I got my game to patch all the way up using 4.09m and UI 1.2 using the following method:
1. Clean install of IL-2 patched to 4.08m
2. Install UI 1.1 (required before UI 1.2 per instructions)
3. Install UI 1.2 with patch
4. Install 4.09m patch.
5. Install the 4.09m skin pack.
6. Install SASMODACTv2.1_for_Premodded and make the changes to the files he listed in his "readme". This is really easy if you have never done it because he lists all the files necessay and their addons.
7. Added the SAS_Buttons_v2.3 per the instructions (UI 1.2 compliant) and renamed the original UI 1.2 buttons file to prevent crashes.
8. Finally used the SAS presets sound file as a base (to ensure all the new planes have engine sounds) and then installed the UI 1.2 presets sounds file on top of the SAS presets sounds file.
Absolutely nothing difficult, just time consuming if you follow all the instructions that are in the SAS mod folder's readme files. And a small side point, I did not get into IL-2 until two weeks ago (a real IL-2 noob), so if I can do it, you can too.
If you really want to get slick and be able to switch between stock 4.09m , 40.9m + UI 1.2 or 4.09m + UI 1.2 + 6D TIR, you just have to add the correct files to the UI 1.2 mod switcher folders.
