    Go to the store and get the Aces Expansion Pack... that will bring you up to FB2.0.. (Well worth the $29 if you are in the US) then go to the UBI site and DL two patches.. 2.01 and 2.04. Go to the link in my sig Stturmovik Essentials... it is an invaluable source of info for this sim. Welcome aboard.

    Like Bearcat said Ace Expansion Pack is great and then you won't need to download 1.22 patch for FB.

    AEP will kick the version right to 2.0 AND you will have many more planes

    Drawback is no-one uses 2.0... You will need to download 2 other patches then (2.01 102MByte and 2.04 20MByte), so you still would be downloading about 8 hours...

    IF you decide to download DO use a download accelerator, search for DAP or FlashGet at www.download.com (if you loose connection this will let you re-sume the download).

    Maybe someone will burn and send you the patches by mail. Do you live in Europe? If so, email me at lil.labbit@gmail.com, and i'll send you the patches by mail

    Yes I live in Europe but I think it was a litle bit silly question, (forgive me) cause you shoud know it by my name. It whoud be great to send me a 1.22 patch but I wish to know that how big is that patch (1.22)?

    For Forgotten Battles there are two games...

    FB Stand-Alone (2 CD's) --> This is V1.0
    You must get and install Patch122_over10.exe 116MByte

    then these is AEP (Also called ACE) that's FB + one extra CD (see your game shop) --> This is V2.0

    You now don't need V1.22 patch... but you need
    patch2_aep_201.exe (Patch 2.01 102MByte) AND aep_patch204.exe (Patch 2.04 19.7 MByte) and install these in-order First 2.01 THEN 2.04

    Online play is V1.22 for stand-alone FB
    and V2.04 for FB+AEP

    UBI says either 2.0 (correct) or 2.01 (mostly incorrect) online in game lobby ...

    SO

    FB Patch 1.22 --> 116MByte
    AEP Patch 2.01 + 2.04 --> 122MByte

    SOME later FB / AEP versions have the patches on CD --- check that first...

    You can find ALL patches at http://www.3dgamers.com/games/il2sturmovik2/downloads/

    ... and I don't believe everything what I see on the Internet - you could have moved to a different continent for all I know and have chosen your name for sentiment's sake

    But I need it because I don't have the AEP and in the lobby the most of the servers are 1.22 so this is why I ask for that. Do you understand?

    Sure I understand - still download (with accelerator - see above) is the quickest way...

    Would be about 8 hours...

    It's dark already, Post Office is closed, and it would take 2-3 days to Hungary (at least) by mail I believe

    LOL will 100+MByte go into your e-mail box??

    I don't think so...

    Even if it did - then you'd have to download from you ISP's e-mail server - that would take just as long as 3dgamers - maybe even longer

    I mean your REAL address (Street/number/city/country) so I could burn the patches on CD and send them to you by regular (mailman) mail (also called snail mail)

    Send that address to lil.labbit@gmail.com and I'll burn it on a CD and send it to you
