UHU_Fritzl65 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 S! Gents I used to be able to install several variants of IL2...I think the 352 or AAA had a way, but it appears as of those guys have gone away... Can anyone help? Thanks Fritz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverDhill Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Everything sits in one folder so just copy the entire folder and rename it. I have like 4 copies on my harddrive including a base stock version. and the last HFSX 7 one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 There are ways of having just 1 Il-2 folder and using a switcher, but I wouldnt do it that way as big hard drives are cheap.Just make sure that you keep a backup copy of 4.12 as you will need this when 4.13 comes out.

UHU_Fritzl65 Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 S! Gents thank you for the replies,. here is the issue at hand I installed the virgin IL2 1946 on a fresh machine...( should have bought a pair of SSDs) on RAID I then came back to this site, heard about the latest HSFC and the quick way to install and was given FTs CHKMDS. When I ran it, the virgin is gone, and I have the HSFX... I went to start a pilots career, so as to practice for when I am to fly with DDs...and noticed that the career/missions descriptions are all in Russian.... I tried several methods to switch this language to EN...in the .cfg replace NGen and DGen and \mission files... but either it remains in russian or if in english i am not able to start a new pilot or even continue..( I hear a beep when trying to select either one) So I came here and posted.. When I put the 1946 CD in the drive, the "Install" option is grey... Crash, I have plenty of disk space, so should I uninstall my HSFX, reboot then install virgin 1946, then copy that to another directory, and then run HSFX on the copy, and then run CHKMDS on that? Thank you for your time Fritz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted January 10, 2014 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted January 10, 2014 Copy the current installation over to a different folder. Keep this for flying online. Now, uninstall the original one (this to get the 'Install' option available again). Install it, that will leave you with 4.07m. Next, patch the 4.07m up to the latest 4.12.2m. (Lots of patches!) Then apply HSFX 7.00 and 7.01 patch. BTW, have you tried the EnjoyrPatches I linked to? That did fix the issues regarding the campaigns on my test-install....
