Yes, if not, Il2 will not see the new files.

Hi all,

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or not. A while back I tried to d/l and install the Italy map, and now I've just tried to install this map, and after I run the installer - nothing happens. It goes through the installation, and I think everything is ok, but when I start the game there are no new maps in my FMB (all other maps seem to work fine). I've read the install instructions on this forum, installed the new wrapper, read and followed the instructions to load the map, but no joy. As I look at my files in the game directory I see that I do not have any of these folders and files you all are talking about above (MODS/MAPMODS, FILES/MAPS, all.ini). Are these things that I have to create? Any help here is appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I'm running 4.09. Not sure if that is pertinent to the problem or not.

Ok, lets start with basic stuff....

1. have you installed sound mod or mod activator?
2. are you using modable version of 4.09 ( it should be 4.09b1m)?
3. have you force mod installer to extract in to your game root folder ?

thanks,

Z

Yes, I have the sound mod, and yes, I am running 4.09b1m. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "force mod installer" though.

well , installer extract files to default game directory :

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\

if you have game installed in any other directory you need to change destination folder ( installer) by clicking on "Browse" button at first screen and browse to your game directory .... then click install ...


cheers,

Damn! Can I be really dumb sometimes. :roll: That's what it was, I was installing to the wrong drive. I just recently moved my game folder to my D: drive and I forgot to change the path when I installed. I just reinstalled to the right path and everything seems to be working fine. Thanks Fly_zo for the help (great sig by the way), and thanks to Maraz for the great map. I'm off to take it for a spin.

Greetings,

I wanted to let the Comunity and the Artist of this GREAT MAP know that there is a small Unofficial DCG Team working on a DCG Grandcampaign for the Medium Malta Map.

The DCG would be broken up into several templates to reflect various stages of the Siege of Malta, and would progress you from stage to stage based on several Dynamic triggers.

Cheers!
AND Thanks for the Amazing Map!!!

Any Chance that someone with the know how, and map tools could add a Runway at Hal Far? Not a visable one, but the Taxi wp's and Runway Icon on the map. The Airfield is already built, it just doenst have a Runway icon.

In building this DCG we are trying to keep it as historical as possible...

The Gladiators that went up agains the I-tie's during the Faith, Hope, and Charity days all flew from Hal Far.

We've set an Invisable Runway in, but you know how those are, no taxi and you better stay on the runway! :roll:

All respect and credit to the Artist, I would have simply Mailed them, but I figured it would be a Quick Fix to the Static.Actors list, and I figured someone in the community might be able to whip that together in a few minutes or something.

Cheers!

ok, I'll look into it, but I need Hal Far runway too

btw sooner or later we should all switch to DCG since there's no dgen support for even the official maps

Hal far done.......look at post in map mods WIP section

Thank you for your message. Sorry for not replying before, but I was on vacation and could not read the forum.

Of course it's possible to add the Hal Far airfield. I did not add it at first because I was worried that the map could be too cluttered in the FMB. But as you say it is very important for your campaign, I can add it. I'll release soon a further version of the map including this airfield as well as correction of some small bugs identified by JuVe.

Cheers
