WindWpn Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 hello all, I have not yet moved to 1.5 though with the all buzz and images, I am quite tempted! However, one key question is: will SoftTH work in 1.5 or has anyone been successful using softTH in 1.5? I have a triple head setup with varied size resolutions thus require softTH to make it all come together. I am also running Vista Ultimate though do have DX11, thus that would be another question if anyone is running 1.5 with Vista (even though I believe DCS World (1.5/2) specs note minimum of Win7?). All in all, I am nearing the end of a successful campaign in the Ka50, but once completed, i was thinking of moving up from 1.2+ to 1.5. However, want to see if anyone has experience with my two key requirements at this time... 1) SoftTH 2) Windows Vista Ultimate ~S~ wind The Rig: i5 7700k OC 4.6ghz, 16 GB RAM, GTX 1080ti, Windows 10 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
WindWpn Posted October 16, 2015 Author Posted October 16, 2015 Hah, answered my own softTH question with a quick follow up search, and sounds like the answer is No, at least until release of SoftTH3 if/when it comes out. Oh well, guess will have to stick with 1.2 for a while longer. ~S~ wind The Rig: i5 7700k OC 4.6ghz, 16 GB RAM, GTX 1080ti, Windows 10 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
WindWpn Posted October 21, 2015 Author Posted October 21, 2015 Update to this thread, found that actually SoftTH is not needed for DCS, at least for my triple head configuration. Someone noted that by simply setting the full screen space resolution and setting the left monitor as main, DCS shows nicely for all when in the pit...works! Thus, with that aspect no longer an issue, my second question is Vista. Min specs for v1.5 note Windows 7, but wondering if 1.5/2.0 will work with Vista running DX11? I am hesitant to upgrade as I do not want to pork my 1.2 install, but if anyone else has attempted 1.5 Vista with success, please tell. ~S~ wind The Rig: i5 7700k OC 4.6ghz, 16 GB RAM, GTX 1080ti, Windows 10 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Gannaf Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 May I add, I have a 3Monitor setup 19"|24"|19" working without the need for softth in DCS 1.5.3. Full Resolution is 4480x1080. Did not have to make leftmost the main one. Primary monitor is still center. That is on 1Screen/1Camera .lua config. Though I tried setting up softth 2.08(x64) hoping to solve a different issue, it was simply not recognized by the game at all (no "softth" splash on startup or anything). I did drop the d3d9.dll into ...DCSWorld\bin
