Through WAW part 14 my game loads normally. After updating through pt 15 a,b,c, when I attempt to load a quick mission with the P-51D-20NA aircraft, mission loading stalls at "30% loading aircraft". After as much as 5 minutes I close the game with Windows Task Manager. Task manager shows message " il2 Forgotten Battles not responding". I have downloaded part 15 a,b,c three times over several hours and built WAW 4 times with the same results each time.
I get the same message for the Hurri 1938. 1a 12lbs and IIa. I noticed several other aircraft, both British and USA with the same message yesterday but did not keep a logfile for them. Perhaps the problem effects all aircraft requiring sound preset motor.Rolls-Royce-Merlin.start.begin and .start.end??
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Here is the end part of my logfile. It is the same each time.
