Brad Curtis 923901 Posted March 20, 2005 at 03:58 AM Posted March 20, 2005 at 03:58 AM Newbie so please correct me if I'm wrong. If I am logged into everything, listening to ATC and pilots exchanging dialogue (including take-off and landing clearances) and sitting in the parking area of the airport, should I be able to see traffic landing and departing??? Thx in advance Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre Koch 852831 Posted March 20, 2005 at 10:43 AM Posted March 20, 2005 at 10:43 AM Yes, of course you should be able to see everyone. Can you give us a step-by-step description of how you connect to Vatsim? Include everything you do. I´m sure there´s something small you have overlooked. Alternatively you could wait another week or so and use the all new Squawkbox 3.0, which will make connecting as easy as clicking a button.

Lennart Vedin Posted March 20, 2005 at 03:31 PM Posted March 20, 2005 at 03:31 PM You could bee slightly at faulty position at Vatsim due to wrong Windows list-separator. Have you check your exact position. Not opened port in firewall could also prevent other airplane-data going into your computer. Troubleshooting at http://forums.vatsim.net/viewtopic.php?p=2262#2262 Subject 9. Faulty position at Vatsim (Don't see other airplanes. Don't see ATC in Squawkbox directory) Subject 6.

Brad Curtis 923901 Posted March 20, 2005 at 03:33 PM Author Posted March 20, 2005 at 03:33 PM Thanx for the response Andre. Here's how I log on...... 1: Squawkbox Relay, starts up and gives message" You can now connect SB2 and FS2004 to this server" 2: Start FS2004, select plane etc... and place on tarmac at Cargo Ramp, Parking, Gate, etc..... 3: FS2004-Modules-Host SB-Run 4: Start SB2, Player Name "Squawkbox", Connection "Internet TCP/IP", Select Game to Join "SB RElay-Squawkbox2", Click here to get into the action. 5: SBHost window, select "Squawk Standby", "ATC Functions" input flight plan, "Connect"- AVC automatically starts up and I can tune ATC from "ATC Directory" As I mentionned, I can tune into conversations no problem, and ServeInfo shows me on the ground, at the correct airport with no flight plan filed. Everything seems to be correct except can't see traffic that should be landing, departing right in front of me. Any help would be great, haven't made my first flight yet but I'm very anxious to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(if not, try enter IP-address 127.0.0.1 ) - Select Join. > .. select plane etc... and place on tarmac at Cargo Ramp, Parking, Gate, etc..... / Lennart Vedin / Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
