QUOTE (SeanTK @ Feb 18 2014,6:30 AM) I haven't flown online in quite a while, and I know that the FSX internal (Gamespy) multiplayer service has been shut down for a couple years now. With that being said, does anyone know if an ability to do a "shared cockpit" flight still works? I know that shared cockpit didn't usually work with more complex aircraft, but I imagine if there is still a way to do it, it would be quite fun.... Sean , Yes it still works tho it dose not work in the most complex A2A or PMDG for example I did have it working in CaptainSim 737. The...

Well I bin clocking up dozens of hrs in MP .... but just use the "out of the box" Fsx multiplayer setup. Servers..... well we either host ourselves, or use one of the 2 DTP(Digital Theme Park) servers, one of which is set to UTC the other at UTC -8 DTP also provide TS3 and have given us our own (OZx Flying Club) dedicated channel for comms. Checking if anyone is online........ easy These two maps show it all I would be great to get some trans tasman sessions going in the new year. Cheers TonyM

I'm available this week for a flight, I have Tacpac as well if you're up for a mission etc. Check your pms.

I must say that the bug+ tacpac is one plane you must add to your collection

I had to try a few times to log on. Never a problem running a MP here .. simply say hey YO .. MP and away we go , Team Speak3 , best way to go is what we do here for a quick start flight .

QUOTE (deeknow @ May 22 2013,5:47 PM) Hey Rad, so did you fly that Nadi leg online on the weekend on VATSIM? I was trying to keep an eye out for you. Yup, Air Frawns (France) 516. A 744 from Noumea and then a A321 from Nadi.

QUOTE (Ian Warren @ May 9 2013,11:48 PM) With the changes across the board in regard to multiplay its been many years since i tried in FS9 or the server link posted , back in those days i had 3 PCs two running and inter-reacting with each other thus had my flight .. the CT and my comm's ... FSX changed the rules after their SP1/2 upgrades , come in very handy during a MP airshow .. Today or last six months back multiplays were shutdown with the Gamespy connection , no tech failing .. just simply the plug was pulled , there are other sites or your own IP settups , course with me...

Cool /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif /> I just don' think I'll have time (and likely knowledge!) to do any proper commercial stuff but it might be useful for the controllers and other guys that are flying the routes to have to contend with a bit of circuit traffic etc...It'll be a good excuse to brush up my radio telephony!

QUOTE (Ian Warren @ Mar 26 2013,3:17 AM) Most all and previous MPs were spur of the moment , chatted on TS .. and the lot of us simply said "Lets Fly".... seems the organized go at it appear to be the least responsive .... and not sure why It is a fact that most of we FS Host Flyers like to join in the Sessions just for the fun of exploring, and not take anything too seriously (Chat Window often preferred for simplicity)! Example: Someone says; "Hey Guys Chaps! How about a short trip from "here" to "there" at 7PM GMT/2PM EST, next Saturday...

Ooo Ooo Ooo ... now do we have enough different paints for the Libbies ... just would not be right running Forts on this trip /unsure.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :unsure: border= 0 alt= unsure.gif />

I flew the routes for this weekend's SNO tonight and it definitely does show off some of the best scenery in our airspace. For the record, I did NZWN -> NZDN -> NZWN with the A320 in approximately 2hr 45m (including a half hour turn around in Dunedin), so if you're wanting to complete both legs with ATC on Sunday, you'll want to make sure you get underway before half eight. The sim was set to around 1930 NZDT when I departed Dunedin, which resulted in a fantastic sunset as I tracked north through Canterbury, reaching Wellington just after dark. If I was doing it again,...

Well I reckon MP is still alive and well. Here is a screen grab of our Teamspeak channel, in use last night. A flight with Wellington Tower being manned in nasty weather, low cloud, rain and strong gusting winds. Flying GA single and twin aircraft from places like Blenheim, Christchurch, and Nelson As the list flags show all from Australia, except one (Bruce) from UK. But there are several from NZ, who join in on some nights. While the tower was not quite up to Vatsim/IVAO standards, it still makes for an entertaining evening. Cheers TonyM
