Sancho Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: "Europe Multiplayer Test" 12-13-01, 16:15z  This is a 90 percent announcement and a 10 percent question. I propose a Fly_Now multiplayer session suitable for European time zones. However, I am a beginner at VPC and inexperienced with FS multiplayer using the INTERNET. I would like to try and this and see what happens. This what I propose: On Saturday, December 15, 2000zulu, I am going to launch a "game" and anyone who wants to join is welcome. Here is some help: At 2000zulu it is: 2100h in Munich, Berne and all places in those countries 8 pm in Heathrow, Ponterfact, Dean Forest, Manchester and all places in the UK 4 pm in Breezie Point, New York, Ft. Lauderdale and Miami 3 pm at Meigs Field, Chicago 1 pm in Glendale and San Luis Obispo (KSBP) I will launch a FS 2002 "game" called "test" (no password). I'll be waiting at the foot of the tower of KSBP, facing S, in the standard Cessna C182RG Skylane. This aircraft has the tail number HB-OWV in memory of my first solo flight in a Piper L4. My call sign will be "Sancho". I don't know anything about KSBP, but I do know that there will be helpful members to come to my rescue if I crash in the nearby hills. If I execute WINIPCFG.EXE (in Windows) after connecting, I will know what my IP address is, but I don't know how to communicate this info to other players who might want to join. Maybe our VPC staff can put out an addendum and corrections to my plan if necessary. Happy landings. Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

I was thinking about down under, including Japan, but thought that for a first try, I would stay within convenient European Zones. However, I would like to fly with you.

If the test is at 2000z, then the US times are the ones you indicate. Thank you for the correction. Happy landings Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Detlef Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 7. "RE: Europe Multiplayer Test" 12-15-01, 17:40z  Hi Sancho, just before canceling my Compuserve account I checked my e-mails there and found yours regarding the MP session. I am sorry I am so late here. Please remember my new e-mail address is detlef.reusner@t-online.de I cannot join the MP session today and also I am still learning to fly again with this FS2002. I must use much more key presses now than I was used to with my CH product throttle and stick working. I see you have found a good method to annouce the MP session. So good luck. I hope a lot pilots will join in. Good flying, Detlef Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
