Title: Steam FSX server?
Post by: TeaLeaf on October 16, 2015, 09:33:58 AM
So what do we need to do to run it from BA5?    Or does it need to be run from BA5?  

Pros and cons?

Also it has a minimum specs...does BA meet that?

At the moment I am hosting it via the game itself, afaik that's the only way we can do it, it would mean have the game constantly running on ba5 which I don't think would be ideal would it? Also we would have no control over any settings etc as ba5 would be the host.  Im not sure if it would gobble a lot of resources causing problems for other games.

The former might not be a bad idea.

The latter?  BA5 pees all over the specs from a very great height!
