Multiplayer and ATC...

Postby Fozzer » Sat Mar 07, 2009 6:14 am

Hello Multiplayer Chums!... :)...!

I love being able to publish, on-line, my FS Navigator Flight Plans in my Multiplayer sessions for anyone to peruse, (and maybe join?)...

...but...how I miss the interactive radio communication between me and Air Traffic Control, which we enjoy during our "off-line", Solo flights!... :'(...!

I know for technical reasons, mixing the two is not possible, but I really do miss the company of the Default ATC during my Multiplayer flights...;)...!

..it can get quite lonely...up here... ::)....it really can!... :'(....!

Paul...G-BPLF...FS 2004...FS Navigator...and a blown fuse in my Radio Stack!... ;D...!

.... ;D....!

Paul,

There are the payware addon ATC programs Radar Contact and Profilght Emulator.  They are stand alone ATC programs that run "outside" the sim itself.  

I am not SURE ....but it might be possible to have them running when you are in online mode.  Those two programs are said to be VERY much more realistic.  Proflight Emulator has regional voices that match the location with the English accents used (asia, europe, america, south america, etc.).


You ought to research it.  It would be slick as heck if that was the case.

best,

.....................john

If one joins a multiplayer with an ATC player, do you not get the experience?

Not too many casual flight sim servers have ATC operating.  For that you need to hang out on VATSIM or IVAO.  And those sites utilize separate proprietary software and are very complex..... literally like the real world.  If you aren't a "type rated" level pilot in an aircraft there .... you'd better not show up online in one.

What about SimV's server?  If I wanted to start working as an ATC here, how would I go about it?

I'm currently running FSX Deluxe, btw, but nothing "extra" in terms of plugins or add-on software.  What would be your reccomendations?

...LOL... ;D...!

..'trubble is, Sam...

The Multiplayer Teamspeak program isn't designed to allow me to communicate with ATC, using default FS 2004 ATC, in "on-line", Solo flights.

It gets awfully quiet during my Solo on-line Flights, after I have published my Flight Plan...;)...!

Default, "off-line", ATC constantly track my taxi/flight movements which I don't think Teamspeak can do?

Paul...G-BPLF...FS 2004...and a duff Radio... ;D...!

Teamspeak Headphones make my ears too hot...and I dribble in the Mike...!... :-[.... ;D...!
