I am attempting to get into making and modifying maps for Il-2 and I have a few questions. I've downloaded and installed everything I need to create and edit maps, read the tutorials, and checked out the software. My current goal is to start out by modifying some existing stock maps created by Oleg that were released with the off the shelf version of the game. In other words, I want to work on maps that have not been modded before. The only problem is I don't know where or how to find the appropriate files I need to do this. I need to get my hands on the following files:

load.ini
actors.static
map_c.tga
map_T.tga
map_h.tga
map_F.tga
ed_m01

etc...

If you have a modded game then I believe you find the appropriate files in the MapMods folder. :wink:

I currently want to do some work on the stock version of the Marianas Islands map to make it more historically accurate, but I don't know where to get these files from. Has anyone done this before and can they provide a step-by-step instruction on how to do it?
