There are still servers running on the 4.04m patch. Make sure you get Pacific Fighters, too. It updates the graphics and adds many more maps and planes.
You can install it either as an addon to IL2 Forgotten Battles + Aces Expansion pack or just stand-alone. Its recommended that you install it with IL2FB + AE, though.Wait, is Pacific Fighters a seperate game? Or an addon pack? I thought it was a seperate game entirely :/ So if I install Pac Fighters it'll improve the graphics in IL2?

im thinking about going up to a geeforce 7600-7800 seeing as their about 100 bucks apeice nowadays...
Are you playing just PF or did you do the merge install to FB+AEP+PF?
Also, what version are you using, patched to the latest?
I think it's 4.04...
The AP in FP got changed somehow so it blacks out when you engage it while using time compression (which is what you'd do I figure, using the SP only to shorten those long flight times).
In the previous titles it would just speed up the game leaving everything visible.
If you do the merged install, it will stay this old-skool way.
Dunno if they didn't change it in PF standalone with a patch, though, since I always play merged (obviously, since the merged and unmerged are not compatible to each other).
I got 46 yesterday, it's pretty awesome. Shame I busted my hand shortly after getting it so now I can barely hold my joystick.
But yeah, it's pretty awesome. Espescially with 1600x1200, AA, and perfect landscapes.
Huh? 46 is available? Where?
Anybody know when it will hit the U.S. market?
Oh yes, it is.The box is pretty. Wish the RO box was like it.
