IL-2 Sturmovik series

[Eichhörnchen]

Has anyone been able to run any of these on Windows 8? My pc's not the problem, I'm sure, since it runs all my other flight sims really well (and I have most of them). I can't even get it to run the original and I've tried all the compatibility settings I can, both in set-up and play.

My old XP rig runs all IL-2 well, except I have to turn the clouds off altogether in 1946 to get decent fps.

I've got this on my PS3. Try uninstalling and reinstalling, that does the trick for most of my PC games. Do you have any modifications that you have installed for it?

I don't think Il-2 Sturmovik 1946 was ever released for consoles. You probably have the far less realistic Il-2 Birds of Prey version.

Well, when I look at the box, it says IL-2 Sturmovik, so....

Only IL-2 game that has been released on PS3 is Birds of Prey.
