Running Multiplayer for FSX and P3D together

Featured Replies

Has anyone tried running one PC with FSX and one with P3D V2 and they connect mulitplayer? I've never used MP for either, so I have no experience at all. Last MP flight was WAAAY BACK in 2000 or earlier with FS98!

 

Thanks

I seriously doubt it will work. If I have FSX open and try to open P3D, it gives me an error that a flight simulator is already running and I have to shut it down first.

I have fsx on 1 desktop for the kids and P3Dv2 on mine. They are not multiplayer compatible.

It is working if you stick i.ex. to FSCloud (FSCloud.net) as multiplayer platform. They combine FSX, P3D and XPlane.

FSCloud, IVAO, VATSIM are only options for simmers using different platforms. Serwers from FSOpen are different for FSX and P3D unfortunately.

So it will work for VATSIM? YES! Thanks!
