    Wideview help?

    I am running wideview on 2 computers. Panels on the server and outside visuals on the client computer. I don't think its possible to run one or two of the panels from the aircraft model on the client computer,am I right or am I doing something wrong?

    If its not possible to run a panel (annunciator panel) from the client,, would it be possible to run WideFs on the client computer to be able to run a panel or two.

    Thanks.

    To my knowledge Wideview does not support running panels on client pcs. Wide fs however can be used, but not with standard fs panels. You would need to use programs designed specifically for this purpose.
    I use the Peix GA panel on a slave pc for my MIP when flying GA and VASfmc for flying the heavies (Vasfmc is a free program too!). Both work on the second pc and require WideFS to run them.

    Hi,
    Thats is correct,client only for Visuals.WideFs is used to run 3rd party Panels.Like Project Majenta ect.It would be possible to run it on the Client but once again it might affect the Visual performance.Pc are so cheap u can get an extra and run Panel on that one.The idea of Wideview was to get the Visuals onto its own pc to give it max performance.U really dont wont to bog down your Graphics display with anything other than Scenery.

    Thanks, I thought so. I'll come up with something else.
