Usually when that happens you just have to click on the map and it will then display correctly. ;)

... I have just ordered a 27' 1920*1080 monitor today and I am really eager to try this mod ...  :P

Here is a very nice prog to let you compare screen size and aspect ratio etc ...

So, I'm still getting up to speed here.  I came across this wide screen support item before I even knew what HSFX was.  I was wanting to find a way to expand the games screen so I could get the benefit of my Samsung monitor.  Since I found this forum, I've updated to 4.09m, downloaded and installed HSFX, along with 7z. 

I've downloaded CirX's mods and extracted them both.  So with respect where the mods actually go in the scheme of things.  There's a C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\Mods folder and a C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\jsgmemods folder.  I think I'm suppose to put them in the JSGMEMODS folder.  But from what level of directory in modifications do I make the copy?


Do I copy L:\Downloads\1946\Ecran_Wide_Josse_CirX\MODS\2 Ecran_Wide\*.* or L:\Downloads\1946\Ecran_Wide_Josse_CirX\*.*  or something else entirely?  Any help would be extremely appreciated.

the place to put it is in your mods folder.

the "2 Ecran_Wide" folder in the download, is the one you put into your MODS folder (just like a mirror image of the way it is in the download)

So it will be for you :

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\Mods\2 Ecran_Wide\font\...ect

Hmmm.  I copied to the mods directory but don't have the benefit of the wide screen placement of the speedbar, minimap, etc.  However, the pin-up sepia is awesome.

did you use 7zip to unzip it? Other apps may not be so successfull.

Check if, in the folder of the mod, you 4 hashed classfiles (names like 8D899CBE8D84FB1C , ect)

...the UPS guy knocked on my door this morning, only one and a half day after I placed my order (hats down Amazon ...!!) he had a big, very big parcel for me ...  :P

Well the least I can say is how could I live that long with a such a tiny 20' 4/3 screen ...??  :D

The 27' 16/9 is huge to the point that I am now embeded in my cockpit, and I can see details I didn't even suspect before ...!!

The Ecran-Wide 2 mod works like a charm, a big THX to Josse and CirX  ;)

Here is da monster :
