Hi Jerm, nice name you got there 
Like the other replies says, the Unified installer 1.1 is you best bet. (The link is inoperative)
Take the time to read the instructions, or better still copy and paste into a document then print it out. Follow the instructions although there is one comment that will make no sense to you, Line 2 reads as follows.
2. If you have IL-2 installed, Copy your current IL-2 1946 game folder and rename the new folder. Next, Delete the FILES and MODS folders.
I think it should read,
If you have IL-2 installed, Copy your current IL-2 1946 game folder and rename the new folder. Next, if you have a previously modded IL2 installed Delete the FILES and MODS folders.
If yours is a fresh install and you have not done any mods, than you will not have these two folders, so don't wreck your brain looking for them
Get the 1.1.1 update patch too, apply that and then you are almost ready to run. (The link is inoperative)
You need to know about folders with the - (dash) in front of them. This effectively prevents that folder from running, so some items are already thus marked and you need to decide which you want to run.
Be patient use the "Search" function up the top of this page if you have issues, there is usually an answer out there
hock: and if you cannot find an answer ask the questions in the "IL2 Technical Support", or "Spray and Pray" topics.
I have only been in here for a bit over a week and found all the above to be the best way. Help is always there but so many people ask the same question over and over, I even tired of reading them. If only they did the same, it would make life easy for the really knowledgeable ones in here.
