    Hoorah!

    Right, I have finally got my broadband connection at home!

    Anyone gonna be around tonight who can help me in the skies for a few friendly dogfights? Also, what program do you guys use to play IL-2 online?

    I need to update my files I think, I'm running the original version from the CD so may need to do that first!

    Any help with this would be appreciated!

    OK, got HL up and running, callsign same as my Hexus username

    Maybe I'll see someone I know on there later. BTW, I only have IL-2, not Forgotten Battles (at the moment)!

    OK, this is rather annoying... I'm trying to update my IL-2 to v1.2 which I believe is the latest version but in order to do so I need to first upgrade to 1.1. I am running 1.03 so need to upgrade to 1.04 first before 1.04b and then 1.1.

    Do I really have to update to 1.04, then 1.04b, then 1.1 and then 1.2? All the links for anything before 1.1 seem to be broken too and I can't find them anywhere.....

    Any ideas what to do?

    :edit: It's ok, I've found a patch for everything before 1.1 it's called il2upgrade_1.1a.exe but all the links seem dead!

    :edit again: Sorry, 3DGamers works... thought it was one of those crappy subscription sites so didn't bother looking. Downloading that patch now. Should be upto 1.2 soon. maybe in time for 9:30!

    Hi chap, glad to see another taking to the Hyperlobby skies, if you can find a few pennies FB is well worth it. Lots of new planes and even better flight models.

    S!

    Cheers Hat, I'll keep that site bookmarked!

    I've now got IL-2 up to 1.2 successfully, another hoorah!

    Am looking online now for FB and don't know many shops so had a quick check at kelkoo and it brought up Game for £19.99.

    Will check my local store for availability!
