Clarification on coexistence of widefs ver. 6 AND 7

[Thanos68]

Peter good day,

quoting from simmarket on widefs7

"The package is therefore in two parts. You will need to download FSUIPC4.zip and WideFS.zip. The latter contains WideServer.DLL version 6 (which you don’t use with FSX), and a version 6 of WideClient.EXE, which is 100% compatible with FSUIPC4 and the WideServer version 7 it incorporates."

Does this mean that - apart from the fsuipc4 and widefs7 - I can also use the wideserver 6 and wideclient 6 version with my FS9 that co-exists in my pc with FSX?

Could be any sort of trouble using the same duo of pcs as "fs_server" and "fs_clients" for both fs9 and fsX.

I'm a registered user of fsuipc3 at the moment.

Thanks for all your work and support over the years.

Yes of course. That's the whole point of keeping WideFS 100% compatible!

Could be any sort of trouble using the same duo of pcs as "fs_server" and "fs_clients" for both fs9 and fsX

No. Why should there be? Just don't run both FS9 and FSX at the same time! Not that you'd want to (and I doubt that you can).

Thanks a lot Peter,

just the reply I was looking forward to.

Kind Regards

Just one clarification, in case you misunderstand. The same WideFS key will not enable both WideServer 6 and WideServer 7. You'd need to register both.
