Suggestion request for complex P3D + ASP3D setup in net env


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi all,
I have a problem with using ActiveSky P3D on my setup and I am looking for help from anyone who can give me suggestions or point me in the right direction.
My flight simulator setup is as follows: a Windows 10 server PC with P3D v4.5 that controls the avionics (no external view but just a mix of Mobiflight, LUA scripts, etc.) and 3 client PCs, always Windows 10, each with P3D v5.4 that are used to display the external view of the cockpit. As a weather engine I use ActiveSky P3D installed on the server and via WideView the weather should be synchronized on the clients. This solution does not seem to work well because the weather is correct on the server but not on the clients and this is annoying. I contacted the developer of WideView about this topic but he never responded. I have a fifth PC on the network that I use for other AddOns (P2A, Navigraph Chart, etc.) and I thought about using it for ActiveSky. Do you think it is possible to do something like this and what configurations should I do on the client (install and configure ASConnector, write downloaded files from the AS server to the client file system, other)? I tried to contact HiFi for a guide to install ASP3D in a network environment but they never answered me clearly.
A change of configuration (for example from 4 to one PC) is not an option due to the complexity of the simulator.
Does anyone have any suggestions or guidelines?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Alessandro
