Been a Microsoft CFS fan since the beginning. Have 9 installs of CFS3 2 of which are Pat Pattle's BoB (a big update coming soon) and Just Flight's BoB-(no longer available). I've already downloaded the update and muti-skin package. Can't wait till my new rig is built so i can run BoB II WoV at max settings. Regards , Scott

Hi, and welcome!

Please read the patch v2.13 install readme, found here:
http://www3.telus.net/v1ncent/bob/BoBII%20BDG%20v2.13%20Installation%20Readme.pdf

for information on OS and hardware compatibility. BoB2
is only currently maintained by the volunteer BDG group,
and has a limited platform landscape - it does not run on Win8/8.1,
and results from Win10 users are so scattered it is hard to
make a reliable statement - some people have few or no problems
while others have not been able to get it to run at all.
Meanwhile, it is sufficiently RAM-hungry that it exhausts
the addressability of 32-bit OS, and XP will only run with
a large address tweak to the boot file.

BoB2 v2.13 is really only reliably happy on Win7-64. And it
likes a modern CPU and vid card, but that is getting to be less
of an issue as time goes on, there are fewer insufficiently
beefy systems out there. A quadcore cpu, >=4GB RAM, and
definitely a 2012 or newer gamer vid card (not a $40 generic
card, and most definitely not an integrated chip set on the
mainboard) are the preferred config.
