Oh dear Lord, another 1Gb+ download...So long friends, I may be some time...

Are other people allowed to use this too Pete? Jabo

13.6 tons - nearly 30,000 pounds! - Holy cow. Mind you, the Grand Slam was 22,000lbs. Jabo P.S. No Jedi, you CAN'T have one.

Too damn complicated for my (admittedly) tiny brain - Just tell me what I need to do and when.

Just at the weekend m8?

Let me know when you're likely to have the machine back m8 and I'll arrange to come over again and help you get set up (if you want - otherwise I'l just sulk here instead - grin) Jabo

The Beau was renowned for the punishment it could take - looks like that's been modelled in the game!

Is there any point if it doesn't support 4.09 final?

Forgive the stupid question TOAD m8, but you have checked the memory you're using? I'm sure you have but... Jabo

Much lol, and probably rofl. This describes a surprising number of people I deal with daily - I may have to print this out and pin it to the workshop wall Nice one Jack. Jabo

Chin up m8, we'll get that beastie sorted yet and you can go back to shooting me down aga...Oh, just a minute... Jabo

I was fortunate enough to meet Gunther Rall at Duxford in 2000, I have a rather splendid print of his Bf109 he signed for me. RIP Jabo

An interesting take on an actual raid very early in the Battle. I'll have to check the diary for the date, but there was an unescorted raid by Heinkels which incurred so many losses that it effectively removed that Luftflotte from the order of battle for most of the rest of the summer. Brilliant score to that film, I have part of it on my iPod. Jabo

Never been seen in same room at the same time though...Hmm

+1 (can't mod your post Colin, sorry) - On a(nother) separate install

Alternatively, right-click il2fb.exe in your 4.09 game folder, select 'send to' from the drop-down menu, then select 'desktop (create shortcut)' - you will then have an icon on your desktop called 'Shortcut to il2fb.exe'. Double-clck that and you're away. If you wish, you can then remane the icon IL2 - 4.09 or something else meaningful, so you can keep track of the different versions. That will have no effect on il2fb.exe as you're only renaming the icon not the file it points to. This is what mine looks like (as an example, nothing more). As you can see, I have three installations in use now, the SAS-modded version (using the AAA switcher), the normal AAA version for use on co-op or seow nights, plus (now) a 4.09 version of the game, but no switcher, so it's the old icon

There's definitely a word to describe people like you FT ol' pal. Six is plenty for the likes of a simpleton such as I. It does work though, so that's nice. Although I seem to have lost the furry end from my headset mike

Thanks FT & Friar, just in the, ahem, Nick of time as I've just completed patching 4.08 to 4.09 Jabo P.S. This may be getting out of hand as I now have SIX separate installations of the game sat on my HDD

I too have managed to download said patch (a 500Mb 'patch' - more like a whole new game.) and am just installng a new, clean version of the game as I type. Thanks again to all involved. Jabo P.S. *** Dumb Question Alert ***

Naturally, although not a lot of people know that... Sorry Jabo
