I had no time to try this, but I think it could work if you took system DLLs from Windows and put them inside Wine tree, so that they would be used instead of Wine "substitutions".

Thanks ZaltysZ,

i will try this.

I know for sure that 4.08m works with CRT=2 on Wine. I don't know will 4.09m work because I didn't test it.

Hello,

Follow this is how-to if you want to setup IL-2 4.09m CRT=2 server.

a) You will need msvcrt.dll from Windows 2003 server system32 folder, copy that file to wine system folder (probably ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32)
b) start winecfg
* Apllication tab - add il2server.exe and set windows version to Windows 2003
* Libraries tab - add DLL override for msvcrt and set to native

This is all job you need to set dedicated server to be CRT=2 (don't forget to add checkRuntime=2 to [Net] section from confs.ini)

If you want to play game from Linux using wine and be able to join CRT=2 servers use same approach but on Apllication tab - add il2fb.exe

I have test CRT=2 server running @ crosquadron.com:21040
