I've managed to sort this out now- thought I'd leave a post for anyone struggling with this. Main problems- fly Elise instructions are minimal and some are just wrong. Windows tries to be "helpful" and changes display settings which you don't always notice Fly Elise. Which file to use? If you are using a single pc, then it's the "singleprocalib" file If using multiple PC's networked together , then use the "multiprocalib" file. Once you have done the warping calibration and are back in the immersive pro software, go across to the "simulators" tab and click apply. If you make any changes, including changing to a new or different calib file, then you have to go back to that tab and click apply again- took me a long time to realise this and the simulator tab isnt even mentioned in the instructions. Dor dcs, desktop warping must be on, this is the opposite of what the fly Elise Instructions tell you, again took me a long time to realise that Once the desktop is good, go to dcs. Dcs settings Set resolution to the full amount to cover all your displays and monitors....layout can make it easier or harder to sort out your Helios stuff but it doesn't really matter. Full screen tick box- this appears to make no difference at all.... If anyone is struggling, please reach out as I know how painful it is

Ok, so chatgpt tells me I should definitely be using the "singleprocalib" file, despite the fly Elise instructions....as the multi file is for using multiple PC's linked together. Ill concentrate on this route

Hi everyone- Sorry to drag this one up again but I cant quite get it working having searched the threads and its driving me mad!!! I have a three projector setup with a full cockpit that has a 4th monitor for instruments, trying to use helios to display them in there. using fly elise to warp the projector images, using immersive calibration pro to do the alignment without a camera... Ill explain where I am and attach some files- I think the problem is in the monitorsetup lua file... SO.. I used nvidia control panel to configure the three projectors into a single large display using nvidia surround. set windows display up to match, with the 4th monitor to the right of the now single projector display. projector display set to 3072 x 768 monitor is 1366 x 768 ran immersive calibration pro and warped the projectors, got a good image at the end. then exported the files for DCS, it gave me a load of files. then ran the main fly elise immersive pro software, which correctly shows the single projector display and a second one to the right which is the monitor. Right clicked on the projector display and chose the external calibration, selecting the "multiprocalib" file then went to the "simulators" tab and chose dcs, it showed up the directory paths for the dcs root directory and the saved games/dcs/config/monitorsetup clicked apply, it stated "applied to files" or similar HELIOS setup helios to match the displays using the t45 profile to get going All looks well- green on all the interface and monitor sections. DCS OK, so If i start DCS go to settings in the new launch screen and choose 3072 x 1024 (bear with me i know thats wrong) and choose the fly elise file under "monitors" then when running dcs I get a perfect warped main game image on the projectors which looks great. I also have the analogue instruments working on the 4th monitor in helios, BUT no MFD's..... If I set DCS to the full resolution of 4438 x 768 and choose "Helios" in the monitors option, then I lose the warping in the main game image but get helios working perfectly with the mfd's displayed If I set DCS to 3072 x 1024 and use the "helios" momitor option then I have no warping on the projectors AND no mfd's. I have tried copying in the fly-elise displays part of the monitorsetup lua file into the helios lua file and then using that , but then I get the main game display going across the projected display AND the monitor!!! Im sure its getting the lua file just right but I cant quite get there!!! Any help with this appreciated....with the lack of fly-elise instructions Ive been fighting with it all for about 6 months!!! Regards Les Helios.lua MonitorSetup.lua

Thanks mate, Much appreciated - still can't quite figure it out! If I set thf dcs monitor option to 'helios' then i get the mfd's in the right place, but no screen warping. If I set it to the fly Elise option then I get screen warping back but the mfd's up on the main display rather than with the rest of the instruments on the monitor!

ill have a look- im still learning lua files but might be able to find it

nullhope that comes out- theres a block of controls which are a darker colour and cant be selected to assign a control- only a key press can be assigned Ive checked for clashes with joystick and cant see any obvious problems

Hi, will do- I'll take a screen shot tonight Looks like the only module I have with this problem

Hi all, got an odd one- love this aircraft, but can't assign many of the cockpit switches to my physical switches- they are greyed out in the controls tab...any ideas?

Hi- I have a new problem !! Wonder if you came across this- I now can't get the mfd's to display on the monitor, they are up in the top left of the left side projector image! The rest of the Helios display is all good. I tried setting the dcs resolution to include the monitor but then I get the main projector display messed up!!! Used to run fine so I'm not sure what I've accidentally changed!! Cheers Les

Hi, were you able to solve this? I have the exact same setup. I'm using fly-elise to warp / blend the 3 projectors. I can get Helios to display the dashboard and analogue instruments but the mfd's only appear if I set dcs resolution to include the instrument monitor.....but then of course the warping is all wrong!! For your problem , I think go to Nvidia surround, select your projectors. Then go back up a level - on the left there's an option called multi monitor settings or similar.....in there you can turn the 4th screen back on. I think that's how I did that part

Hi, My phone is now the only place I can login so I may not be able to reply for long if it too requires authentication soon... Accessing the forum on my phone has asked for Google authenticator app code....this thing is always a nightmare in my experience. I have set it up but the forum just won't accept any of the codes it produces....any ideas? Id hate to leave the forum but quite honestly it's not my bank account and spending 2hrs to access a forum isn't my idea of fun

Hi , I'm the SIM officer at an air cadets sqn- we use fly Elise in a three projector set up- it is problematic to say the least, but..... Your screen alignment looks great, are you sure you have 270', with our three projectors we have built a rig with 180' it's hard to tell from the video but yours looks about 190' ( I'm sure you have checked all this) try changing that number, even if the screen is 270' , changing that number will alter the view and might help. I'm about to switch our SIM from P3d to dcs due to the endless P3d problems , I'll let you know when I have it sorted and see if I can help

It looks to be ai trigger zones in the mission, as soon as you delete them it's all relatively smooth again.....

Great suggestion mate, it's definitely the ai triggers.....

Ok, by working gradually building up a mission, the main issue is ai triggers and zones, when you introduce them it causes a huge slowdown, as soon as you delete the triggers it speeds up again; that's for the F1; haven't tried the f5e yet. Suggestion was from someone on another thread, great idea to try. Doesn't help us if we want to use it in missions but at least we know where the problem is
