Thanks everyone but the download doesn't have a readme file - all it has is a file named RAR.- I've done a new download thinking the first was corrupted but it's no different.
I can't find a MODS folder - do I have to make one?
I've been using the MS sims for some time but I'm finding that the UBI ones are a totally different ball game!

True in more ways than you think.

If you are new to RAR files, get 7zip. It's a tiny utility that will extract your compressed files, including ZIP, RAR, LHA, Window's CAB and LHA files. It's freeware, so you're not nagged about buying and it's not bloated with too many features that you'll never use anyway.

For you to have a mods folder, you would need to have downloaded and installed the UI1.1 onto a (prefferably fresh) IL2:1946 install that was patched to 4.08m. Seeing as you are probably new to the unlocking of IL2, this would be the easiest route. You then also need to patch UI1.1 with the UI 1.1.1 patch. You can get both UI1.1 and UI Patch 1.1.1 here. Important: Make a backup of IL2:1946 before installing UI1.1 by copying it to a location of your choice.

After installing UI1.1 and patch 1.1.1, you can look over this thread again to go through the steps mentioned. Probably smart to make a copy of "1946 with UI 1.1.1" before installing mods.

GL and welcome to the forum.
