October 3, 200916 yr Commercial Member Hi, I am shortly building a second PC, to use in FSX and to start making my own photoscenery on. I am planning on getting the wideview software to amximise the potential of FSX. I also use TileProxy, so would be interested if anyone is also using this with two PC's and or wideview and if they could post their expereinces on setting up and getting the most from this arrangement. I have read the software FAQ , but am interested in user's experiences.Thank you, Mark
October 3, 200916 yr Its great since it allows me to offload the work from my FSX machine. Now I don't have programs eating valuable resources that would make FSX run better. Its very easy to setup also. I currently use on my WideFS machine:AirHaulerFSCommanderAISmoothASARadar Contact Christopher Edwards
October 5, 200916 yr Excelent experience!Useing Proflight2000/PFE, FDC, FSC, ASA, and AISmooth with this configuration.Highly recommended it.RTH
October 5, 200916 yr What is most important from a hardware perspective for the 2nd system? I'm guessing that it is CPU all the way?I'm thinking about having my current system run ASA networked with a new I7 system.

October 5, 200916 yr Author Commercial Member Hi Guys, thanks for the reply, but I think the first 2 replies are not using wideview, but wideFS. The programmes are similar I believe, but wideview allows two PC' s to be networked together to run FSX simultaineously. The link is here: http://www.wideview.it/wideview.htmMy goal is to maximise CPU useage on both machines. cheers, Mark
October 5, 200916 yr Wideview I have used for many years.The idea is that you have one "panel" pc and one or more " outside view" pc's.On the panel pc you can put all your view detail settings to minimum and therefore taking a lot of stress from the pc.The outside view pc's run in slew mode and do not have to calculate all instruments or better said the main Fs thread. So they also will have more " room to breath" and you can put the sliders to more detail.This combination will give maximum performance. 5950x3d 5.4-5.7 GHz - Asus ROG 870 Crosshair Apex - GSkill Neo 2x 24 Gb 6000 mhz / cas 26 - MSI RTX 5090 Gaming Trio OC - 1x SSD M2 6000 2TB - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 1Tb - Corsair 5400 case - Corsair 360 liquid cooling set - 3x 75’ TCL tv. 13600 6 cores @ 5.1 GHz / 8 cores @ 4.0 GHz (hypterthreading on) - Asus ROG Strix Gaming D - GSkill Trident 4x Gb 3200 MHz cas 15 - Asus TUF RTX 4080 16 Gb - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 2TB - 2x Sata 600 SSD 500 Mb - Corsair D4000 Airflow case - NXT Krajen Z63 AIO liquide cooling - FOV : 200 degrees My flightsim vids : https://www.youtube.com/user/fswidesim/videos?shelf_id=0&sort=dd&view=0
October 6, 200916 yr Thanks for the correction Mark. You are 100% correct. In my reply I was mistaken and talking about WideFS, not Wideview.
