Thanks Dixie. Our squad is Airgroup 51

http://www.airgroup51.com/

We as a squad just got 4.09b installed. We always had the mods. What I did was a clean install then installed all the mods we like as a squad. Then I burned two DVDS with the clean install. Also I added the switcher so all you have to do is drag the two files to get any version you want.


Here is the readme

Welcome to Stanger's Funhouse. This is IL2 full 4.09bm modded version.

Just copy over to anyplace you want not over your existing install. On DVD two are the game skins and squad skins I downloaded from our site.
Copy your config file,rcu file in root directory from your original install. Also copy your USER directory in game. All theese files have your settings so you do not have to do a thing.

All the mods I installed in game are in this list.

Mods
4.09b
Sound mod 9.02-sounds
Wrapper
AAAmodpack 2.7- Planes
VPdefaultmapmods-Improved some textures on maps for better fps.
ACinstaller2.3
English career fix
Net campaign fix
slotversion1.1
Shippack2
F6f mirror mod
p-51d mirror mod
slipery mods
Flushys cloud mod
Carrier Take off mod.
Windconfig Mod

You can add more mods as you wish.

I have changed the ingame screen splashshots and menu music. Humor me and turn on music in game and at least listen once thru the menus.
Music is Victory AT SEA, Baa Baa Blacksheep and Mchales Navy.

Anymore mods that you install be careful and look to see if it changes the il2.exe file or the file.sfs. If it does your default files for switching mod versions will be compromise. I can talk you thru that.

In game I added a dir called Switcher where this readme file is. You have four versions to switch from. Just copy from the version you want into the games root directory and replace.

4.08
4.08 mod
4.09b
4.09b mod
This way if you screw something up just pull out my DVD's and copy installation over off of DVD's and you are up and running.

Now as a squad I made it easy for all to get up to speed. Our home is the carrier SanJac. With ship mod 2.0 we got our home and many thanks to Archie and FC. So we are intersted in the slot. Even though historical SANJAC did not see the slot. We are still making missions. We are carrier base and you do not see much carrier operations campaigns.

We still love the hard work like you putting out campaigns like yours. We love to fly anything in the Pacific.

I just introduce the Idea to our squad about doing a historical campaign with the SANJAC.

In the meantime one squad mate is doing a early slot campaign so I thought your templates would help a lot in his effort.

Also we are meeting in Oregon for a Tailhook lan party. Once a year we get together for a few days and have a lan party. This is next week.

Thanks
