Dedihost 4.08... How to start?

[misjka]

Hi all!

I'm in for a n00b's question: How do I start the dedihost? In the distribution I've dl'ed, there is no exe file to execute?

[misjka]

Hmmm... Really no one that might have the answer to this one

Do you mean the IL2 Dedicated Server? If so you might have downloaded the 4.08m patch for the dedicated server, no exe in that one only data updates.

Installing the IL2 Dedicated Server can be a trying exercise, normally you have to initially install the first version and then go patch by patch to all the way to 4.08. Creating a 4.08 Dedicated Server installer should be doable but I haven't seen any floating around - maybe others can help.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your kind reply .
Although, I believe my question is even more n00bish than that: Where do I find the dedihost to begin with ??? I.e., I cannot find it on the IL-2 -46 dvd or anywhere else on the net...

What I did find, though, was this DL page: http://www.fz.se/spel/?id=5916

Ok misjka, you just dove into the deep end of the pool.

First of all, see this link

You'll want to install the "merged" version i.e. AEP+PF before you continue the updates.

You can find the patches up to 4.04m (use the ones with the "m" in the name - m=merged) here ....
http://ftp.ubi.com/us/games/pacific_...cated_servers/

alternatively here ....
http://pacific-fighters.com/en/updates.php

ATM I cannot trace the rest of the patches, maybe you can find them on the fz.se site.

Hope this helps.

Oooopsie-dooopsie... That really went deep !

Thanks a lot to you both!!

So, if I understand this correctly, I need to install all of the 11 versions to complete the task of having an up-to-date 4.08m server?

Just download dedi server at the top of the page its a complete installation of 4.08m
