TF :
Well after yesterday's problems it appears the patch has been pulled. Lucky you if you never had to deal with the fallout.
In the wake of the patch I have decided to post a small review of what it is probably easiest to do if your game is completely wrecked and a way to preserve your patched version once completed.
FIRST AND IMPORTANT STEP:
Go into MyDocumens/1CSoftClub/il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover and copy the "conf.ini and confUser.ini files somewhere safe (desktop would be fine). These files contain all your key-bindings and screen resolution etc, etc.
Go to Steam and click on Library.
Find IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover
Click Properties
Click Local Files
Click Delete Local Game Content.
Wait for the program to be uninstalled.
Go into your folder here C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common
and delete any Cliffs of Dover files/folders
Go into your MyDocuments\1C SoftClub folder and delete the il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover folder (NOTE. DO NOT REMOVE your "il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover - MOD" folder if it is there!)
Now go back to Steam
Click on Library
Find the greyed out "IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover"
Right-click on it and choose "Install Game"
Now go back to your folder here C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common
and find the IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover Folder.
Copy that entire folder somewhere else. If you have another drive attached, copy it there, if you don't create a new folder on your hard drive and maybe call it "Cliffs of Dover TF 4.312"
Paste the IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover Folder you just copied into it.
Now download the patches (if you don't already have them) from here:
http://teamfusion.theairtacticalassaultgroup.com/and install them to the IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover Folder inside the "Cliffs of Dover TF 4.312" you just created.
Here's a video tutorial:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xewfAma7GJAFollow the instructions of running the game between each patch install (by launching the game via the 'Launcher.exe' inside the "Cliffs of Dover TF 4.312" you just created NOT by launching it in Steam!!!!
Once finished you will have a fully working version of v4.312 and it wont be updated by Steam updates if another beta patch is released. Your modded Team Fusion version will work as it did before and this folder is the only one that needs to be updated with Team Fusion future patches. You can leave Steam to mess around with the Vanilla folder on your C drive should any future updates become available.
Hope that helps, cheers, MP
