Gauges on a second network pc


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I would like to know if it's possible to display on the screen of a second pc some of the gauges of the main panel, or secondary panel windows. I've tried on the second screen of the same pc, but performance shuts down !

Has WideFS this capability ? or is there another product to buy ?

Thanks to all

No, it is completely impossible. FS's gauges are simply data management routines which use the graphics power of FS itself to display. They cannot run outside of FS. You would need to install a full copy of FS on the other PC and link the two installations of FS with WidevieW.

I suggest you investigate third party cpckpit offerings such as Project Magenta, and maybe FreeFD. There may be others. Links are provided on the right-hand side of the http://www.schiratti.com/dowson page. They interface to FS via FSUIPC and will therefore also work through WideFS.

Regards,

Pete

sorry I did not explain enaugh my idea. I want to install a second FS9 on the second computer, and links together to extend the display of the first FS. You told me WideView could do that ?

There are two ways that I know to link two or more copies of FS -- one is FS's own multiplayer, the other is WidevieW (not WideFS, note -- WidevieW is by Luciano Napolitano -- see http://www.wideview.it).

Regards,

Pete
