Couldn't agree more - Chris at UBI support has been as helpful as he can be. That said, I gotta blame someone! Can't just roll over and buy it twice! Hopefully Chris will give me his Boss' email address and I can keep trying...

No idea what kind of recourse you have. If there is something in the EULA (user agreement) for the Ubisoft store when you bought the game then you may be able to fight it on a breach of contract. I am not a lawyer and thus I'm not sure if that would help.

As may be the case with many customers... it's likely too much money and time spent trying to get them to do anything about it. To solve your IL-2 1946 lack of a game issue I would say go to the STEAM store where their customer service is at least marginally better and much more consistent and buy it there for whatever the price is... $9.99 the last I saw.

Thanks all,

I probably will get the steam version. I've had good luck with steam, and they seem to be here to stay. Appreciate the tips.

Best,

UBI do not even support IL2 in their forums anymore.

The current IL2 forum banner/logo is some sort of feral rabbit mutant zombie molesting an underage skater chick in a pink miniskirt. It bears no relation to IL2 or aviation or WWII whatsoever.

You will have to copy the IL2 1946 game directory out of the default steam location and add the patches in manually into a location on your preferred hard drive.

Ie: G:\IL2 1946 v4.11m

That's why my links were for versions outside of steam, a less fiddly installation.
