hi all again ,
Although I have moved on to something else, like the famous il2 CoD, with the Piper kiev campaigns, or even il2 BoS, or il2 BoK, I share this information in summary below, because it is a solution that works great GOOD
Well, for the moment i launch with success bob2 WoV under windows 10, all settings to full, at any resolution ; to do short, i use the method resembling that of Felipze, but according this big formula
:
english cd install 2.0 + 2.06 + [2.06.1] + 2.01 + Terrain texture mod plus 2 (Boreas) + corrective cloud Nimbus (Rogeroger) + mod Grass Dither (Stickman/Boreas) - slats1.wav et slats2.wav files * (fix) = no CTD's
thanks to the cited contributors
In […]: not so useful.
*: to fix the absence of guns sounds, delete the two cited files of the " Sample " folder from your directory game.
cheers, Jarods18 (pulsars once upon a time...
)
Two questions.
Where do I find all of those files?
Second, I do have the original CD but my current gaming PC, a Corsair, does not have a CD rom. Would this work if I bought an external cd player that I attached via a usb?

Hi Scotters
I think that I’ll be good to install the 2.0 cdrom with an external usb lector, I don’t see inconvenience , but I can’t guarantee this operation …, this new cdrom lector will be useful for others operations ….
Btw, once the 2.0 installation realized, you will not have to introduce any others cd rom in your lector.
Send me a PM message on this site for the other point, because I am away from my pc for several days.

Hi All (especially) Jarods18!
I've installed Jarods18's fix for W10 and done a little testing here are my results.
Firstly, my PC Specs are:
CPU AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor, 16Gb RAM, 250GB SSD plus 2TB Hard Drive,
Video Card GeForce GTX 1660Ti 6GB, Windows 10 Home 64 Bit
Display Asus running at 1920x1080 at 60hz
TrackIR
Saitek x45 Stick and Throttle.
I did 2 sets of tests - the only difference in game settings was higher 3D graphics resolution in the second set of tests which I will describe in that section of my post.
My in game settings were:
Use Desktop Resolution = off.
3D Resolution - 1440x1080x32@60
Campaign Resolution – 1024x768x32@60
Ganna Level = High
Ground Shading = On
Item Shading = Reflections
Reflections = On
Weather Detail High
Filtering = All
Smoke Effects = On
Texture Quality = High
Town and Forest Raises = On
Routes = On
A/C Shadows = on
Item Shadows = =On
Horizon Distance = High
Object Quality = High
G Effects = On
Injury Effects = On
White Outs = On
Ground Object Density = High
Particle Density = High
Test Set 1
1- do the experience with a historic london mission with all maxi parameters ; launch the game and see the battle (with the automatic pilot engaged ) several minutes ; click on the map ; return in 3 D; what happen ? CTD ?
Historical Mission – London 15 September 1940
Ran the test twice with no CTD.
2- Run any campaign ; when the map and directives in a board : let the computer doing the missions in automatic ; when the box to fly appears : go in the 3D ; after 1 minute quit the game (J or altX)…. CTD ? If not… try to continue waiting for an another box mission and do that many times in a row ….is there CTD ?
Campaign = Convoys
I did 4 flights with no CTD. There was a CTD on the fifth mission when I clicked ‘yes’ to fly.
The Crash Log extract is:
bob.exe caused a EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT in module <UNKNOWN> at 0023:77728DB2
Exception handler called in int CMIGApp::Run().
Code: cc c3 8b ff 53 56 57 8b f9 8b 1f 85 db 74 13 e8

Test Set 2
I then changed my 3D resolution to !1920x1080x32@60 and ran the tests again as follows:
Test 1 - Historical Mission – London 15 September 1940
Ran the test twice with no CTD.
Test 2 - Campaign = Convoys
I did 3 flights with no CTD. There was a CTD on the fourth mission when I clicked ‘yes’ to fly.
The Crash Log extract is:
bob.exe caused a EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT in module <UNKNOWN> at 0023:77728DB2
Exception handler called in drawloop.
Code: cc c3 8b ff 53 56 57 8b f9 8b 1f 85 db 74 13 e8

Stack: 0023:77728DB2 (0x00000000 0x00000800 0x00000AEB 0x00000000) <UNKNOWN>
I had some issues mapping the propeller pitch control to a rotary switch of my Saitek x45 throttle. It showed as having been mapped in the controls/settings but did not work in game. However, the I mapped ‘pitch’ to another rotary switch on the throttle and this did work in game. I had installed your joystick file so I might do a fresh install without this and see if this helps.
I hope this is useful for you Patrick and I will do some more testing and post the results when I can. If you need anymore feedback or information about the above tests please let me know.
Cheers
Lofty

hi Keith
thanks for your tests my friend....
A pity for the campaign test ; I have had that but rarely and I always save according a progressing campaign with datation steps…
Btw don’t forget you also have a " current default autosave " to do again the campaign that didn’t work and to determine if the point of the crash is the same spot
Moreover the version of the campaign is limited to the 2.01 and it is possible that a bug do this CTD ; i don't think it is a bug as collected by Buddye.
so :
-for the test SET 1-1 , for the CTD when map, then D ; do a left mouse button click on "exit" in the dialog box of the map to return in 3 D, instead using "0"
-test SET 1-2 , and the bob.exe caused a EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT error message ; the crash_log is very different from Buddye and others encountered and do not mention this EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT message
i will preconinaze to run the command SFC and DISM to repair the problem. Maybe there are corruption windows files to repair... i do these commands sometimes
-for the test SET2-1, ok, but also try to run many others complex missions than London exclusively
-for the test SET2-2, same remark above
I remember your installation you did step by step :
1- BoB2 ver 2.01
2- Patch directly to 2.06 english version
3- Patch to 2.06.1 english version
4- Patch to 2.01 english version
My installation is like you but MY step 1 is BoB2 ver 2.0 . MAYBE there is surely a difference ?
cheers ,patrick

Hi All,
I've been testing 2.01 with the 4GB patch as requested by Buddye. So far I have flown 2 x Instant Action (Landing) and 3 missions in the campaign. No problems whatsoever so far. To remind you I am using W10.
Cheers
Lofty

Hi Lofty,
Good work testing 2.01, no surprises. Keep testing 2.01 by trying additional IA and Campaign missions. I know you will hit some old bugs and CTD that have hopefully been fixed in later versions.
