I'm hoping that some one can help.
I down loaded the correct DBW-1.71 in order to install the DBW-1916 update.
I installed the DBW-1.71 and it works fine the DBW-1916 that come with that install
also works.

I disabled the DBW-1916 that come with the DBW-1.71 by placing [ - ] front of the name.
I then installed the update DBW-1916 in the main game folder and it CTD @ 70%.

I went back and reinstall the game from the disk and  the DBW-1.71.
All works.

I have down loaded the update 4 to 6 times and reinstalled over and over.
Its always the same CTD @ 70%.

It was suggested to try  a splitter and join part 1 and part 2 of the update which I did.
Still the same.

If you have any idea as to how and fix this please post.

Thanks for your  Help.

I don't know if this will help you but this is my working 1916 folder. Download it to a folder of you chose then unzip it. Just comment out your existing DWB_1916 folder and copy this one to you game folder.https://www.mediafire.com/download.php?kbmom2883kohknb   Good luck i think you will really enjoy flying the sky's of the great war.

No trouble Bud I am enjoying this mod more then any that I have. Takes this old man back to the good old days of Wooden Planes and Iron Men.

I have a problem with FMB.
It works fine with stock game and UP-3.
When I place home base on the map with Aircraft all looks good. Somme and Somme 2
Mission file shows spawn points and all objects I placed on the map.
missions\net\dogfight this is the location I save my missions.

When I go to the map and arming screen I can not choose a base.
In fact in one test mission I placed 3 bases and only one showed.

Thanks for any help.

When I look at my wing from cockpit view, the Struts do  show up properly.I mean where they connect to the lower wing section,the strut is not there,only the bit 2/3rds down from the upper wing is visible.The bracing wires are not looking correct also from inside looking out of the cockpit.This happens with The Sopwith Camel .The Sopwith Snipe is really bad from Cockpit view, every part of the wing is out of alignment.

This may have been posted elsewhere, so please forgive me if so:am not getting part two to properly download-at least I cannot unzip it in the usual way.Part one & Patch have come in fine,but in trying to unzip part 2 I get an "cannot open file as an archive "message.In properties it says it opens with  "microsoft shell commer..." I'm a PC lightweight so I no idea what that is or what to try after all the usual suspects.Can you help - otherwise Ihave to go back to the ealier DBW version? Many thanks.

this is a thread for bugs, not for criticizing cockpits
please understand that many wwI planes are unfinished.

Dietz are you using 7 zip? if not try that.
can be found at this link:
http://download.cnet.com/1770-20_4-0.html?query=7+zip&platformSelect=Windows&tag=srch%3Ba&searchtype=downloads&filterName=platform%3DWindows&filter=platform%3DWindows

Place parts #1 and parts #2 in a holding folder. Then unzip Part #1 it should also unzip part #2.
Place the unzipped folder in your main game folder. RENAME the old #DBW1916 by placing a  - in front of the name.

I have the same problem as you and still can't open it.
Please post as to how it goes.
For a heads up my game CTD @ 70%.Still dont know the cause.
