Addressing HyperLobby to the proper IL2 folder ...

Post by :FI:Falcon » Sun Feb 08, 2009 2:54 am

Okay, I forgot how to do it ...

I copied and pasted a new copy of IL2 and applied the AAA1.1 patch. Everything works great, but HyperLobby still activates the old IL2 (AAA1.0), not the AAA1.1 version. How do I make my new copy the one HL addresses?


Thanks,

If you're already logged in into the Hyperlobby, right above the player list, press "Player Lists".
Then a drop down menu occurs.
Click "Connect / Select Game" there.
Here you find the "Disconnect" button to log out.
Do that - disconnect.

Before pressing the Connect button again, additionally pre the Shift & Ctrl button
When you then press the connect button with Shift & CTRL together, Hyperlobby will ask you for the directory your
Games is.
Lead it to your AAA1.1 folder and save that location.
Then reconnect to the Lobby.
That's it.

:)

I hope I could help you with this little tutorial.

If you have Vista, remember to open Hyperlobby with a right click and "run s administrator". Then if you change the directory and save it, it will actually save and work correctly.

You can also switch versions with the version switcher in AAA 1.1 before you launcher Hyperlobby which will then update automatically.

Hope that helps.
