Hi
I would like to be able to install 2 copies of hyperlobby to my pc. the reason for this is due to mod installs and the fact that some servers check for mod files installed. I want to be able to run one with mods and one without mods. The problem is that when I try to install the second copy of hyperlobby it wants to install it into program files directory. Is there another way to tell it where to install HL. |

Yep, it's impossible to install multiple hyper lobbies.
You can run multiple hyper lobbies, but you can only install one.

Nothing is Impossible.
I have looked through the rules and found nothing wrong or illegal about having several HL progams or names.
I use different accounts and names for different games here, and or HL skins.
You can do it by partitioning your harddrive and install it on the different partitions, or run a slave drive or two. Just install it on your slave drives before installing on your master drive. I have 3 drives on my computer.
For different names its the same thing.
Good luck

When you install, re install or, what ever you only set the registry
for one installation.
I will give you guys a hint, you do not need to install HL to multiple hard drives
to run multiple lobbies at once.
No need for partitions, no need at all. You don't even need to do more than one install.
It is not illegal to have multiple names or run multiple HL's.
I am not posting instructions on how to do it because there are
a few idiots who have used this technique for harassment purposes.

You gave him good advise on how to waste a lot of time and get nowhere.

Hi
I am not sure how to link it into two games of IL2-1946. I have a clean copy of the game and a mod but I am not sure how to specify the path into IL2 as it is already specified to go to 1 start up path when connecting to a flight server. Can you have multiple paths set? If not do you need to change the path and how do you do that? |

Next issue. I found out how to reset the IL2fb.exe file to the one I want but I am still getting a russian menu start up screen when I am running the clean game. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated besides re-installing the games as I want to be able to play both mod allowed forums and clean forums. |
