PF is not listed as a game. Choose Forgotten Battles in the "Connect/Select Game" list and log into that lobby. On the left a list will pop up with all the current games running. When you click on a game, you get informatin about that game. Look for the version of PF you are running (3.04, 3.03m etc). There are always many games I can log into. Be aware that folks try to keep their games up to date so you should patch up to the latest version.

Hope this helps.

I have a question. I also have PF stand alone and want to play online. When I go to FB server it wants to look for FB exe which I do not have. What do I need to do type in the PF exe and then save in order to play online? Also how do you know waht games are for PF in the lised games on the left in game field. Any Help on this?

You must rename pf.exe to il2fb.exe and redirect hl to the new path.There is only 1 pf standalone server in HL.

I did change the exe file and it does work. But to get the full effect of hyperlobby playing with WW11 flight simms I went ahead and got the gold pack so I will have all 3 to be able to join all games with no hassle and should have it in a few days up and running. I am not new to flight sims I flew for yrs With Dragons- Shadow in the old F-22 lighting 3 sim. Also I will be looking for a squad to hook up with in the near future,,,,,,,

When you get FB and AEP and merge them with PF the exe in the main folder will be il2fb.exe.So there will be no need to rename anything for HyperLobby.You will however need to tell HL where the merged IL2fb.exe is located.You can have both installs(merged and standalone) on your machine and play both in HL.You just have to tell HL which path when you connect.

The "exe" is understood as the extension not part of the name.So it is il2fb.exe not il2fb.exe.exe.
