Steam download of IL2 1946 did not come with IL2Setup.exe
« on: January 06, 2023, 03:15:31 PM »

IL2Setup.exe is not in game directory, ive heard of this also happening to other people who downloaded the game from Steam, so i dont think i deleted the file by accident. Without this file i cant enable perfect mode to use certain graphical mods, this is a huge roadblock for me, could someone maybe post the file on mediafire so i could download it?

No panic you can do the setup for perfect mode directly in the conf.ini file that you will find n the game main folder that you can open with any text editor starting from notepad

read here to understand what you need to do :

https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,9756.0.html

on post #5 you can find several examples of configuration depending on your rig and GPU you will have different choices.

For perfect mode the most important part is the openGL section.

It is pretty easy and you will see that once you learn you will never touch IL2setup.exe again that is actually an old file that is there since 2004

Finally you can also change the setup from inside the game sufficient to click on the setup buttons and then video modes and video options and note that you can only have perfect mode with OpenGL enabled in video modes

Enjoy

So your conf.ini looks fine
Be aware that when you face problems you need to provide more info on your hardware and software as if you don't have a dedicated gpu it it will be difficult to get perfect mode or it could be a driver problem.

 you need to post your log please see here how to do it
