Boys, the VP Modpack is by far the best mod product until now.. simple and efficient to install, complex but very rewarding in its practical use. Obviously it is the result of precise choices that make it balanced and effective with frames. This means that all added more if they are not tested by an expert, can create conflicts and changes in the operation, and that's a shame ... I highly recommend you install an original uncut version and mess with a second version with which to do all additions that one believes .. many additions do not affect the operation, but many instead contain unreadable files that go in conflicts with frustrating results ... I personally have reinstalled several times the original version to return everything in its original place !! Always a great URRA for Vpmedia for this wonderful gift !!

This mod pack does everything right.  All the eyecandy and great features and 60+ fps on  very modest and older hardware.  A great way to rediscover IL-2 after many years (on 3 screens no less!)   

THANKYOU!!

I've downloaded Part 002 several times and it always has a 7-Zip compression symbol on it (I've tried downloading it from both mirrors).  When I select the first file via 7-Zip to load into the main directory, it only loads 001.  Any suggestions on how I can solve this problem?

"The secondary goal is to create a package which is really easy to install, its a single 7z archive split into 700Mb parts, extarcting the first part into your game folder will automatically do the other 15 parts too.
Single click install, no manual, no complicated instructions, just start you modact game with the IL-2 Selector.exe as usual."

The problem is how do you recognize as Zipped and open the first file in the list .. I too, I had difficulty with my winzip, did not recognize it zipped ... then magically, with 7zip system, it has opened the first file and everything went automatically in goal....

Thanks for the positive comments, much appreciated!

I'm not sure whats going on there, the filesizes look ok. Did you see this screen?

Yes, that is what I see.  I am now downloading Part 002 using a different computer.  I think something in my main computer (maybe McAfee antivirus) is somehow interfering with the process.

After you press "Extract files" it should ask for a target folder, you need to point it to your IL-2 1946 folder and done.

I dont understand this part:

When I select the first file via 7-Zip to load into the main directory, it only loads 001.

I dont know what loading means in this case and I also dont know what youre calling "main directory". Are we talking about a partial extraction into your game folder? Sorry I'm not a native english speaker so you really need to spell it out for me.

[rkalhorn109]

Yes, I select the correct target folder after pressing "Extract Files".  So far, only 001 extracts into the game folder.  I have never had this problem with other mod packs, and nobody else is reporting this problem.  So it must be a problem that my computer is causing.  I'll see what happens when I've downloaded a new copy of 002 on my other computer.

when it's extracting (loading) it will only show the first part (001).  You will not see the others because it automatically extracts the others.

Yes, this is correct.

or you could just use the sfv file to verify the integrity of part 002
