I got that before the site went down. If you can't find that .ini, then don't worry about it.
Just get their latest buttons...2.3 I think, but 2.2 will work if you have it.

Odd I don't have a chief.ini in this install tho I do have it in a previous Modded version...I wonder where it comes from ...or should I just copy my old one into this virgin install?
Found everything else...

Finally got everything working in one install-due to some really good advice ( thanks everyone!) First I deleted or saved everything in CTonguerogam Files?Ubisoft?1l2...both by automatic uninstall & went back & cleared it manually...Nothing there...definately!
1.) Installed original game
2.) installed 4.08 patch
3.)InstalledAAAUI 1.1
4.)Installed AAAUI 1.2 with patch from Torrent download( tried at least 3 times from File front & always got corrupted message...but Torrent worked!)Go to Mod folder & delete & change folders as per instructions at 1.2 post.
5.)Installed 4.09m & 4.09 skin pack...did so manually although I don't know if this made any differnce..
6.)Very carefully installed SASActv2.1for previously modded versions-& followed all instructions in readme for changing texts...still trying to find "Chief.ini." but oh well...
7.)Installed new button2.3& SAS Presets.

Let me add these instructions were given to me, but I screwed up several times by not doing a complete uninstall.In the pastr week I musta had 4 different modded versions saved at one tome juggling things between all of them & "infecting them" with some of the same things each & everytime & screwed around.Before the AAAUI1.2 I had one working but very overloaded up to date SAS version ...it wasn't very clean & some things didn't work but it was passable...so why go to all the trouble & time of struggling to get this right?Well to get a more or less clean version ( My objects folders have never been right& I've never got Ships2 to instll without a CTD;plus getting my maps right is an on going quest...))that had the new 1.2 & planes from 4.09.I don't really plan to fly any of the new a/c except maybe the SM 79 that i have waited for for quite a while,but who knows maybe they'll show up in a Med Campaign or mission & I'll need to have one or two of these planes.So I just kept trying & finally got everything to work ( well not too sure about the 109s & sounds cause I haven't tried everything yet...)Ironically I bit the bullet to get opening cockpits on the 109s but find that some open others don't & none show open cockpit on exterior view...and I've lost miror on 109E...Damn!
Now comes the really boring part of reloading ALL the other modded a/c from here & SAS , not to mention the maps...etc.Effects are easier as they just get placed in Mod Folder ,but I will be much more carefull doing this as I've found they can easily come in conflict with one another..( I promise to be careful!Honest!)
So ...my advice: Be careful go in order as above ...save copies that work& check things at each stage...above all follow instructions in readme! As many know who inhabit these sites I am PC Impaired ,but I got it all to work...more or less
And thanks to all the modderswho do all this "above & beyond the call of duty!!!"

I got it running quickly, but had lots of random crashes depending on the mission. Best way seems to be to do a base install through 4.09m, add the SAS mod activator and buttons file then manually add the objects, maps and ac you want from UI 1.1 and 1.2. Rest of the mods (cockpits, misc stuff) you can just copy straight over. Anyway, after a lot of mucking about, this seems to be the fastest fool proof way to get it going and work the first time...
