AusRad 0 Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 First of all, I do think FSMap is a fine peace of work and enjoying using this prog.My problem/question is this:Have two PCs(Win XP Pro & FS9) networked together via WideFS and working just fine. If I want to use FSMap while the Server(FSim PC) and Client(PC2) are connected, do I have to install FSMap on the Server or Client.And if installed on the Server, what files need to be put on the Client or if installed on the Client do I need to have certain files (database e.g.) on the Server.I tried installing the main program on the Server and with mapping/sharing certain folders I get FSMap on the client but cannot see the Maps and when the button connect to FSim in pressed, all the functions left of the map side are greyed out. Although the server's title bar indicates FSMap now connected to Fs9.What am I doing wrong, can anybody help me out please. thanks and cheers from Down UnderRichard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Molitor 24 Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Hi,installation depends on what you want to use. If you want to use the gauge you need to install FSMap on the FS PC. If you want to use the FSMap app under WideFS you only need to install it on the remote PC. If you want both you have to install it twice. Please don't copy any FSMap files as this might result in unexpected behavior.RegardsThomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Molitor 24 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Yes you need to install it on both machines. The gauge requires the map + configuration installed on the same machine.Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
