Dose AdvDisplay work with FsX

No. AdvDisplay is no longer supported in any case, even for FS9. It was effectively replaced by the in-built FSUIPC Window facility in FSUIPC back in version 3.60 (in April).

What makes you ask now? Have you checked the FSUIPC window facilities?

Regards

Hi Peter,

I was using Advdisplay with Showtext on a network computer.

I want to display Radar Contact (or any other text) on a network computer screen.

Wath should I be using for this?

Thanks

Ian

ShowText will work with FSUIPC3 (since 3.60) and FSUIPC4 and WideFS without AdvDisplay being installed. Just run it as usual. Didn't you even try it?

The options bottom left on the main front page of FSUIPC's options control what happens with the FSUIPC display window in FS. Please take a quick look at the documentation.

Regards

I think I have to read your documentation, I have not really been looking into it since a long time.

No, it is not supported, not needed, and it doesn't work in FSX. It dates back to FS98 and FS2000 days. The facilities it provided are included in FSUIPC, on the first options (front) page.
