i have installed fsx and fsinn and put in all microsoft fsx and gamespy network ports but i cant seem to get a listing in the free flight servers list for servers to join.

i log in to multiplayer

i get server listings in the flight training and other rooms and peoples names come up in the room and peoples names also come up in free flight but no server listing in free flight

 

bitdefender internet security also on with its own firewall but when firewall is turned off i have same problem.

 

any ideas welcome

you wont see the VATSIM servers in the FSX/gamespy multiplayer. we use the pilot clients to connect to VATSIM

You still need to use a VATSIM pilot client to connect to the network. More information can be found at http://www.vatsim.net/prc/

no i have fsinn and it works fine.

 

i mean the server list in the fs mulitplayer screen/free flight where i normally get the listings of dedicated fs servers for connection to.

They won't be there. You must use FSInn or SquawkBox (if FS) to connect. You cannot connect via the FS Multiplayer Screen/Free Flight Screen.

probably a gamespy issue. if they have an FS forum, i'd recommend trying their to see. itll probably be a firewall issue but not sure. as far as connecting to VATSIM tho, we use the clients.

 

if youre trying to connect to a gamespy server, youll have to try and see if they are having issues
