AV8B MFD Export Issue

[MrSloanes]

Hey guys,

 

i have the MFCD's being exported to 2 small 8 inch monitors and for some reason the MFD display doesnt have a background, it just shows a camera view through the display?

 

Is there any way to add a black background or anything to fix this? Ive tried adding in some LUA but im not clued up on it and it hasnt worked at all lol.

You should post your lua so folks can take a look. And your monitor layout

I believe it to be an issue with the AV8B itself as Zeus replied stating they will add a dark background.

 

Just for reference -

_  = function(p) return p; end;
name = _('HSBMFD1');
Description = '3 Screens and L-R MultiMFD'
Viewports =
{
  Center =
    {
         x = 0;
         y = 0;
         width = 2560;
         height = 1080;
         viewDx = 0;
         viewDy = 0;
         aspect = 2.3;
	  
	  GUI=
	  {
	  x = 0;
	  y = 0;
	  width = 2560;
	  height = 1080;
} 
    },
    
	LEFT_MFCD =
	{
         x = 30;
         y = 1100;
         width = 700;
         height = 700;
	},
				
	RIGHT_MFCD =
	{
         x = 1560;
         y = 1100;
         width = 700;
         height = 700;  
	},
    
}

UIMainView = Viewports.Center
LEFT_MFCD  = Viewports.LEFT_MFCD
RIGHT_MFCD = Viewports.RIGHT_MFCD

To make the Black screen extend down below the monitor you are flying on you have to add in the game settings resolution the total width and height of all monitors. What configuration do you have your monitors in?

[hansangb]

Your left and right MFCDs start within the boundaries of you main center. Meaning you placed the MFCDs within the game view itself. Remember, x and y are starting coordinates from top left hand corner of your monitor. You have to put the MFCDs to the right or below your center view. As Brewnix said, the coordinates for mfcd is a function of how your MFDs are placed within Windows Display Setting, Display

 

It's spelled out in the post that I referenced.
