there are also many settings that you can only change via the conf.ini, and not through the setup.
set to opengl with the il2setup with stencil buffer on, then don't use it anymore.
then change the stuff in the conf.ini and save, and then start the game, and viola., res changed. you won't get the widescreen till your flying, GUI will still be in 4:3.
to get perfect mode, in the game then go to hardware settings, select custom, and under landscape select perfect to get perfect mode.
Also as brando says, do NOT change to 64bit (i to have a 64 bit system)
I've just checked M4T and its up, that link i gave you takes you straight to the patch download page if your logged in.
for the record, il2 runs fine on vista with no issues, i'm running vista64.

I'm tearing my hair out now...
Found perfect landscape option, but it isnt perfect at all. Black sky, no detail
Game still running in 1280x etc; and no change. Should I see 1920x1080x32 come up in the selection of resolutions? Well, it still doesn't. The conf files have been edited and both show 1920x1080. The game still luanches in 1280.
The user screens are devoid of any lettering and are just squares, but they co0me back when I drop the landscape to Excellent from perfect.
I've restarted the PC. Lauched the game. No change to res. Still 1280.
I'm beginning to think a complete uninstall followed by a re-install is the only way forward.
