Manual for the new ones

Post by Ombert » Wed Feb 06, 2008 9:27 pm

Hello everybody.

I have been serchin' the forum and I am confused. Probably cause I am noob. :? I have just bought the game but I'd like to fly with you guys.

Would you be able to tell me step by step what I should do to have my game updated/changed enough to join you on the proper server.


Cheers

Welcome Ombert,

I'm sure you can get all the information that you need to get up and running with us in IL2. First, what version of the game did you buy? IL2? Pacific Fighters? 1946?

If you have 1946, that and a free update or two is all you need.

We fly 4.08m. I think you get 4.07* in the '46 box.

If you are serious about the game and ready to mess with a bunch of crazed pilots, we can have you flying in no time.


Best of luck,

:FI:Falcon

yep, I just checked ...

mine says 2.0.32.60

Did someone PM the addy to you yet?

I don't know if we usually give the addy out to a one-poster (sorry) with whom we haven't flown, but it should be ok. Correct me if I'm wrong guys.

Alright, all right, that's enough logic, reason and good sense from you Neil!

Forgive my American Pilgrim morals, I am being cautious. I simply don't go that far on a first date.

Now, the second date ... look out!!!

Guys, guys easy :D

I would like to fly with you at the beginning. Maybe later we would date, but that depends how you look like. I like tall, brunetts with brown eyes. Oh and I would prefer females. :p

I will be happy just to fly with you... I mean try to fly at all. So far I even managed to take off few times :D so probably it take a while before I'd join you. Although if you need a gunner just let me know. ;)

Okay berty,

Check PM's.

Things have been a wee bit slow in HyperLobby (HL) this week, but if you see any of us there, then join in. Two of our most aciest mates who can be found in HL in some of the most disreputable places are =FI=Gadje and =FI=Mikester. Put them and any other =FI= or :FI: member you see there in your friends list.

Join TeamSpeak (TS) and talk to the ground pounders too. Yeah, I know it's kinna embarrassing bein' seen with them, but they can help you a wee bit as well. Just don't feed any of them. They tend to follow folks home.

Sunday is our biggest day. It starts around 1-1:30PM CT or 7-7:30PM-ish Old World time. I would suggest having everything ready before joining that. We start exactly on time, we have no tech problems and we never have re-starts!

excuse me ...

>cough-cough-wheez-choke!<

Now, where was I?

If you have any more questions, please ask. We're here to help. >cough<
