New Install of Cliffs of Dover

[Seabeckfish]

Salute to all and especially all of the folks that have dedicated so much effort and long hours working on updates!

I'm going to give it a go again and install CLOD.

My life became very busy for awhile and I just did not have much time to fly for about six months.

I did make a folder with links and many print outs of install and configuration info plus all of my joystick and flight sim settings.

I have just downloaded and installed CLOD from Steam and have not loaded the patches yet.

In some of my saved data from the forum links I came across the following info:

"After you have installed CLOD via Steam, move the entire directory out of Steam Apps folder to somewhere else on your hard drive (I used to put mine on the top level of the C drive) BEFORE applying the TF Mod
I had nightmares trying to get the TF mod to work the first time I tried it
Seems that for some people it just did not like being in the steam folder!"

The above quote was part of a larger installation write up.

Is this a good idea before applying the TF patches?

Many thanks for your help.

Welcome to the community and forums Seabeckfish ...~S~

Checkout the 'Beginners Guide'...for info and tips...It will save you a heap of time in getting up to scratch.....and its a really fun learning curve anyway..

Also try youtube for startup procedures on all the aircraft...

I recommend getting in the online server as soon as you can take off if that's ultimately where you'd like to fly...I flew single player for 30 minutes before I took the plunge...The ATAG online server is a great environment to learn and there's not really any damage you can do in there as a new player.....It is also mission based just with real players trying to foil your objectives...If you are concerned then pick an airstrip furthest from the front line (there always is one or two on every map) and get some alt before you go hunting...You'll get tagged a lot but there are tricks you learn out of pure desperation in those first few weeks that you'll be able to use later...I know cos I still use the same tricks I learned then too because they work...and never underestimate the stall to get you out of a tight fix...That sometimes works too...TeamSpeak is optional but you'll learn a whole lot faster with it even if you say very little....
