Hey all

 

I want to go back to flying the Ka-50, and attempt to learn to fly again the A-10C (learning the weapons systems so I can remember what I'm doing with only a minimal refresher course (like I can with the Ka-50 and Huey)) , however one thing is putting me off doing it - exporting the ABRIS/Shkval, in the case of the Ka-50 and the MFCDs/UFC/CDU etc. on the A-10. It would also be nice to export the kneeboard.

 

I have an Android tablet (a Tesco Hudl2) running Android 5 lollipop. I also have a 2nd monitor that I can use.

 

For DCS v1 I had a .lua all setup so that I could use 2 monitors in the below configuration, however upon getting into v1.5 I found that no longer works. I tried editing the .lua files for screen config supplied with DCS 1.5 but that also did not work.

 

This is the screen configuration I have -

I could put the Android tablet on there as well but I cannot find an app that reliably works - iDisplay was the best, and did work, until I upgraded from Android Kitkat to Android Lollipop - the developer seems to have no intention of updating the app and there is no way I can go back to Android Kitkat on my tablet. Other apps just have too much lag or do not work properly even on the desktop.

 

 

I was also using Hawgtouch to give me mouse clickable buttons/switches and surrounds for each display on the secondary monitor, and presumably once I can get the displays exported from the game to my secondary monitor I can go back to using Hawgtouch?

 

So, please can anyone help me achieve having the displays on my secondary monitor and/or my Android tablet?

 

Thanks in advance.

Nevermind, I have resolved this so that it works reasonably now.

 

It behaves a bit odd when loading but when in the menus and in-game the main view is now on my main monitor whilst I have the MFCD's and ABRIS/Shkval on my secondary monitor.

 

Just need to turn the displays off in the cockpit and tweak the config file so that I can have 1 config file with all exports like I had before (currently running 2, 1 for the A-10 and 1 for the Blackshark, and changing when I want to fly either), and I still haven't seen if I can move the kneeboard over to my 2nd monitor...
