Hi All,
I've been thinking recently. I've never actually tried multiplayer on FSX. However, would certainly be coaxed into it if we had a series of long-distance air races! I have hundreds of hours single player, I think I'm near 300 hours with the B17/B377 and almost at 20 on the spit!
I'm thinking of re-creating the historic routes from the 30's, and maybe even come up with some of our own routes to try for specific racing!
There are a massive bunch of fighters supplied from A2A (for obvious reasons the Accu-Sim versions are most popular! I don't even fly anything else any more!) so we should have a great choice of aircraft. And there's no reason to limit it to fighters. A Spitfire on a long route would have to land for fuel probably 3 times more than a B17!
If anyone is interested in getting something like this started, let's discuss it here and see where it goes!
Many thanks for reading.
Sev.
A2A Aircraft Races
Re: A2A Aircraft Races
Hmm, I thought initially about some kind of reno race league for Spit MkI/II.
However, my experience with Multiplayer in FSX is almost equal to zero, due to several connection cutoffs in open multiplayer gamespy sessions. I fall out of a session almost every minute, so I never really followed the issue Multiplayer in FSX... Another item is the ebsence of anti-aliasing during Multiplayer... Why has FSX so many flaws and needs so many workarounds

Re: A2A Aircraft Races
Very very interested! I have flown a couple of the mail routes and have a special love for anything historical. Getting a route set up where we can frequently come across each other, or scheduled fly-ins, would be lots of fun. I just loaded FSX onto my online computer (my main computer is offline only) for the live weather, but would enjoy flying with others. Lately, I spend all my time in the WoP2 P-51.

I like the idea of re-creating historic flights! I like going for the records personally (e.g. Spirit of St. Louis, Emelia Earhart ATW, etc..).

Re: A2A Aircraft Races
I realize this thread is almost a month and a half old, but have these events gained any momentum, ie taking place/still taking place?
I'm also interested and would like to know times and dates if possible.
Cheers,
Brandon

Re: A2A Aircraft Races
hey guys, forget gamespy! i have made us all a server thats open 24/7 for FS2002, FS2004, and FSX all tied in, its on gamespy. If the ring leader of the races wants to setup a race on that server id be happy to give him the admin rights on the server to setup a hop list on there... FSHost allows you to actually setup a route race like that! pm me if your interested in setting something up, im wanting some activity and some regulars. My server is home ran on a high gig speed, so you can even have your aircraft sitting online 24/7 without choking up and slowing down the server. Hope to see you all on there!
