"New Version FlyNow! and Flight Room..."
03-29-02, 06:19z 

Greetings!

We've updated the Flight Rooms! If you've been using the any version of FlyNow!, please uninstall it (today's date is 03-29-02), it is no longer supported by the VPC.

When you join any Flight Room and click the Fly Now! button, you'll be prompted to download and install the latest version (which is 75% smaller than the previous version).

Some of the exciting changes we've made include:

1. This new version eliminate about six step that used to be required to connect to a multiplayer session.

2. This version is tied to the main VPC database, so you only need to log on once anywhere in the VPC and you'll be automatically recognized in all of the features the VPC offers (provided you accept the cookie).

3. This new version now supports joining flights in progress (as long as the original host remains in the session--a DirectX limitation--sorry).

4. We've retained our theoretical support of >256 players per flight (this is limited by the sim, not FlyNow!).

5. We've dedicated Flight Rooms for specific sims (but we have 3 rooms that'll still play any DirectX sim).

We'll be adding a new chat area (renamed "Terminal") for the Flight Rooms in the next few days so pilots can mingle before flights.

Please let us know if anyone has any problems.

We hope to see you in the skies soon!

Ben
