Wide FS,Roger Wilco And Squawk Box


Recommended Posts

Hi All

Im Using two machines both running WinXP Pro and both networked, I'm using Wide FS which works fine I can connect to VATSIM etc running sqkw box on my second machine. However when I connect, Roger Wilco doesn't autoload and it wont auto switch when changing freqs using the atc directory can anyone help?.

I'm using Roger Wilco on the main FS2002 Machine and not on the machine running Wide Client and tried both roger wilco versions 1C and 1D without any luck.

Thanks In Advance

Steve

I'm using Roger Wilco on the main FS2002 Machine and not on the machine running Wide Client and tried both roger wilco versions 1C and 1D without any luck.

I'm afraid I don't know anything about Squawkbox or Roger Wilco, and I certainly wasn't aware that RW "autoloads" -- how does it do that? What loads it? It won't load itself unless it has some background process or driver running to do this for it.

If SB has a facility to load RW, then of course it cannot when SB is not even on the same PC.

The same may apply to this switching of frequencies -- I don't know any "ATC directory" (is this in SB?), but if SB feeds frequencies to RW, it won't find it if it's on the other PC, now will it?

None of this is anything at all to do with WideFS or FS. Roger Wilco is NOT an FS Application as such, it doesn't interface to FSUIPC or WideFS, it is an entirely separate program. Only FSUIPC client applications can communicate via WideFs, and then only if they are programmed to do this.

Regards,

Pete

Hi,

Please use RW on the SAME computer where is running SB and everything should go into the order...
