Who is Team Daidelos, and how can I get this upgrade/mod/patch of theirs?

There are no stupid questions

Team Daidelos is a group of developers, who - with the official approvement of Oleg Maddox, 1c, and Maddox Games, in their spare time, and with no financial gain whatsoever - develop IL-2 further.

Oleg had developed IL-2 until version 4.08. After that TD took over and published 4.09 through 4.10.1m. Now we're all patiently and under gread suspens waiting for 4.11.

The "Il-2 Sturmovik: 1946"-CD contains version 4.071m and a patch to version 4.08.

So you'll have to (and exactly in this order):

1. buy and install "Il-2 Sturmovik: 1946" (make a backup, just copy the directory)
2. Execute patch 4.08 (in the CD) (make a backup)
3. Download and install patch 4.09b1m (make a backup)
4. Download and install patch 4.10m (make a backup)
5. Download and install patch 4.10.1m (make a backup)

The v4.09b1m patch was the beta patch. The Daidalos Team v4.09m patch made the beta patch obsolete. You also forgot the v4.09m skins patch.

There is a mega patch uploaded at M4T that will take you from the CD version of v4.07 all the way to the current Daidalos Team version 4.10.1m. It includes the v4.09m skin pack.

Here is a patching guide at M4T with the current patching order and links to the individual patches for those who don't want to use the mega patch.
