According to WineHQ AppDB, the reason that Linux and other OS users have troubles is because of differing/emulated msvcrt.dll, so the solution there is to replace the built-in Wine .dll with a native Windows one. Perhaps the problems you are experiencing are related?

Right now it is very hard to find a decent vanilla IL2 server with CRT=2 enabled where veteran players like me can play on.

I don't like to play with arcade players in those arcade servers because there is no fun there. Everybody is flying I-185-71M, La-7, J2M and Spit 25lb, although it is nice to practice your skills with those open-pit fliers. But you'll soon get bored in the air quakes. I was like playing Counter-Strike in the cockpit.

What's worse, because mods are allowed there. I don't know if some of them are flying aircrafts with improved FM. (Many mods do this, right?)

So, if you know any popular crt=2 enabled stock servers with historical settings where teamwork can come into play, please write them out here.

Thanks

Ok you have your list of servers.

If you don't like the current situation instead of leaving create your own server to your liking,
if its popular others will join and you can deal with all the moans and groans that comes with hosting a dedicated server just to keep a few happy.

PS:
CRT=1 checks the IL2 1946 directory.
CRT=2 checks more than the local IL2 1946 files.

Have fun.

Hey, thanks!

I am acctually running a dedicated box with several CoD server instances on it. I would like to set up a decent CRT=2 server. But the box is currently located in China. Its ping is not so good for European and American pkayers.

What exactly is that "more"?

V408m read me

The server can now check for changes on the client-side game modules, i.e. ensure the modules were not modified. To enable the check, a new key was added to the conf.ini file.

In order to set the client-side verification parameters you will need to manually edit the conf.ini file located in your main game folder before launching the game. Open the file with a text editor, find the [NET] section and in the checkRuntime = line write in either 0 or 1 (or 2), then save the file. If the checkRuntime = line does not exist in your conf.ini file, add it to the end of the [NET] section.

checkRuntime=0-no check is made (default);
checkRuntime=1-quick check;
checkRuntime=2-comprehensive check.

NOTE: during the comprehensive check, if the client runs a different OS version from the client, the check may identify the OS differences as changes in game modules.

Sorry, I didn't make it clearly. I'm running some Call of Duty servers on my box.

I thought CRT=1 checks just the exe,
And CRT=2 checks the exe and dlls and buttons file?

Do SFS files affect CRT check?
I like to keep ultra pack cockpits loaded even in MP because the stock pits are so dated...

Unable to find a decent populated 4.11m stock CRT=2 server 14 days after the patch release. What a joke.

Switched back to 4.101m now. Although can not enjoy 6DoF any more, at least I can temporarily forget the roaster like engines on German fighters.

Rem:

I think I now understand you - a bit.

Actually - no, or not so much. It's more that it enables you to fly planes which you otherwise can not.
Afaik it's impossible to have the same plane, with different FM/DM, ingame.
For instance, there may be a G.55, but unless you have HSFX you cant fly it.
