    Hey guys, We're hosting a multiplayer flight tonight at 9pm EST. Check out http://msflights.net for more info. You can still connect to our server via direct IP even though GameSpy is down: 1. When you click the multiplayer tab in FSX, click "Local Network (LAN)" button instead of the GameSpy option 2. Enter your name then click "Connect Directly" then enter our IP address of 67.170.81.45 then click "Find Sessions" Also join our TeamSpeak3 server for voice communications or if you have any questions: Teamspeak3 client download: http://www.teamspeak.com/?page=downloads Server Address: ks.jmainguy.com (once you load TeamSpeak3, in the top left panel click "C…

    The server descriptions don't always show up in FSX. Sometimes it will flash for a second and disappear again. This happened on my old PC and now my new laptop. I have a fresh install with all the service packs and no add-ons. Is this just the nature of the beast or is there a fix for this? Thanks for any advise, Falcon21

  4. Hope you're having a nice Saturday. And maybe there should be an SB discussion group? This is what happens in FSX och Windows 8 when I connect with SqauwkBox4 to VATSIM: I get an info frame with the message Debug Error! Program C:\- libraries\Microsoft Flight Simulator\FSX.exe Module: C:\_libraries\SquawkBox4\sbmod10.dll File: Run-Time Check Failure #3 - The variable 'pos Y' is being used without being initialized. (Press Retry to debug the application.) I press Retry ang get Fatal error. MSFS restarts. I never had this happen during my XP and FSX years. I bet there is a lot of you that know what this means, but I am at a tota…

    I have a feeling my post in the PMDG section of the forum will get deleted because I refuse to sign my 'full name' on posts, so I figured a more appropriate location for this idea would be on the multi-player forums. Anyone interested an NGX fly-in weekend?

  7. After running my FSX after a couple of days, I found other aircraft sunk in the ground 1/2 way, or stuck in the ground with their nose. It is strange, because the aircraft I fly in is ok. Fsx was always running perfect before, and after not using it for a couple of days, things seem changed or are a problem now. Do I need to re-install all my software again, or could it also be something with to extreme graphic settings? I have an I7 processor, and pc specially boosted up for FSX

    About 5 minutes ago someone mentioned on the PMDG forums that there was an expansion for the IFly 737 NG that allowed for shared cockpit. In typical but not surprising fashion, one of the PMDG mods deleted the thread. Since the thread got deleted so quickly, I wasn't able to get any info about this expansion. I looked a bit and couldn't find anything on the web, given I am on my phone and the browsing experience isn't the greatest. Anyway, does anyone know any info regarding this expansion for the IFly 737? Is it truly shared cockpit? Is it working well?Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkJB

    Hi. I am trying to get clarification from the term multiplayer. My question is: can FSX be installed on a server then played from any workstation via network connection? I have one PC and two laptops. I would like to install FSX on the PC only then connect the two laptops (via ethernet LAN cables to a router) to the PC then play FSX from the PC, without having to install FSX three times. How do I do that? Thank you.

    I am new to FSX MP and a friend and I would like to fly in the same airplane as pilot and co pilot using game spy. What airplanes can be used that will allow the NF pilot to activate all the switches while the other pilot flys the airplane. We both have the Caranado Bonanza and the PC-12 and the 737 NGX add ons and would like to use these airplanes. Can add on airplanes be used for MP, or only FSX default airplanes must be used.

    Hello; Is it possible to fly real weather with ASE in multiplayer? Does it require that all the players have ASE or only the host? I've found nothing regarding multiplayer in the documentation. Thank you

    Hi all I purchased FlyTampa Athens and its very nice, but I wanted charts too to fly it. I managed to find charts from 2010 but I can't find any more recent. Is there anyone knows where I can download or can send me 2012 charts? Otherwise I can use nDac. I prefer not to use nDac as it doesn't provide PDF and I don't want to print all one by one.. pretty bad user interface.

  17. Greetings All, For those interested, DigitalThemePark has another set of GA flights starting. The Rocky Mountains "Sawtooth" Achievement Flights are set in beautiful central Idaho. This set of flights will tour, at and below canyon rim level, the many scenic and narrow river canyons in this area, including the canyons of the Salmon and Snake Rivers. This is a bush country route. Some of the backcountry strips are extremely challenging: very short with difficult approaches. This calls for your best bush plane. The RealAir Scout, the Carenado C185, the Sibwings Birddog would be good mounts. You will need a plane that can take off and land in strips of as littl…

  18. I am going to maintain a list of tips for anybody that wants to host a fsx multi-player session. The up to date list can be found here. http://www.fsopen.co.uk/downloads/fshost/#tips Currently the list is. Use a dedicated machine with fsx to be a host. Host using a control tower as this consumes less resources then a plane. Use the standard ports of 6112 to 6122. There is no reason to change them and fsopen server ony supports this range anyway. The only inbound changes to your router's firewall or antivirus software firewall is to allow UDP 6112 to 6122. Another reason not to change from the defaults. If you don't do this your session will be…

    How would a feature like this even be implemented without some sort of server network thing. Then add vatsim to complicate the equation. I am now skeptical this feature will ever be properly implemented. Or can some technical minded person enlighten on the reality.

Like, I am joining a server with 20 people on it, And I set my role to Air traffic controller, and I press :join server, it doesnt load, and fsx doesnt works anymore.. When I play on my hosted server as a Air traffic controller everything works fine.. I hope you know the answer! Greats, Daan

    I hope I don't offend anyone by publicising our VA on here, but I thought it worth mentioning to like minded pilots who fly shared cockpit. We launched Eclipse at the start of June and have distinguished ourselves from other VAs in a number of ways, one if which is our commitment to support shared cockpit flights. I'm the CEO and an RAF pilot, the reason I got back into flight sim was to teach a friend how to fly, and when we decided we wanted more direction to our flying we tried to find a VA that supported shared cockpit. We couldn't find one so created our own! We offer something different from any other VA we've found, you can find out more by watching…
