Actually, I just saw something in your message that might be crucial:

You wrote: "... install #DBWClean and rename to #DBW."

I have been taking the #DBW folder out of the #DBWClean folder and replacing the original one with that. 
Are you suggesting that it should be
gamefolder/#DBW (renamed from #DBWClean)/#DBW
rather than
gamefolder/#DBW (extracted from #DBWClean) ?
I have not tried that.

Glad you didn't do it that way because I did and it doesn't work.

So, DUH - I messed that up.  Just took the #DBW folder out of the DBW clean folder and that worked fine!  DBW loads.  I am now copying over my favorite DBW mods and Monty pack 01.

Fingers crossed.

STOP THERE -  I am now copying over my favorite DBW mods and Monty pack 01.   This should be ringing alarm bells!

Well I backed all of them out* and just went w/ Monty 01 - and got the 5% crash.  I re-d/l'd that file and got the same thing. I am trying with the new buttons now and will report back.

Sorry to be a pain here.

* BTW, these were the official DBW mods that are part of the 1.71 install and not just some I took a fancy to.

Barkhorn1x, I am following your progress closely.

I have a brand new game from scratch which works with stock, UPRC4 and DBW 1.71, so I am afraid to move forward.

I have part one downloaded three times and the clean DBW also which does have a newer buttons file than the one in the fresh install.  I will try both at different times.

(Should there be DiffM file in there anywhere? )

Looking forward to the day this works.  I will have to shoot down lots of EA to get out the emotional debris.

Thanks again to all of you who so valiantly work on these mods!

No joy on the new buttons still get the 5%.

Here is the bottom of the log file:

Looks like a possible issue w/ tigersounds?  But that's a guess as I'm no expert.

[Barkhorn1x]

OK - this was an issue - as looking at my log file there were a ton of button issues before I put the new ones in and those are gone.

I went to this link:

https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,3258.msg32569.html#msg32569

...and d/l'd the SFS files (tigersounds1 & tigersounds2) and added them to the root directory and Monty 01 loaded!!!

Hi Monty.
With the new #DBW folder from AG-51 Hoss's, the game loaded fine.
Now Im gonna start loading your packs through jsgme one by one and testing.
Thanks

These are the correct buttons - case closed...

On the SAME thread you posted there, page 4:-----

With regard to the DBW Button Fix on page one of this thread, labelled for DBW as:

Buttons fix for ALL versions (sept 3rd 2012) (fixes among other planes B29 and Skyraider start up bug)
https://www.mediafire.com/?f28a3jzeve3elb5

These Buttons (2384kb) kill the Bf109 open canopy function on some of the Bf109s. 

***********

All Bf109 canopies work with SAS_Buttons V9.7.7 for DBW.

Well done Gerson, you should find that all is well and your confidence in TFM will grow! Please let us know.

No, you are doing that part right by the sound of it.

This one is a direct packaged RAR from AG-51 Hoss's backup

By some miracle, I have gotten Monty # 1 to work, but it is not the version I got through the torrent.  It is the version that I got in 4 parts from Speedy before you had to have a premium account there. 

Now onto number 2!  Wish me luck.  If I have to, I will stop wherever it quits and just play that.  It is already a great version with only one part enabled.  Thank you Thank you Thank you.

Feedback:
Packs Nº1-3 loaded and game running fine.
Loading nº4.
Thanks

Well, that is point of the modular, cumulative build, but I personally will not be satisfied until you are flying all the way up to Monty-14!  Take each step one at a time and if you hit another problem we will go from there.  However, with Monty-01 working for you I would be confident that the rest will play fine, because of the solid structure of this build.
