How can I test basic Multiplayer functionality?

Applies To

RealFlight G2
RealRace G2

Answer

If you are having connection problems using the Multiplayer features, you should see if the problem occurs with the basic Multiplayer and Network functionality.  To do this, you can run Chatpeer, a program written by Microsoft which is designed to test the basic Multiplayer functionality.  If you see the same problems with Chatpeer, you should assume the problem is with your network connection.

To run Chatpeer:

1. Start the RealFlight Control Panel (Start Menu/Programs/RealFlight) - or RealRace

2. Click on the Technical Support button

3. Click on the Chatpeer button

4. Have another person who you are trying to connect with do the same steps

5. One person needs to "Create" the chat, and the other person will join it.

If Chatpeer works, and you are still having problems with G2's Multiplayer feature, please contact Product Support.
