Hi Sam....

Just had a quick peek, but your use of the word "Complex" regarding the program worries me a bit... :'(...!

LOL... ;D...!

The thing I adore... :-*...about Sam's Server is it's simplicity, reliability, and ease of use.... ;)...!

Anything more complicated than just "Press to Connect" generally baffles me.... :'(...!

At the moment my FS Navigator nicely covers the RADAR function in Sam's Server Multiplayer....;)...!
...and Teamspeak is an option (which I don't use, 'cos I like typing...:P...)....!
LOL...!

Will keep an eye on the new program to see how it goes...;)...!

Cheers...!

Paul....G-BPLF.... 8)...!

I got it working with a little help from Tweek and it wasn't particularly difficult to setup, and that's coming from me and my PC doesn't 'agree' with multiplayer!

Just one thing. Do you know if smoke systems are supported with FSInn? I'd see screenshots of the Patrouille de France Virtuelle on the FSInn site, and they appeared to be showing smoke.

It didn't work for me and Heathaze, though. :-[

Some further notes. Just found this english description
for IBNetPlayer
http://www.ibirdsoft.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=166
might be worth taking a closer look !!

@Flymo: FSHostClient Beta 3 offers a lot of new features similar to FSInn like linking to Teamspeak channels,
A much smoother display of aircrafts, animated surfaces like flaps, airbrakes, canopy and others. It also supports smoke systems !! Unfortunaly all these features only work for FSX Users.

C R I K E Y chaps, you are making life so b.....y complicated.

I tried it and is horrendous; perhaps would be interesting to have a go & master it, with TONS of help I might add.

BUT really........
Using the present Sam's system is reminiscent of flying in the 50s, happy go lucky, in skies free and easy from ATC restrictions and traffic, and now this FSinn full of restrictions, laws and b....s....t plus all the other modern equipment complecations, like todays real world flying.

Could please, the ones who wish so, be able to stick to the present system, and let the others go their way?

Thank you.

I trust you gave the manual a read through, which does make it very simple! ;)

As for all the rules, only on certain networks such as VATSIM. There are servers which are free for all, such as the FSFBT server.

We had a FSInn server running for tests during the weekend.
For the moment we will not offer this service for several reasons.

1. The software did not run as expected for every User.
   In my case I installed FSInn for FS2004 and FSX.
   With FSX I could connect without a problem. With FS2004 the
   connection options were missing.
   The same happend to two other Users who were using FSX.
   So some people were not able to connect at all.
   We searched their forums. It looks like other people have these problems, too.

2. xabbu and me were finally able to get onto the server with FSX.
   The implementation into FSX seems to be in a quite early stage.
   You have to assign an aircraft to each player or he will not show up.
   This would be a great feature but you only have 3 default aircraft
   to select from. The so called VIP low-poly aircraft packages from their website
   also don

reading what sam has written thier looks like FSFDT have changed their product significantly for FS2004 which sucks, when i started useing it, FSINN was basicly a brilliant add on MP client for virtualy lag fre flying, now its blockng fshost server that sucks!!! im sticking with default if thats the case.
