Duncan White Posted August 10, 2019 at 03:19 AM Posted August 10, 2019 at 03:19 AM Hi, I currently use XSquawkbox to connect to VATSIM. It has an enable proxy feature which allows my two visual x-plane pc's to connect to the master x-plane pc XSquawkbox. All this means I can see VATSIM aircraft on all five of my external visual displays. Can I do something similar with Swift or will I be restricted to only seeing aircraft on screens connected to my master x-plane machine ? Cheers, Duncan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claude ROULLIER Posted August 10, 2019 at 02:05 PM Posted August 10, 2019 at 02:05 PM Hi Duncan, We use this feature to fly in a shared cockpit (Using SmartCopilot). Of course, in this case, the second pilot (OBS (copilot) will use his own ID and p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]word. The problem we have: On the OBS pilot side, only very near traffic is catch (May be less than 5 miles), as well on the Radar tab of swift, in external visual, and as TCAS alert. As a ticket is opened here: https://dev.swift-project.org/T703, can you share your experience? Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan White Posted August 11, 2019 at 12:13 PM Author Posted August 11, 2019 at 12:13 PM This is what I plan to do. Screens 1,2,3,4,5 from left to right. Computer One (X-Plane Master) (screen 3) Install Swift Core (Audio on core side). Install XSwiftBus Computer Two (X-Plane Visuals) (screen 1 & 2) Install Swift Gui (more convenient for the gui to be here) Install XSwiftBus Computer Three (X-Plane Visuals) (screen 4 & 5) Install XSwiftBus My only concern is will the AI aircraft be drawn on all 5 screens. If not I will stick with XSquawkbox which can do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude ROULLIER Posted August 11, 2019 at 06:54 PM Posted August 11, 2019 at 06:54 PM Thank you for your answer, Fantastic and interesting setup. Will see what will happen with the traffic on screens 1,2 and 4,5, on ground and in flight. PS: On our side we use the X-CSL package recently updated with the X-CSL updater 1.20.
