It's usually done via the zone. The game is called the SimV dogfight and is a private game with password entry only (Maccers or Woody will no doubt give out the password although the old password was simply pete.)
There are two CFS2 game rooms on the zone and I can't for the life of me remember what they are called now but I trust someone will let you all know.

Now the bad news (for those of you hoping for a few easy kills that is) I'll be at Duxford all day on Sunday for the Duxford Spring Airshow and I don't normally get home untill about 9-9:30pm so I may not be home in time to join in. I will pop over to the zone as soon as I get home, but if the game is running, I will not be able to get in.

Oh no, put your mind at rest Hawk. I know for a fact that every time I have a "bad" Dogfight day, it's definitely a problem with the online setup. Definitely.

There can be no other explanation....................... ;D ;D ;)


Yeah, that right! ;D

9-00 pm Sunday GMT. That's 7-00 am Monday in Sydney.
You blokes haven't got Daylight Saving going on over there, or anything that would change the normal 10 hr difference?

Just to make sure of my timing (so I'm not late or early for the very first one), I'm posting this at 11-35 pm my time which should come up as 1-35 pm there. Can someone in Britain give me a time reference?

P.S. Is there some arrangement we can make so that any late comers can get in. Say, a break at 10-00 am and 10-30. (Not for me - I should be on time..........lol ;D))

Thanks Craig,

You saved me from being an hour late.
So you're only 9 hours behind me....why is this?

Games normaly last around an hour - hour and half. People slowly drop out (problems on their end of the network, computer crashes, the slightest bit peeved about being shot down all the time ::) :P) but as long as their are 2-3 people there the games carry on, but by then it goes to formation flying.
Games should still be on the same IP if you drop, just re-connect and join again :)

I am in the dark here. Is there going to be a fight this weekend? When, what day etc. I'll try to be there. Atleast I should go to my own creation... :P

Sunday might be a bit of a problem for me as i'm going sailing that day. Anyway. Please tell... I'll need to dust my tigermoth off and start a new zone account. ;D
