Can't see friend, but I can see everybody else

Been flying witha friend quite a bit lately but there is something that neither us can seem to fix. The first flight of 2 was YSSY-YMML. We were both able to see each others aircraft quite well at the cockpit windows, now since then no matter which server we login to, we can't see each others aircraft at all. The flight from BOS-DCA earlier this week, we saw each other at the gate up to takeoff roll, after that, couldn't see em. Same with last night SAN-SFO. At one point he was behind me and I had stopped, he went right p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ed (basically through me) and was at the hold short lines for 27 at SAN. Now the controllers see both of us, but it makes it hard when ATC isn't online because after you land, we can't tell where the other one is. Any ideas?

 

Login info from lastnight, after the flight, we both setup positions at sydney, I logged in using the oceanic server instead of the normal USA-W. Still nothing.

Hi Aaron,

 

They are aware of this at the SB3 forums. I believe they're trying to pin it down as we speak.

 

You'd be better visiting the SB3 forums and posting there as you'll get more info and advice on this problem there.

 

Here's the link to the topic :

Hope this helps.

 

Cheers!

Paul.

It also seems to be an intermitent problem. No probs for ages but in the last few days I've had instances when I could see other aircraft when I departed, but when I reached my destination ............all gone Only knew they were there because of FS9 multiplayer and FSNav and managed to contact them on SB (which also puzzles when I can txt them but cant see them ). Ah well shant complain because so many put so much effort into helping us enjoy our hobby and if it was any easy fix it would have happened by now.
