I have searched the zone (www.zone.com) which is usally where i fly online with FS9 but cant find a combat flight sim 3 server (or section) only combat flight sim 2, can anyone tell me where to find online games for Combat flight sim 3

Many thanks

I don't have the game but I have heard that CFS2 is better than CFS3.
Check around before you buy it.

Where do I go to find online flight sim play for free or to join a clan? I have a number of flight sims and would like to play cfs2 or cfs3 on line.
Please help confused in Canada! 😕

Can ms combat3 be multiplayered between two computers not online? I networked two of mine and FSim2004 works but can't get combat3. All I can do is internet play. I like to shoot down my Grandkids but when there here at the house we can't multiplay. Any help would be greatly appriciated.

I acnnot hear OTHER players plane's engines while I HOST a game. Everything is fine when I join another game, this occurs ONLY when I host! Can anyone tell WTH is wrong?

There arent much places to go besides the stock online Multiplayer. The zone Has only cfs2, i looked at the list. If you want a squad ask me at squadrem308@yahoo.com, ill hook you up and you can fly with us.

If by "much better" you mean "much more resource intensive, buggy, crash-prone and difficult to tweak" - then yes, you are right. CFS3 is all of these.

308th_Awesome Guest

Nope, CFS3 is much easier to tweak, and once tweaked properly, will run without buggy action. CFS2 is also resorce intensive, it just depends on your system. 😉

CFS3 is buggy for me. I am lucky if I can get through one mission without the video/sound glitching or the whole computer just hanging.

If you didn't add a new router or firewall and now have SP2 that can be the cause.

What do you have to lose. you can download it again. I don't use it because of all the minor problems I've read about.
But my new laptop came with it installed, no problems...yet.

it turns out that i never had sp2 installed at all. so that further complicates matters

IL2 is much better as an online game than any of the CFS imo 🙂

You're asking in the wrong forum, read this in the FS2004 multiplayer forum: https://forum.flyawaysimulation.com/forum/topic/11710/dummys-guide-to-multiplayer/#71752

PS Sum1, plz are not words and the Shift key is to the left of z. 🙂
