Ehem.. what game are we playing now?

Post by arne_and » Sun May 22, 2005 9:54 pm

After a relatively long brake from pacific fighters im back in bisniss :) but when i try to start the game (after downloading the newest hyperlobby) it says that i dont have the correct cd inserted.. I tried Pacific fighters, then i tried forgotten battles aces expansion pack , and then i tried forgotten battles only, with no luck. :(

And i guess there has been released a new patch too ,.. and i dont even remember how to install a patch :?
Desperately need some help!

It´s still Pacific Fighters version 3.04 ... but in two weeks we´ll get the latest inovations bundled as the 4.0 patch with lots of new stuff in it ... just ask Oleg! He knows everything about it!

No kidding! 8)

But but but but but... I put in the CD "Pacific Fighters Disc One" and it starts running and i get the small page with "uninstall pacific fighters" and "start pacific fighters" etc. Then i close and starts up hyperlobby, selects snoops server, "join" and after a couple of seconds i get a error message telling me to find the godamn correct cd, and it has to be shut down. And i think i have the right version too , version 3.04 merged

...re-installing the NoCD file again.

If you don't already have the file, I'm sure at least one of us can send it to you.

I belive there is also a post or two with links to the file.

Good luck,m8! :)

If a mobile can do that to your PC, think what it's doing to your brain.

When using your mobile, I suggest you hold it at least 10 cm from your ear and talk very loudly ;)

Post by arne_and » Mon May 30, 2005 10:57 pm

I downloaded the rts file as you said and it now runs without cd :) , but when i start up Hyperlobby, i get this message :Warning : Hyperlobby cannot find instalation folder for you Forgotten Battles game. Please correct/search for the full game exutable in to text box and press save button Example : C:/forgottenbattles/il2fb.exe . And under this there is a search field and a search, save and cancel button. Problem is, i dont know how to write the / that is pointing in the left directionm :oops: . Maybe it will find it then if i could only write it correctly
