I am seldom correct when trying to do something on my own, without guidance from you guys, who know a heck of a lot more than I do.
Thank you for any help.
can you extract a zip file into your game folder? thats the install process....
I hope you didn't think I was saying you weren't smart for not giving a readme. Far from it. It's me that isn't very smart for not being able to figure out what to do with mods generally. But I gotta ask - the file isn't a zip file, but an rar one, at least mine is. Do I just take the two files provided, once extracted, and merely put them into my game's main folder? That sounds way to simple. Got to remember, I'm old (67) and really not very smart, so I need all the help I can get.
Thanks, and I apologize if it sounded like I was being sarcastic or something. :oops:
My apologies! I didnt meant to be unpolite...but the install process is that you need to extract the rar (youre right not zip, because rar makes smaller archives) into your game folder which is by default: C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\
This will create a MODS folder if isnt already there (with HSFX for example) with two subfolders inside. The rest happens automatic and its really that simple. The only way to mess up the process is to extract the rar to the wrong location. Please feel free to ask any further questions, I'm happy to help.
