Ok, after starting from scratch and using the info learned, I have a working LUA file. Code below: = function(p) return p; end; name = _('JF-17 Custom'); Description = 'Left MFCD on the left monitor,Right MFCD on the right and camera on the center' Viewports = { Center = { x = 1920; y = 0; width = 3440; height = 1440; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 2.388888; } } JF17_LEFT_MFCD = { x = 1920-800; y = 0; width = 800; height = 1000; } JF17_RIGHT_MFCD = { x = 5360; y = 0; width = 800; height = 1000; } JF17_CENTER_MFCD = { x = 7280-800; y = 0; width = 800; height = 1000; } UIMainView = Viewports.Center GU_MAIN_VIEWPORT = Viewports.Center Thanks for your help

Thanks for your help, but my code appears to be the same. Been using this code for years now on a10c, f18, f16 and it did work on jf17 until a couple weeks ago?

Well done Deka. Good to see new developers being attracted to the DCS platform. I fly the JF-17, and for a new developer to release a very fine aircraft to start with has raised the bar for others to follow suit.

So, I have tried a couple different approaches in a custom monitor .lua file, and I am posting the code for someone to hopefully figure out what I am doing wrong or if the jf-17 module is broken: Filename=jf17 Custom Monitor Config: left monitor is 1920x1080, center monitor is 3440x1440, right monitor is 1920x1080. Total resolution in Options.lua is 7280x1440 Code is: = function(p) return p; end; name = _('jf17 Custom.bkup'); Description = 'Configuration with 1 3440x1440 center, and 2 1920x1080 one on each side of main monitor.' Viewports = { Center = { x = 1920; y = 0; width = 3440; height = 1440; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 2.38888; }, --LEFT_MFCD= JF17_LEFT_MFCD= (I have tried both ways left mfd description) { x = 1920-800; y = 0; width = 800; height = 800; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 1; }, --RIGHT_MFCD = JF17_RIGHT_MFCD = (I have tried both ways right mfd description) { x = 5360; y = 0; width = 800; height = 800; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 1; } } UIMainView = Viewports.Center GU_MAIN_VIEWPORT = Viewports.Center Thank you for anyone that can help

Thank you for the very quick response. I will try that, and post the results. Again, thank you Jeffisbest

I don't know. I am not currently flying the Viggen.

When I first got the JF-17, I was able to export Left and Right MFD's to seperate monitors using a tried and true Edit on the stock ED monitor setup. After the last couple updates, I can no longer get the MFD's to export.

Helios Project Nice work all developers on this project. I dabbled a little several years back, I look forward to dabbling again with this Beta release. Thanks again

Display export I am no expert, but I believe it is all or nothing. I think you would need two seperate lua files, and you would have to switch between them depending on which seat you were going to be flying in. IMO, that would be a hassle. If you had three monitors, you could split them up. RIO Displays on one and the Pilot on the other. For me, I like all five on my second monitor. Good Luck Mate.:joystick:

I used the entire code in a custom setup, only changing the pixel coordinates. Also the filename and the name in the .lua should match as per my experience. I have a 3440 x 1440 on the left and a 1920 x 1080 on the right. Make sure in windows or nvidia settings, the top of the monitors are the same. I am trying an edit on the rwr init.lua per one of the guys that posted before in this thread. Example of my monitor setup code: name = _('F-14B Combined'); Description = 'EXPORTED DISPLAYS' Viewports = { Center = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 3440; height = 1440; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 3.722222; } } F14_VDI= { x = 3440; y = 0; width = 500; height = 500; } F14_HSD = { x = 4860; y = 0; width = 500; height = 500; } F14_DDD = { x = 3440; y = 580; width = 500; height = 500; } F14_RWR= { x = 4150; y = 580; width = 500; height = 500; } F14_TID = { x = 4860; y = 580; width = 500; height = 500; } UIMainView = Viewports.Center GU_MAIN_VIEWPORT = Viewports.Center Hope this helps

Thank for the example. I made a custom export with no problem using your code, just changed pixel coordinates.:smilewink:

Can you give an example of the code needed for the export please. I have done the A10 and F18 already, but an example would help me alot.

Thank you for your reply. That is great news.

Hello to you all, I was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to export the DDI's and/or the Color display to a secondary monitor. I have done it for the A10 and BS2. Thanks in advance
