Yes an install to C:\Program Files (x86) will cause the same problems.

Hmm , nice, if only there where such an effort for dedicated server files , these are harder to find (at least some time back when I searched for them)

[rcttsoul2]

I am tring to put together a dedicated server now, but now I have come to a stand still as no body on the net will help me, I have all the files needed, I just dont know how to run it, I am at this point:

OK, this is the point where I am at and dont understand what to do:
Step 3.

Now the IL2FB server is just about prepared for starting.

You still need to do 3 things though.

01. Create a difficulty1 file

02. Create a localip file

Create these files here

03. Create a mission called test1.mis

Create the mission here

Once you have done these 3 things return here and continue.

Now lets start the server to see if it goes!

Find the file "il2server" in the Dedicated Server directory

Run


dont know what it means when it says: Create these files here & Create the mission here

As I dont know where the above is described, here is what I learned reading some wiki pages and readme's:

The server is started through a command line script file, the difficult1 file you mention can be executed from within the server as console command before a mission is loaded, so it doesnt really matter where the difficult1 file and test1.mis file resides , as you have to enter the relative path when executing the dedicated server commands.

The localip file doesnt ring a bell , there is a ip conf option in the conf.ini , and depending on how the server is configurated it can either be started within a console window or some kind of detached task that then can be controlled by the il2console tool, but as I havent got the files together, making a simple config is a cruel task

Funny that researching dedicated server information shows your post on the first page on google , good luck , I will keep an eye out for some ancient DS patch I might have on one of my drives already, the information for a basic config should hopefully be included but may however be outdated.

I need examples of the difficulty1 file and localip file, if you can, please put in a .zip file and send them to me rcttsoul2@gmail.com

Instead of executing the file , the commands could be executed in the main script before loading a mission,

somewhere in your documentation there should be some command like:

"f difficulty1"

within a cmd file, this means it would execute all commands within the file difficulty1 , but instead you could write (within cmd file):

difficulty SeparateEStart 1
difficulty ComplexEManagement1
difficulty EngineOverheat 1
difficulty TorqueGyroEffects 1
difficulty FlutterEffect 1
difficulty WindTurbulence 1
difficulty StallsSpins 1
difficulty Vulnerability 1
difficulty BlackoutsRedouts 1
difficulty RealisticGunnery 1
difficulty LimitedAmmo 1
difficulty LimitedFuel 1
difficulty CockpitAlwaysOn 1
difficulty NoOutsideViews 1
difficulty HeadShake 1
difficulty NoIcons 1
difficulty NoPadlock 1
difficulty Clouds 1
difficulty NoInstantSuccess 1
difficulty TakeoffLanding 1
difficulty RealisticLandings 1
difficulty NoMapIcons 1
difficulty NoMinimapPath 1
difficulty NoSpeedBar 1
difficulty Reliability 1
difficulty GLimits 1
difficulty RealisticPilotVulnerability 1
difficulty RealisticNavigationInstruments 1
difficulty NoPlayerIcon 1
difficulty NoFogOfWarIcons 0

or just put the above into a text file and name it "difficulty1"

(http://wiki.sturmovik.de/index.php?t...ers_Server.cmd / http://wiki.sturmovik.de/index.php?t...ulty_Parameter)

Im still trying to find all the options, above should at least be valid for 4.10m , i dont know if the dedicated server console supports help like for other commands when running , if it is , you could type "help difficulty" or "difficulty help" while running the server , have to get the 2.04m basic DS to test this.

The localip file still eludes me

EDIT: maybe we should try something like "Server commander" with the complete dedicated server, i dont think you can build a valid config that fits everyone, so just leave the readme stuff there as in the official patches, configuration of the server should be made per server anyway ?
