WideFS supports 1 server (running FS) and any number of clients. My own system has 8 client PCs connected simultaneously.

Your "PC Client 2" must have a version of FS (or already another copy of WideClient) running as well. That is the ONLY way that error can arise.  Do not run WideClient on a PC running FS.

If it were possible, and assuming the reason you want WideClient on PC2 is to run some FSUIPC client application, how would your FSUIPC application know which "FS98MAIN" class Window to connect to? The whole reason it is not allowed is to avoid that problem.

 

You CAN run WideClient on the same PC as FS, or multiple copies of WideClient infact, by changing the INI file parameter "ClassInstance=0" to some non-zero number. This changes the Class name, thus avoiding the conflict. I believe there are one or two FSUIPC applications which can be configured to deal with this, but hardly any.

 

However, you CAN run Lua plugins on such a WideClient, and it will also allow the ButtonScreen facility and joystic buttons and so on to be transmitted.
