Multiplayer Aircrafts

[Promagstyle]

When I choose to fly the (Promagstyle) China Eastern Airlines Airbus A340-600 and another player shows that he is flying a (Vicky) Air Canada Boeing 747-400, but when I view his plane. The model or exterior is the exactly the same plane that I am flying, what's going on here?

The other player shows that he is flying an Air Canada Boeing 747-400 and I am flying a Airbus A340-600 and when I look to see his plane, I am expecting to see a (Vicky) Air Canada Boeing 747-400, but I see an (Vicky) China Eastern Airlines Airbus A340-600.

Can someone please explain, how can I see the other players plane in Flight Simulator 2004. Thanks.

Both of you must have the same planes installed on the sim. So if one of you has a certain plane and the other does not you two can't see each other in the true plane.

Unless you have the same plane installed, you are going to see the person most likely in the same plane that you were in when you joined the multiplayer session.

Will the planes displayed correctly, if all have all planes, but maybe the users have other tags specified for the aircraft listing (aircraft.cfg: [fltsim.x] ui_manufacturer, etc.)? Or does just the title or another tag (or file) need to be the same?

Most of the time the planes will be displayed correctly. I don't know about the cfg. file so can't answer that.
