Wideclient possibilties !!!!!!!!


Recommended Posts

Hi

Sorry if this the wrong place for that guys...

&

Firstly nobody tell me about tweaking because I have all of them and everything is okay)....

So I see the 2nd PC through a wideclient is essential to me simply due to :

I need to use another PC in my home cockpit to avoid the performance when I undock at least five or six panels from the PMDG737NGX to my six screens. Also the PRO ATC, FDC, and the other external instrument gauges. Now I use all of this addons with REX4, FSGRW, FTX GLOBAL+VECTOR, MY TRAFFIC2013 etc...... I run all these things at one PC and I get performance hitting & the system is unstable...cuz that is not possible on one PC..

Now lock at my idea carefully guys and post if there is impossible or wrong thing in my idea.

The 2nd PC will run PMDG737NGX (with undocking all the six panels to thier places in my six monitors which connect to the second PC), also run the PRO ATC, FDC, and VRINSIGHT & GOFLIGHT softwares to operatee all my VRI & GF hardwares & yokes, cables, throttles etc. (All of this with a low fsx graphical settings in the 2nd PC with tweaks surely).

The main pc will run fsx also (but at high graphical leveks with tweaks, sure) through my BENQ W1070HD3D PROJECTOR, and dun REX4, FSGRW, the PMDG737NGX (but without any panel undocking, FTX GLOBAL VECTORS, and alk the sceneries which I fly through...

Is all of this is possible with the wide client tool ??????

Thsnks a lot guys for ur reading anyway.....

No. You are misunderstanding what WideClient does. It is an extender only for the FSUIPC application interface. WideClient runs on the non-FS PCs supporting FSUIPC applications on those PCs communicating to FSUIPC on the FS PC. It does not run on PCs which are also running FS.

 

In your case you could use it to run some of your applications on another PC, away from FS. Those are probably PROATC, FDC, FSGRW, and maybe some GOFLIGHT gear -- but not yokes and pedals which need to be on the FS PC. Your REX, FTX GLOBAL and TRAFFIC apps are only textures and scenery files in any case and don't really use processing power whilst using FS, only when setting up different textures etc beforehand.

 

The PMDG aircraft for FSX do not run without their panels -- they are there and operating even if you don't display them, and though they can be undocked they cannot be moved to other PCs. The only aircraft I'm aware of which is made to work like that is the iFly 737NG cockpit edition. I do know folks using the PMDG 737NG model from FS9 on FSX, with no panels at all, and using Project Magenta, SimAvionics or Prosim737 software for networking the instrumentation, but this cannot be done with the PMDG FSX versions.

 

There is a program called WidevieW, by Luciano Napolitano, which links multiple PCs all running FS. You might find this will do closer to what you want, but even then I don't think you can distribute the panels of the PMDG 737NGX.

 

Hope this helps.
