Briefly examining the files of 4.08m, 4.08m Server and 4.09b1m, plus a server install up to 4.07m Server shows that the following 4.09b1m files can be used for the server:
fb_maps15.SFS
il2_core.dll
il2_corep4.dll, though it has to be renamed il2_coreP4.dll to overwrite the old file
mg_snd.dll
DO NOT use mg_snd_sse.dll as this caused severe problems with 4.09b1m, use the old version in 4.08m Server installation.
The 4.09b1m files fb_3do19.SFS, fb_3do20.SFS and files.SFS need equivalents fb_3do19server.SFS, fb_3do20server.SFS and filesserver.SFS- the latter overwrites the 4.08m filesserver.SFS. Unfortunately, it is not a simple matter of renaming the files as their sizes alone suggest significant differences. 4.08m fb_3do18.SFS is 15.581 kb while fb_3do18server.SFS is only 1.288 kb. Ditto for files.SFS (21.923 kb) and filesserver.SFS (18.807 kb).
These would have to be opened and examined to discover the differences, then the 4.09b1m files modified accordingly. Question is, are these server versions simply stripped versions of the client files, or do they contain something totally different??????????? With thousands of subfiles in these SFS files this will take a lot of time.
