Hey all, Been trying all weekend to re-install my IL2 1946 DVD so I too could enjoy the latest patches. The problem is after installing sim and without installing any additional patches or add-on's, the game loads fine. But when in the quick mission builder, I tried to click on a aircraft to view and change skin, it will make the "clicking" sound, but not leave menu. And yes, I did have at least one aircraft checked off in the side bar of menu. Also, when I try to just go to any Single mission and fly, I get a "Mission loading failed: Landscape' FinsGulf/load.ini' loading error" popup. It will do it no matter what country or map is being loaded. I tried using Revo uninstaller, but still not working. Last week, this sim was working just fine with all add-ons. Yes, I know, I should have backed it up. But harddrive space is limited. Please, can someone give me any suggestions on what to do? Thanks to all, Joe, (aka, the "Taint")

S!

Make sure to delete the old IL-2 folder before installing it again. It seems uninstaller does not remove everything, especially if a modded game. That caused me some WTF moments, but after that no probs. If you have an unmodded IL-2 with 4.09m then you should use the SAS ModAct for CLEAN install. Works like a charm for me.
