Iku_CC Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Could there be separate keys for every uMFCD size? I don't need smaller one at all so this would help to switch between large and middle size..

Sgt_Baker Posted January 26, 2015 Author Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) Could there be separate keys for every uMFCD size? I don't need smaller one at all so this would help to switch between large and middle size.. Of course. This requires that I redesign the settings UI to make space for all the new stuff, but under the covers this type of binding is already supported. Edit for clarity: The UI is already scheduled for a redesign, so will support this when that's complete. Edited January 26, 2015 by Sgt_Baker UltraMFCD 3.0 in the works. https://ultramfcd.com

We experimented with such functionality as early as June last year, and it worked rather nicely. Another case of: Watch this space. B UltraMFCD 3.0 in the works. https://ultramfcd.com
Sgt_Baker Posted January 27, 2015 Author Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) Hey folks, I'm going to add a section to the website concerning multi-monitor setups, windowed mode etc. Given that I'm a relatively dull two-screen chap, I wondered if those of you with more esoteric setups could send me a screenie of the Windows display settings? Would be much appreciated. Many thanks, B Edited January 27, 2015 by Sgt_Baker UltraMFCD 3.0 in the works. https://ultramfcd.com

Sgt_Baker Posted January 29, 2015 Author Posted January 29, 2015 Good News! (No, it is not the Dacia Sandero) uMFCD now works properly with the reference Helios Export.lua provided earlier in this thread (sorry, I forget who). Just for purposes of verification, I've re-attached here to make sure we're all on the same proverbial page. The patched release will be out very shortly.

sobe Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 UltraMFCD appears to work fine with Helios I have been testing the latest version of Ultra with Loz's Helios profile and so far so good. It should be noted that with Enable MFCD input checked and Disable cockpit MFCDs not checked, the MFCDs appear in the cockpit and in Ultra but not in the Helios profile. The same also applies if both are unchecked. However, you can just move the MFCDs into the Helios profile, and expand them when you want to. If both are checked, nothing appears. It was late when I was doing this so I could have made some errors. I have not yet tested the effect on the FPS.

It was late when I was doing this so I could have made some errors. I have not yet tested the effect on the FPS. This behaviour is due to the fact that uMFCD needs to completely override anything you previously had set for the exports in order to render them at the maximum possible quality. Once you've moved them back to where you need them, the system will remember those positions. It's also worth noting that Helios users aren't /really/ the target audience, but supported nonetheless. :) Edit: It's also worth noting that uMFCD isn't "a slightly revised" Easy Monitor Configurator. It takes complete control over how/when/where the MFCDs render at the DirectX level, which is what enables the ability to move them in real time, along with a whole load of interesting things in the future, such as rendering of different machines etc. Edited January 30, 2015 by Sgt_Baker UltraMFCD 3.0 in the works. https://ultramfcd.com
sobe Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Sgt Baker I acknowledge that uMFCD was not really designed for the Helios crowd and I appreciate your extra effort in having it run with Helios. I intend to buy a license from you for two reasons. First, I like the program and may use it on the A10 with Helios from time to time. Second, and more important, I want to support your continued development on other DCS aircraft that do not have Helios profiles that are ready made. Helios profiles require a lot of knowledge and work, neither of them do I posses. Good Luck.
