craze years ago)
v1.02: Marsh's Mod (similar to HF: Fixed and incorporates some features)
v1.02.A3 (my extension of Marsh's mod - soon to be A4)
v1.03: Slayer's Mod (an extension of Marsh's mod)
v1.05: Qualakon's Bundle (Marsh's Mod + my mod + other stuff)
Until recently, only HF: Fixed and Marsh's Mod were available to choose from. I think they both did a good job overall but there were a few things left I had issue with, both with the game and each mod itself, so I created my extension to Marsh's mod to continue providing more fixes and improvements.
Shortly after the first release of my patch/mod whatever you'd like to call it, Slayer released his v1.03 Alpha and Qualakon begin pulling together various updates into a single cohesive package.
Hope that clarifies any confusion for you. Probably more than you wanted to know.
