Jeepo, as Kevlar stated, we are using 4.08m. There is a 'beta' patch out, 4.09, that features user-created maps and whatnot. Since no corresponding server patch was released, 4.08m is still the standard for online playing if you are using dedicated servers.

We are looking at a second day of the week for game nights... any suggestions? I don't know how it would work for the others if we had a slightly more Euro-friendly game time for the second game night.

Hi all.

I only found this topic now...

Do you guys play trough direct IP or using hypperloby?

Which days of the week and hours do you usually play?

Jorge.

**TG_JBRanger** · 12-03-2008, 03:53 PM

We play typically by direct IP on Thursday nights starting at 8:30 PM (Eastern). PM me for more details.

Argh... It makes 01:30 AM here, and that's a little late for me at a Thursday. Maybe I can do it in the upcoming vacations.

Thanks anyway.

Just checking in to see if anyone is still playing this. I just bought myself this off of Direct2Drive, but the file is corrupt on the server side, so I have to wait for it to be resolved or refunded back to me.

EDIT: Oh, didn't notice the last two pages, ignore the first sentence =P Waiting on word from D2D.

**TG_JBRanger** · 12-28-2008, 12:06 AM

Definitely still playing this. Probably going to be kinda light til after the holidays but we do play every Thursday (this last one, Christmas, not withstanding).

**kevlarorc** · 12-29-2008, 03:41 PM

I hadn't played this in a while since I had to work thursdays, this weekend my cousins came down to stay here for a few days and wanted to play it, we played it for a long time and now I'm hooked again.

Can't wait for TrackIR to come in the mail!

Does anyone have any advice on playing this multiplayer with Steam? I just got it from Steam and I'm up for some flying next week. I'll get hyperlobby and see if I can get it to work.

Evo<^|SiNz|^> · 01-02-2009, 11:48 AM

Alrighty, I got it up and running online. I figured out the hard way that Steam doesn't have the latest version, and I had to patch manually. I'm ready to fly now, though.

Edit - Blimey, I'm getting shot out of the sky like no other. If I fly with you guys, you'll have to forgive my noobishness.

Haha, no worries. It will definitely take some practice as a lot of people are online 24/7. You could always start up the game without Hyperlobby and do a quickmatch vs bots just as a way to practice some maneuvers/ not stalling out while dogfighting.

Itching to get on, but I have only now gotten word from Direct2Drive. Apparently I need to forward a port and knock down my virus guard to get a file that large to download right from them. Hopefully I'll have it running by Monday so I can get some practice in.

Insanatrix · 01-03-2009, 07:48 PM

Have you guys checked out www.hyperfighter.sk . the hyperlobby has usually 300-500 il2 1946 players on at night. also check out www.uslglobal.com an il2 1946 competition that my squad runs. also id be up for flying with you guys sometime.

Evo<^|SiNz|^> · 01-07-2009, 12:48 AM

So anyone going to be flying on Thursday?

Yes! Barnacleofdoom, JBranger, Chalcas(with a new mic so there will be no more static), kevlarorc, col. jeremy, and I usually fly every thursday.

Evo<^|SiNz|^> · 01-07-2009, 09:06 PM

Ranger PM'ed me. Hopefully I will be able to make it tomorrow, I have a tentative meeting after work, but I hope it cancels. If not, I'll try to get out of it early.
