How do you install the patch (1.8)??
 

Hi

Sorry to sound like a complete and utter tool but, I can't work out how you install the patch. I know most people these days don't need help with this sort of thing but I appear to be a little backward.

Firstly I read the stuff relating to the previous patch (1.7) and the suggestion that an "integrity check" be done before the patch is installed, to get back to the last official version.

That's fine but I can't seem to find where that can be done. This is all the more irritating because I think I stumbled upon this feature at one stage. Would someone please point me in the right direction. Instructions can't be too detailed.

Secondly, I'm having trouble working out what the correct destination path should be for the patch. My game is in my C: Program Files (x86) drive (thingy) so would I be right to assume that the full destination path should be:
C: Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\Common\IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover

Does that sound right??

Thanks

hey lonewulf...
go to steam, right click on your game,go to properties, then local files(then you can do your integrity check.
after this, you will have again the last official steam version.
download the patch, and extract the files to the path you already mentioned with a program like 7zip.

Many thanks!

For me, after a long time this is playable. FPS were always OK, but now it became more smooth. Step in right direction.

S!

Smoother than previous patch, but hard to say before can test more.

this patch is very nice.:grin:

Thanks B6

PD:Date relase BOM sequel? huahua ;)

Thanks; also to the posters who set up extra d/l links . . .

So far no crashes, game runs butter smooth, although it could be due to this new 4 gig gtx 670......... but at least no crashes.

lol i cannot even DL it from this site, aswell as from Airwarfare due to incredible low speed (around 6-10 kb) :(
It cuts off after 50-100 MB and i have utterly Highspeed internet :(
Recon i gotta wait several days so the speed goes up again :(
