Hi Pete, I'm pleased to say that your last version 7.1.4.0 works perfectly on my 2 systems. I didn't have to delete the colour section. So a big thank you to have suceeded to fix this annoying behaviour. Take care

Thanks a lot of all your work Pete!!! I'll be able to test only on next Saturday. I'll let you know of course.

No, it takes some seconds (3-4s) once P3D is active to connect. I don't see the blinking every time, just once that makes me think it was too soon to redraw. Here are the files. WideClient.log WideServer.log

I can see window blinking while it's trying to connect to P3D. It does that 3 times then when connected turns black. Maybe redrawing too soon and time to connect too long compared to you?

Hello, I just tried and it's the same thing still having to touch a button, change dimension... WideClient logfiles tell it's effectively 7.02 version.

Thank you very much Pete. I'll try it tomorrow but I guess if it works for you it will for me. Anyway I'll let you know. Sorry for my delayed answer I was out all week.

Thanks Pete. Yes, it would be great if you make a change to avoid having to do something manually with the window. Michel

Hello, I have a problem on my two systems. Maybe it's related to graphics driver but it's strange because I didn't modify the settings. I use WideClient with buttons facility. When WideClient starts, the buttons are all grey without text, so it's OK. As soon it's connected to the server, the window turns black until I move or redimension the window and the buttons reappear. One client is on Windows 7 64 bits with 385.41 nvidia driver. I update the graphic driver to see and with the last 390.77 it's the same problem. On the other system, it runs on Windows 10 64 bits. I've to check the driver version but I think it's the last one. Everything was working fine before. But before what I don't know. . ********* WideClient Log [version 6.999z4] Class=FS98MAIN ********* Date (dmy): 25/02/18, Time 16:33:50.924: Client name is PC-SUPERVISION 765 c:\program files (x86)\maarten boelens\simlauncherx 765 C:\Program Files (x86)\Maarten Boelens\SimLauncherX\SimLauncherX.exe 780 LUA: "D:\Outils P3D\WideClient\Initial.LUA": not found 796 Attempting to connect now 796 Trying to locate server: Need details from Server Broadcast 796 Failed to connect: waiting to try again 1857 Attempting to connect now 23869 Trying to locate server: Need details from Server Broadcast 152944 Server = PC-VISU 152944 Trying TCP/IP host "PC-VISU" port 8002 ... 152944 ...

Hello, Do you know if there's a bundle with a special price for buying FSUIPC5 and WideFS7 together? Thanks in advance, Michel

Hi, So I updated to the last FSUIPC and WideFS versions, 4958 + 4958f and 6999z2. I thought I was OK first because at first run of P3D, programs on PC Instruments showed the value of PC Visu (master with P3D). I ran again P3D and instruments showed values of the PC over Internet, so not for the good aircraft like before the update. Anyway you have all the datas zipped by PC. It has been recorded after the problem occurs again. On PC Supervision I have a program to record time of use based on some offsets and it works fine. Hope it could help to find what's wrong. pc visu.zip pc supervision.zip pc instruments.zip

Thank you Pete!!! I'll try on next Saturday as the simulator is not in my home. I didn't update P3D for now because it requires several changes on all the PC (AS Next....) and tests and I don't have time to do it. But I will, I guess during Christmast holidays ;-) Anyway, I'll check with 4.958f version and let you know what User ID it receives. Thank you to be always there to help and improve things if necessary.

Don't be sorry. It's due to my bad English. :-) Yes, the values are provided by the distant PC over Internet and not the one that I made the setup for. But only when I'm connected in a Multiplayer session. The values come from the right PC (in the local network) when I'm not in multiplayer mode. Sorry I don't have the log files at the moment, but I remember to have set PC name instead of IP address. The all 4 PCs have different names. Maybe I'll have to force by IP address in the config files... Thanks

Hello, I tried today to fly in the multiplayer session with 2 distant PC on P3D v3.2 and via Internet (connected directly by IP). The server for the session was a PC without Wide FS. The client was on a setup with 3 PC connected via Wide FS. I made some programs to display instruments on a remote PC. These programs are in C using IPC and FSUIPC libraries (definitions... in IPCuser.h, IPCuser.c, FSUIPC_User.h). Everything works fine until I connect to multiplayer. Since I'm connected the displayed values on the instruments are those of the aircraft on the server PC for the session. Did you experienced such a behaviuour? Did I made a mistake in the programs?

Thank you Pete for your answer. Yes, I checked these files, everything was connected. Wide Server showed all the applications. Finally I checked the firewall on the remote PC and it was activated though I set it off. I don't know why it has been activated again, but anyway it works fine now like before. I don't know why just the floating variables were concerned. Maybe they use other ports not set by default... I have another problem but not related to this problem. I'll post another message. Thanks again.

Hello, I've a problem with WideFS since a non desired reboot of all the 3 PCs of my network while P3D was running. It worked well before this event. I upgraded to the last version of both FSUIPC and WideFS and for all PCs. Now, I can't see offset like ground speed and rpm changing on only one remote PC. These offset remain at 0 on this remote PC, except offsets like pause is updating with the correct value. On the other remote PC rpm is read perfectly. I can see that with FSInterrogate of program developped with SDK. On the server PC with P3D v3.2, FSInterrogate show me that all the offset are changing. I tried to compare ini files in the Widecleint directory but there's no difference with the backup. What could be wrong ? Thanks in advance

I don't know, I'll check that. Thank you mgh! Anyway if it's the right explanation, I'll go on with the source as it works fine.

Hello I'm using wxDev-C++ using MingW gcc, a C compiler to make standalone gauges and I had problem using FSUIPC.lib. It seems the linker doesn't find the routines in the lib or its compilation is not compatible. I had to include the source IPCuser.c and .h to make it works. The lib is a part of the UIPC_SDK_C.zip file. It's not really a problem but I wanted to understand. Anyway thank you very much Pete to have included the sources and for everything you do for us.
