This is for First Eagles if you could not figure it out! Thanks :)

Please note that these port references are hosting a game.

We will have another "Open Skies" dogfight at 1400 Central on Saturday July 7th. With each match we are gaining additional volunteers and support. With luck, we will soon have a relatively seamless install and procedures, together with dedicated servers and support. Stay tuned. IMHO it is essential to have Teamspeak (free) and a headset. A microphone will work, as will just speakers - if you do not mind typing while the rest talk. The current TS server is SimHQ (64.72.121.17:8767 pw SimHQ_talk). We are meeting on the Hamachi server (another free download) using the "First Eagles" network with the password of "fe". Technical support will be provided to get you all connected.

Here is my reply from the FE forum "v. Deutschmark Thanks for your concern. Your points are well taken. If anyone had a true answer for online play in FE, we would obviously not be trying again. Much like the Wright Brothers found out, it takes allot work to fly. Presently we are having allot of fun with this and we are finding some of the best online combat we have ever seen since it's inception. Granted, we will run into issues along the way and we will have to try something different (much like the Wright Brothers). We are truly committted to the task and we "will" see it through. I can only ask for your support and patients as we move forward. If you have a dedicated TS server we can use, super. It would save resources one (yes there will be more than one) of the FE dedicated servers I am setting up! Thanks for your input" Please note the port reference I was documenting was for hosting through a firewall and for everyones benefit. You do not need to worry about this is your are a player when using Hamachi. As far as the cost of playing on this proposed MP environment, there will be none. We are looking for support and not opposition especially in these early stages of development. It's a shame that Firecage asked his post to be removed. He's a damn good pilot and sees a future (at least I still hope so) in what we are doing. I thought he made a great post. Please support him and us as we move forward. Thank you again

My Hamachi IP address is 5.2.208.34. The session name is First Eagles. The password is fe

We are going to have another 'Open Skies' dogfight Wednesday morning 0730 Central. Hamachi seems to be the best vehicle - no noticable lag, smooth play. The Hamachi server is First Eagles pw fe. The Teamspeak server will be SimHQ. Here is your chance to re-enact the Trenton raid. See you there. Same plane loadout - D7F and Spad 13. If you can load the Vogesen terrain, so much the better - more interesting low level fighting. We are working hard to make the Multiplayer functionality in FE as enjoyable as many other games. It take community support to make these "out of the box" ideas reality. WOV and WOE excel at their popularity due to modding engineers wanting more out of the game. FE will be no different. We all know that any game will sell more copies if multipalyer works well. I encourage anyone who has this game to join us in these sessions. Thanks

Please find the following information: FE: 1234 TCP and UDP 46000 TCP and UDP 2300-2400 TCP and UDP 6073 UDP Hyper Lobby 1698 TCP and UDP 21000 TCP and UDP Hamachi: 12975 TCP 32976 TCP Note: If these Hamachi ports are not open, then is defaults to 443 TCP. 443 is the standard Secure Socket Layer port. A favorite amoung hackers and frequently scanned.
