Can CFS3 work on a LAN for multiplayer?

fortunafavetfortibus Guest

Hello again, Retired Navy Pilot here hoping to find a way to get CFS3 working on a LAN at the Museum where I work. I have gone thru the steps in the multiplayer tab for hosting private games joining a private game etc. I believe I have properly loaded the correct IP addresses to get them to connect, I am getting a message that they cannot find the other computer.

I simply want to allow my LAN of 15 computers which is NOT connected to the internet have the multiplayer function for CFS3. We have successfully done this for FSX and each of the 15 stations can fly taxi etc alongside the other 14 players. So I know the LAN is connected properly. Expanding the multiplayer capability to combat flight simulator would really enhance the learning and fun for our field trips and camps.

Can anyone out there help me with this problem? Thanks very much!
