lol I got an award in iRacing (car racing) years ago as I managed to be at the first place in division 7 in an izod indycar championship :) I sent this stuff by mail to Simona di silvestro (indycar driver) and she sent it back to me signed :)

I have mine at -1.05 for left screen and 1.05 for right, to compensate for bezel, but you should try yourself to check what's better for your setup...

With my current LUA file it looks like : My LUA : (I took the three screen display setup and change just the viewport) Viewports = { Left = { x = 0; y = 0; width = screen.width / 3; height = screen.height; viewDx = -1.05; viewDy = 0; aspect = screen.aspect / 3; }, Center = { x = screen.width / 3; y = 0; width = screen.width / 3; height = screen.height; viewDx = 0.0; viewDy = 0; aspect = screen.aspect / 3; }, Right = { x = screen.width * 2 / 3; y = 0; width = screen.width / 3; height = screen.height; viewDx = 1.05; viewDy = 0; aspect = screen.aspect / 3; } } This looks not bad though still a bit tilted, and the more you look down the more the side views are tilted ;) But it is not that bad, and I can live with it ^^

What is the angle between your monitors? They look a bit flat on your photo. The thing is, when you do this, consider one single screen, DCS considers it as one big flat monitor, so you increase your FOV forward, but not on the side, and moreover the issue is that the menus are stretched across the screen, with a bit on left screen, a bit on right screen.

Hi, I have asked DCS team, and they told me this is a home made music. But what kind of music is it? Jazz? What kind of Jazz, if this is so, and what kind of artist I should listen to, to hear the same kind? Meanwhile, as this is a korean war plane, I'm listening to 60th kind of rock, on rockradio.com, because they do not have a 50th rock channel :) Thanks

So, I managed a not too bad setup with working with the LUA, putting -1.05 in viewdx of the left screen, and 1.05 for the right screen, to compensate for bezels, and then increasing zoom to have a closer and more realistic view, and be able to see the panels better. I'll do this with trackIR to be able to look down... btw how do we know what is our current zoom level, and how do we save it as default? Thanks

Yes I am in surround mode and I tried this, the 1 screen setup, but then this is like if I have one big flat screen, without any angle, so this is not good as well... I guess I have to work with the screen lua, not sure how I should use it though, will have to do some testings...

Or does it just handle the thing like one big screen with a big resolution? I wonder, because look at what looks like my left screen when I have the middle one with a good zoom ratio... The earth is not straight as it should be... or maybe I miss a configuration somewhere? To have the left screen showing a straight earth, I have to really zoom a lot forward :) Thanks

Hi, First, I wonder, why did they do that for this aircraft, to lock the nosewheel till we press a button? Is it to have a more sturdy nosewheel? Also, in the real aircraft, where is this button? Thanks

Too bad we can't put them in "Training" folder, I guess we miss the lua and ogv files to make it work that way :)

Thanks for the info. Though I'll not get the alpha it seems, so I'll stay with the steam version for now, as I have read the alpha is only compatible with nevada, that I don't have. So will wait a bit, and stay with my steam version for now... and later on I'll try to decide if I keep with steam or move to standalone...

Does this mod works for DCS 1.5, and if not, will there be an update for it? Thanks

Hi, I just wonder, when DCS 2.0 will be final, if we'll have to reinstall the sim, or if the updater will take care of that itself. I wonder, because the 2.0 installer installs it in an alpha folder. Thanks

In immediate action (unsure what it is called in English), there is a "cold start" mission. Is this the same as the one you put there? Or the one you put there is a more elaborate one? Also, I have no taxing mission for now. Any idea when those will be in the official update? And now, do you think we can hope a campaign for the F86F in the future? I guess we can't hope a korean map, but then a campaign in the current map is better than nothing ;) (though I would love a korean map the quality of nevada ^^) Edit: Something that we will also need is a full interactive cold start, taxiing, taking off, doing a circuit, then landing training mission. I mean, not separate missions, but a whole one that covers all, as when you're flying, we are not dropped in altitude, we have to do everything, from taking off to landing...

Till now I was a steam user, I was considering moving to standalone, but guess this is not the good moment then, no sales right now on the store and as a steam user I guess I have no bonus credit :)

I don't understand the 50% discount they're talking in this newsletter. But nevada map is still at 50$. Does it mean the normal price is 100$? Or maybe I didn't understand something?

There is something I don't understand. This dynamic campaign is one year old... but the mig-21bis by leatherneck simulation is still in a beta stage. The plane already existed one year ago, end of 2014? Or there was a mig 21bis at this time, replaced by the new one now? Thanks

Sorry to undig a one year old topic, but I'm considering buying this wheel stand to be able to either race or fly, and I have a few questions. 1. Can you put the MFG crosswind in? The wheel stand dimension says 46 cm, which seems a bit narrow for the MFG. 2. How do you handle the change between racing pedals, and rudders? 3. Do you think I could mount saitek X55 hotas on those shifter mounts? Thanks
