Editing the opening post with updated instructions would probably make this thread less active, because newcomers would more easily make it work on first attempt.

The il2 selector out of date or not used is the most  likely culprit of unsuccesful installs, mentionning it in the opening post with a link to it would prevent many headaches.

It could also be said that, while non essential, carmaster's water is recommended to this date.

The opening post links to the readme which mentions all this.
I've edited the post a bit, to make the readme more prominent.

I read the readme and missed the il2 selector reference at first reading.

Adding a link to said selector https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,16403.msg626272.html#msg626272  ,either in opening thread or readme, would make it more visible, imho.

Do I need to use the "Selector", rather then the "IL2 Random Skies Launcher" to make things work?

hi, I installed it and it works.

but i do have a problem; without it I have around 30-40 fps with ground maps (like normandy), and theblackdeath track, and 60 with sea maps (coral sea)
with the graphics extender i do have many less: 15-20 with ground maps and blackdeath and around 30-40 with sea maps (coral sea).

is there anything i could do to improve fps with graphics extender ?

AFAIK it's enough to launch it via selector once.

Your fps are already quite low without graphics extender. It is to be expected that they will be even lower with it.

Not using "precomputed" helped performance on my rig, though.

True - but it's off by default anyway.

First off many thanks for your groundbreaking work Slibenli, you've literally transformed the game. Second, are you planning more features or just polishing off the current ones?

If you're not an expert, nothing to modify, as slibenli said it's off by default.

If you remember having yourself modified a file and used this word, undo it.

You can reset all settings to their defaults by deleting il2ge.ini.

Not sure - I'm currently taking a break from development.
