Just a little more info that may be of use. Looking at all of the other missions we have done and downloaded (FOB Vetka) all of the sound files are .ogg. In my missions I used .wav files making the files extremely large. ~15MB. Could there be a timeout issue for such a large file?

OK after some testing we found that when I created the mission I made some sound files to mimick the messages that were being broadcast to the coalition or all. When we removed all of the sound files the mission loads fine. Server PC has TPC and UDP packet forwarding on 10308. No sound files no problem. Sound files added it doesn't work.

I will try what you guys suggested. We did check the logs (all of them as far as we can see) with no apparent errors. We will try the resaving the file. The reason why he always hosts is because my ISP will not unblock what we need to host. Port 10308 I think. I have packet forwarding in my router but they just don't want to bother with us. He is also in downtown chicago with a T1 line so we rarely have issues with download/uploads. This was the first mission we had any problems with. Only other thing that comes to mind is that I did create some .Wav files for our mission and that was the first time I tried that. I will keep you posted. Thank you.

I build a mission from on my dedicated PC and had two planes one for me and one for my buddy. We were going to fly a teacher/student mission. We have run multiple missions for each other while learning to play this simulator. When I finished the mission I put it in a shared folder in dropbox like we always do. He downloads the mission and stores it in his Saved games mission folder. He loads up the server and we fly. For some reason whenever I try to connect to him I get connection interrupted. Sometimes I get Stream error. So we try to load a different mission. Then we have no issues connecting. We have the same version of A10. He can run the game in the MP server as a single player without issue. I can run the game in either plane, as well as he can as a "SP" mission. I run Helios in a pit and he is just getting started with his pit. Any reason why I cannot connect to him even though the mission works for both of us individually?
