jldjs1 Posted January 22 Posted January 22 Very new to this IL2 Sturmovik series. I purchased BoS from steam and dl'd it on my PC in its own folder. I then purchased Bodenplatte from IL2 store and dl'd it to its own folder on PC. Now I just purchased Battle of Normandy from IL2 store and am about to dl it, but where should I put it? In it's own folder? In one of the other two folders which doesn't seem right, but then I don't yet understand how different games relate. Battle of Normandy requires Bodenplatte, so should I install it in the Bodenplatte folder? I searched for answers in this forum but didn't find any so any help is appreciated. I have been unable to link my IL2 purchases to my Steam one because I kept getting the "Invalid email address error". I'm guessing that if they were linked I could use one launcher?
1CGS LukeFF Posted January 22 1CGS Posted January 22 There's no need to download anything further - by buying Normandy you are essentially unlocking the content that comes with it. It all goes in the same installation folder for the version bought here.
jldjs1 Posted January 22 Author Posted January 22 (edited) Thank you LukeFF. Let me see if I understand. I should not download BoN from IL2? Or, do download but put “it” in the same folder where I downloaded Bodenplatte? I also bought a career or campaign(can’t pass up a sale $2+ bucks and learn how to use that), Hell Hawks over the Bulge. What do I do with that? Download it into that same folder? I’ve assumed that the game code has to be on my pc and the launcher just validates my ownership and provides for updates if there any like 5.05. PS I decided to purchase Stalingrad today. So, I should just DL or install into the folder where Bodenplatte is? Edited January 22 by jldjs1
Aapje Posted January 23 Posted January 23 @jldjs1 All the modules are in the game already. When you purchase them, you simply unlock them for use. They are all available through the same launcher + interface. Since you purchased Stalingrad, you should now be able to start a campaign in Stalingrad, fly the planes from that module, etc.
jldjs1 Posted January 23 Author Posted January 23 Thank you Aapje, that’s what I was looking for, that all I need is what is in the dl of Stalingrad! I’ve not played a game structured this way before and expected each of “titles” was a separate piece required to be dl’d and installed. I couldn’t find the description as simply stated as yours! But let me ask what if anything must I do with the three titles I just purchased, including Stalingrad, that are in my IL2 account?
Aapje Posted January 23 Posted January 23 You only need to log into the game with your account and all the content you purchased should be available.

But everything is allready installed, as on downloading and installing _any_ part you download and install _all_ parts on your pc. As you bought the first part from steam you need to link your steam account with the il2 account... Deci
