John,

As BW stated, VRC is no longer supported as a radar client in VATUSA. If you want to control Houston, I would suggest following the VATUSA process to join the ZHU ARTCC, there you will have access to their CRC files for Houston and all other airports in their ARTCC. But you will not be able to find the VRC files anymore as they are no longer maintained.

Hi John,

Most facilities no longer provide files for VRC as we have moved over to CRC. You can find more information at https://vnas.vatsim.net on how to use CRC!
