Mike & kingsley,

Thanks for the input!

Mike: The updated MA 5.30 file didn't solve the issue.

kingsley: Your suggestions were very much appreciated. Folder location, updates, etc, were part of my troubleshooting efforts.

I think I've found a clue: SATA Controller Service popped up on the radar and this has never happened before.  I ran an >application<.exe test and had a couple more "%1" hits. I'm going to have to strip my board and run some diagnostics on SATA Controller and re-image the bios.

Like a dog with bone...IL-2 until...

Guys I have a problem. I install Il2 4.07, then patch to 4.12 with the mega patch (at this point the game keeps asking for the DVD even If is in the drive) and I move to install Modact 5.3. then when I try to start the game I get the Modact screen, but the game never starts it simply CTD before it even reach the loading screen. Here the log

Ok, it works now! Thanks.  Is time now to install CUP.

[SAS~Storebror]

Good to hear that you got it sorted. Have fun with CUP!

Can I ask what is the difference between those settings?

ChangeScreenRes=1
SaveAspect=1

ChangeScreenRes=0
SaveAspect=0

[SAS~Storebror]

"ChangeScreenRes" sets whether or not to change the screen output resolution from your windows desktop resolution (if required).
The effect is only visible when your IL-2 game resolution differs from your windows desktop resolution and you run IL-2 in fullscreen mode.
In that case, with "ChangeScreenRes=1" IL-2 will cover the whole screen despite lower game resolution (e.g. Desktop: 1920x1080, IL-2 1600x900) whereas with "ChangeScreenRes=0" the screen resolution would remain the same with (1920x1080 in this sample case) with IL-2 running in the upper left corner of the screen.

Note that when you use "ChangeScreenRes=1" your IL-2 resolution settings must match the aspect ratio of your windows desktop resolution and you must not extend that resolution.
Furthermore few graphics cards and/or drivers fail with "ChangeScreenRes=1" regardless matching resolutions.
For that reason and since it makes most sense to run both windows desktop and IL-2 in your monitor's native resolution, I'd always recommend to keep all together on the same settings and use "ChangeScreenRes=0".

"SaveAspect=1" enforces 4:3 aspect ratio that's all.

Thanks for your reply Mike!

You're a really good teacher!

I just reinstalled Modact 5.3 on my PC and noticed that the G-14, when seen from inside the cockpit has a green texture on some parts of the nose (like a green screen) and the 190 A-4 has an invisible tail.

I don't have any mod that didn't come with the game (except Mission combo pro 4.12 which I added because the one with MA 5.3 is older version and VisualMOD9 to replace the older VisualMOD8 which comes stock). I have also added the fb_hfx* sfs files from HSFX7 in the SFS_Auto folder.

Anyone with my same issues?
