Hello everyone, I usually fly in the pilot role, so I need to have the MFDs visible on top of the gunner's.
I have two monitors:
A: 27-inch monitor with 1920x1080 resolution
B: 11-inch monitor, with 1366x768 resolution
In order to view the pilot's MFDs alone, I have made the following changes to various files and a dual monitor setup I was already using for the F18.
1º- Change the name of the MFD in the file MFD_plt_right_init, by RIGHT_MFCD_PLT
2º- Change the name of the MFD in the file MFD_plt_left_init, by LEFT_MFCD_PLT
These files are located in the path
Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\AH-64D\Cockpit\Scripts\Displays\MFD\indicator
3º Copy and modify my monitor configuration file with the new parameters:

_ = function(p) return p; end;
name = _('2M_AH64_1920x1848');
Description = 'Pilot MFD AH64'

Once configured in the visual options of DCS the new file for the monitors works perfectly
