The DEFINATIVE WWII Flight Sim

You won't find a flight simulator more complete, more comprehensive, or more detailed than this sim here. With this DVD (which includes all the addons released up to now) you can blast Panzer tanks on the Eastern front, tear up 109's over the landing beaches in the Western front, or master carrier landings in the Pacific. And with the dynamic campaign generator and a great online community, the replayability value of this sim is unmatchable. Definitly a must buy.

Average Price as of this posting date: 49.95US

Not available in US as of this date.

I got mine today.....Well, it looks good but, I can't get it to work. Everything loads correctly but when I start the game the cd/dvd just spins and then stops without the game loading. I'm looking at other forums and seems alot of similar activity. It appears to have something to do with having two cd/dvd's on. I don't know how to solve yet......any help would be appreciated.

added info from another forum:

What to do if your 1946 disk does not work in your DVD Drive? (Drive not reading the disk, or 'please insert the original disc instead of a backup' message at game start?)

First thing to do is to check the firmware version of your DVD drive:

Right click 'My Computer', Choose 'Manage', click 'Device Manager', click 'DVD/CD Rom drives', doubleclick the drive, select 'Details' tab and note the value of 'Device Instance Id'.

Next, go to the website of the drive's manufacturer, check the latest firmware version available there, and apply it if there's a newer version. Then retest.

Edit (01/04/2007):

If Autorun does not work, try and run "Setup.exe" from the DVD.

If they both fail, try and run "a.exe" from the DVD.

If that did not do the trick, go here: SecuRom Support

Still not fixed? Post your make/model of dvd drive to this thread.

Please make an update when the issue is resolved.

Known models with issues:

HL-DT-ST_DVDRAM_GSA_H10A Firmware: JL04 - Needed a fix from SecuRom Support
