I have this problem when I select 1024 memory size, and not when I select 256, 512 or 768 memory size.
(My config: AMD Athlon 64X2 Dual Core 3800+, 3 Gb RAM, NVidia GeForce 9800 GT, Vista).

Hope this helps.

I still have this problem on certain maps in QMB (Channel mostly) as well as with the USMC "Toenails" campaign from M4T.
I have the texture compression thing in conf.ini and have fiddled with pretty much all memory combinations possible.
Any ideas?

Thanks Storebror.

try to do the same thing in [Render DirectX] if the problem persists

WOW, I never knew about this problem before.
Thanks all for the info.
I hope I will not run into this sort of problem myself.

Probably...or better, certainly a dumb question about this subject but anyway, why mod packs have diferent memories .exe options while the clean (unmodded) game does not?
I ask this because my modded games (whatever .exe setting) have suffering with that very well known and inconvenient message "...russian paratroopers, bla, bla, bla, etc."
But on the other hand my original game version does not seem to be plagued with this...
And yes, I have my Conf.ini edited as suggested!

Your Pc video card can not handle the textures,
so texture compression needs to be used

S3TC Compression is what needs to be set

Run,setup.exe from inside your root IL-2 folder
on video tab ,select custom
then under texture compression,select S3TC

This is offered by the default IL-2  game,
for those that need it

if you need to use texture compression,then use it

This has nothing to do with the topic on the Paratrooper error
and is an installation issue as the map has installed flawlessly for 100's of people!

have you updated your map,with the update ?

Well, sorry for posting in an old thread but this is the only that i found with the problem i have so...

I have the erro with paratroopers in QMB, changed the 2 things in render_OpenGL and in render_DirectX ut no succes... i keep getting the error... I'm using HSFX 7.03 btw

Hope that someone can help me Thanks by now

[NIGHTFIGHTER]

yep done the same thing myself, copied my great version (that works well!) from my windows xp home computer to my laptop which is windows 7 and in QMB and FMB I have to be real careful what i choose or i get the dreaded paratrooper error message and it locks the lap-top completely and i have to re-boot it.  Ive tried the above remedy with no success. 

[Parasite]

Try TexLandLarge=0 and MeshDetail=2 or 1, than it works with huge maps like Philippines in HSFX 7.03. without problem.

Hello, I'm italian and I'm new at this forum. I'm using IL-2 Sturmovik 1946 4.13 with SAS Modact 6.10 and I had the same problem, I tried to edit the conf.ini, but my Texcompres was already at 2. So I tried everything that you have suggest on this thread, and I discovered that it's caused by a RAM problem on IL-2 Selector: when I set the RAM at 512 MB, it worked, but it didn't when I set the RAM at 1024 MB. So, for a long time, I didn't know who to slove this problem.
But TODAY I SOLVED IT ONCE AND FOR ALL, I'm going to show you how to do it:
1 - You have to go there https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,20703.0.html and download the pilot skins mod file;
2 - Unzip the file and put it into the MODS folder (or others, like #SAS, #UP or #DBW), so you have the mod;
3 - Copy the 3do folder in the Mesh folder and owerwrite if needed;
4 - turn the RAM setting in the IL-2 Selector to maximun.
That's it.
Bye

P.S. Sorry if you already have solved the problem.
