Help with Hyperlobby game path issues - Sun_Ra - 19.01.2009
I have installed the unified installer ver 1.0 and it works fine off line. Having trouble getting Hyperlobby to launch the desired game version. Thsi is what I do: Connect to Hyperlobby and press Ctrl+Shift this prings up the different paths to choose from to launch the game but it doesn't seem to work for me. My game doesn't start when I try to connect to a server that has the same version I have previously entered in the Hyperlobby path search box. What am I doing wrong here?
Could someone please give me the correct steps to to join through Hyperlobby. Would like to try out the mods and I really only fly on line.

Sounds like you're 90% there. When you do the ctrl-shift-"connect" to bring up the .exe path search, you can type in (or paste in) the path you'd like HL to search through for the il2fb.exe file. Once it finds the correct .exe file for your modded install, select it and continue with log-in. Then leave it alone (assuming UI installation and not sound mod or other earlier mod flavor). Use the switcher app to move back and forth between versions as necessary depending on which server you're joining.
/edit/ Been a while since I've had to do that, but it may be an issue where HL is looking for "il2.exe" and not "il2fb.exe". If that's the case, simply copy your "il2fb.exe", then rename the copy to "il2.exe". Re-run HL's search function.
