    View/Display filter, check what you want on/off.

    You have to be zoomed in a certain amount for details to appear.

The filter drop down is all checked except bridges by default . IN the game settings in main menu i have scenery settings at high i am trying to upload an image of my map in jpg format resized but it doesnt upload .

    To me MB means Mission Builder, ie the Full Mission Builder in CloD. Are you talking about something else?

    MB is mission Builder in CLOD as per image attached above. as you can see the channel map is void off any markings . No airfield , radar, town , markings and names . The drop down filter menu is by default all checked except the bridges . in game set up options realism all on easy and the 3 icon map options unchecked . at all levels down to ground there are no map icons and markings . Nvidia card 1060 gtx 6 gig video set up as default quality , driver 368.81 which is working fine i rolled back from 370 due to many graphic glitches in the game . In game video set up all on very high , grass off .chanel map 2.jpg

    Maybe you are in too high resolution too see the names - all map area is in the picture.

    My monitor is old - small for today standards - so I need zoom in the map (mouse scroll I think),
    but names are there in any zoom.

    the game asks for 1920x1080x32 . i cant go and lower the res every time i want to see something and then go back and adjust again . Never seen this before in IL2 . I'll fiddle tomorrow with res and see what happens . Also if i keep dropping in drivers it will affect my IL2 moded games quality .

    delete your cache, then install the first patch. Start the game. Quit, delete the cache, install the next patch. So on until you've patched all the way to 4.312. You'll know it it patched to 4.312 by looking at the bottom right corner of the screen on the opening menu screen. Patch 4.0 has a false positive so to DL it correctly you need to turn off your virus software.

    The reason I say start there is we need to know if you are patched correctly, I've read through your other posts else where and I can't tell if you've been properly patched up to 4.312 because some of your questions have been about other versions.

    ok so the first thing to do is to download patch 4 again antivirus switched off . I will follow the sequence you mention and read the bottm right corner off main page and report back . In the newby thread it is mentioned i should see 3.00 on the bottom right of the screen in game after installation of first patch but i never saw anything written there throughout the patching wether one at a time and test or all all together and test.

    Re: airfield icons not showing up in MB

    Well something is going wrong in your install of the patches because you should see the patch numbers on the bottom right of the MENU screen telling you what version you are running. Watch this video and follow along with each step.

    Seems he expect see patch version during flights, what is not correct, is show only in initial screen (right corner, botton).

    Having watched carefully the video i see my basic mistake ,i was installing all the patches into the game which i installed in C:I was directing the patches there the tradional way i do in IL2 . I did not install the game into the steam folder from the start . Start all over no problem. thank you for support.
