22/09/05 Multiplayer

[Mynameisnemo]

Ok guys,

Just wondering if anyone will be up for a multiplayer on thursday Night at around 8pm (gmt) or around 2am(gmt)? flying from Birmingham EGBB to Heathrow, the flying time should be around 30 - 40 mins using GA aircraft,

If possible and is free at the time we will be using the WSPilots 23456 Yellowstone server but not to sure about Voice Comms at the moment,

if any one wants to suggest a different area to fly feel free.

nemo,

Just get the freeware Teamspeak program and install it for voice comms.  Then log onto the WSPilots' flight server and type "?TS" into the chat box... and you'll get the setup info for connecting teamspeak to the server.  It is simple.

best,

I couldnt make it last time, but I hope I will be able to make it this time.

Teamspeak is a great suggestion for voice comm.

I'd be keen to give it a go at the 8pm slot, I'll have to book the time with the social secretary and let you know.

You'll have to be patient. I'm more of a CFS3 person and am new to fs2004. Navigation tends to be of the "need to head south, which one's the compass" variety.

Steve,

When flying with a group, as long as SOMEONE is good at navigation....... you just have to play "follow the leader" after that person.

In that situation... a TACAS system installed that works online would be VERY helpful so you can see aircraft around you on the radar.

Best solution is to program in the planned flight plan on the GPS system before you depart..... then you can always pull that up to track your exact position.

If you were planning on joining into this online flight..........

Since this message thread kinda' got all messed up....... and we are not sure it is all fully straightened out yet....... I'd just plan on looking on the WSPilots 23456 flight server at the appropriate times for some of the SimV folks showing up at the aforementioned airport and times.

Might see you there.

best,

I have just (Wednesday afternoon EST) heard from Nemo... he is having some computer issues at he moment.

[Mynameisnemo]

John,

Thanks for Passing the message on for me,

The flight Plan for tommorrow Night is EGBB (Birmingham) to EGLL (Heathrow) and is roughly going to take around 40mins to complete, its still on for the G.A aircraft aswell. Starting at 8:00 pm (GMT) and then later on in the evening at 2:00am (GMT)

I should be flying Either Bill Lyons PA23 or a Cessna 172

Nemo ........... Glad to be Back.............

[Mynameisnemo]

Just a little update, The Flight is still on for tonight @ 8:00pm and the flight plan is still the same ! ! !.

Anyone who would like to join is welcome to,

The IP address for tonights hop is 66.147.177.125 , and My Tail number will either be G-N3MO or N-21EMO,

Hope to see you there,

Nemo

Still hoping to join, but looking a bit doubtful.

Just to check though. Are we talking 8pm GMT (i.e. actually 9pm UK time, UK time is currently BST, British Summer Time, GMT +1), or 8pm BST which is 9pm CET?

And if you're confused, it's taken me a day and a half to figure out the question.

If it helps I am writing this at 12.08 BST which is currently GMT +1. In Paris it will be 13.08.

Steve,

I'll be online at 8:00pm tonight if you have FShostspy look for G-Nemo and that will be me.
I'm writing this reply at 3:18pm which just over 4hours 30mins, I forgot that we were still in BST in england *Doh*.

Nemo

[JBaymore]

Ah............. so it is being hosted on YOUR loca machine... not on the WSPilots flight server!

OK.

If for some reason we can't connect to your machine... do you want to move the location to the WSP server as a "backup" plan?

best,

I'm still having trouble with the hosting on my machine john,

The I.P is the WSPilots Server (yellowstone) , hopefully it'll be sorted soon so i'll hosting it properly.

Nemo

>............ Still trying to get my machine to host .................

Thanks Nemo,

unfortunately having recently received the itinerary for tonight I may not now be able to make it.

I will see what I can do but don't hang on for me.

In the meantime I have fixed
my panel problems and can now see gps and horizon at the same time.

For the future more 'in-between' times would be better for me. 10 or 11 pm, family responsibilities tend to rule out anything too early or too late.

Cheers

Steve
