Simviation Forums

I keep seeing and answering the same question in the multiplayer forums "How do I connect to a multiplayer session?" and its varients. Most of the time the answer is fairly straight forward... Router/LAN/Firewall problems.

The above question was my first one on thse forums and no one seemed to be able to give me any definitive answers. I found out for myself and managed by trial and error, but thats me ....
Might I suggest that in the Multiplayer forums there is a sticky enlightening people on the various ways of connecting to sessions. This sticky should also include the list of ports that need to be opened/redirected for connections through routers/firewalls. The basics of port redirection and links to connection software such as FSHost etc. This would give everyone a point of reference and hopefully make things less daunting for "newbies".

I am quite willing to write the sticky and take any questions that arise from it.

I just need to know wether it would be acceptable and wanted.

Eno if you can write it I'll sticky it.
The only thing is each version of FS has its own solutions, and problems...
It'll be a big job, but if you feel up to it

Ok .......... I'll get something sorted during the next few days
