  1. Working on the basis your host (or gateway machine) is running ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) and you have made no changes there: On host do start > run > cmd Type ipconfig /all This will spew out the IP addresses associated with your system. You should see 192.168.0.1 as its main IP. On your gaming rig do the same, you should see an IP address of 192.168.0.x where x is between 2 and 254. If it does not have a 192.x.x.x address, and instead has a 196 address then it has failed to pick up a DHCP address from your Gateway PC. Do Start > Settings > Network Connections (right click and select 'Explore') Find your adapter there, right click and do a properties on it. Scroll down to the Internet Protocol entry, highlight and then click properties button. Enter the following: IP address 192.168.0.2 Subnet mask 255.255.255.0 Gateway 192.168.0.1 Apply and save and it should work. Pinging 127.0.0.1 is only testing the local loopback device, which is virtual, and merely confirms TCP is working - not your network! the 1394 adapter is a firewire adapter and is not normally used for networking..

    Cute kid! Youngster is cute too
  3. I'll keep the DF on UP, now should be running RC3, until I get a request otherwise. I would think the variety of Aircraft is the plus, not to mention the sounds - should make the DF experience all the more tense
  4. Did I win? The font of all misleading knowledge has an article on it
  5. Nice buy Jim! At work we have gone from IBM/Lenovo to Dell... there is no comparison in build quality
  6. Yeah, happy Canada Day Hmm.. looked very pert from what I saw @ the wedding.
  7. My personal favourite is the work station one..
  8. A paraprosdokian is a figure of speech in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is surprising or unexpected in a way that causes the reader or listener to reframe or reinterpret the first part. It is frequently used for humorous or dramatic effect, sometimes producing an anticlimax. 1. Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience. 2. Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car. 3. The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it's still on the list. 4. If I agreed with you we'd both be wrong. 5. We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public. 6. War does not determine who is right - only who is left. 7. Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad. 8. Evening news is where they begin with 'Good evening', and then proceed to tell you why it isn't. 9. A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a work station. 10. How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire? 11. Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish. 12. I thought I wanted a career, turns out I just wanted pay checks. 13. Whenever I fill out an application, in the part that says "In an emergency, notify:" I put "Doctor". 14. I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you. 15. Behind every successful man is his woman. Behind the fall of a successful man is usually another woman. 16. You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice. 17. The voices in my head may not be real, but they have some good ideas! 18. Hospitality: Making your guests feel like they're at home, even if you wish they were. 19. I discovered I scream the same way whether I'm about to be devoured by a great white shark or if a piece of seaweed touches my foot. 20. There's a fine line between cuddling and holding someone down so they can't get away. 21. I always take life with a grain of salt, plus a slice of lemon, and a shot of tequila. 22. When tempted to fight fire with fire, remember that the Fire Department usually uses water. 23. You're never too old to learn something stupid. 24. To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and then call whatever you hit, the target.

    Old Games

    Old games.. Wing Commander was one of my favourites. Remembering the copy protection they implemented, asking wat word x on line y on page z in the manual was. My photocopy got well ragged
  10. OK I amended the syntax to match yours Tonar, but with the parameters as posted by GEC.
  11. Thanks Dragan, that's what I needed! Should be good to go now Sid.
  12. I have another paid for one, can't remember what it's called.. which makes it handy.. Prey I have heard of, neat DropBox is pretty handy.. use it quite a bit for sync between work and home
  13. For a moment then, I thought this was one of your light hearted posts.. Hey.. I'm a veteran of 2 now, first for me too was el supremo bitch in training - she ended up surpassing all expectations. So we ain't going to Dubbo round here any-time soon
  14. Done. As will he no doubt, eventually, crap strike that. Marriage can be a beautiful thing.. especially when you are an observer loaded up on the free booze OK joking aside now. I wish them both the best, a marriage of Army and Air Force is going to be interesting!
  15. The 4890 arrived yesterday Ross, thanks! Now I've got to do the transplant
  16. I have a G25 wheel, daughter has hijacked it for her PS3 Need for Speed sessions. That Race07 series looks pretty good for an old 'un, and only £16 or so too on steam.. hmmm.
  17. It's running on Linux Todd, the problems I had before were getting FBD running - largely down to the Java aspect oddly enough!

    Sad But True..

    Damn, sorry to hear this too Ovy. Your mates are here for you, your wife needs you more than we do..
  19. Well our Dedicated server is UP3 RC2 as of yesterday. I thought the MDS was also a client side mod, and if you set your system up to host a DF it will be a moving DF.. so only one instance of IL2 needed. Otherwise it doesn't make sense, running dedicated and client on the same box..
  20. I think that meant use the MDS mod, fire up your game and host the DF. Not a Dedicated MDS as such..
  21. Right click the folder and select Properties Jim. Alternatively have you tried running QMT as admin? You can modify the shortcut to always do that, and it may resolve this for you.. Again tight click the shortcut, select properties. Click on the 'Compatibility Tab' Check 'Run this program as an administrator' at the bottom.
  22. Where are these missions on your hard drive Jim? Were they restored from a backup, or did they remainn on the drive from a previous windows build? Reason I ask is that the 'read-only' attribute is a known Windows 'feature' and is usually ignored. You can try running attrib -r -s c:\your_il2_folder This could be a file permissions issue: My bin folder for example: Security for users, note read only so no editing: Security for Administrator - full control:
