i think that you mean that the captures that you have taken are in TGA format in your game root folder, they should be called something like this grab0001

Running on Direct X on max settings. Reasonable good game play

As far as i know i have encountered no problems with installers, mods, or game play with vista. I had the prompted account think off because its sooooo annoying.

But yes, the game is running fine and so are the mods.

Why are you running directx, the game is meant to run in openGL.

............and of course if you use DirectX you cannot play the game in 'Perfect' Mode too :wink:

Strange thing happened, after installing the Me-410, I have screenshots in IL-2 46 root folder. I'm not complaining, just strange is all. I been trying to cure this problem for several months :wink:

Simply my computer cant take it really, Its got the RAM, so loading etc is fine. By graphics card is the major issue. Its a ATI with 256Mb space at clock speed of 450hz which isnt good at all. Thus to keep my FPS around 30-40 i have it on Direct X,@ urufu_shinjiro: on Open GL the effects become too high and it decreases performance. As proberly what your gunna say is "Will you get a new card?" answer will be yes. But first i need a new case because its too damn small to fit any larger cards in.

Which ATI card by the way? That makes sense I guess. Have you tried switching to opengl and then turning down the effects in the conf.ini? Thats what I used to do when I was running an old 9550. Turn water=0, forest=0, shadows=0, effects=0, and hardwareshaders=0 and it will still look better in opengl and should run about the same, worth a try anyway.

its a X1300/X1500, A friend from America is sending me a Nvidia Gt8800. So once i get the bigger case with the PSU, i should be able to play it on open GL with max settings 8)
