Cant open UP3 ??
« on: May 27, 2011, 11:48:18 AM »

Hi,

I've done an install of UP3 onto a vanilla 4.101m now I cant open the game - if I click the .exe I get an 'IL2FB.INI' on my Desktop followed by the selector - I select UP3 and press play but nothing happens - I notice I get two files on my desktop at this stage, which disappear,  'arkan.sas and kan.sas'

I've activated UP3 in JSGME along with UP widescreen/hakenkruz

Any help gratefully recieved

You've copied the il2fb.exe to your desktop (for whatever reason?).
Don't do that. The il2fb.exe belongs to your IL-2 installation folder, which for sure isn't your desktop.
Maybe you wanted to create a shortcut on your desktop?
If so, right click on the il2fb.exe in your IL-2 installation folder and select "create shortcut". This will create a shortcut in the same folder, which you can move to your desktop then (the shortcut, not the exe itself).

Best regards - Mike
