I think i have solved my problem.

I had a single corrupt file in my installation (it was my second installation as the original files had lots of corruptions), it was the PDF with details of the Burma map contained within the _DOCS_ folder. However as i was able to join servers with CRT=2 with no trouble i thought nothing of it. However i read somewhere that any corrupt file might cause problems.

So i wnet away and used Winrar to test the UI 1.2 files that I had used in my installation (as described at the start of the UI 1.2 downlaod thread) and found that the corrupt file was in pack 1.7.

I then downloaded 1.7 again and replaced the 1.7 in my installation. I then did the Winrar test again and got no problems.

I then just copied the burma map pdf file into the _DOCS_ folder and tried a server again. Unfortunatly it wasnt running a map with a stock spitfire (the spits that where failing CRT=2 for me), but it did have the modded Spit XIV and that caused no problems. I will test it again with a stock spit when I can but i think i have a totally uncorrupted setup now and it appears to work

Moral of the story. Dont have any corrupt files or you may fail CRT=2.

I ran the Winrar test and in par 2 to par 8 and in all the folders i was getting the same corrupt fire messages:

MODS\_DOCS_\ BurmaLower_readme.pdf is corrupt

MODS\ P38F-1-LO\3do\Plane\ P38F-1-LO (Multi)\Keel1_D3.msh is corrupt

MODS\ P51D-25NA\3do\Plane\P51D-25NA(GB)\Keel1_D3.msh is corrupt


Does this mean i will need to download all those files again ???
