Basically just like the tital says. I started from scratch on this one...
1. fresh install the game via dvd (not downloaded)
2. patched to 4.08
3. patched to 4.09
4. downloaded UP 2.01 from http://ultrapack.il2war.com/index.php?topic=1536.0 I downloaded from mirror 3 on the first bunch on that page, so its not a torrent (i don't have any torrent programs)
5. I ended up with the client .exe, data2.cab,data3.cab all in my downloads file.
6. Ran the client, made sure it was going to the right location of where the game was (Program Files (x86)/Ubisoft/il2 ect ect.). Straight away, it unpacked about 8 different files into the downloads file. things like a bunch of files that read "setup", one that says "engine 32" ect.
7. It looked like it was Installing ok, and it finished without any problems, trouble is when i play it, its still stuck on 4.09 with no extras.
8. I ran the updater/restore thing where it just sat there and downloaded about 4 gigs of my bandwidth before i gave up. there were about 20 files of fb_hfx3do01, 02, 03 ect. all being placed into the game's directory as it downloaded. shouldn't have all that been installed when i ran the client?
Does anyone have any suggestions? thanks for your time.
