I know our older members will be familiar with the discussions of
peer-to-peer networking we've had in the past; I suspect the non-appearing
aircraft is likely to be because of bandwidth and peer-to-peer stability
issues. This would especially true for Dave.
May I remind you that limiting your frame rate means less data transfers and
hence more stability even though for some it is against perceived wisdom to
get the best frame rates in FSX or so I understand. For FS9, limiting frame
rates is positively encouraged to get the best visual performance.
It might also be worth looking at the Multiplayer tab of the IVAP config
screen: If you're having difficulties with other aircraft only being seen
intermittantly try disabling the P2P tick box and relying on server data
only for traffic. That may well see your issues abate as you get the
traffic from the pooled data on the servers rather than direct from each of
the other pilots within range via peer-2-peer.
Just my two-penneth.

The latest hours are now posted on the JHB Hours page. Again I regret no
promotions this time round but I would like to say well done to John Hill
for passing the 1000 hour milestone.
I would also like to thank everyone for popping into Ronaldsway on Thursday.
It was nice to have a chat and see some traffic - including some visitors
from the UK, Italy, Netherlands and even Iran. I'd also like to thank
everyone who helped Dave in setting up his IVAO system and in getting his
first flight plan actioned.
There was an inevitable gremlin to the evening and one that has cropped up
in the past - aircraft not showing up. We've had this in the past and I
can't recall the exact details but some pilots could see all other aircraft,
some a few and others (Dave included) nothing at all. It's odd because Dave
saw other aircraft when he connected a couple of days earlier so maybe the
IVAO traffic servers were acting up.
I won't be around on Sunday. Madam has already told me we are going out to
celebrate our wedding anniversary so I wait in anticipation to find out what
she has got planned.
