bigbear Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I recently upgraded to World 1.5 and am now unable to export instruments to my secondary touchscreen monitor. I have two monitors both at 1920x1080. I think it has something to do with some changes in ViewportHandling.lua, but I am not sure. Has anyone been able to export instruments with ver 1.5? If so, would you mind sending or posting your monitor file and your version of ViewportHandling.lua? I just can't imagine playing this sim without Helios or some other package that can show my instruments on another screen. Your help would be greatly appreciated. I just feel dead in the water without this. ===================================== Intel I7-6700 32GB RAM, Krait Z170A, NVIDIA RTX 2080ti 11GB, TrackIR5, TM HOTAS Warthog, MFG pedals, Samsung CRG9 49" monitor, HP Reverb VR, 500GB SSD.
Habu_69 Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 I decided today to get back into DCS and check out all the buzz regarding DCSW 1.5 (and eventually 2.0). Went through all the downloading, installing, and configuring; and after a good deal of time reading, researching and experimenting, reached the conclusion that it is not yet possible to export MFD's and other gages to auxiliary monitors using the MonitorSetup custom file.lua and instrument int.lua file hacks, as we did so successfully in 1.2. I have no interest at present in getting into Helios. Tell me if I am wrong. If I am, pray point me on the correct path.
Scooternutz Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 All displays exported for the A-10C, Ka-50, and M-2000C. I included my monitor file as well. I am using Capt Zeens latest export file. Works in 1.5 and 2.0.ExportedDisplays.zipScooternutztest.zip [sIGPIC]https://drive.google.com/file/d/16rUBmmJR7A3YGZVGPGskxG1XtvulGojJ/view?usp=sharing[/sIGPIC]
Scooternutz Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 No interest in using Helios? Bummer, huge loss. [sIGPIC]https://drive.google.com/file/d/16rUBmmJR7A3YGZVGPGskxG1XtvulGojJ/view?usp=sharing[/sIGPIC]

bigbear Posted January 30, 2016 Author Posted January 30, 2016 I finally got this working. Capt Zeens file was the trick. ===================================== Intel I7-6700 32GB RAM, Krait Z170A, NVIDIA RTX 2080ti 11GB, TrackIR5, TM HOTAS Warthog, MFG pedals, Samsung CRG9 49" monitor, HP Reverb VR, 500GB SSD.
Habu_69 Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 Yes, thanks to the help I found on this forum and a good deal of perseverance, I too got my 3 monitors working. Did not require Helios, as I use TM MFD's. Now to finally do some flying.
