Server: Wild Weasel
You will need VNAO RC3 mod, but you do not need to be a member of VNAO to fly on this server.

This may be old news but it is possible to have game sounds through speakers and ventrilo on headset without a USB headset as all the web sites I looked at stated. No special soundcard, just the one on the motherboard.

I had this problem. It was caused when I used modman to uninstall a mod. The problem is modman sometimes does not remove something. In my case it was a plane folder in: LockOn Flaming Cliffs 2\Config\Input\Aircrafts\my_plane\. As soon as I deleted the folder, pause again works.
I had the same problem. If you only see a few servers, you are not patched. I uninstalled game, reinstalled and downloaded patch again to be sure I did not have a bad file. Then it worked correctly.
