Blairgowrie Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I had to reromat and then my DVD for 1l2 wouldn't load. So I found a site called direct drive and found 1l2 sturmovick for $6.00 . 4.07 installed ok but when Itried to patch it up, it wouldn't So I thought I could just delete my insatll and reinstall since it was sitting in Downloadsds Wrong! It seemed to install ok but the exe was missing. No problem I thought. I'll just buy another download. Now I can't find it listed on their website. Anyone know what is going on? Not my best day on computers. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted May 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I contacted their website and they tell me once I buy it , I can download it as many times as I want. Download is now underway at 1.3mb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snacko Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Is it IL2 FB?? or just IL2 Sturmovik? Anyway, my experience with downloading games is mainly with Steam. And they do something to the game's install format and it installs in the Steam folder buried in some sub folder. I don't know how CloD works, but the 3 other games I have from Steam are like this and you have to get the updates from Steam. You can't just download an update and install it like a normal game because it is installed in the Steam folder and is setup differently.

They let me download it again but there is no exe to launch it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a look If you have a Direct 2 Drive (downloaded) version of IL-2 you will need to install the SAS D2D Patch.
