Bob I am in Rugby, UK and I hope you have a nice meal. For your info, UP or Ultrapack is the base for the DBW installation that you've been playing and their files are in .sfs format which is the file type native to the game.

I will be around for a while tonight and for the next few days as I want to spend time with this new TFM. I am happy to get you up and running. I don't know whether IL-2 1946 has any problems on Win8 as I continue with Win7 by preference.

Speak soon

Hi all

Can someone help me??

Thanks in advance

Within JSGME deactivate all the packs and options so you just have 4.12.2 with MA 5.3. Does the game start? Add things step by step. Be aware of the need for both up.sfs and updbw.sfs files. Add packs one by one and start the game after each addition.

I'm retired from the Navy and we lived in London for three years back in the mid 60's.  Have been back over the years for vacations.  Love your country.  Now I'm getting too old to sit on an airplane for eight hours so I have probably visited my last, but I do envy you.  Thanks for your patience and help.  I'll let you know tomorrow sometime how things went.  But, as usual, I do have a question.  Would I just copy all the .sfs files from my DBW install into the "new" game that I intend to try?  Thanks again.

Not necessary to do that Bob. Monty put up a list of the .sfs files that we need in our root folders. As I was starting from a fresh install I used the UP 3.0 RC torrent files plus the 8 updbw_mapex.sfs files from DBW. Those files are the ones you need to add to your root folder once you have your game set at 4.12.2 with MA 5.3 plus the options as you wish.

It is quite an elegant approach once you understand it and enables us to fly the latest TD game with the mods we like. Should make for some awesome campaigns in the near future.

I am ex forces myself Bob and have travelled extensively in the US and in Texas too. I envy you living where you do.

After disabling Tiger33 mod, all working flawlessly! 

Yep my bad JotaC - We tried everything to get Tiger33's Sounds in TFM-412 and I thought we had it solved.  Too many, seemingly unrelated, conflicts kept popping up from places we never expected and had not tested for.  With this pack design we were able to isolate new problems as all the mods interacted.  The modular design and approach of TFM-412 has helped us a lot here.  Now its retro'd out and not part of the set.

I finally found those files in the first post.  Man, it is rough when your eyes are as old as the rest of you.  Seeing small print is getting tougher and tougher.  It is, indeed, hell getting old.  And I have two kinds of cancer to.  I did get the game to install (in Win 8.1) so now I guess I am good to go.  Thanks again for all your help, and having the confidence in me that I could handle this. I'm sure I will be back in the forum, so stand by.
