there are also a couple of flakey files out there.
the first one I downloaded failed to unzip a couple of corrupted files, so watch out for that in your log when you extract.
tried it on both 1GHz Athlon with TNT2 and Celeron850 with GF2MX with exactly the same result
I'll wait for the official one. 100MB+ is something you can only do so often on 56K...

What file structure???????
My zip has 128 separate files. No folders att all.

I can't get it to run after reading the boards for an hour.

I have dx8a , and all the files are un-checked for read only.

Any ideas?

WinZIP-archives do not have internal folders, but they might store the info of the folder-structure the files had before they were zipped. It will be created when you unzip the files, but you have to check the box on the lower left of the WinZIP-window that appears when you want to unzip the files.
There are actually 10 subfolders in my install. UbiSoft, would it have been so difficult to make an installation-routine?

Without the folder-structure, the exe of Il-2 searches for files in subfolders, but does obviously not find them.
Hope this helps.

Mosi-


I don't see the box. What is the name of the box option?

Thanks

Got it!

Thanks

Glad it worked. Sorry if my specifications weren't too correct, but I have the German version of WinZIP and do not know how the things are called in English versions... .
