Here is something coming new

keep getting the "The host was unable to launch the session due to an
internal error" error.

Hi- this is most likely happening because you or your multiplayer partner is (Missing) a file..object ect...Everyone (Must) have everything that is original created (Plus) everyone must have Acceleration installed for a MP mission to work period..This is not supported in Default FSX/SP1 or SP2..you all must have Accel or you will get this error if you try to join a MP session
If you look at FSDeveloper, I had clarified that already. Everyone has the mission and is running FSX Acceleration.

Thanks for mentioning that, though.
 
:jump: Amazing stuff Ron !!

The Sub is over the Top - :ernae::applause::ernae:

Looking forward to it !!

Many Cheers !!

Hi Ego..Love your videos.. Well why not do the Doolittle raid..so while the project is ongoing.. This time you will get to actually have a predetermined target and drop a bomb on it..If sucsessfull -and dont get hit by flak- then you will have to navigate to another target area to bail out by parachute before you run outta fuel.. If you land in it then its mission complete--like the one way ticket that raid was--- The B-25 plane you will fly will be an updated version of the AI version--there will be gear animation and prop animation and DX10 ready .. plus easy notes on how to insert your own B-25 aircraft into the flight file to use it in the mission instead of the AI one so you will have all the other stuff-guages/VC....early pics

Hi Orion..I will try to get you some better info on how I got it done when I get into the MP part of this mission..I have to load it all up and re-learn again and then I can probaby help..I have 2 PCs set up on different lines with different gamespy passwords so I am able to get some MP testing on my own without having to have someone else--lot quicker and better that way..:icon31:

Thanks, I also have three computers to test this on, and I keep getting this error. I hope we can get this solved together :).

Thanks for your help!

Hi ORION 2 --I got into the multiplayer part of this tonight and I might have some info that will help--At first I got the dreaded (Internal error) as I joined my own game--Thought I would be up to 1AM tonight..Here was the problem if it helps your mission--I had one PC with the mission in a (Subfolder) and on the other PC my mission was directly in the (Missions) folder--Problem solved after making (Both) PCs have the mission in the same path directory..the mission loaded for me as a joined player--I trapped on my first try -caught wire 2 on the Hornet..thats rare for me

Sounds like it's quite simple, although I'm pretty sure that I was doing it right the first time also.

I'll quickly remake the mission and try again.

Thanks!

Hi Orion II -- Here is another tip--Do not edit a mission from one pc and then edit the mission on the other PC the same--even if its the (EXact same edit) for some reason you will get the (Internal error)probaby this is caused by guids automaticaly being written...matter of fact I know thats what it is....This thing is sensitive.. You must completely copy any new edited mission xml and port it over to your other PC by disc..otherwise you will get the error

Thanks for the tip, I'll try and see if I can get things working this weekend.
 
I feel really stupid now. I had started this project about a year ago now, but for some reason, I just couldn't get it to work, although now, I try again and it just works.

Thanks for your help!

Orion

P.S. Good luck to your project also, looking good ;)!
 
An Update..Great Orion 2 for getting it working.. Its the Multiplayer part that takes all my time up as it is quite sensitive to get it to work..just look at it wrong and (Poof).. Anyway all is coming along ..Here are some pics of my very own Hellcat off of the beautiful Pensacola Florida on a launch and trap training mission during WW2 era..complete with a little animated pilot man in it.. Multiplayer will also include for 2 players to drive each of the carriers as others spawn on it for launch into battle.. and can talk via MP for carrier locations for navigation back to the carriers..coool or what? But--you might not make it back..sooo:icon31:
 
Plus the Doolittle mission is a total trip.. All the guys are making jokes and stuff while Jimmy is saying "Knock it off and watch out for zeros!"..But no zeros never come..but other stuff does..soo
 
Wait, are you modeling the USS Hornet CV-8 or CV-12?

I might be able to use your model in a scenery I'm making if it's CV-12 :p.

Anyhow, looking good!

Orion

P.S. Working on my mission, estimated release would be in time for Christmas. Also, sorry for getting your topic off topic.
 
Ok--this scenery is finally done..8 major missions with Hellcats and corsairs..plus multiplayer and flight deck traps..everything is with combat in the missions..you get to shoot at AI and each other in MP..all in Acell + FSX..final go will be at (Alphasim)..good luck and dont get all shot up:help:
 
Totally awesome!!!

Can't wait to try it!

I still need to fix a camera (how do you change a camera's elevation?), make a reward and an installer for mine :p.
 
Hi OrionII -I usually attach my cams to another object and then you get a 2nd option for axis..The Y axis is the 2nd set of number values in the attached object to move the cam up or down..as far as making rewards its shown in the SDK..I have a folder set up and a command prompt but it was so long ago..I just go to it and make them so I do not remember how to set it up:amen:
