Lothar Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 Hey Dogs, I haven't been up to much flying this summer, but I feel this is about going to change.. I'm sorry if I suddenly went quiet without telling why, reason is simply that during summer a whole lot is going on and the few moments I could actually have flown I didn't feel in the mood. But I knew autumn would come, so it didn't need a farewell. Anyway, I'm back into my school routine, and very happy to say that probably from next week on I'll be able to joing you all in the sky once again. I've got just a small issue, apparently 4.09 is finally out. I think it's great, and I just downloaded this patch too, but now I'm not too sure anymore if my game version is still compatible with the one you dogs are using now... So can someone please be so kind to tell me what exactly has changed? I still have the game like it was last June, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2. Administrators Jabo Posted October 25, 2009 2. Administrators Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 Hi Lothar, Glad to hear you're on your way back to the pound. We're still flying AAA 1.1 for the time being, although AAA 1.2 is now out (you can find this in the Vault) which some of us have while others don't, so no hurry for that at present. Jim is using 4.09 final for his ubizoo session on Saturdays. You'll need separate installs for 4.09 and AAA 1.1 though as they're not cross-compatible.

Lothar Posted October 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 Thanks Jabo, That's all the info I need! On the other hand Crash just posted a link to the ubizoo forum confirming UI 1.2.5, compatible for 4.09. I guess that will be our new standard in the future so I'll just skip this UI 1.2 and wait for 1.2.5 Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2. Administrators Jabo Posted October 25, 2009 2. Administrators Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 You may need 1.2 in any case m8. I read the thread Crash linked, but am more confused now than before. Jabo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfesser Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 The Pedestal campaign is being run in 4.08 modded and 2 more weeks left to completion. I'm not doing anything until it's over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lothar Posted October 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 Thanks for all the help so far guys, so I patched the clean install up to 4.09m (could handle that), but apparently I forgot how to launch the game without needing the actual DVD. I've bought the DVD, take my word, but I haven't got it next to me and I'm sure there must be a way to launch 4.09 without needing the official disk.. thanks for any help.. (But don't panic, I kept the UI 1.1, this 4.09 is just a separate install..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 This is what you need Lothar: http://www.dangerdogz.com/K9Vault/p13_sectionid/8/p13_fileid/67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lothar Posted October 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 Thanks BG, should've searched better. Will try and tell you if it worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lothar Posted October 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 I'm sorry, but the file I get once it's downloaded is called il2fb.47.exe Now I don't know what that .47 is doing there, and when I try to run it I get the message 'il2fb.47.exe is not a valid win32 program' (translated from dutch) when I delete the .47 it's still the same message... I will download it again, but if anyone has better ideas.. EDIT: when I open it as administrator, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 Lothar. Put the il2 47.exe in your game file then send a shortcut to desktop. If you double click on it, the game should open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lothar Posted October 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 Nope, doesn't work BG, but thank you. If you say I have to put this il2fb.47 into the game file, you main the main folder right? Where il2fbis already located? oh well I guess I'll wait to play this 409final until I have found my disk again. But many thanks for your help so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gec Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 try this one: http://www.dangerdogz.com/plugins/p13_download_manager/getfile.php?categoryid=10&p13_sectionid=8&p13_fileid=501&p13_versionid=534 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I think the reason it was named il2 47.exe was to distinguish it from your current exe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lothar Posted October 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 The switcher? What do you mean with the switcher? I mean, I can't get the 4.09 running, that's a copy without mods (clean 4.07+4.08+4.09), so I don't get a version switcher with it... Well, nvm I'll just wait for UI 1.2.5 to come out, and I'm sure it will work fine then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gec Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 did u try the link i've posted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lothar Posted October 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Not yet, I wanted to download it yesterday but my connection was so crappy it would've taken 2 hours to download (2 hours for 4MB!!!) I'm dowloading right now and it's only 9 minutes left, will tell you as soon as I've tried it! Thanks Gec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 The switcher will only be in your mods game version; otherwise you have to use the NoDVDcrack ie Il247exe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lothar Posted October 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Gec, IT WORKS!! Thank you a lot! BG, it's strange, but the 47 exe didn't work for me... Maybe it's for 4.08 only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 No m8. I am using it for all. B16 Enk will be along to explain...... maybe. But glad you got it sorted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
