Ride

Thanks. I had read a fair few of the multi monitor threads and came across a couple of mentions that negative values don't work, they were old threads so I was hoping something had changed but I guess not. I'm returning after a couple of years where I was using softth to do what I wanted before. Thanks for the dedicated multi monitor section though, it's well hidden, il have a read through that also.

Hi, Is it possible to setup triple monitors (without surround) while have my centre monitor as primary in Windows? I tried to set it up last night but the sim boots up with the UI on my right side monitor then once a mission is loaded my centre monitor shows what i would like to see on my left side monitor and my right side monitor shows about a third of what I would like on my centre monitor and the rest as black screen. Is there a line in a config file i can use to shift everything to the left? Thanks.

Fixed!! :thumbup: That did it, thanks heaps for your help

OK, have ran repair no luck. Yes I have 2 folders, Caucasus and CaucasusBase

where is the repair exe? I have run repair from the update utility but not from the original DCS repair file itself.

yeah in skate zillas update utility I clicked the Nevada terrain thinking that maybe I had no terrain installed at all (due the message about no theatres being installed) and thought that the Nevada icon was an icon for terrain in general. That was the last thing I had tried after everything else.

autoupdate log attached. Yep I have checked that I am logged in, I have logged in and out a few times but it hasn't helped. if it is easier Im happy to just do a clean install unless you want to look into it further for your own info then im also happy to keep trying things. autoupdate_log.txt

nope no mods. screen shot attached

nope I have only run the updater for the latest release version. Logs attached. Thanks Logs.zip

had already tried that, just did it again incase but still no joy. Not sure if this is normal but I get a message pop up on the menu screen that says "Seems that you do not have any theatres installed. please, check available on our store" I have also tried using the DCS Updater utility by Skate Zilla to update modules and repair but that hasn't helped either.

Hi, I have just updated (painfully) and now all of my menu options are greyed out except for logbook, Encyclopedia and Exit. The version I have updated to is 1.5.3.52018, is this the latest release version? really confusing!!! :mad: Any help much appreciated. Thanks

Nevermind, figured it out, I was 1 pixel out on my vertical calculations

Hey guys, I have just setup my 3 monitors with softTH but I am little stuck on the final step. My center monitor is 28" and my left and right monitors are 21.5". At the moment everything is aligned along the top edge of the center monitor but I need it to be aligned along the bottom edge. The virtual pixel distance I need to move my outside monitors down by is 220. Which values do I need to change to make this work? My softTH config is below. Thanks.

Thanks, how did you come up with 1474x829?

Hi, I am trying to setup 3 monitors using SoftTH, I have edited the .lua etc and have it working but the problem is this: My 3 monitors all have a resolution of 1920x1080, my center monitor is 28" but the 2 either side are only 21.5" (all in landscape at the moment but once I get monitor stands I will put the left and right in portrait). The left and right monitors show a smaller picture and so they don't line up with the center monitor. Is there a way to adjust the size of the left and right monitors to match the center monitor so that everything lines up? Thanks!

Yes they do work. I used to use my G27 pedals as rudder until i got my combat pedals. If you push with 1 foot you just need to remember to let off with the other or the 2 axis will be fighting against each other. Check the 3rd post down in this thread for setup. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=80457

Yes I have read that 7" 6:9 monitors wont fit like you have shown. The ones I have ordered are 4:3. I will post pics of how they fit once everything turns up.

For anyone else asking the same question i found this thread, same monitor as the one i was looking at, just ordered a couple so hopefully all good http://www.viperpits.org/smf/index.php?topic=8906.0

Thanks Kuky, a did come across those drawings in another thread but there was mention that they were for the real life MFDs which are bigger than the TM ones??

I guess what i really need to know is what are the internal dimensions (screen area) of the TM MFD's? The active area of the monitor in the above link is 141.6 x 106.2 Is someone able to bust out the ruler??

Hey guys, I have read a heap of threads on this topic but cant find a definitive answer. Will 7" 4:3, 800x600px monitors fit behind TM Cougar MFD's? Can anyone confirm they will work? Seems like the only reason anyone has gone for 8" is because they couldn't find any 7" in 4:3 ratio. The ones im looking at are in the link below: http://www.ebay.com/itm/VGA-AV-signal-Driver-Borad-7inch-800-600-resolution-4-3-A070SN02-tft-lcd-display-/170877360368?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27c91598f0#ht_4903wt_1031 Thanks!!

It is the zoom part of the custom view im trying to set up that isnt working. The default view is saving correctly (for example if I make the default looking out to the left it works fine) if i zoom the view out aswell and save this as the default it works fine untill I un-pause trackir. By un-pausing trackir the view remains looking out to the left but the zoom level is back to its original state. I am using trackir as my zoom axis so I guess it is overiding it. might just go back to the defaults, thanks for the help!!

Hey all, I am trying to set my default view so that it is not so close to the HUD, I have tried playing with the snap views as explained here: http://en.wiki.eagle.ru/wiki/Snap_views with TrackIR paused the default view I have created is fine but as soon as i un-pause trackir my view goes back to the default default view with the HUD in your face. I have read through a bunch of posts but cant find an answer to this problem. Any suggestions?? Thanks!!

found the autoupdate through the Start menu which runs ok now but it seems to be downloading the update again which I had already downloaded... any way to avoid downloading again?

Hi, I ran DCS world and it said there was an update (which I had allready run the other night but it didnt seem to update) so I clicked the option to play without updating. Now I have exited DCS and tried opening it again but it hasnt given me the option to update. I have had a look in Eagle Dynamics/DCS World for the autoupdate.exe but all I have are autoupdate.cfg and autoupdate.db. Is there any way to get the autoupdate running again and also is there a way to verify the game files so that I might have a chance of not having to download the entire update again? Thanks!!
