I'm not sure were to put this honestly, but people have been asking and I thought to make a step-by-step guide... So I'm sorry if this is wrong section. Maybe this should be a sticky until the fix comes out?
To make the Mosquito temporarily compatible with the Ta-183 EZ42 gunsight, you must do the following:
If you already have them both installed and incompatible:
1) Download the Askania EZ42 mod for Ta-183
2) Install this mod into an NEW, empty folder, so this way you can see the mod's individual files.
3) Inside this new new folder, get into the files folder and you will see 111 different files (minus the 3DO and i18n folders) that are also currently located in your files folder inside your IL-2 Sturmovik 1946>Files.
4) In your IL-2 Sturmovik 1946>Files folder find these exact same 111 files that you see in your new folder and delete them.
NOTE: I understand trying to match and delete 111 files is very time consuming and impossibly frustrating. What I recommend (if this works on your computer) is that you copy the 111 files from the new folder and paste them back into IL-2 Sturmovik 1946>Files folder, and replace. Now all the 111 files are highlighted for you, all you have to do now is just hit delete.
5) Now go into your MODS folder in your IL-2 and create a new folder. Name it anything you want but make sure it will appear first alphabetically in the MODS folder.
6) Inside your new folder copy those 111 files PLUS the 3DO and i18n folder and put them into the new folder that you created in your MODS folder in IL-2
DONE! Enjoy
If you have the Mossie but do NOT have the EZ42 mod:
1) Download the Askania EZ42 mod for Ta-183
2) Install this mod into an NEW, empty folder, so this way you can see the mod's individual files.
3) First thing you will see in your new folder is a files folder, Filelist-Fixer, and flc.
4) Copy the Filelist-Fixer and the flc files and paste them into the root of your IL-2 Sturmovik 1946
5) Now go into your MODS folder in your IL-2 and create a new folder. Name it anything you want but make sure it will appear first alphabetically in the MODS folder.
6) Inside your new folder go into the files folder. In there there are 111 files plus the 3DO folder and i18n folder. COPY all of those files PLUS the 2 folders and put them into your newly created folder in your MODS folder in your IL-2.
DONE! enjoy
IMPORTANT: Make sure that this works before deleting the new folder with the EZ42 files. If it DOES work, then you can delete then new folder you had with the EZ42 stuff. If not... lets see where you went wrong.
