Death-17

Nevermind, I figured it out.

Is it possible to play multiplayer with multiple moniters? With my screen stretched I can no longer click on the join button. Any suggestions?

Oh, and thanks for the reply, it's been kind of quiet in the forums lately.

You're saying I can stick a low end vid sard in pci slot and run a monitor off it? I'm in the military and returning home in about 2 months. I plan on building my BS pit then. I would like to have ABRIS, shkval, and BSVP all on seperate monitors. I have ABRIS and shkval on the second monitor now. Or at least I did before I installed the new patch, lost my lua settings. I know I can lan the BSVP moniter but that would still leave one short.

I only have 1 video card. Is it possible to use a second computer to get the third monitor? If so, how?

Can I use my lua settings for multiple monitors from 1.0.1 with 1.0.2? I tried copying them to new patch but it gave me multiple errors. I am removing game and reinstalling it with the new patch.....again. My moniter setup is on my signature, pleade help.

LED outputs How are these guys getting the game to output LEDs?

Oh yes, I currently have removed all Blackshark from my computer until I get some advice of this.

I too am having trouble with 1.02 patch, errors on the options screen, etc. DO I install 1.02 over 1.01 or not? 1.01 works great, is 1.02 worth this hassle? And will my lua changes I saved from 1.01 work on 1.02 or do I have to start from scratch?

Thank you, thank you, thank you

Ok, I can't find anything helpful. What is BSVP?

Sorry Just cecking my sig block, sorry for the noob stuff

Scared Is the patch worth it? I don't really play online. If I insatall this patch I loose all my custom missions and my LUA settings for my monitor. I can live without the new trimmer. Again, is it worth it?

CRC guages I'm new to the simpit stuff. I have a second monitor for shkval and ABRISS. How did you get the guages on the left panel? Are they from the DCS game? Are they operational? Could you explain? I'm working on my pit(not as detailed as yours)and this info would be awsome. Extroadanary work by the way.

Multiple monitor help, please I recently downloaded the new BS patch 1.02. Didn't like it and uninstalled it and reinstalled 1.01. I put my saved "options" and monitor setup lua's in but they did not set up like it was before(no display on second monitor). I am attaching the current lua's I am running right now. I have a 42" main screen at 1920x1080and a second screen, on left, at 1280x960 I use for shkval and abris. options lua: ["graphics"] = { ["multiMonitorSetup"] = "shkval+camera+abris", ["color"] = "32", ["heatBlr"] = 0, ["scenes"] = "medium", ["water"] = 1, ["fullScreen"] = false, ["visibRange"] = "Medium", ["aspect"] = 1.333333, ["haze"] = 1, ["shadows"] = 1, ["display_mode"] = { ["avi"] = { ["bpp"] = 32, ["width"] = 480, ["full_screen"] = false, ["height"] = 640, ["aspect"] = 1.333333333, ["resolution"] = "640x480", }, -- end of ["avi"] }, -- end of ["display_mode"] ["effects"] = 3, ["width"] = 3200, ["civTraffic"] = 1, ["terrPrld"] = "20", ["height"] = 1080, ["resolution"] = "1920x1080", ["textures"] = 2, ["lights"] = 2, }, -- end of ["graphics"] ["playerName"] = "DEATH 17", ["views"] = { ["cockpit"] = { ["mirrors"] = false, ["reflections"] = false, ["russianHud"] = false, ["avionics"] = 1, }, -- end of ["cockpit"] }, -- end of ["views"] } -- end of options monitor setup: Description = 'Cockpit camera on the left monitor and ABRIS & Shkval on the left monitor' Viewports = { Center = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 1920; height = 1080; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 1.77; } } ABRIS = { x = 2560; -- starts at the left of the secondary screen, 1920 y = 0; width = 640; -- half the secondary screen pixel width height = 960; -- full height of the secondary screen } Shkval = { x = 1920; -- as the Shkval starts at the second half of the right monitor, this is 1920 (the main view width) plus half of 1024(halfway across the right monitor width) y = 0; width = 640; -- half of 1024, the secondary monitor width height = 480; -- to keep the aspect correct, half the height of the secondary screen }

Any yahoo can fly fixed, it takes skill to fly rotor. If you can't hover you suck and Harriers don't count!

Sorry for not getting back. 15 years working on them and all that's ever been loaded is 30mm, hellfires, and rockets.(aux tanks, of course) The factory says you can load air to air but there's really no call for it.

That worked. I had to swap around the shkval and abris and get rid of the dead space between them, but it looks good. Thanks for the help.

Okay, made changes and still not good.

Need more help, maybe I did something wrong. There's no abris or shkval on my second screen, just the cockpit window and everything is out of aspect. I'm sending my options and monitorsetup just like they are now.(thanks for the water tip) options lua: ["graphics"] = { ["multiMonitorSetup"] = "shkval+camera+abris", ["color"] = "32", ["heatBlr"] = 0, ["scenes"] = "medium", ["water"] = 1, ["fullScreen"] = false, ["visibRange"] = "Medium", ["aspect"] = 1.33, ["textures"] = 2, ["shadows"] = 2, ["display_mode"] = { ["avi"] = { ["bpp"] = 32, ["resolution"] = "3200x1080", ["full_screen"] = false, ["aspect"] = 1.333333333, ["height"] = 480, ["width"] = 3200, }, -- end of ["avi"] }, -- end of ["display_mode"] ["effects"] = 3, ["lights"] = 2, ["haze"] = 1, ["terrPrld"] = "20", ["height"] = 1080, ["resolution"] = "3200x1080", ["civTraffic"] = 1, ["width"] = 3200, }, -- end of ["graphics"] ["playerName"] = "DEATH 17", ["views"] = { ["cockpit"] = { ["mirrors"] = false, ["reflections"] = false, ["avionics"] = 4, ["russianHud"] = false, }, -- end of ["cockpit"] }, -- end of ["views"] } -- end of options monitorsetup lua: Description = 'Cockpit camera on the left monitor and ABRIS & Shkval on the left monitor' Viewports = { Center = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 3200; height = 1080; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 1.77; } } ABRIS = { x = 1920; -- starts at the left of the secondary screen, 1920 y = 0; width = 640; -- half the secondary screen pixel width height = 960; -- full height of the secondary screen } Shkval = { x = 2432; -- as the Shkval starts at the second half of the right monitor, this is 1920 (the main view width) plus half of 1024(halfway across the right monitor width) y = 0; width = 640; -- half of 1024, the secondary monitor width height = 480; -- to keep the aspect correct, half the height of the secondary screen } __________________

I would like to have ABRIS and Skval on my second screen, not on my main.

Oh, sorry, second monitor is on right.

Be advised this pic from above is not with my current lua settings, it was just to give you an idea.

Monitor help, please I would like to change my second monitor to show ABRIS and Shkval instead of just shkval. I have attached my current options and monitor config lua commands. My primary monitor is 42inch at 1920x1080 and my second monitor is on the right, a 19inch at 1024x768. I would like to change the second monitor's res to 1280x960 if it doesn't cause too much hassle. Thanks [ATTACH][/ATTACH]

I agree, I'm a little bored, too. I love flying helos, but would prefer a little variety. Maybe some SAR, or a hot LZ marked with smoke and tracers from ground fire coming at you while door gunners open up and hitting the ground so hard you slide on your skids!!! Then over torq'in it to haul ass out while bullets crash through the canopy!! (I think I'm having flashbacks)
