Pete, Sorry for my late answer. I will try your hints next week. Then I will setup my network only with Win98SE on every PC. I will change to TCP/IP. I hope this will do it. Otherwise I will try your suggestions and play a bit with WideFS. Thank you for the great support! Greetings from Switzerland Silvio Lottanti

Pete, You're right, maybe I have to change something in my network. I will use Win98SE on all PC and will get back to you asap. I hope this will work. Believe me, there is a delay of 20-30 seconds. Mainly on the XP clients. Maybe this is a XP. I try Win98SE and let you know the result. Thank yo very much for your help! Greetings from Switzerland Silvio Lottanti

Pete, I forgot the main thing, sorry. Ok, stepp by stepp. You saw the server.log befor. In the client.log, it always makes an entry that the connection was close by the server and that it will reconnect. I dont' know the version befor, sorry but I use Widefs versio 6.1 and Fsuipc version 3.08. I just reinstalled everything. I have now more problems than befor. The eicas shows no engine data and on the pfd there is the warning "No avionics". But i can fly like a bird...strange... I run Fs2000 on a PIII500 Mhz (please don't laugh;-) i know its a weak one:-)!) Frame rate is about 20 and when I add 2 miles visibility it goes up to 50! But the GC starts delaying... Here is my Server.ini file [Config] Port=8002 NoStoppedRestarts=Yes usetcpip=no ServerNode=0.0.1536.46377.48348 ; ----------------------------------------------- [user] Log=Errors+ followd by the keysends, but they work ok. Hope this is enough...Thanks Silvio

Pete, Here is the server.log Yes, GC runs 20-30 seconds behind FS2000. Sometimes it stoppes and jumps. I will post the Wideclient.log right now. Thanks, thanks thanks for taking the time! cheers Silvio ********* WideServer.DLL Log [version 6.10] ********* Using blocksize guide of 4096 bytes Date (dmy): 23/07/00, Time 16:53:44.430: Server name is IBM 62073 Initialising server socket now 62073 ServerNode=0.0.1536.46377.48348 62442 Incoming connection Accepted ok (skt=508) 62521 Connected to computer "PFD2" (skt=508) 63091 Incoming connection Accepted ok (skt=512) 63211 Connected to computer "SIMSOLUT-UNC6WR" (skt=512) 63415 Incoming connection Accepted ok (skt=516) 63536 Connected to computer "PFD1" (skt=516) 63622 Incoming connection Accepted ok (skt=520) 63622 Incoming connection Accepted ok (skt=524) 63622 Accept() failed!

Pete, Thank you for the fast reply! Yes, I know it sounds very strange...I will take a look in the wideserver.log file and let you know, what version exactely I'm using. Enrico told me that I should mention the version, but his email came 2 min. after I posted this message. I will let you know asap what version of widefs and fsuipc I'm using. Is it alright with you, when I post my .log here so that you can take a look at it? Thank you for the support. I'll get back to you soon. Greetings from Switzerland! Silvio Lottanti

Hi Pete! First of all thank you for making my hobby possible with widefs and Fsuipc! I have a problem with my setup in my homecockpit. Here it is: I have the latest version of FSUIPC and WideFS (both registerd) and the latest version of the PM GC software. I run a 7 PC network (Server with FS2000/Win 98SE, 3 WinXP, 2 Win98SE and 1 Win2000). The problem is when I set the visibility in FS2000 to 2 miles, the GC reacts 20 - 30 seconds later. For example: When I make a turn, the PFD shows me this turn after 20-30 seconds. I have the same problem when I fly throug a cloud layer. In the clouds, the PM software slows down and is about 20-30 seconds behind the actual flightposition. The same problem occures when I climb higher than 25000ft with clear weather and no clouds. Some times theres is the same delay with unlimited visibility and no clouds set. I've already asked the PM Group about help, but they said that the GC software is at the end of the chain. It only displays the data it gets from WideFS. I have this problem since I update my setup with the latest Widefs/FSUIPC/PM Software. Everything worked fine befor the update. I hope you can help me! Thanks in advance! Greetings from Switzerland Silvio Lottanti
