Hi all,

I just reinstalled my FS2 after so many years and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction on getting on servers. I try to in the game but the PXO web site does not work.

Any help would be appreicated.

eh?

What kind of servers?

Also, old style FS2 isn't all the popular, i suggest clicking the link under my name, and going to the Source Code Project part. Read the installing guide, and install this wonder.

I supsect he means PXO.

Download FS2_open instead. To make it easier click on the installing FS2_open link under my post . Instead (or in addition to) downloading the build mentioned on that page download the one on the first page of this one.

FS2_Open is great. The missions are the same as PXO at the moment but the graphics are much better.

Karajorma's Freespace FAQ. It's almost like asking me yourself.

that, and "at the moment" should be a fairly short period once we get FSCZ online.

ok, I got the Open and Launcher files installed. But when I click on multiplayer, no servers show. Is there something I am missing?

Anything would be good for me. I mean, this is such a good game and to have no multiplayer peeps on really burns me up.:mad:

no servers were listed and now I have a problem with my effects. Laser and missle trails don't show.  What do I need to do?

I think you have to set up a PXO name and passwork even tho it says log in failed.
Your weapons could be that yo have tables and you're not suppose to in multiplayer:)

Could someone look and see if you have the same problem, so I can make sure I'm not doing something wrong
