I did not really think the 2024 environment would be void of MSFS users (simpilots).

Short of reinstalling I still do not see anyone.
What is the busiest airfield to go to to see if other players can be seen?

FYI, see this bug topic. The topic is applicable to both those on SU2 (release) & SU3 Beta, as the topic was originally created when SU2 was in Beta.
SU3 Beta users have been discussing it here:
Lax, jfk, heathrow all guaranteed to have other pilots flying around

Iâm going to give that a try here in a bit.
Problem is earlier today I loaded into a smaller regional airport in Texas, and told a few other people where I was and what server I was on. 3 people loaded into that airport with the same settings. I never saw any of them, and only one of them was able to see me (I didnât see him because I had given up by that point and wasnât actually looking, but he got a screen grab of me).
Curious as to why you can specifically coordinate a location, settings, and server with somebody, and still not be able to see each other.
Yooooo, I finally found somebody!
I flew around New York for a bit on the east server and didnât find anybody. So then I switched to Los Alamitos AAF near LAX, took off and did some laps, didnât see anybody.
So then I decided I would shoot it to around FL350 to see if I could see any contrails from any live traffic up there, because Iâve yet to see it. But then I look off to my right and see a name way off in the distance, and know immediately itâs not live traffic.
I banked right, hit the afterburner, and went racing down there.
When I got down there, I realized he was in a glider. Ainât no way I was going to be able to maintain his airspeed. But I wanted a closer look while being respectful and maintaining my distance.
In my excitement, I decided to see if I could put this bird down on the little airstrip he was gliding near, CA89. Itâs 3,100â, so no problem.
He finally came back down to earth and landed on the adjacent runway. Then about a minute later he just vanished.
As a side note, on the EFB, his icon is white. I know in the world map, live players should be either pink or green. Not sure if they are supposed to be other colors on the EFB or not, but his icon is white for me.
Not sure if heâs in the forums, but I would imagine his forum name does not match his gamertag like me

Oop, while I was typing that up he reracked and took off again, gave me a little buzz. If he doesnât have the F-22, it probably looks pretty silly seeing a 737 sitting on the end of this short dirt runway
Same thing. 2020 never an issue seeing other players. 2024 rarely ever see others except for the AI aircraft. IMOâŠ.more are on the 2020 version as opposed to 2024.

Me and a friend of mine, just gave up trying to fly multiplayer for the third time this week. Itâs so annoying. How hard could it be to fix it? Tell me its working better in the SU4 betaâŠ.please.

Maybe a little bit off-topic. When flying with multiplayer, do others players also see what I see or do? For example: The tow plane in front of me or winch cable when flying a glider? Or the colorful smoke with an aerobatics aircraft? Or the fluid when spraying a field with the air tractor airplane? Or dropping water out of the bambi bucket from a helicopter?

I was having troubles with this for the last few days. I had both Wifi and Ethernet connected to my router. I turned off Wifi, and realized my ethernet was not connected. Jiggled the cable, and got connected. Multiplayer came back on. Replaced the wonky ethernet cable. So, check your network connections as multiplayer seems sensitive to network connections.
I have Multiplayer ON but when I fly I donât see anybody.
Perhaps FSLTL is messing things up?
I have set the online traffic to âReal-Time" since I donât want to lose the road and see traffic.
However, I donât see any other players.
When I went to the weather settings I noticed they are set to off, but there is no way to fix it, as I have the slider of Multiplayer ON
Anyone can explain to me what am I doing wrong, please?
Thank you!
No way to see anyone. All settings checked. Whatâs going n???
Multiplayer rarely works for me. Most of the time, it doesnât. I usually fly with my brother. Iâm in Germany, heâs in Scotland. Weâre on the same server and have all the settings correct, as mentioned here.
The strange thing is: he can see me online, and when we are standing next to each other on the airfield, he can also see my aircraft.
For me, he is permanently offline and I cannot see his aircraft.
Although he is offline for me, he can invite me to join a group. I can accept this and we can chat without any problems. Nevertheless, he remains offline and I cannot see him.
However, we both see the same live traffic.
Otherwise, all components, such as landscape, live traffic and live weather, load very quickly.
If I leave the social window open, I see an update every few minutes (a brief flicker), but nothing changes.
The server connection to the West Europe server is 27-29 ms. Itâs a little faster for my brother.
If I set the server selection to automatic, no connection appears there.
When it does work, which is rare, nothing has been changed in the settings. I have also tested this with an empty community folder, checked the firewall settings, etc., but nothing works.
Even though there are many other multiplayer issues, when it does work, at least a basic permanent function should be possible.
Perhaps someone else knows what the problem could be.
Thanks for your help.

I managed to play different times online with different friends, but it doesnât always go smooth.
Last time first try went fine, we could see ech other, then we went to another airport and I could not see him, but he could see me. So many times I go back to menu and load back in. play with the settings, Live or All players. But I read somewhere , If you put it on Live, then your friend should also have ot on LIve and not ALL players.. I dunno, I mess around with the settings and finally we are able to see each other.
Last time I asked on the Discord and I had no problems playing with this person.
With my other friend I managed to do the A-10 photo with two other A-10âs and the Glider photo with two other gliders.
I even recorded it, so you can see it. The other guy CrayCray whas his name, he was new to the game and he did not know about slew mode and that you can pause your plane ingame, so that why it took a little longer 
And done the Nusatupe airport, you just need a friend to take off from the airport and take photo, and visa versa if your friend wants it too.
Let me know, we can try just if we can see each other and test stuff out, so you know what settings you should put it on so it works all the time for you
