Il2 forgotten battles ace expansion pack
Well continuing on my journey. I have finally gotten IL2 up and running as well as my stick and throttle. It is as good as I remember, and of course runs beautifully maxxed out on modern system.
I have patched up to 1.22. However, when I try to install the IL2 AEP, the installer tells me that "IL2 FORGOTTEN BATTLES IS NO INSTALLED ON MY SYSTEM" Obviously it is, it is in the default folder. I have tried opening the folder and using th install.exe from the folder, but same results. My son cant wait to flythe P51 and P38, but we just need some help. Any ideas. Thanx JGP |

My first recommendation is you get Il-2 1946, version 4.07, to be patched up to 4.11.1. It is the complete and final product, containing everything Il-2, AEP and other add ons brought to the series.
I do recall that your problems with Il-2 and AEP were based on a faulty registry entry, and you'd have to edit the registry manually. IIrc, you needed to set a language property, but I'm not sure as this was many years ago. |

I'll add that 1946 can be gotten for very cheaply - around $5 or $10 from Amazon, your local software bargain bin, or as a digital download from Steam.

Thank you all for the great information, through digging, I was finally able to patch to 1.22 by placing manually into the folder.
I still do love this sim. I tried to download 1946 from ubi directly, but for some unknown reason it kept rejecting all payment methods. So I finally had to bite the bullet and went with STEAM. It is downloading now. At least I wont have to do the "patching mombo" Anyways, thank you again for the input. I hope that it just works without allot of headaches. JGP |

I'm afraid you'll still have to do some patching, afaik steam will only patch to 4.09. In case that's true, here's a summary how to patch the game to 4.11.1.
