When I am flying with another player and I get close to the other plane it starts jumping around all over the place, Is it my system or? Somrtimes the other players show up as other aircraft then what they are flying, Can I do anything to fix this?
Thanks
Greg

As to seeing correct aircraft, if you don;t have the EXACT same plane installled in your aircraft folder...and named exactly the same way..... the sim will either match it up with what it THINKS is the closes similar aircraft (usually with laughable results like a "hovering C172) or will display the same aircraft YOU are flying.

Only way to prevent it is the agree on what add-on aircraft are to be used beforehand...and have everyone install them.  Or to limit multiplayer to the MS default aircraft.

best,

PS:  Hopefully FSX will have addressed this problem.
