Hi Kilo11,

First, we are glad to see you here, and I hope you will enjoy this community and improve your IL2 ;o)

Would you please give me some more informations:

With which IL2 version are you playing ? What is the 'Concrete textures' you have downloaded (if you have a link;o) ?

I suppose it is a Mod, but I am not sure...

Waiting for your answer, and don't worry, you will get help ASAP ;o)

Have funn here and enjoy IL2 ;o)

Cheers

Guys I don't know if this will make any difference, but I also have these 4 tga files in \MODS\MAPMODS\3do\airfield\Concrete\.

Thank you Catahoulak9!

This worked, and you don't need a new folder in your MODS folder at all. Just backup/rename the files already in \MODS\MAPMODS\3do\airfield\Concrete\, then paste the new files into the same folder...and voila, it works and looks like a charm. I didn't think the game had anyway of referencing the files in a new folder, but I'd be buggered to figure out where to put the files. Thanks again!

It was on page 5 of the topic you read :wink:

So you go into your MODS folder, MAPMODS, 3DO, AIRFIELD, CONCRETE, and you just have to paste your files. Don't forget to BACK UP your files before doing anything. What i do currently, I create a new folder where I want to paste something, and I call it ORIGINAL. I copy paste here all Original files of the folder I would like to modify...


I hope thet will help you ;o)

Hi Kilo11,

You can create it into your Ubisoft/ IL2 Folder where you will see other folders like Paintscheme, Missions...
