If the left side were the correct side, yes, it would be the right side.... And then, I'd have no problem, I could indeed drive on the right side. Therefore, as I suppose I have to drive on the left side, it is the wrong side.

My boat arrives in Harwich friday at 08:00AM... then I'll have to drive 80km's on the wrong side of the road... I should be there in the afternoon I guess....

Retried, still the same... But I wasn't specific in my earlier post: Shadows of smoke and explosions are the only ones affected, not the ones of aircraft, buildings or vehicles...

Hmmm... them DLL's... indeed, I'm using the ones dated 13th of March 2008.... always thought those were the best... Okay, will retry using those.

Happy Birthday !!

Tried your settings Fruitbat, Performance was good, looked good, but my GTX260 showed them nasty pixel-by-pixel blocky thingy black-dotted-shadows-in-the-snow-stuff.... so went back to what I used to have in Conf.ini Haven't looked into what flag is responsible for it though.. Oh well!

Here's a link to the full 2.0n Patch, it's a Torrent, so you will be needing a torrent client to download it : Up 2.0n torrent It's 3.5GB so it should have the complete 2.0 pack in it... Should that not work, you could use Checkmods, but that will take a very long time to finish, maybe 8 hours or so, and the result will be 2.0, not 2.0n.(Checkmods 1.34 is in the Vault, download it, install it, point it to the IL2 folder you want updated to UP2.0, press 'Bring to DD's standard' sit back and wait and wait and wait some more...) Good Luck!

Mute the Microphone on the Windows Control Panel Sound Device's volume playback settings?

Check whether the in-game communication option is switched off.

Here's the part relevant for the wide screen resolution, copy and paste it in your conf.ini, replacing the current settings. [window] width=1680 height=1050 ColourBits=32 DepthBits=24 StencilBits=8 ChangeScreenRes=1 FullScreen=1 DrawIfNotFocused=0 EnableResize=1 EnableClose=0 SaveAspect=0 Use3Renders=0 Sorry, can't think of a utility that does and behaves like you describe... or ... maybe IL2 Manager ?

Brilliant stuff Fruitbat, it'sindeed what I was looking for! Thanks Fruitbat!

For a small project I'm in need of all the 'Default' in game skins, in the usual 1024x1024 bitmap format. Does anybody know where to find them? Or how to successfully extract them? (I can open up and extract files from fd_3do20.SFS, but this results (per plane type) into some 1Mb large .tga type files, and one 4Mb .tgb file, with which I cannot do anything..... can't open them, they are not being recognized as valid image files... Using PaintshopPro 7, IrFanView, etc.)

I like the clean cut one, Question, When I hit Reply it always wants to Quote. an adjustment possibly? Just hit ' Add Reply' button, which is a bit lower on the page ...

BG, Me thinks this is the purplelizer: Under [Render_OpenGL], the TexLarge=0 Change it to TexLarge=1.

They do appear to be identical... Upload / select error maybe?

Send 'm both over here, I'll make a study of it... and try and think of the most probable ones...

Bet it's somewhere in the [Render_OpenGL] section... Cool... (I just finished tuning the Taranto mission a bit, will send it to you in a minute.)

You mean it doesn't? Jabo No, it does not. Currently, it only checks a limited set of files, ones that are relevant for the mods. But, I might just as well put everything in there. You then could use CheckMods to create an entire installation in an empty folder. (You'd have to be kinda patient though for it to finish) Although, wouldn't that be kinda illegal? And, it'd also mean that some of your custom skins and other custom stuff might go missing... and get replaced. I'll study it a bit more though, it may make some sense in the end...

Wow. Maybe I should expand CheckMods, so it checks the entire installation, and not just the mod part? Good thing you got it solved BG!

There's no need to delete any files before running CheckMods If any files got messed up, CheckMods will see them, and replace them... with fresh and good copies ones... (Well, 'good' ... just as good as they were when I put them there...) Maybe a skin-issue? (I dunno, just thinkin' out loud, it couldn't be, as the sky wouldn't be skinned now would it?)

Event ID 41 is used for reporting heaps of different issues... Got any extra info on it? Maybe use the button to Copy the entire event to the clipboard, then paste it in here?

You can verify by using this: CheckMods 1.34
