A bunch of regular players got 414 and can't join the server because it is not listed on HyperLobby. I told them when 414.1 comes out, it should be fixed then so, I guess they now have to wait until 414.2 comes out???

If you know anyone that can contact the Daidalos team or HyperLobby so we can get this fixed before people delete the game and leave forever.. Please let me know,,, please.

Dusty88, are you managing FUN~4~ALL server ?
Just to say that your efforts are appreciated. I have discovered it recently and have spent some hours there with pleasure (4.13 version). Normally I avoid "easy settings" but AIs in large numbers, shipping targets and "no cockpit" models, especially of flying boats have win my heart.
Well done and hope the server will stay for long.

Yes, I have run the Fun 4 ALL servers since around 2007 or 2008. I put it up because it was the only easy setting server up at the time. A lot of players got their start there, on other servers they were getting creamed on day one. On F4A they got a chance to learn and many people were there to help then with views and other things to help them on the harder servers. Once they got it down they moved on to the harder servers. Some stayed there, they it liked better. Some came back and "warmed up" there before heading to the harder servers. There was even little kids that flew there and had fun.

There were a few people that got mad because new players were flying there and there was no easy kills in the other servers.. I could write a book about all the things that happened there and some of the things people have done there..

A couple of years ago someone from HL said that it was the longest running server on HL. It should be around a few more if my health holds up.

Impressive.
Since Spits vs 109 and Vinni and many others have gone, your server is probably today in the top of the longest IL2 1946 not just running on HL but overall. Or may be the longest of all running, not modded ones at least.
Thank you for your efforts.
