So, I've installed BAT v4.0 - able to play so far, no major problems except I think my config.ini file is not optimized.
I installed BAT v.4.1 "Blue Edge" yesterday, I just was hoping if somebody can validate a few things for me:
1) My BAT v4.0 is in C:\Games\IL-2 BAT\IL 2 Sturmovik 1946
2) My BAT v4.1 installation is targeted at C:\Games\IL-2 BAT\IL 2 Sturmovik 1946. Correct so far?
3) After installation, I ran IL-2 Selector. Went to 'Change Settings' and I could see Stock Game, SAS MODACT 5.3, BAT Dawn of Flight, BAT The Golden Age, BAT World At War and BAT The Jet Age in the 'Game Type' dropdown list.
4) I tested DOF, TGA and TJA and for each, the splash page at the start correctly states the module name.
5) But at each module, the content for Single Missions, Training and Play Track seems no different from World At War. However, the graphics for 'Training' and 'Play Track' are not optimized e.g. the planes are pink in color and seem to be in the sea.
If assuming the config.ini file is not optimized for DOF, TGA and TJA, how will altering it impact on WAW, which although the config.ini is not perfectly optimized, it is playable, which is more than I can say for DOF, TGA and TJA?
Am I right to say that to see new content (missions, planes, etc) in DOF, TGA and TJA, I need to download new content and install them in the Single Missions folder?
Back to BAT v4.0, I understand that there are 1,500 new planes etc in this installation. But why I can't see planes like the Kyushu J7W and Aichi E13A in IJA or IJN Single Missions?
