Hello Multiplayer Chums!... biggrin.gif ...!

Slowly, over a period of time, our FS Host Flight Sim Servers seem to be disappearing from the FS Host Multiplayer list!

Worlds Serious Pilots (WSP) 66.90.73.187...has long gone!...

Simviation (Sim V) 178.63.253.134...not appearing for some time now!...

..and now...

INSpire 203.114.130.15..... for the NZ Multiplayer flights...seems to be lost without trace!

The individual IP addresses can still be logged-onto in Multiplayer Sessions, but they no longer appear in the real-time, updated, FS Host list, (FS Host Spy) to show who is on-line, minute-by-minute!

Is there any way that the Host Servers can be reminded to place them back in the FS Host list again?

The FS Host Spy list is always a useful way to check who is in line..to join in a session!

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 seven come eight years lost track with the old so maybe they are doing the same .

We could always try something out during this time in the morn .. still only re-installing FS9 but may give you an chance to try settings out .

Hello Ian....

For all we FS 2002 and FS 2004 Multiplayers, FS Host has served us well, and still serves us admirably for all our flight sessions....
..and following the demise of "Gamespy", "FS Host Client" using "FS Host" has filled the gap for FSX Pilots!

Most of the FS 2002, FS 2004, and FSX Pilots, mostly use "FS Host" now, for all their sessions, all around the World!
..it works a treat!
