Got the bug to give the old sims a try. Can't get them to run on Win 10. Tried "compatibility mode", as Admin, nothing seem to work frown

They work fine for me. But I already had them installed in a non-Windows directory, e.g. C:\Ubisoft\...

Are you having trouble installing?
Or are they installing and just not running?

Try installing from a.exe rather than the setup.exe.
This is an old issue with installation

You can get to a.exe by browsing the cd.

Under the mission set up screen click on difficulty and go to the views button and make sure outside views are enabled ..
For screenshots two links
http://www.mission4today.com/index.php?name=ForumsPro&file=viewtopic&p=116656#116656

https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/threads/how-do-i-take-screenshots-from-1946.12000/
The first is for 4.11 and above I think the second is bare IL-2 1946

btw used google to search the questions
