Nice work. Do you have any measured drawings that you'd share with the community?

I figured it out. I was following some youtube tutorials about graphic settings and one user suggested running DCS as an admin to boost performance. For some reason by doing this it didn't allow DCS to work with the steam decks. When I went back and unselected "run as admin" it worked again. Not sure why, but it does. Just out of curiosity if anyone can explain why this is so I'd love to learn why. Thanks again.

Any updates on the KU?

Thanks for the reply Rudel_chw I have attached the log files below. Logs.zip

Just recently my keyboard and streamdecks and one other additional button box are not being recognized by DCS. They work fine in windows though. I've been messing around with the graphics settings a little bit with the new multithreading but I cant see how that would have any effect on that issue. Does anyone have any ideas about what might be the problem? TIA

@JackFlash Just recently the dimmer knobs stopped working on my Total Controls MPDS. They still dim the MPDS in game, but the TV monitors are not responding like they used to. Do you have any ideas what I can trouble shoot? Thanks

I'm going to be a customer for this product. Any updates on release date?

Yeah I don't do VR. My son has a head set and while I will admit I did try it while just sitting in the cockpit on the runway, I was freaking awesome. I have tried VR a few times and found. Get violently motion sick and I can feel the effects even days later. I have no desire to try to train my brain to deal with it, 2d (pancake) is plenty immersive for me. The only thing I could ever see me doing to make it more immersive is adding a motion platform but they are very expensive.

These are the screens I used. VSDISPLAY 10.4" 10.4 Inch 800x600... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09332N7MH?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share The work great. I can link you a video I used to set them up with the code for the Lua file. Does take a bit of tinkering with the numbers to get them lined up perfectly but not too hard. The monitors are 800x600 so when setting up the Lua files you need to change it to 600x600 because the frames are square, then it's just a matter of telling DCS where in the box to display the MPD. This is the part where a little "Kentucky Windage" is involved and it requires guessing the numbers, starting DCS and adjusting and closing etc.

Order number #1207 arrived today in Nashville and got it installed in the pit and working. I'll do a more in depth review of the Total Controls MPDs in a few days after I use them some for those on the fence about ordering some.

I ordered these monitors today on Amazon. Can't wait for the frames to arrive. VSDISPLAY 10.4" 10.4 Inch 800x600 LCD Monitor VS104ZJ01 with HD-MI DVI VGA, Built-in Speakers, Black https://a.co/d/ihcvb2f

Patiently waiting for my order to be delivered but was wondering if anyone here who ordered these mfds and finds a good monitor to use with these frames would share with the rest of us and also perhaps the Lua file for those of us who aren't as tech savvy

Will the 8 in screens fit?

JackFlash, any word on shipment dates?

Ordered mine too, Jack Flash any approx idea when these will be ready for shipping?

thanks for the reply..... I tried x 1080 and y 1080 and it left justifies the Right MFCD so much that it cuts off a sliver of the MFCD. I could have sworn that is what I had in my old setting too. I finall played around with putting different settings for the x value and got it acceptable at around x 1200ish and y 1080.....weird... such a pain in the ass to load game....exit....make a few adjustments.......save......reload and try again....... for the future is there any better way to do this to make mini adjustments? thanks again.

Hey Mastiff or anyone that can anwser this question...... Was having problems with my CPU so I wiped it and did a clean install. When I went to go reinstall DCS A10c I copied the Lua. file that you gave me but Im having alot of trouble getting my Right MFCD to align correctly. To refresh your memory I'm running a 27 inch main monitor at 1920x1080 and 2 7" monitors at 800x480 for the MCFD's. The left MCFD is displaying perfectly but the right is too far left justified. I know its prob only some tweaking of the code but I've tried everything and I'm beyond frustrated. Here is the lua file that I'm using..... _ = function(p) return p; end; name = _('MFCD'); Description = 'Left MFCD on the left monitor,Right MFCD on the right and camera on the center' Viewports = { Center = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 1920; height = 1080; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 1.6; } } LEFT_MFCD = { x = 100; y = 1080; width = 580; height = 480; } RIGHT_MFCD = { x = ?; y = ?; width = 580; height = 480; } UIMainView = Viewports.Center I'm not sure what the x and y values should be for the Right MFCD. Also I went into the CCC ATI control panel and adjusted monitors 2 and 3 under monitor 1 like you advised earlier and they are snapped to the left and right corners. Your set up was working perfectly before for over a week before I had to wipe my box:doh: Please help.

BRAVO!:megalol: Worked Like a Charm.....Now I need to go get my Thrustmaster MFDs Many thanks again....

thanks for the quick reply Im running 2 ATI Sapphire 6870's This time I didn't configure the monitor set up in the AtI CCC set up....should I have? I will try what you have posted above and let you know what results I have... thanks

Please help..... I read MadTommy's first post and was able to get the MFD's to work in 2 monitor mode, but I recently purchased 2 new 7" samsung u70's for the MFD. I have read thru this post and tried several of the suggestions and I'm not having any luck getting DCS to display the setup the way I want it in game. My current set up is: 27" Samsung 1920x1080 7" Samsung U70 800x480 x2 I figured the total overall resolution to be 3520x1080...is this correct? I have configured windows to recognize both MFD's to the top most left and right of my main monitor. The lua. file has reflected this with the x,y values, but it's still not working. Could someone please help me and post the correct lua. set up so I may copy it and paste it in note++ and try it in game. I'm really frustrated as I got this to work flawlessly with the previous examples, changing a few values here and there to work on 2 monitors, but no such luck with 3.:helpsmilie: I was able to get one MFD to display on one of my smaller monitors but nothing on the other. Sorry that I can't post an example of the lua. files that I've tried as I deleted all the created ones from the in game directory out of frustration. also changed the overall resolution in game and made sure that it was not in full screen mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
