Don\'t Think I Can See Other Aircraft Online
EHM-0654 Murray:
Kendy,
Don't you need to run the IVAP Network Interface separately?
It's the thing that makes the 4 "LEDs" in the taskbar. I have a feeling that it is that that makes the MP session.
Failing that, I know that in FS2004, you have to go into the IVAP menu in FS (sat in the cockpit) and select "Start IVAP" to have it make the MP session and automatically join it. I seem to remember things are much the same in FS2002, only you have to manually join the MP session before opening the IVAP User Interface. (Trouble is, not only am I using FS2004, I also run IVAP in MultiPC mode, so I have two lots of difference...)
EHM-1627 Chris:
i have tried following the steps in the manual and what you guys are telling me, and have no luck as yet!!!
EHM-0654 Murray:
Chris,
Daft question - do you "see" multiplayer traffic online in the TCAS? If you aren't seeing it on either the TCAS or in FS, something major is not right.
Other thing you might want to try - run AI-Bridge before you fire up Flight Simulator (just for testing purposes) and see if the MP traffic appear then...
EHM-1555 Kendy:
of course,
you have to start IVAP but not yet connect, then multiplayer session join and then connect IVAP.
I didn't say it because it was a short explanation .
But Chris go in FS START IVAP (till all lamps get green) then open multiplayer write callsign, session is automatically there only press join.
After this connect IVAP ;o)
EHM-0654 Murray:
OK - from the top (for my benefit as much as Chris's, I have to get this right for the IVAP Flying Guide)
[*]Start the IVAP Network Interface, wait for 4 reds.
[*]Start Flight Simulator, set up your flight.
[*]"Go flying", and once you're in the cockpit, go into the IvAp menu and Start IvAp.
[*]Go into the File menu and Multiplayer "tab" (you know what I mean, I'm sure) and Join the IvAp multiplayer session.[/list]
Is that about the size of it? Or does the "Join MP session" happen before you "Go flying"?
