VTOL VR multiplayer MOD is out! My plate is a bit full right now with some other projects…but I’d like to give this a whirl in a few weeks:

https://vtolvr-mods.com/mod/qs6jxkt2/

  1. Download and install the vtol vr modloader from https://vtolvr-mods.com/ and follow the instructions on the site.

  2. Go to the mods section of the website and download the zip file. Place it in the mods folder inside the modloader folder, which is in the main vtol vr folder.

  3. Extract the zip file. Delete the original zip file.

  4. Run the modloader and use it to launch the game.

  5. On the main menu, you should see a new ā€œModsā€ button. Click on it. Then click the item for multiplayer and hit load on the bottom to actually load the mod into the game.

  6. Go back to main menu. Select your pilot.

  7. Get your friends to agree on a plane and scenario, and then select them, but don’t advance to the mission briefing.

  8. You’ll see an MP button on the bottom right on the scenario select screen. After selecting your scenario, press it.

  9. One of you needs to host by pressing the host button. Once they’re in the hanger to equip their weapons, everyone else can select their name and hit join.

  10. Loadout your plane as normal.

  11. On the screen where you put your helmet on, select your team. Host will always be blufor. If you want to do a co-op mission, everyone should select blufor.

  12. When all helmets are on, host will load, followed by everyone else. Enjoy!

I’ll be your friend @smokinhole add me on steam and we could try it out this weekend if you fancy it. Don’t worry about the time difference I’m a night owl and have been dying to try this :smiley: also @BeachAV8R as well, will be a giggle to fly together in Av-42C in formation

I tend to work weekends but once I get this set up I’ll hang out on Disco. Probably fun to be there anyway with all the MSFS activity that’s currently all the rage.

Sorry but I am giving this one a pass. I am so impatient with anything related to moding, updating, optimizing and overclocking that I (if truly honest with myself) should really stick with consoles. I tried modloader, got stuck at ā€œunable to find pilot.cfgā€, gave up and uninstalled.

See, this is why I have no friends. :crazy_face:

With that attitude I think we would actually get on wonderfully lol :laughing:

Yeah…important to remember this is a hacked together MP mod and is not officially supported nor is it probably the way the developer intends to implement it. So it might be better to wait until it becomes part of the base game.

ā€œWe beg your pardon Mr. AV8tor but as your are several millions over budget we will be unable to build your trebuchetā€.

Note to self: Get rid of one of my precious 1500L tanks and mount an MK84 for the bank. Momma always said to negotiate from a position of power.

That was good. I’m assuming VTOL VR has some sort of replay system that allows one to go back and edit the viewpoint?

No, no replay system, it does have an S-Cam which puts different views on your 2D monitor, which you just continuously record. That way you can be in the cockpit just doing your thing while the S-Cam is recording the interesting outside views…
