Unable to play on Windows 11

[Deafi]

Mouse will not move.

Alt-tabbing doesn't work
Compatibility doesn't work
Other options in properties don't work.

RIP IL-2

Same...

I can't get it to launch. Tried reinstalling but nothing

[ciolkovskiy]

Decided to edit the file: config.ini
[window]
width=1024
height=768
ColourBits=32
DepthBits=24
StencilBits=8
ChangeScreenRes=1
FullScreen=0

After that, the game started correctly in windowed mode. After that, the screen settings can be adjusted to your system.

I have installed the game yesterday and run perfect on windows 11.

where?

[richman1000000]

right click on Computer -> properties -> Advanced System Settings -> Advanced -> Perfomance -Data Execution Prevention.
Click "add" and choose il2fb.exe in folder

It works on my windows 11, but I had to mess with the video settings and compatibility settings as well.

Same problem. How do you change the resolution when the game dose not launch?.

[jnhoward]

I've tried changing my res' in the config, but still wont launch. Clicked over the dmt (or what ever it's called) in the advanced system file, and added the 1946 exe. Still no launch.
