Re-installing IL-2 Great Battles: What files to backup


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I guess I'm going to have to re-install IL-2 Great Battles.  Starting today, I get a CTD when I click on the "Enter" button on the first screen after loading with mods off.

 

What files do I need to backup to save my Campaign and Career progress, as I don't want to lose those.  And also, I want to save my profiles for my Thrustmaster T.16000M joystick, CH Products Pro Throttle, and Track IR. 

 

And anything else I need to think about before re-installing IL-2 Great Battles.

 

Thanks!

 

P.S.  I have logged a ticket with the support desk on this issue.

The "input" folder and "Luascripts" folder in the data directory are what I backup on a regular basis.

Will the content of those two folders cover everything I mentioned above when I try to restore everything after a re-install?

 

Campaign and Career progress?

And my profiles for my Thrustmaster T.16000M joystick, CH Products Pro Throttle, and Track IR?

 

Have you used those two folders successfully for a recovery?  I have over 50 campaigns and careers in progress right now.  Losing the progress in them would be pretty devastating 💀  I'm talking years of progress 😟

 

Thanks! :salute:
