S!~ Decker,

I feel your pain, brother. And, I'm trying to help (but you knew that). It really doesn't help that the guys putting these patches out aren't paying enough attention to detail. With Pappy putting the wrong patch up it really didn't help you and I determine your problem at all. Honestly, if they would spend some time testing we wouldn't be running out of alphabet for version numbers.

Please give Wings~of~War another try and see if you can access it. I can tell you that once I updated my game with the correct UP2.0nPatch.exe I couldn't access the server. Once I updated the server I was able to pass the CRT=2.

Yoke, you are welcome, sir. I'm doing what I can to stay up to date. As you may have read, Forgotten Skies is now UP 2.0n as well.

Something I did with RB3D and do with IL2 is once I get a good install working with how I like it, I make a copy.

Right now I have:
IL2 4.9b w/UI1.2 (The tracks made under UI do not play under UP2.0, so this is for movie making only)
IL2 4.09m Stock
IL2 4.09m w/ UP2.0

and then a IL2 4.09m w/ UP2.0 that I use

This way I keep all my key settings conf settings and do not have to hassle with reinstalling from scratch.

It was advised by someone that we should save space and dump our AAA UI installation. Now of course you don't have too, as a matter of fact you can save your AAA UI installation by burning it on to a disc.
