IL2 DCG Installation

How to Install IL2DCG
Paul Lowengrin Sunday 25 June 2006

Unzip to any folder on the same hard-drive as your IL-2 Sturmovik game with create folder options on. For simplicity sake, you might want to name the folder "IL2DCG". For the example, I have installed to C:/GAMES/IL2DCG.

When you run the program for the first time, you will be required to set some paths to your IL-2 "Sturmovik" or IL-2 "Forgotten Battle" program or dedicated server.

When first run, you will be prompted to select the IL2.EXE or IL2FB.EXE or PF.EXE program (located in the game's "IL2 Sturmovik" or "IL2 Forgotten Battles" folder or "Pacific Fighters" folder) or the IL2Server.exe (if you are using the dedicated server). This path must always be set or DCG will give you an "Invalid File Name" error. If you receive this error, exit and restart DCG and select the correct path to your game folder.



When first installed, DCG will require a campaign to open. If you want to fly an old campaign you can select that campaign under the "File" Menu. Or if you want to change to one of the "automatic" modes (replacing the stock campaign generators) see the article on Modes.

Note: if for any reason, the campaign, game, or IL2DCG paths need to be changed, you can reselect them through the "File" Menu.

Is it possible to use the version on the forums which was designed for UP 2.0 on condition I wouldn't use new planes?

Lowengrin on 03 Sep : 08:03
Rumours, rumours, rumours. The latest (as yet unreleased) version of DCG has enhancements which work with MDS.

Hi, Paul, I've read something about new version of DCG, which would work with UP 2.01. Is there any progress?

Lowengrin on 24 Aug : 15:03
All but Med'41. However, the Russian ones follow a German/Russian path and you may find yourself fighting in 1945 for Berlin.

Paul,

thx, I will try that as soon as my own computer has been fixed.

As I could select the Italian career from DCG (Med'41, Tobruk'41, Typhoon '41, Rhez '42 and Kursk, I assumed that those campaigns are linked.

Lowengrin on 22 Aug : 21:16
Further to my note below, as the winner was Italy, you need to change the "Red" to "Blue" in the first line.

Lowengrin on 22 Aug : 21:15
Med'41 is actually a stand-alone campaign. It doesn't link to anything. If you want it to link to Tobruk '41, you'll need to add the following to the grandcampaign.dcg file:

[Mediterranean41 o Tobruk41] Red
Campaign=Western_Campaign
Map=SandsOfTime
StartDate=01/12/1941
Front=Tobruk_Supply_Depot
DeHome=Bengazi_Road
RuHome=El_Alamein_Road
DeBase=Gazala_Airfield
RuBase=Gambut_Airfield
Locale1=Maleme_Airfield
Locale2=Maleme
Locale3=Bengazi_Road_Depot
Locale4=Maleme_Beachhead

Hello Paul,

I have a problem witk the DCG Italian Career. When the first campaign (Mediterrenean) ends because the enemy has retreated, I do not progress to the next campaign (Tobruk). I only get new missions without any enemies. Do you have any ideas?

Lowengrin on 11 Aug : 17:28
You're welcome.
