Highvolt Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Hi Pete, You once told me that I could use "ClassInstance=nn" in the wideclient.ini file. This would enable me to send data to multiple computers that have fs2004+wideserver running. (i modified the lib_source, so my program can talk to each FS98MAIN0x class seperatly) Is this 'Classinstance=nn' still supported ? I can't run the wideclient (with classname fs98main01) toghether with FS2004 anymore. My goal is to have one PC (server which runs FS2004) connected to 3 clients (also running fs2004), and provide those 3 clients with the same data. (Kinda what wideview from luciano does, but different goal) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it works fine here. Though I spell it "ClassInstance". Not sure if Windows is case insensitive for Profiles or not. The parameter needs to go int the [Config] section of the WideClient.ini file. There's never been any change to this since I added it, whenever. Regards, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highvolt Posted May 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Indeed, i accidently copied wideclient.exe (v5.5) instead of using the 6.101 one. It works now :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Indeed, i accidently copied wideclient.exe (v5.5) instead of using the 6.101 one. Current supported version is 6.221. You seem to be rather out of date in any case? Regards, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highvolt Posted May 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: Well, my program worked, but the updaterate is very low. Having 1 fs2004 and 2 wideclients open, and sending data through them to the 2 client pc's who are running wideserver can't be faster than 400msec (i was trying to duplicate wideview for a moment hehehe) I guess i have to create my own module with network capabilities to send data to some clients.

What's this running on, a Pentium 1GHz? Assuming the PC is fast enough to run FS2004, try limiting the latter's frame rate so it shares the processor a little more. Either that or make sure you use a Pentium 4 3GHz or better with hyperthreading enabled. Regards, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
