Mulituser info

[Guest n9zn]

I know that MicroSoft has discontinued multiuser for FS9 which is a shame since I just bought the package. Happily as of now I like the package (FS9) better than the new FSX version.Does anyone know how I can set up FS9 to do multi player over the net with others? I mean since Microsoft discontinued Multiplayer the (normal?) way it was set up as FS9 comes out of the box?Thanks!Monty HowardN9ZN

oops i forgot to ask what FSHOST is?Remember I am new as a baby's tail end to FS simming and I bet you probably think I am just about as stinky too. <--- (Attempt at humor please forgive me LOL)If you could be so kind as to explain this to me I sure would appreciate it. With that little bit of info I might be able to figure out how this all works. Right now I honestly don't know how to do multiplayer with FS9 however I sure do need a flight instructor or at least someone to fly with who can remind me to read the manual again. :-)ThanksMonty HowardNew simmer in Tampa

Here ya go: http://www.chocolatesoftware.com/fshost/FSX works a bit different from FS9 in that you need to have the client installed as I just found out. In FS9, if you have the IP, you can connect directly to the server.

Thanks for the info I forgot I ask in this post where and how to make it work. Maybe when I get used to these boards that will help.Thanks again,Monty
