@Ze-Jamz: No problem! @SEE: I have the patches installing as we speak (in the right order) and hyperlobby is up and running. I'm VGGuy on it, by the way I'll have to look at those mods - will I be able to play non-modded games with them installed? I have been looking at CoD and WoP :p Thought I might hang out for a little while for them to become cheaper - not enough funds at the moment Edit: Also, I cant seem to see the part about upgrading the graphics. Maybe I'm bing thick.. Last edited by P-51; 10-12-2011 at 03:40 PM. |

P51, if you tell me which GFX card you have installed, model, memory size, etc ( it will be an ATI or NVidea) I will post what you need to do, how to do it, etc. I will also link you to some threads that may be useful. The objective is to have the game running in 'Perfect' which you cannot do by the in game graphics menu. If you think its good now, wait untill you see it running in 'perfect' mode.
The latest Modpacls allow you to select wether to run IL1946 modified or Vanilla (unmodded) via a simple start menu - you just select which you want to run. For someone new to the process of modding I would strongly suggest UP3 as this includes all the popular mods and more flyable planes than you could ever wish for and its self installing. Discussion of Mods was prohibited on 1C but that ban was lifted so you can find out more in the 1c IL1946 mods forum. Also google UP3 and you will find the UltraPack website with lots of usefull info and download links (its a frigging huge set of files so be warned that it takes time to get them all DL'd to your pc. Well worth it though!

IL1946 is a big Sim. I'm sure you will enjoy it and you need to add the official update patches in the order that they were released. You will also need 'Hyperlobby' for online play (which is free) and lists all the servers available, once installed you launch it, select your server and it loads IL1946 for you. All the info is on the IL2 sister site along with the tweaks to optimise the graphics way beyond what a standard installation provides
I would recommend you do that first, then at a later date add one of the modpacks such a UltraPack 3 or SASmodact 3. Some servers require you to have these packs installed and/or running at least official version 4.11. Out of the box I think its 4.07. Get Headtracking, probably the best accessory ever designed for Flightsims apart from a Flightstick and essential if you intend to go on full realism servers at some point. If your PC can handle it get 'Cliffs of Dover' too!
