I mean the information that came with the latest patch. I could have just said RTFM and been mean about it but my poor attempt at humoring the situation apparently failed

Several planes seem to be bugged in my game. I have reinstalled original 4.07->4.08->4.09->4.10->4.10.1->4.11->4.11 hotfix but still the problem persists:

Several planes, I can't name them all, but most of the I-15s and I-16s for example, but many more, are bugged, in the sense that I cannot view them in the aircraft customization screen (pressing the button doesn't do anything), and when starting a mission playing with them, I cannot view the cockpit and I cannot control the plane. The game starts with a view at ground level even if the plane is in flight. External views all work with no problems at all. It's just that I can't see the cockpit (pressing F1 doesn't do anything) and I can't control the plane in any way (engine, surface etc). I can access and use the radio menu though.

While avoiding these planes wouldn't be a problem in quick missions, the trouble is that DCG uses some of these bugged planes in the campaigns.

There's a slight possibility that this issue was also present in 4.10, as I don't think I played Il-2 since 4.09. Btw, great patch, the AI is really demanding.

I have no problem with the I-15 and I-16 types. I use them regularly.
My install has v4.11 and Hotfix patched on a "working" v4.101

A step-by-step reinstallation has revealed that this problem occurs starting with patch 4.10m. I have like 10 I-16 models selectable, and only a couple are playable. I have no idea how to fix this...

Maybe your v4.10 patch is a corrupted download?

I have downloaded the patch 3 times from 3 different sources and it had different sizes and the problem still persists. It would take messing with the game files to fix this and I bet I'll get sick of Il-2 before I find the patience to solve the problem
Thank you for your responses!

Here are the official links for v4.10 http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=17765

I have a poor internet service so I always use the torrent link at Mission4Today to download the patches. I find this very reliable. http://www.mission4today.com/index.p...etails&id=3997

Try downloading with the Torrent. Far less risky for getting corrupt data when downloading via browser.
