VISTA 64 bits vs HyperLobby
 

Please friends....

I would like to know if its possible to run the HyperLobby on Vista Ultimate 64 bits ???

Thank you all guys !!!

Yes...it is possible. I jsut built my new computer and I can run Hyper on Vista 64.

Ok so what did you have to do because I'm having trouble installing the d/led porgram (hlpro39111). Any help out there It looks like a windows drivers issue but I don't know enough about this stuff to be sure.

What kind of message do you get? And is it Vista Home premium 64 or Ultimate?

Go into the control panel, then users, and turn off UAC. This will help a great many things. The other thing you could do is right-click on the installer and "run as administrator", once it's installed right-click on the hyperlobby .exe in the installed folder, choose properties, and go to the compatability tab and set it to run as admin. It's easier all round just to turn off UAC though.

Turning off UAC should be the first thing to do after first boot up :D It is not only annoying, it causes a lot of problems too... Good point Urufu..

getting 2 errors when installing associated with these files:C:\Windows\System32\mswinsck.ocx
C:\Windows|lsb_un20.exe
The program will not boot after install as these files are missing or corrupted. A search of mswinsck.ocx was not inspiring. Looks like Windows sees Hyperlobby as a system threat.

I had UAC turned off but didn't ahve to do anything special after that to get it running. Vista 64 Ultimate here.

In other words, it lets you install it but will not let you launch it?

I just tried again with user accounts turned off- same result. (Vista 64 Ultimate)

Try rightclicking the instal file and run as admin, see if that helps. You also might want to redownload just in case the file is corrupted. Where are you downloading it from, just to be sure?

I wonder if this is that Visual Basic runtime issue...

Did you try this:

Download>extract hl.exe to desktop>right click>run as administrator>install Hyperlobby>find desktop shortcut to Hyperlobby>right click>run as administrator>Done.

If you look here: http://hyperfighter.sk/modules.php?n...download&cid=3

You`ll see Visual Basic runtime, install that, then try HL again

Ok, I've loaded the runtime module and I finally got hyperlobby to load but it doesn't recognize the command path for Il2. I can't manually get it to "see" the game either so it may be as simple as which Il2 do I choose if I have Il2:1946 as I don't see it on the list. Any other ideas would be nice as I see that there are lots of people online AND I WANT TO PLAY TOO

Select IL-2 Forgotten Battles on the list. Even if it doesnt find path, enter it manually...

I've left the UAC on and run HL with no issues. When you install software, no matter what it is, you must run the setup.exe as an administrator. Once installed, right click on the program file or icon and under the "Compatibility" tab, tick "Run this program as an administrator" in the "Privilege Level" section. It should run fine.

Hl only recognizes the file name il2fb.exe.So you might have to rename the 1946 exe file to il2fb.exe.

The exe file looks like its still named il2fb but even if I enter the path manually it still doesn't recognize the path. HL runs better now except for this issue running as administrator. Do I still need the mswinsck.ocx file and in what directory does it go as a search doesn't bring this file up. (I also created its own install folder and did not place it in any of the program files- <command path> D:\Ubisoft\Il2- Sturmovik 1946\il2fb.exe

nvm I'm in and I didn't need those other files after all

Thank you very much guys :)

I am going to buy a ASUS G2Sg notebook (Vista64 ultimate default) to play Il2 with maximum settings on AW, then a friend of mine said that hypelobby would not work with Vista64.

Now I see the light :)

Later on when i have it on my hands I will post if everything went well :)

Thanx again !!!
