I'm still struggling to see the ships...
On a relatively fresh install (UI), no shippack 1, I installed this....
Initially, I had none of the required ini's in the STD folder...
I put these ones in there, also had to update (using Winmerge) my stationary.ini in my MODS/Static_AC folder.
After continuous 70% CTD's, it finally loads the game now, and my STD folder now contains the following ini's: air/static/stationary/ships/technics/................game loads - no ships :!:
My MODS/Static_AC folder contains these ini's: stationary/technics..
The 2 stationary/ technics files are EXACT duplicates of each other (Winmerged)...should I be deleting one of them? :?:
Remember, at this point, the game actually loads, but no ships are visible/available ingame..
the only ini I still need in my STD folder is chief.ini......but putting this in, gives me a 70% CTD..?!?!
I've checked, there is no other chief.ini in my entire IL2 folder... :?:
Oh, I also renamed my technics.properties to technics_ru.properties.
Just checked, and in FMB I have an additional group type : Stationary Ship Pack...so, my static ships are available, but no 'usables' in the Ships type.....this is obviously because of chief.ini, but if I put it in the folder..........70% CTD ........
So, my problem seems to be with chief.ini :?:

I don't have the Tank Pack installed, would that be an issue?? (just a random thought) :?

Many thanks for your good work!!!
