IL2 2.04 or 3.04

~S~ All

Here is a way to allow you to have both the IL2 2.04 and IL2 3.04 games at the same time.

1st: make a new folder and name it IL2204bu (Backup) and copy your IL2 2.04 game there. Note this folder can be anywhere just remember where ya put it. Hehe. I put mine in my Addon folder where I store all my game related files.

2nd: Go ahead and add the PF merge to your original IL2 2.04 game to create IL2 3.04

3rd: You can create a short cut leading to your backup copy of 2.04. Here the path that leads to mine. ""C:\Documents and Settings\********\My Documents\addons\IL2\IL2aepbu\IL-2 Sturmovik Forgotten Battles\il2fb.exe""

4th: Ok now ya have both copies of the game and your heading to HL how do you select the version you want? Bring up HL, Before you click on connect hold down the Ctrl/shift keys, then click on Connect. This will bring up a menu asking for the "Path" of the version you want to play. Insert the path of the 2.04 or 3.04 version and click Ok. Note this path will stay active until you change it. There is no need to do this every time.

Clear as Mud??? Chances ya take when I've only had one cuppa coffee. Any questions give a shout out.

Thank you very much, T.J.

I'll try out point 4 - I didn't know of this possibility, and honestly was wondering how to do in such a case.
