Where Does Cliffs of Dover Store Settings and Campaigns?
Cliffs of Dover Blitz keeps conf.ini, key bindings, campaign state and skins in a Documents folder on Windows.
Last updated
Cliffs of Dover Blitz keeps its user files in Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover. Graphics settings live in conf.ini, every key binding in confuser.ini, campaign progress as .state.ini files under mission\campaign, and custom skins under PaintSchemes\Skins. Stock missions stay in the install folder under parts\bob\mission.
Third-party campaigns and missions go into the matching mission subfolders, with underscores in campaign folder names exactly as campaign.ini expects. One space too many hides the whole campaign from the menu, which accounts for most failed manual installs.

Frequently asked questions
The game looks broken after a patch. What should I delete?
Delete only the cache subfolder inside the 1C SoftClub folder after patching. Team Fusion recommends this after every update, and the game rebuilds it on next launch.
My campaign restarted itself. Can I recover it?
Open the matching .state.ini in mission\campaign (for example bob.campaign_gb.state.ini) and check the BattleIndex line. A reset campaign shows index 0, and editing it back only works with the game closed.
