Dave I have re-uploaded the track, same name same place.

Finally completed it All three wheels down @ 21:26. Left a few bits behind though Track is Here I need a rest now LOL.

'Keyboard to practice' ' then he gets out the big guns/stick Go for it Jim

That's a kind offer Jim . I'll have a 'consult' with the boss, armed with this info

You'll be fine with it. Start out with a good sized dead zone and a non-linear acceleration (faster at extreme edges) and it'll become second nature. Need to re-tune mine, sometimes sunlight reflecting off my specs does some crazy things. But I'd never be without it .

Any 3, so long as the sequence is unique. 111 112 113 121 222... etc. Script only uses the first three, remainder of file name is irrelevant.

Funny how the first person I thought of when I saw that was you! I'm under orders now to buy a Glenn Miller CD or two, 'Moonlight Serenade' is one of Jane's all-time favourites

But his log is clean....... :?: :!:

Hmmm. from Netgear site

Glenn's problem is really weird. He can connect from his Dell to the new monster (aka NM), using local IP address 192.168.0.4, this is via the router which is functioning (in this scenario) as a switch (hub). However if he sets up port forwarding, to forward port 21000 traffic (UDP and TCP) to his internet address the connection fails. Traffic leaves his Dell, traverses through the router then 'evaporates'. I tried connecting from my PC to no avail. It is as though his router is dropping the port 21000 traffic from the internet rather than forwarding it, yet if he makes the Dell the server on 192.168.0.2 it receives the traffic OK. To recap: NM can host locally. NM cannot host internet. Dell can host locally. Dell can host via internet. Router demonstrates it can forward port 21000 locally to both, but only to Dell via internet. I have suggested Glenn gets the Dell hosting from internet, then re-configures Dell and NM with each others IP address (this will require disconnecting lead on one to prevent IP address conflicy until re-addressing complete). Any body else got any ideas? I'm off to read his router manual now....

Excellent . Now I'll be able to hear you on TS when we attempt to solve that hosting problem!

Fine! Then I am taking a B-25 with unlimited parafrags and I am going to drop them over every, single square inch of that island from around 3000m until it looks like its freakin' snowing. HAH! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! I'm going unlimited ammo with an AI PE8, 5000Kg bombs......there will be no freakin' island by the time I'm done

Online I find my current convergence of around 600 (can't recall off-hand) seems to be very effective. Sunday night it helped with deflection shots as well as straight six ones. When ground pounding in the Tempest it still surprises me how 'soon' the rounds converge, and again how far off I like to open up. When chasing a slippery eel of a bogey I find I can land shots more accurately from 500 than 200, largely because it is easier to match lift vector to the bogey when one 'stands off' that much. I rarely intend to close below 300. If I am close on their 6 it becomes more difficult to follow and predict the path of my target, and as I find my rounds are still pretty effective at the ranges at which I fire...I have seen one or two planes fall victim One mission in a Hurri I was able to severely pepper the port wing on an HE111, enough to down it. Seeing the bullet strikes lighting up was pretty cool. The AI rear gunner taking out my engine was predictable however (straight 6 attacks on HE111 are more than a little foolish!).

One thing is for sure: This mission not only hones ground pounding skills very well, but it also does wonders for the development of patience and perseverance. Very 'Robert Bruce' ;)

And yes this will work with Glenn Miller too Filched from UBI Forums, posted by JRJacobs: Random InFlight Music Here's a little VB script that will randomize your music - I did not create it, sombody named PXL did. I only modified it for IL2. 1st rename all your inflight music. append/paste any three numbers in FRONT of the wav file. (i used "123-") Paste the following into a text file ___________________________________________________________________ const FilesSubdir="samples\Music\InFlight" Napis = "InFlight Randomizer for IL2 "& dirtobecleaned &"?" Titulek = "Windows Scripting Host" Dim intDoIt Dim fso, fold, ffil, ffilact, num Randomize Call Welcome() Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set fold = fso.GetFolder(Fso.getAbsolutePathName("")& "\" & Filessubdir) Set ffil = fold.Files For Each ffilact in ffil num=int(rnd*999) ffilact.move(fold.path & "\" & string(3-len(cstr(num)),"0") & cstr(num) & right(ffilact.name,len(ffilact.name)-3)) Next msgbox "Run IL2 and Enjoy" Sub Welcome() intDoIt = MsgBox(Napis, vbOKCancel + vbinformation, Titulek ) If intDoIt = vbCancel Then WScript.Quit End Sub _____________________________________________________ Close and save the text file Place it into your "IL-2 Sturmovik Forgotten Battles" folder and rename it IL2RandomMusic.vbs (the name's not important the vbs is) right-click on IL2RandomMusic.vbs select copy, then right-click on your desktop and select create "shortcut". Now BEFORE you start IL2 run the shortcut and it will RANDOMIZE the first three numbers. If you wish you can run this from a batch file (FSAuto start enable it ) by putting: cscript IL2RandomMusic.vbs into a batch file.

LOL. I'm there now.

TS Glenn?

If it not showing IP addresses then you only have one networked card configured, IL2:FB should use this address by default. Do as Jim suggests, and also post the result of the start>run>cmd 'ipconfig/all'

Hehehe, how about this for pissing one off: Completed, all 3 convoys destroyed (mostly with cannon) all four ships sunk, do a final circuit to make sure none have been missed and wham! Rudder and[/] elevator shot up. Managed to make finals but came in too hot and left a crater on the home airstrip. 15 odd minutes total :crybaby:

Hi Glenn. Have you confirmed that the windowz firewall is off? Nope. Also no. Umm no, I think. Dell would connect via 192.168.0.4:21000 Err, no your router is acting as DNS proxy, it resolves local name lookups by querying the DNS servers [i[it's configured with[/i] Only so far as lag/playability are concerned, as this determines the packet scheduling for clients....when it's a server. You can join hosted games OK? So it's not that there is more than one network interface configured? Double check the IL2Setup network tab, and ensure it is using the right interface/address.

About as cheap as it get Dazza. Watford have a good rep too. Fingers crossed it's here by Thursday for you

Thanks M8, nice to see history like this. Amazing that his kit bag and mess kit are still there, and the tin of negatives sounds fascinating.

Umm. This time travelling stuff.... Last week we in the UK were 5 hours ahead of EST, today we are now 6 hours ahead. Ergo if flying times remain the same, UK will be joining @ 9 (21:00) instead of 8 (20:00) At least it's only for a week.....

:crybaby: :shock: I didn't know that.....but I do now. Must brush up on my reading skills!
