rlw1000 Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 I have currently have a server and 2 clients. The server runs fsx; the clients provide side views via WideView (IPX). Another pc generates the weather via AS and WideFS. I have noticed that the clients systematically "blink" in the upper 1/8 of the screen. I have changed the WideFS protocals as well as the WideView protocal. Luciano suggested that I contact you regarding WideFS. I can eliminate the blinking when I disable the weather option in WideView. This does not occur when I use the fsx weather themes. There is something about updating the weather that appears to cause the problem. I have also experimented with graphics card settings to no avail. I have the latest versions of WideFS and WideView and fsuipc. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Robert P.S. All OSes are XP-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 I have noticed that the clients systematically "blink" in the upper 1/8 of the screen. What is on the WideFS client screen to blink? You mean the Windows wallpaper? Regards Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlw1000 Posted March 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 WideFS is on a separate client running AS. It does not blink. It is the clients with the outside views (and the server) that blinks periodically and during weather updates. Luciano suggested that it might be a WideFS issue rather than WideView. Also, the same setup in fs9 (with the appropriate fsuipc, WideFS, and WideView) works perfectly. I appreciate your help, Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sue it isn't a video driver problem? None of my software inter-relate to any graphics on screen whatsoever. Note that if you are using FSX with ASX, WideFS and FSUIPC are not involved in any case. ASX is a SimConnect program. If you are still using ASV6 with FSX I think you need to update.

rlw1000 Posted March 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Thanks--I thought that might have been the case but the problem persists using fsx (Jeppesen weather--no AS and no WideFS)-- Regards, Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
