The multiplayer is easy. Go down to the multiplayer section of the forums and use Simviation's multiplayer server. Just enter the IP and you are ready. If gets really populated in the afternoon GMT time when there are tours on the weekends. Wink

To clarify that a little bit.........

Even if you are NOT using a router........ lock your frames to 20 fps.  

This assures that the data transfer rate does not bog down the connection, particularly for the slowest data rate player connected, and hence affect gameplay.

best,

Ok guys thanks 4 the IP, i got into the multiplayer, but nobody was playing, so while on the server i just did a flight from Jeffco, Colorado to grand Junction in a PMDG B1900D in Central mountain air ivery  (Ive been in many small planes with many airlines, even though im only 13, and Central Mountain air's service is the BOMB!) (My friend who lives down the street owned a copy of the PMDG B1900D and he uses FSX cuz he has a high speed comp  Sad and he gave me his copy of b1900d! Smiley)

Does anyone even use this server anymore?

I use it alot, and so do others, timing is the big thing. Mostly on the weekends is when you will see the most activity.

  Another good idea is to post some kind of anoucement here about when and where you will be flying to let others know about it. And read others announcements on when and where they will be flying. Wink

It's also good to check here :

Server Status Page (To see who´s currently online)
http://cockpit.netfrag.org:8090/

I'm usually on in the early mornings and late evenings est. time US.
Hope to see you up there. Smiley
