• 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.

Well...............

Yo Jay;

You have 2 choices:

#1 Easy:
Fly CFS2 from a server based multiplayer setup called CFS2 Flight Deck against people you do not know.

#2 Difficult:
Use CFS2's multiplayer & connect to people you know.
There is too much to explain here about how to do this.

A group of us have been experimenting with this but are having mixed results. YES it is possible but there are many variables & glitches.

CFS2 multiplayer was designed to operate on a dial-up connection not on DSL.

In a nutshell: the host of any session needs to have a static port to the internet in order for this to operate. (for the other players to connect to) If you understand the differences between static & dynamic ports; (unlocked router) then you are about one third way there.

We have had 6 players up at once, although 2 suffered F/R degradation until they could no longer fly. More work is required to iron out this bug. We talk via an instant messaging service using audio.

It's a real "blast" to fly against "live meat" instead of AI & shoot the crap outta yer friends.

But it's not an easy or simple thing to set-up.
