Those missions will load, but you need to put the path like missLoad "missions\Multi\Dogfight\Blue vs Red - Steppe.mis" including the quotes

Hi Basha,

Did you ever get rid of the message "failed to load steam service"?

Does it affect you at all?

I ask because ours cannot be seen in the list, only direct ip it will work, but it won't show in the list yet

EDIT: It is appearing in the list when we add it to Steam Favourites

Yeah but we get the message on every server start, on several computers have tried.

Seems its not important though as the server works!

Out of interest are there plans to make launching a server without having to use a steam account ? i have done server admin for my clan for years setting up FPS servers mods etc... we are currnently looking at running a BF3 server on our dedi box but we will have to give up our RDC access(files cant be seen) this isnt a huge problem as we also have TCadmin control panel to access servers BUT CLOD by the looks of it it cant be added to the control panel because of the way the server has to be launched, ive been talking to our GSP guy to see if they can sort it for us, has anybody here tried adding Il2 to TCadmin CP ?

If the problem is Steam, you can register a new empty account just for the server.

If TCadmin CP can launch a .cmd file then it can launch CloD. Have a look at link #7 in my sig, maybe it would be helpful.

Link 7, i passed that on to the GSP man on msn chat he said something about needing the .bat file is that the same as .cmd ? re the Steam i set up a clan account for Il2 with only CLOD installed.

Thx
