Thanks for the replies, I attempted to use the builder without reading the guide.
Not as user friendly as I hoped so Its going to be a bit of reading of that guide I think! Thanks for the link.
Myself and friends host the server on our machines and play the game at the same time, It seems to be lag free and pretty responsive.
I'm currently downloading the "Ultr@pack V2.0"

Anything I should watch out for upon install?

if you have 1.8 installed already and have added stuff to the mods folder it will get wiped out. If you want the stuff in your mods folder you must either copy it to some other location or cut and paste it somewhere else. JSGME should also have all mods deactivated, so everything on the left side before you install.

I've not used this before, I take it theres some sort of Mod Switching application that comes with it that tells IL2, What to load and what not to load upon loading?
Once its downloaded I'll go all out and see what works and what doesnt :-)
I'm using IL2 4.09 at the moment.
