Hi,

I have Wideclient version 6.02

It's compatible with Windows XP or I must reinstalled Windows 98???

In another pc with Windows 98, it's all ok....!!!

Thank you !!!

You need to update wideclient first before Pete can help you further, please see the post below for download details.

ok. but why on the other PC the software connects and everything works? I need to update all PCs or only this?

[Andydigital]

Just try it on the PC you have problems with first.

What versions of windows are you using on each PC?

serveripaddr=192.168.000.009

Why not simply give the name of the Server? i.e. "ServerName=..."?

I am not sure how fussy windows is about how you spell the parameter names, but the above should be

ServerIPAddr=192.168.0.9

as shown in the example in the User Guide.

Of course, if both PCs are using WinXP SP1 or later, and they are in the same WorkGroup (as recommended), then you don't need to specify the IP address or the Name -- it is all automated for you.

      218 Error on client pre-Connection Select() [Error=10049] Can't assign requested address

I've no idea how WideClient ends up with getting 255.255.255.255 as the Server IP Address though. Are you absolutely sure that INI file is in the same folder as the WideClient you are using?

1) Flight simulator 2002 is compatible with Wideclient + Wideserver ver. 6.78 and with FSUIPC ver. 3.98 ???

Yes. The version of FS is not relevant.

By the way, there's a much later version of WideClient available in the Download Links subforum above. Check the Updates. WideClient is universally copmpatible with FSUIPC4 and any recent WideServer.
