  1. Not at all. The AutoUpdater only updates an existing 6.01 so CheckMods is fabulous, it will quite literally update any install FT and I discussed the possibility of it checking to see how many files needed updating, and pulling compressed alternatives if a threshold was reached. This would save on bandwidth and speed the process up. Yes indeed. Would be very good.But, I've been thinking about it ... and it is kinda tricky.... as in... what to zip up as a set? What belongs 'together'? How can one be sure one has the correct set zipped up? Aha, I know...Checkmods makes a fix-it-report, sends it to the server, the server packs all those files together, mails it to the owner of the issues... ) In properly sized portions for sure... You only need to do some research and some scripting Rog .... I've been doing some extensive testing the past week Rog, is that visible in traffic? Significantly increased bandwidth usage there?
  2. OK just refreshed my memory of how we did this. I need to update the script to use the data from the new forums, this was based on the old software (SMF) so will need to do some research. In the meantime if any others need to use/test we will have to manually add access. There was a script indeed Rog, I edited that access file via the extplorer and changed Kelly's IP address to the one he's currently using.Not sure whether a script is needed, as I wonder how many people will get into that much trouble where a re-patch won't fix the issue... Of course, we got Kelly... Oh, and there's that weird issue that Fenrir has with the Ardennes wintermap, checkmods might be of help to analyze where the problem really is...
  3. w00t!
  4. Right mouse click on the chkmods.exe, then select 'Run as Administrator' And, I think I've managed to give you properly authorised access ...
  5. carp.. that's the old verification whether you're a Dog or not... If you're on Windows 7, try and run it as administrator?
  6. Well, especially for you, CheckMods exists.Try the new version, it's still in a test state, but as you are already kinda lost, you got nothing to loose... Link to CheckMods 1.7 Just let it point at a defective installation of IL2, you can even try an old copy of UP3 ;-) (Others better not use it yet!)
  7. CNN, with video: http://edition.cnn.com/2012/09/02/us/iowa-air-show-crash/index.html
  8. 4.11int should indeed be installed over 4.10.1m.... Did 4.10.1m run without errors? Are you sure your started with a clean 4.10.1m? If not, try and put patch 4.10 over it first, then 4.11m If so, try and re-download 4.11int patch, maybe it got corrupted during download? If it still aint workin', you can try and download the MegaPatch, which contains all patches from 4.07m up to 4.10m. Could be a good base to work from...
  9. Bribe 'm... easy
  10. Sure, I can let you know: Colin is not a bit of a joker. Well, maybe he is, but he spoke the truth here, yep, not a joke! As for the other fun stuff; Here's your brief, read it! You'll be needing: Patch 4.11m and install that one ( link to file in vault ) Patch 4.11.1m and install that one (link) Once installed, make sure it's running okay, and then make a backup copy of the game. Next, download and install HSFX 6, which is a large one. For details on howto: see this thread by Fruitbat Once that's done, get patch 6.0.1 (link) And finally: the recently published autoupdater: Link, which will bring it up to 6.0.12 (Unfortunately, the Autoupdater will not install HSFX completely automatically, it will only bring it on the latest patch level. Whether you can skip patch 6.0.1, I'm not sure....) After you've installed them all, run JSGME.exe (it's in the folder where you installed the game) and make sure these modes are active, in this specific order, where HSFX History should be the first one listed: -HSFX History mod -Expert Mode Finally, one MOD you should install: The Flyable G11. (Glider aircraft) We use it every now and then... Link to a thread by Fruitbat Got it? Good Luck! (P.S. I am working on a new release of CheckMods... too bad it's not done yet... Could've been useful for you... Sorry!)
  11. Change catalyst AI setting?
  12. Good fun show Colin!
  13. Happy Birthday Nick!
  14. w00t!
  15. Happy birthday!
  16. Welcome back Olly !!
  17. For scores, just add the command user to the icons.rcu file. Every minute, the scores will then be listed in the console, press shift-tab to check them out. Should you think once a minute is too low a frequency or refresh, then drop the 60000 to 20000 or 10000 for twenty resp. ten seconds refresh.
  18. Me thinks there's no manual on how to do it step-by-step, or a complete one...To do advanced stuff, like mission rotation, you'll be needing extra software like fbdeamon, or IL2ServerCommander. I've been looking for links... some info is available. FbDeamon: http://wiki.sturmovi...?title=FBDaemon (German language!!) FbDeamon server commands IL2SC: http://wiki.sturmovi...English_Version We have (had?) two dedicated servers running.... one for DogFights only, and one with mission rotation. Both are (were?) based on IL21946 with UP3 RC4 mod set. The simple commands should also be available. Here's a long thread on IL2's dedicated server, starting with Crazy Ivans' setup guide. To get it all together, and to understand it all... daunting task... Good Luck, and Have Fun! Oh, one more simple tip in the command prompt of the server, you should be able to get some help on commands by typing 'Help' (or maybe 'help')
  19. You should be able to browse the disk to [drive:]\Documents and Settings\<username>\ but you probably have to use the security tab to assign yourself access rights to those files.
  20. Happy Birthday geezers, both of ya!
  21. Can't confirm/prove it by using manuals / documentation on the laptop, but I still suspect Sata Native mode/ACHI vs. Sata-IDE mode as the cause of this. See here: Sata on Wiki Not sure whether hooking up the usb adapter to a Win7 system will work, there is a chance...
  22. w00t! It's gone! Thanks web(g)host!
  23. What brand/model is that USB adapter? What brand/model is the laptop? What OS was running on it?
  24. Yeah, it takes up so much space!
  25. I like that aircraft hangar gallery thingy to be moved out of sight ...
