4 monitors "T" config. and SoftTH ? 1.5 compatible?

[ThePutzer]

Before I wanker up new install. Thought I would just ask.. Have you set up your "T", configuration in 1.5 yet, and if so, did you just, copy/paste all same settings?(softth config file,etc.) or do a fresh install of SoftTH ??

I am really missing this set up. Using nvidea surround, 5760x1080. Looks really nice. But after having the "T" for last 1 1/2yrs. Can't live w/out it !

ThePutzer Thanks for any assistance!

I don't believe SoftTH will work with 1.5. The current SoftTH is written for DirectX9. The new DCS uses DirectX11 so will no longer be compatible.

 

On the plus side, according to the SoftTH Facebook page the current developer has SoftTH V3 working with with DirectX11 so hopefully before too long this will be an option again.

 

In the mean time, you can use viewports to simulate a T setup. This is what I am currently doing. My monitors in Windows have to be in a horizontal row but at least it works in DCS. See my config file below for how I have it setup.

 

_  = function(p) return p; end;
name = _('CustomViewports');
Description = 'One monitor configuration'
Viewports = 
{
Left = 
{
x = 0;
y = 0;
width = 1920;
height = 1080;
viewDx = -1;
viewDy = 0;
aspect = 1920 / 1080;
},

Center = 
{
x = 1920;
y = 0;
width = 1920;
height = 1080;
viewDx = 0;
viewDy = 0;
aspect = 1920 / 1080;
},

Right = 
{
x = 1920+1920;
y = 0;
width = 1920;
height = 1080;
viewDx = 1;
viewDy = 0;
aspect = 1920 / 1080
},
Bottom =
{
x = 1920+1920+1920;
y = 0;
width = 1740;
height = 1080;
viewDx = 0;
viewDy = -1;
aspect = 1920/1080
}

}


--UIMainView = Viewports.Center

GUI=
{
x = 1920;
y = 0;
width = 1920;
height = 1080;
}

UIMainView = GUI
