Exporting MFCDs into separate Window

[Shrike_AU]

I know I can 'export' or copy the display from the MFCDs to another place within a larger DCS window, but I was wondering of anyone knows if the displays can be exported into another window.

 

By window I mean a separate windows window (I know, that's no clearer :)

 

The idea is to use something like https://github.com/scudzey/UVROverlay to show the exported MFCD zoomed in, when you look at the one in the aircraft.

 

UVROverlay allows you to add almost any desktop window into the VR space, it can be locked in space, or attached to a vive controller. It can also be faded into view and zoomed/have it's size increased when looking at it.

 

Bonus points if the surrounding buttons can be exported and work.

As in monitor 1, 2, or 3 as reported by Control panel right? Then the answer is yes.

 

But you still have to tell DCS that your monitor encompasses the entire resolution. If you want to do it outside of the defined resolution, I don't know if that's possible. There were MFCD export utilities around, but the app developer game up, I think.

 

And there are apps available via Android and Apple IOS apps.

 

See HERE for more info.

the exported MFCDs wouldnt work the way you want them in VR due to the way the VR is rendered.

SkateZilla, Have you tried UVROverlay? It's pretty amazing, rendering the window at a fixed point in space, regardless of the primary VR app.

 

Folks are using it to watch videos while flying in Elite Dangerous, by setting the overlay like a TV screen on their ship's dash.
