How to Join a Gaming Session Already in Progress

Noter asked if I could post some screenshots on how to enter a server already in progress. Thought I would post this here for any newcomers also looking for help.

Ok, with HyperLobby open, I would select the host's name (or any other mate playing in the server) from my Friends List by left-clicking on his/her name.

Then I would scroll down to Get player's information and left-click it.

This will open the server's information box. If this is a Dogfight server, folks can join at any time by clicking on the JOIN THIS SESSION box at the bottom left.

If this is a COOP/Campaign mission, however, there will be NO JOIN THIS SESSION box, and you may only join in between actual missions.

Therefore, you will need to log onto the Fightin' Irish's TeamSpeak server and inform the host that you are waiting to join. When the current mission is over you will be informed to jump into the session. You will do this by bringing up the Get player's information box and hitting the [ENTER] key. This is known as "the back door".

Only other thing to point out is that either TS is very selective of whom he flies with..... or he hasn't got many mates :p
