[NOT YET SUPPORTED][MERGED] DDI/AMPCD DISPLAYS EXPORT

[ScopeDope]

Confirmed with others I play with; the MFD screens will not turn on in cockpit, nor display on external monitors when the game options are set to more than 1 monitor setup. As soon as "1 Monitor" is selected they work fine.

[SkateZilla]

Please Attach your MonitorSetup LUA.

same issue here. monitor setup attached

 

Thanks, It's already Known internally that displays are blank when Exporting MFDs via Monitor Setup:

 

 

Remove:

LEFT_MFCD = 
{
   x = 360;
   y = 1151;
   width = 416;
   height = 416;
}

RIGHT_MFCD = 
{
   x = 1172;
   y = 1148;
   width = 423;
   height = 423;
}

 

Will restore them in cockpit.

[jonsky7]

Yeah, same here.

Won't that stop exporting them too ? Do you mean there is no way of exporting them for now ?

[EXPORT NOT SUPPORTED YET] F18 ddi issues

 

in my hornet my ddis do not work or turn on i have tried auto start nothing and air start nothing

[Wags]

Please play through Cold Start training mission. We cannot reproduce your issue.

[SkateZilla]

They are only blank when trying to Export them.

 

Exporting is not available at the moment.

[jonsky7]

Is it possible to only stop exporting MFDs for the F/A-18 and leave the other a/c free to export?

[SkateZilla]

There was a way to declare specific views based on Unit Name, I dont remember the string off hand.

[llOPPOTATOll]

i just did and the ddis never turned on

[MrDieing]

Are you, you know, flipping the button at the top?

[SkateZilla]

Do you have your Monitor Config Set to export RIGHT_MFCD/LEFT_MFCD?

[SkateZilla]

function  reconfigure_for_unit(unit_type)   --unit type is string with unit name
if unit_type == "A-10C" then
         
	Viewports  = ... define new Viewports table 
	-- also you can define cockpit displays viewports here 
	RIGHT_MFCD = ... define new RIGHT_MFCD  viewport 
	  
else 
    Viewports = ... define default for others 
	RIGHT_MFCD = nil  -- remove for others 
end
end

i think skatezilla

[SkateZilla]

i think skatezilla

 

Disable the Exports, or Re-Build Monitor Config for Units and Disable for the Hornet.

 

Exporting the DDI's is not possible yet.

[llOPPOTATOll]

ok thanks skatezilla

[NOT YET SUPPORTED] MFD's Exported Successfully?

 

Has anyone successfully exported the 3 hornet MFD's to a separate monitor yet? If so...

 

1. Is there a FPS hit?

2. Are the main monitor cockpit displays able to be left un-rendered (blank) when exported?

3. Can you run the game at 4K on your main monitor whilst running the 3 exported MFD's at

1080p on the second?

[SkateZilla]

Display Exporting is Not Enabled for the Hornet

 

I have however done this for the A-10C, Main Cockpit View on 4K, w/ 2 MFDs, CMSP, RWR, And other Displays Exported to a Smaller 1080P Display.

 

it's Just a Matter of Setting correct Coordinates.

Thanks, I was worried for a second. :)

[Hog_No32]

Skatezilla, are we missing a „yet“ in your response saying it is not supported by tha F/A-18C (if you happen to know)? I would be surprised if a „DCS-native“ module would come without the viewports adequately encoded for mult-monitor setups. Talking about final release, of course.

 

But when you say that you managed it for the A-10C....well that is indeed pre-set with the MFCD left/right options. So if it would work the same way for the Hornet as for the A-10C, I guess we’d be more than happy. If not, I do not understand your reference to what you did on the Hog.

 

Thanks for clarifying in these busy times :smilewink:

[MULTI-DISPLAYS NOT YET SUPPORTED] So what instrutemnts are Viewpoint capable?

 

Trying to set up my second screen and it appears that all 3 MFD's and perhaps the RWR can be sent to a second screen. Do any of the also need a "do file" line in the init file?

The knobs above the MPCDs are OFF in a cold start, you need to switch them to DAY (or night).
