You need to set up a special folder to receive the saved files.

If your maps are in:

IL2 Sturmovik 1946/MODS/MAPMODS/maps/FabianFreds_Map

then you set up a folder:

IL2 Sturmovik 1946/Maps/FabianFreds_Map

The sub folder names must match.

When you cick on "Save" in FMB Map Editor the files are saved in the root/Maps/.... folder

Exit IL-2. -- Copy the saved files to your main map folder -- Re-start IL-2

The map changes will now be there.
