I have a quick question,..........

HSFX is from an entirely different mod group.  As far as I know, they will continue.

[kingsley]

remove the _ru from the prop. files

Nope, I tried that already.  Besides, that doesn't stop a mission from loading.  No errors reported during loading, but just a screen with sky and clouds when finished...  I do not see how these could work as they are in a vanilla CUP install.

I have read your other post and yes that is another way to do it but all I had to do was remove the _ru from the prop. files and info file.
My setup is virgin il2/modact they call for then the CUP in order as follows maps first then dof then jtw then waw.
What I started in jsmge in order as typed
cup forgotten countries
cup true color hd skins by carsmaster
cup missionprocombo v4122
jtw screenpack 01
waw screenpack 01
waw japencats effects
waw opelblitzfixlight
In that exact order no other outside mods was added I also in the config was add wepeffects=0
Also if I was you go to the gerax post on how to make a batch file to dump the last quick file if you have not done it yet would be a good idea and add the last mission file to that batch file too

This is probably a good moment to start fresh with il2 1946
I am really  a noob with it, but the instructions are very clear.
I will be waiting for a torrent , hopefully full inclusive)
, because dowloading each part is a little time consuming
I have two questions:
-before I start, will all this work on Win 8.1 ?
-are there campaigns and mission included in the CUP?
Thank you

[Bearcat]

If you DL the torrents for CUP.. then seed them for a few days... It will really make the process go a lot better. Don't just get them and then shut down the torrent..

-before I start, will all this work on Win 8.1 ?

yes.

There are no installation instructions in the CUP-Manual-V04.PDF.

It is 60 pages of ALL NEW! ALL CAPS! ALL BOLD! ALL RED TEXT! But there is no "this is how you install it." No step 1, step 2, step 3. I've tried my best to install it without instruction but I can't get it to work. What I did was:

1. Starting with 4.12.2m completely fresh. (Game runs)
2. Unzip all of module 1 into IL2 folder, game runs if stock is selected.
3. Unzip all of module 3 in IL2 folder, game does not run with selector set to WAW but does when Stock is selected.

When I say "doesn't run" I mean il2fb.exe runs very briefly when triggered by the selector and then automatically quits.

page 1 of this thread i believe has the install instructions

4.12 + modact 5.3 than module 1 pt 01  than unzip away:))

check post 222 after WAW pt 07

PAls vismods might be conflicting with parachutes so dont activate them unless you find something different.

have fun

Frederf, you do not like the way Monty makes his PDFs?
You do not like the "style"?
I do not like your impertinent tone.

So for this you are set on observer for 2 weeks.
And for ignoring the chat areas header btw.

No one here bashes a admin in this way. 

before I forget: of course there are install instructions in this manual.
more than enough. I just read them.

Did you mean  post 221  Page 19?

 yes, #221 from Griffon_301.

That solved my problems after WAW crash after 70%.

[hello]

INTERNAL ERROR: Effect param file '3DO/Effects/Aircraft/EngineWep2.eff' NOT loaded
INTERNAL ERROR: Can't open file '3DO/Effects/Aircraft/EngineWep2.eff'
WARNING: object '3DO/Effects/Aircraft/EngineWep2.eff' of class 'FObjSect' not created

Can anyone replicate these frosty moments? (Penguins of the world unite!) [Can you tell my sanity has stripped a gear?]

Yes, I can. This effect seems to be missing and causes freezes.

Also missing is a wav.file: argus_1500.wav (easily added through renaming some other wav, but I can't find a link to the orginal file)

FINALLY INSTALLED!

Now I can give a report:

First impression: GREAT!
Installation: Make all they wrote in the instruction and you'll get a monkeyproof result!
Reported bugs: Easily solvable with a five minutes work! (Opel Blitz - C&C corrected entries - Last Visual mod 9 dated 30140911 - add to [MODS] section in conf.ini the entry: WepEffect=0 )

Due their choice of splitting planes in 3 eras (in every installation you must split planes because them are simply too much for a single installation and some mods are always conflicting) maybe the WAW can be felt a bit crowled....I can only suggest (but is in NO WAY needed such) a further splitting in 36-42 and 42-48 or Europe and Pacific (for example in my devloping installation I got a lot more section).

In one of your text files I read "This is a Self Contained - Modular Map Expansion which can be employed until Walter's is ready."

If this is still true I'm more than happy to help you with maps , atm I took the last free days for CUP but I restart work on my project today....and I must only fix the all.ini for 410 to 412 and copy/paste the files in those installation to verify if all is working as in 409....I MUST finish quickly!

So , if I can adapt my work for CUP for a public update please PM me so I can have your specific and know you desired configuration and target.

In the meantime:

CONGRATULATION!!!!!
