    Dear All,I am organising a shared cockpit full multi-crew VATSIM group flight session along with other Virtual Airlines. We will be flying from London to Innsbruck and back to start the day, then doing a couple of UK hops, amassing to 9 flights in total on Saturday and 10 flights in total on Sunday. We will be using a combination of the Aerosoft Airbus A320 family (NOT Professional version, unless you find someone else with P3D v4 who flies it) and the Majestic Q400 (remember you must have at least the Professional version for the shared cockpit function to work)I will attach a more in depth schedule showing the timings, flight numbers etc. All flights will be flown on th…

    Hi there! Lately I am quite interested in flying the Aerosoft busses in Shared Cockpit. I have done it last year within our German virtual airline, but not with as much skill as I would like. My newest idea concerned expanding my horizon a bit more and doing SC with someone from another country. Today I was looking for websites on which I could possibly find someone like that. OVPA came up there. So I started the Ventrilo download to see if someone was online on their voice server, but the program cannot find the given adress. The homepage, which I found, also seems to have expired. Since @Dave is very active here and belongs to OVPA I guess I made some sort of er…

    Hi there, I've downloaded Desk Pilot some days ago to share my cockpit with a friend. Since the stock FSX multiplayer went offline, we downloaded LogMeIn Hamachi and Join FS to connect each other. We were able to connect but, when we start the two programs above and Desk Pilot the two airplanes are not "synchronized". I mean, when I start the push-back, my friend's aircraft remains stop, and only few switches are synchronized and my co-pilot is the only person that can control all the switches of the cockpit by using Desk Pilot (first officer) insted, I repeat, when the captain selects some some switches, only few of them are synchronized. I've r…

  5. As title states. Looking to do this. Able to get it to the point where I can have the people on the JoinFS server see the FSX Multiplayer traffic, but am having trouble getting it going the the other way. Any ideas?

  7. Good evening, So a friend of mine is tempted to buy the Aerosoft professional as me and him would love to use the connected flight deck feature, however, I have heard that the servers are down or something like that and mixed comments on it, I just really want a clear answer now, if he buys it will he be able to connect to the same flight deck as me? Thanks and regards, Joe.

  9. I don't know where about to post this regards FScloud but this is regards model matching and ways to add more aircraft to the list that I have installed on my FSX. I just can't get it to work out when added aircraft to the AllPlanes.txt file so that when FScloud is open and then I can add others to whatever aircraft it needs to be. Like the carenado TBM 850. Last night FScloud was messing my mind up when I was shown up as an bout or another aircraft and to the point that it sis not show me up as I was in a bristol bulldog. There should be an easy why to add more aircrafts!

  11. Me and my friend really want to do a shared cockpit on vatsim, but none of us know how to fly airbus planes, or md-11 or any of that. We only know how to fly Boeing planes. So we wanna fly shared cockpit on that. Does it exist a single Boeing aircraft that is capable of doing this? Or is every Boeing aircraft incapable of doing shared cockpit? Also one more thing, how can me and my friend connect to each other? Ill rather not use my ip and hamachi and all that to do shared cockpit. Because that is too complex and dangerous for my computer. However I want him to easily join my airplane and we can fly together. Like a game kinda, If there doesn’t exist any software or airpl…

    Hi, on SimMarket they sell something called DeskPilot, which appears to be a software where i can have my friend as my first officer online. So my questions: does anyone have any experience With how this Works and if its compatible With the Pmdg 737-8 NGX. And if it Works so that my friend can sit at home and i can sit at my home and we can fly together. That would be sooo cool. Any comments is greatly appreciated. Thanks! 😄

  13. Hello Me and my friend want to have a shared cockpit where i am the captain and he is the first Officer. We are flying the pmdg 737-800 NGX on vatsim. Is it possible to have shared cockpit online, so that he can sit at his home on his pc and fly in the same plane as me and switch buttons and stuff. Is that possible? In that case, what is the software called and how do i set it up. Thank you so much for Your time. - Philip

    Hi, so I just installed the boxed edition of FSX so me and my friend can do shared cockpit (He doesn't have steam). We both have the gold edition + the acceleration pack installed. So I made my own LAN server, portfowarded it and all that good stuff, and he can join the session and get into the cockpit with me. But every time I (I'm the host) do something in the cockpit it takes a good three minutes for it to show up for him. Yet when he does something it shows up almost instantly for me. Does anybody know why this could be? Thanks.

  15. Hello, Me and a friend have been flying the Majestic Q400 quite extensively in Shared Cockpit over the past few weeks. We're thinking of trying out deskpilot for the PMDG 737. Their website seems to have gone down so we can't access any documents or guides. Can someone who has used Deskpilot before share some tips for using it ? What works/what doesnt ? Regards 9W

  16. Hi all, some might know about the (completely free) FSCloud.net multiplayer system (http://fscloud.net). It is supposed to work with FSX and P3D, bringing together all of them in one multiplayer system. We are always happy about more users experiences regarding the FSCloud per se as well as the APPs you can startup from within (like Human ATC app, Groupflight, World Tour, ...). The client is easy to use: Download - Install - Start FSX or P3D in freeflight mode at some gate - Start the FSCloud, that's it. You will be able to see other players' planes nearby and fly together with them (or do your own flights). It's best to deactivate AI airtraffic for not mixing up…
