Hello everyone
So i was reading the ASI thread and started considering building my own gauges. I went and looked at FI's and Simkits Gauges and started thinking about some questions that i haven't seen answers for.
Are any of the gauges out there able to run on a networked PC? I am more interested in building my own with Mike Powell's book but i started wondering if I built say 12 gauges (the basic 6, one set for the pilot and one set for the co-pilot) what type of load would i be putting on my PC? would that make my flight sim run with less frame rates? Would i get gauges that stutter or could not keep up with the flight sim simply because there are so many gauges needing data? If any of you builders have experience with this type of setup or any setup that uses alot of gauges could you help shed some light on this subject for me.
Thanks
