Hi guys.  Turns out everything is working with the HSFX mods with the exception of the 2 standard mods.  I downloaded them packeged together with the lso mod from here: http://airgroup51.net/forum/index.php?topic=1000.0
The lso mod works but if I activate either of the other 2, IL-2 will not start at all.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

A few things to try to narrow down where the problem is...

- Make sure you don't have any mods running in your MODS folder, if you have a MODS folder.

- In JSGME deactivate everything, then activate only 'HSFX history mod'. Does the game start?

- If so, deactivate 'HSFX history mod', and activate only 'AG51_Standard 4.0'. Does the game start?

No MODs folder, I installed HSFX on clean working copy of IL-2 1946 4.11.1m.  (updated from an initial GoG download)
No, the history mod does not run either, and I noticed that the JSGME folders for all three (HSFX history, AG51_Standard and AG51_Standard(Non-Expert)) contain an IL2fb application that looks a little small (156kb).
I have tried all three MODs activated individually with the same result...will not load up.

Thanks

Thanks for your help FireBall, but I am going to FTP the full version from the website to try and make sure I can be up and running for tomorrow night.

They should be the 512mb larger ram exe's on all three of those. So changing your screen res did not work I assume.

Can you get it to run in anything? History, or regular 4.11? Do you have an install (another install) that works from the past? If so maybe copy the conf.ini from the good game and see if this one fires up now.

I would say download our full game like I said last night. You may just have conflicts in your conf.ini, not sure.

On that Mac, are you running OpenGL or DirectX in Conf.ini?

What video card is used?

I have a bootcamp partition with windows 7 OS and run IL-2 there.  The other mods run fine, only fails to load with any of those three. 
I am set up in OpenGL running an NVIDIA GeForce 9600m GT with good drivers.  I am FTP full version now, only won't be ready for tonight... :sad8:

Ok. Wow, are you on Wifi or slow net? Should take 2-3 hours at 800kbps-1200kbps. It sounds like you are only getting 50-80kbps

I always found DirectX to be the best with the Mac.
Running 'excellent' mode rather than 'perfect' in bootcamp was the only way when I used to play on a Mac.
Otherwise I had all sorts of aggro. Got fed up with it and bought a PC. lol.
Things may have change with a newer Mac.
