• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

CFS3 Multiplayer Issues

There are a few things to consider :

Firstly, Microsoft no longer supports it's game server for CFS3;

All Multiplayer CFS3 sessions are now handled peer to peer (IPs are Posted in Forum Threads).

The Updates for CFS3 at the MS website are still used, so get those two downloaded and installed.

Also, there is some fiddling required for Windows 7 users. See Windows 7 install fix Stickey Thread.

That should get you in the door. We post "Stock 3.1a" games in the Stickey Thread provided by SOH.

And yes, we regularly have CFS3 furballs of 5-10 pilots daily, so we'd be happy to have you back.

Attention!!! Putting your computer in the DMZ creates a high security risk. Preferrable to do the port-forwarding as per Pascal, 2300 to 2300 and 28883 to 28886.
