DCS Won't Activate Bezel Corrected Resolution

[BLUEmako]

I'm using Nvidia surround to run a triple monitor setup at 5760x1080 windows desktop and 6000x1080 bezel corrected mode in games.

 

Prior to the 1.5.2 patch DCS would start and activate the 6000x1080 bezel corrected resolution.

 

Now the launcher stays in the windows default resolution of 5760x1080. If I try to set 6000x1080, the GUI runs off the screen as the monitor stays at 5760x1080 but the GUI is sized to 6000x1080.

 

If I hit alt-enter to force full screen mode, the game GUI resizes to the correct resolution to match the bezel correction but the mouse reports the position according to the desktop locations which are not bezel corrected. I have to run the mouse off the screen to activate the menu items.

 

When I am in the game flying, I cannot get the game to run at 6000x1080 unless Windows desktop is running at 6000x1080.

 

This did not happen prior to the 1.5.2. patch.

 

It is extremely frustrating to have to reset my windows desktop resolution to get the game to run in the bezel corrected mode.

 

My system is Windows 10, nvidia surround mode.

change the desktop resolution to the bezel corrected one.

 

Right now the GUI / Renderer have to run the same resolution as the desktop, otherwise the menus and game will go off the edge or be smaller than the screen.

 

I Run 3x screen upsampled to 1440p via VSR and desktop at 1080p, right now I have to bump my screens back up to 1440p each, otherwise the 7680x1440p Menus go off the screen.

 

I gave up on bezel correction long ago, its a waste of power. your forcing your GPU to render up to 600K pixels you wont even see.

 

Unless you got 5 inch bezels w/ speakers.

 

Its part of the transition to DX11.

Ok thanks for the reply.

 

I was hoping I could have the GUI on the centre only but sounds like that's not possible unless I run three separate cameras for the separate monitors.

 

A setup option to allow a reduced GUI size would be nice for the ultra widescreen option in the future...

I also hope this to be fixed soon. Flying without bezel correction is disturbing, especially in turn.

The GUI restriction string not working is a reported bug, normally you would be able to w/ no problems.
