Country:  | Help with 1946
I had been playing for years with FB + AEP, and just bought 1946. Installed it , but it simple wont play right. Whem I start the game, it goes to the loading page , then to the presentation movie ( which I can stop using Esc) and then to the initial page. There it freezes, and that is just it. I have to reboot the computer.
Tried unistalling it and reinstalling , and the even unistalled FB+AEP all together, too see if it fixed the problem. Nothing works. I am using a Pentium 4, 1GB RAM plus 512 mb ATI 9550. Nothing top notch , but used to be more than enough. Any guess? I dont know what else to do... |

Country:  | I'm no expert, but I would've thought it'd be something with memory. But that's odd since it sounds like your computer has more horsepower than mine. Is the disc scratched or anything? | |

Country:  | Make sure all files related to previous installs of 1946, FB & AEP have been removed, install 1946 (includes FB & AEP anyway), download the 4.08m patch and install. See how that goes. | |

Country:  | The 4.08m patch is included in all new releases, just browse your dvd. Also try and delete all old files

Country: | I discover a way to make it work: when the game is loading I have to press ESC as soon as the movie starts. For some bizarre reason, if I let it play for more than miliseconds it becomes impossible to stop till it ends and then the computer will freeze. If UI stopo the movie right at the start, I can play normailly. Strange, right? Well, at leats now I can play... Thanks for the help anyway. | |

Country: | Ok if that is your problem, go to: "C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\il2set.exe". If opened, unckeck "play intro track" then you problems will be sorted
