	yeah you can do all kinds of crazy things with those clamps and the screw layouts on each device. get some oversized m5 screws and bob's your uncle

	Imagine thats possible - Helios manages it like this: _ = function(p) return p end name = _('Helios') description = 'Generated from compatible Helios Profiles' function reconfigure_for_unit(unit_type) if unit_type == "Ka-50" or false then KA_50_ABRIS = { x = 2485, y = 2280, width = 751, height = 900 } KA_50_SHKVAL = { x = 1457, y = 2164, width = 1012, height = 629 } return end -- _Ka-50 if unit_type == "Ka-50_3" or false then KA_50_3_ABRIS = { x = 2487, y = 2424, width = 748, height = 748 } KA_50_3_SHKVAL = { x = 1457, y = 2164, width = 1014, height = 760 } return end -- _Ka-50_3 AH_64D_EUFD_PLT = { x = 1580, y = 1500, width = 700, height = 350 } AH_64D_LEFT_MFCD_PLT = { x = 685, y = 2416, width = 768, height = 768 } AH_64D_RIGHT_MFCD_PLT = { x = 2477, y = 2416, width = 768, height = 768 } TEDAC = { x = 1453, y = 2160, width = 1024, height = 768 } end -- reconfigure_for_unit() Viewports = { Center = { x = 0, y = 0, width = 3840, height = 2160, aspect = 1.77777777777778, dx = 0, dy = 0 } } UIMainView = Viewports.Center GU_MAIN_VIEWPORT = Viewports.Center

	That looks about right. Did you fix it? Is your screen space in DCS set to 3440x2918 or thereabouts? I'm here to ask if anyone has got PLT/CPG swapping working ok at the moment. Winwing's simapppro used to do some magic to make it work fluidly, but I can't get anything going in my monitor config, whether SAP, Helios, the mod files from page one here, or just vanilla editing right now.

	This isn't an unqualified endorsement but https://store.steampowered.com/app/227260/DisplayFusion/ is currently on steam sale. You can set up profiles for how you want your monitors (including ones where the mip screens are deactivated if you're not using them) and a keyboard shortcut to activate each. Sometimes its buggy and doesn't quite do what you expect but its updated, has active forums and dev response etc.

	Had this bookmarked but never used - worth a look? https://joystick-diagrams.com/features/

	@brettt777 wwtExport.lua try copying that file over the one in the modded \Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\wwt folder
 - 
	Err remember the f16 was disabled due to the conflict with the winwing icp.. Something in the main files needs to be changed to get it to work again i think? I got it going again at some point.
 - 
	All hail @prestonflying for making this possible. You can make it show whatever you tell it to. It's easiest to get it to show basic info:alt, airspeed etc but anything else reflected on live displays are possible. Most of my edits are hopefully useful but reflect superficial knowledge of modules, eg you really want comms channels or tacan not things in your hud at all times etc, but learning as we go lol

				What did I think of Kiowa? It needs to improve in some areas!
Wostg replied to ThorBrasil's topic in DCS: OH-58 Kiowa
nothing to contribute except to say I love the "JOY_BTN<number>_OFF" feature so much for the big red virpil toggle switches- 592 replies

				How to connect more than 4 monitors
Wostg replied to SrSosio's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
I read the auto-translation and noted some things to check: You should be careful that it: 1. Will carry data (the translation said "Important Note: 1. Only the stand can provide charging, it can not pass the video data; 2. It can be used to charge from the USB port to a device such as hard drive with HDMI port. It doesn't work to charge from the HDMI port to the USB port.") 2. That it sends data in the right direction (some cables only go one-way) Good luck! - 
	
	
				How to connect more than 4 monitors
Wostg replied to SrSosio's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Appreciate you might have invested in what you've got, but if you can't get those working there are usb monitors (like the winwing mips) and also you can turn old tablets and phones into monitors using free software like spacedesk or deskreen - 
	I don't know anything about Tekcreations, but I'd guess your only issue would be making sure their listings in your exports file are ordered correctly. I think WW's entry usually likes to be at the top but its easy enough to move them around (keep backups)
 - 
	dumb question - does the new engine automatically add some effect throughout (e.g. appearance of new, if minimal, lighting on a sunny summer's afternoon on a Nevada-based tutorial mission) or just where you've specifically applied relevant weather affects to a specific mission, e.g. applied to a cold winter's morning in Kola via mission editor. Thank you!

	Update your displaylink drivers from https://www.synaptics.com/products/displaylink-graphics/downloads Get the Displaylink manager app from https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9n09f8v8fs02?launch=true&mode=full&hl=en-gb&gl=gb&ocid=bingwebsearch In the Displaylink Manager app you can change the brightness and contrast and maybe some other settings. Its worth trying. Try swapping the cables between each monitor? Then try Winwing's support system. Some people don't like them but I've found them helpful.
 - 
	That sucks - tried different usb ports? Same balance in displaylink software / windows display?
 - 
	The sabrent 16x hub has worked a treat, has buttons for each port, doesnt seem to make the screens fight each other etc.

				Can anyone recommend a good, small desk extender?
Wostg replied to The_Chugster's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Likewise the virpil mouse adapter on one of their desk mounts extends out nicely (and I really liked their starry skies mousepad) - 
	
	
				Black Fri - Amazon - Crucial T705 - £189
Wostg replied to Mr_sukebe's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
I thought you guys were riffing on the bit about needing to see wear tests before you'd consider touching them, per the moza ffb thread. We need to see loadtimes after a week at persistent 100°C! - 
	Could you firmware-set the axes to button in the VPC software first? (no I don't understand how any of that works, thank you for asking)
 - 
	glad the first part was simple...thats weird though. i know in mine the numbers sap shows are totally different to windows but makes no difference in the layout. try making sure theyre all set to extend, (inc main didplay) un / reinstalling sap, rebooting and working through the config steps again?
 - 
	Quick guess - in windows display settings, is the one that shows set to "duplicate" when it should be set to "extend"?
 - 
	Do the error marks give any mouseover hints?
