Another I can't play on HyperLobby

However, it may not be HyperLobby at all, just not sure. Now my story .... I have been playing 4.09 with the old UPS (don't remember version) with nothing but success (translated to "Happy Camper". Well we (our group) decided to move up to the East side and install UPS 3.0 RC. Now in single player game I have no problem getting into it. It's just the getting our part because the EXC key is disabled for some reason. Yea, I know, see the folks who built it, I know. I've already posted there with no answer, so far.

Now we come to playing online via Hyperlobby. HyperLobby comes up just fine and it minimizes like I'm going into the game. The little pop up from UOS 3.o comes up giving me the change settings or play options. I choose play and the Box disappears. Then the box flashes back and out again and up popps HyperLobby telling me, "Good Mission" which I didn't get into incidently.

Any Ideas would be appreciated.

dunno, to me it sounds like hyperlobby did not find the correct exe.
do this: disconect from lobby and then right mouse click connect.this will bring up lobby search exe feature.Have lobby search for exe and then when its done.(should only take a minute) choose the correct exe and then save. should work now

Well several things in following up on this. First, nothing to do with HyperLobby, I had to reinstall UPS 3.0 over my first install to correct some problems. It works fine now.

And as you said BH_woodstock, I had to once again redirect HL to the exe. As I remember my first jaunt through installing in HL I did a cut and paist and it did not work. Yea, it should have, but didn't. So I let IT (HL) search for it then selected it and, yep, it works now.

UPS 3.0 still provides some huhs and whys, but IL-2 will now launch in HL.
