Hey hentzau - That's what I have bought , so how is it no good? - Anything I can do about it?
Anyone got it to work?

TIA

What I have found to be my favourite setup is as follows.

1) PL complete patch installed as per instructions!!!!!! Please read the mans's instructions and you will have NO problems. Start with a new and clean RB install!!!!

2) Into Simpatch I put the WFP default paints so they replace those provided by PL. (Personal taste) The screen shots of some of those in the upcoming PL Version 2 may make me remove them though

3) Some of Dogsbreath sounds into simpatch. Personal taste. I prefer some of the PL sounds and others from dogsbreath.

4) The version 2 of all CDT's aircraft into simpatch as these have been correctly scaled.
I think the PL V 2 will include these by default so you won't need to install these later.

Remember, whatever you put into Simpatch will be read into memeory for use in the game, rather than any programe files or any mods in the PL VOL files.

You can always take them out or replace if you decide you prefer something else.

This is an exerpt from the Patching primer found on the newbie page. It briefly explains what each folder is used for.

Patch Folders info from patching primer
Simpatch
This is the default directory for patches. Any file put in here will be used ahead of all other files, in both single and multiplayer games. Files in Simpatch are used ahead of the same named file in Shellpat for SP; however, files in Multi will over-ride Simpatch for MMP.

Shellpat
This directory is only used by the single player game, so it is a good choice for e.g. flight and damage models, which will get you ejected from a server in MMP if you have changed them from stock. It is also a good choice for any date based patches, otherwise you will get some weird results in MMP. I had a lot of allies flying Siemens-Schuckerts at one point.

Multi
This directory is only used by the game for MMP. It over-rides Simpatch.

3Dpatch
This directory operates in much the same way as Simpatch, and is mainly used for 3D shapes and terrains. I don't really know why it is there; I use it solely for terrains. Though it works in both SP and MMP, I'm not sure if it over-rides the Shellpat and Multi folders or not.

Read the read me info in any patch this is just a brief explanation of the patching folders and what they do.

Campaign Manager required for some patches like WFP read the read me or FAQ on patches site

Don't forget the new Hell's Angels - a compilation of many enhancements (graphics, flight models, skins) and probably the best single enhancement for newbies IMHO. Just add on a terrain upgrade and your good to go.
