Multiplayer Problem/Question

[Aeroz]

Hi guys,

 

I recently bought LOMAC Flaming Cliffs, and this is my first venture into the general Flight-Combat Sim game community. I'm enjoying learning and all, but I figured I'd go online and get a few real-time tips. So I download Hyperlobby which is what I'm apparently supposed to use for online in FC according to a sticky I read on their site. So I get in make a log-in and whatnot, and I'm looking at the servers and I pick one and hit connect (or w/e it said), and then I get a message saying "common.dll not found, re-installing application may fix this error". Naturally, I tried a few more times and to my dismay no luck. I really would like it if someone could help me out here, because online play is a HUGE part of what I wanted to do in LOMAC, and it basically just destroys my purchase if I can't play online.

 

That was my problem, heres my question:

 

I read about how LOMAC has an awesome community and is absolutely the best online Combat Sim out there. Yet, when I log-in to Hyperlobby I saw 42 players IN ALL. Now, am I doing something wrong, or is that the actual amount of players online. I mean, the game is obviously worldwide due to the languages I've seen, and in all the world only 42 people are playing? Is that a joke? Am I missing something?

 

Thanks for your time and I would greatly appreciate some answers.

There are many "clubs" who organize multiplayer session, read the internet URL in the running missions' description.
