Soundmod and IL-2 Mat Manager
#1

With the original version 4.08 I had installed the original il-2 mat manager and everything worked fine...had weathered insignia, Swastikas, etc. Anyway, after loading the Zero sight mod, I had to scrap it because it didn't work with the 6DOF mod.

I reinstalled Il-2, got the new mat manager (1 DL instead of the previous 5 DL's), got the latest soundmod and the latest 6dof. Now, I can't get mat manager to work at all. I have weathered planes with bright new insignia and no swastikas.

Part of the problem may lie in the fact that one thing that must be done is to make the cache and netcache folders not 'read-only'. However, once I make them not 'read-only', and I go back to them, they are still 'read-only'.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem. I'd be very grateful.

Thanks in advance.

Could it be that you just have to do all 5 DL's?
I went looking on the nat for a MAT-all-in-1-Package, but there is none...

Not true. Look here for Mat Manager 2.36 self installer: http://mission4today.com/index.php?name=...ile=search

The reverting to 'read only' problem is well-known and was discussed here not long ago. I've never had it myself but one remedy is to create a new folder in the same directory as the cache folder, make sure it is not read only, transfer the cache files over from the original and finally delete the old folder. Sometimes this fools XP into accepting writes to the new one.
