Greetings All!

[andyjohnston]

Been a long time.

I see you're preparing for the big race. I know I commited an error a few years back, but I'm wondering if I can join you this time around?

You're cuttin' it pretty close Andy, but Welcome Aboard!




You'll need to catch yourself up .... just the usual stuff .... right now there's a Practice Thread going.

http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?243948-Practice-Thread-4-putting-it-all-together

Simple instructions on the first post of the thread ... Always check latest post to see what's happening.




The practice thread is for practice and not for testing .... you may of course start a thread with any pertinent topic

We need you to consider the Practice Thread as a rehearsal ... have all your testing complete before jumping in so folks won't get too disrupted.

Some of them have been at it for several weeks now and have passed the stage for testing.




Please make server connections as soon as possible and let me know if you have any issues.

We are using a new DNS address for logins fmspa.hopto.org .... both FSHost and TS3

Open up necessary ports and make the usual exceptions in your firewall.

Check your access to the forums and google site and reply back.

You'll need to go there for any in depth discussion and we've accumulated some goodies in the File Cabinet ... :p




I think that's about it for now .... I'll try to set up some more team oriented "live" practices in the coming days.

Probably best done on weekends ... they will be announced on the forum.

Okay, checking things out, and running into some issues. TS3 says Host not found, and FSHostClient says No Sessions. Is there an IP I can use? Or certain ports? Is anything password protected?

As for the forums, I have access to the public ones, but not the privates. Do I contact John M for that?

[TX_3306]

I'll get you set back up on the private forum soon in the next day or so.

Regarding TS3 and FSHost, we don't use an IP anymore. Try fsmpa.hopto.org. Also, read the updated FAQs. http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?210895-Multiplayer-Adventures-Forum-FAQ-s

Whoops!... My bad ... it's fsmpa.hopto.org ... :o


Mike's right everything anyone needs is in the FAQ ... there are only 4 sticky's .... it's right at the top.


Seek and you will find ...
