Is there any VATSIM software I can use for Windows 98 first edition, running FS2004? The minimum spec I can find is W98 second edition. I have installed it but, guess what, it doesnt work.

 

Thanks

Hi Adam.

 

If you ask about a software, to connect to VATSIM for

multi-player purposes, THIS IS IT:

And while you are there, search for the .PDF file

for instructions.

My Win$loz version is 4.10.1998

I don't know if it is first or second edition,

but FSInn works well here.

I have tried FSINN but it says in the docomeentation that Windows 98 second edition is the minimum spec. When I try to connect I get a popup box saying "Connecting to multiplayer session via lobby" which dissappears after a minute. I do not get the "vatsim" button appearing.

> "Connecting to multiplayer session via lobby"

You may need to perform a manual connection in FS multiplayer menu. Sorry but I can help more in detailes. You may also post in the FSInn forum just above this.

 

Also check for Direct-X version since this invlove multiplayer.

Have you considered upgrading to 98SE if your computer will stand it? Microsoft don't sell the upgrade any more, but there's quite a few copies on E-bay
