Hi First we have to see what version everybody has: I have EF2000v2.0 and the we will all need to get ICQ or some other chat program where we can meet and setup the game!! Then we can decide on a voice chat program Ventrillo is a good one or Team Speak!! Hopefully we can do this as I was never able to play Multiplayer campaign online it took 45 min to load damn DIALUP!!

EF2000 V2.0 here.
Take me a few days to sort things out - joystick mappings, display settings, get familiar with English accents again.
This is cool.

V2.0 Here, I`ll need a couple of days for sorting things out too. I don`t have to install 3dfx version if it has no tcp/ip support. Actually, all I would have to do is install it in my system, map joysticks and fly ...... through those fjords!

OK we all should get ICQ then we will meet there then goto voice i use Ventrillo ver 2.2.0 found here: http://www.ventrilo.com/download.php Get Ventrillo ill host the voice chat. I think it would be easier to just use the Win 95 version?? not hard to connect but with the voice chat will be no prob to conn for my puter I have to run a slow down program found here I use "WinThrottle" the BEST CPU slowdown program i found so far!! http://www.oldskool.org/pc/throttle My ICQ# 148635586

I have a problem running sef2000 - its like its running in accelerated mode, which it isn't.
Is that what you were referring to when you mentioned a "slow down" program?

Only thing it lacks now (IMHO) is a facelift. Steve- why, oh why..... No, I havn't downloaded anything yet. Gotta get the 2000 to my liking first. ps. you've been around for awhile on simHQ, did you change aliases?

OK maybe not mod but there are a few things.
But I am having trouble setting up a multiplayer game it all works up until, where it goes to the room to see who joins and select the game I tried on both systems same thing.
See if you can setup a multiplayer game anfd if its working
perhaps something wrong here but the older machine is what i used to play thru multi with EF

All set to go with the exception of finding my key card. I installed win95 version and it runs well. Any luck in connecting multi as of yet? I`m still digging around for the key card, might have to go into the sim any try out each key individually.

If your ready we can go for a test run did you get ICQ?? i think cause my router I am unable to connect but if we try it might work!!

How do I authorize? I`ve never used icq. I originally installed win95 version on my main puter without any problems. I decided then to install the 3dfx version in my retro box, but I`m having a hard time calibrating my ch hotas...sigh. I`m hoping my gamecard will fix the calibration issue. As for kali, I had used it back in 98/99 and haven`t since so I don`t remember my logon info. I can always get a new membership. How about we try to hookup on Sun at say 8pm est? I must say the 3dfx version is gorgeous...forgot the atmosphere this game has. Once I`m all setup I`ll have to post some screens. Now off to find the gamecard.

I really should be going to sleep, but everything is working smooth now. Too bad it`s almost 6am. I just dug up Janes F-15, LB2, JSF, Hind, Flying Corps Gold, and Taw. I`m probably gonna install F-15 next (I was never good at this one).

I cant seem to remember how to authorize you should have a popup menu then you click authorise i will resend and authorization when you start ICQ the popup menu should appear then just click Authorize!! EDIT: I just saw ow to authorize, you will see a flashing message that says System message then click that then the authorization message will appear then just click authorize!! Kali has a 16 dollar registration special vs 20 or you could try to find your old codes here : http://www.kali.net/codes.asp they say they might not be able to find the old codes If we wanna fly the 3D FX version we will need KALI to fly I have Kali already but will NOT be able to fly the 3D FX version yet im waiting for a USB hub to hookup on the old rig my joystick crapped out on me and flying with the keyboard is nearly impossible!! What would be a good stick to get would the newer sticks work on Win 98SE?? I tried gettting an old thrustmaster but couldnt get it too work!! I was up till 5am last night myself flying the 3D FX version it still looks damn good! Did you mean sunday today?? 2-20 Ill leave ICQ open all day today!!

I`ll try authorizing again. As for kali, tried looking up my old codes and was successful, I just need to test out the numbers that were emailed to me. Just to give you a heads up, using my usb X-45 in the game, the throttle would not work....I tried everything, I hope you have better luck. Say, your`re not near NY are you? I have an old suncom (gameport) joystick lying around. I hope we can fly tonight!! Going to knock out the errands....be back later.
