Oliver Smith Posted March 18, 2007 at 08:24 PM Posted March 18, 2007 at 08:24 PM Hello, The first list are just download mirrors, choose the closest to you, as this will be fastest. In 3D mode, type .vis ICAO to center on an airport, example .vis EGKK for London Gatwick, or .vis EGLL for heathrow. If your intressted in controlling in the UK, I would suggest joining http://www.vatsim-uk.organd a good read through the http://www.vatsim.net/prc might help aswell! Good luck!

Trent Hopkinson Posted April 20, 2007 at 12:04 AM Posted April 20, 2007 at 12:04 AM Download mirrors mean there are duplicate files ie the First file contains the letters "ABCD" and it is located on a computer in New York the second file contains the letters "ABCD" and is located on a computer in Brussels the Third file is an exact replica of the other two with no changes at all, but is located on a computer in Sydney and so on. The files are all EXACTLY THE SAME, but they are located on a computer in a specific location. Usually it is quickest to download a file from a computer closer to your physical location. The same goes for the Vatsim Servers. All of the servers contain the exact same information (where traffic is, what controllers are logged on) but spread throughout the world so you can pick the one closest to you so it can run quicker, instead of the information coming through thousands of miles of cables.

Trent Hopkinson Posted April 20, 2007 at 12:08 AM Posted April 20, 2007 at 12:08 AM im still not able to change which airport i view from, .vis1 EGSS - now viewing from Standstead. If you are doing the multiplayer-FS trick, you should now move your "Aircraft" (or tower view) to EGSS. .vis1 EBBR - now viewing from Brussels. Same deal, FS move the aircraft to EBBR to view traffic there now. 3d mode only needs the .vis action.
