thoth Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Hi Captain Zen: I have entered all the files correctly but it does not work the right way. The MDF and the digital, they don't work, they stay off. Analogues, like, altimeter etc...., work. I tried to enter the parameters you have posted, in my monitor setup script, it does not work. Do you have a solution? Thank you for your precious work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bipolarbear Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Hi Capt I love your work but the export is working very weirdly for me. I have a 3440x1440 ultrawide running at 2560x1080, and a 1680x1050 monitor sat below that in a top bottom configuration, with Helios on the bottom screen As suggested in the readme I took a screenshot of Helios running and used Gimp to get the exact pixel values for size and placement, but when in game the DDIs are in totally the wrong place. They appear in the top right and off the right hand side of my top monitor, hovering translucently over the main game window. How can I fix this? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bipolarbear Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 A development: Bipolarbear realised he was an idiot and forgot to change thee overall resolution in game. I've done that now some are showig in the right place, however others are not, as seen here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bipolarbear Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Issue solved! The issue is that bipolarbear is an idiot and had set the wrong values wrong and had set only Left MFCD and not F_18 LEFT, the IEFI values I just had not saved into the right place, Thanks for your offer of help cap, and thanks for this awesome tool, happy flying :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beeroshima Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Can anybody tell me if my monitor config in my saved games is the culprit for my RWR not showing up as an export?

Shotgun Dexter Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 (edited) My main monito is 3840 x 2160, second is 1366 x 768. I only really have the MFds viewports close, I still need to move the other stuff around. I stopped because it looked like I was totally missing something. Im not as proficient with computers as I should be. I will try to get other ports closer today to see if that helps. _ = function(p) return p; end; name = _('2_monitors_FA18C'); Description = 'Right, Left, RWR, IFEI, UFC, and AMPCD in right monitor' --TOTAL DEL VIEWPORT Viewports = { Center = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 3840; height = 2160; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 16/9; } } --LEFT LEFT_MFCD = { x = 3850; y = 0; width = 330; height = 311; } --RIGHT RIGHT_MFCD = { x = 4876; y = 0; width = 330; height = 311; } -- RWR F18_RWR = { x = 3086; y = 600; width = 150; height = 150; } --AMPCD CENTER_MFCD = { x = 4350; y = 311; width = 315; height = 300; } --IFEI F18_IFEI = { x = 3850; y = 500; width = 430; height = 167; } --UFC F18_UFC = { x = 4350; y = 0; width = 380; height = 216; } UIMainView = Viewports.Center Is that the info you wanted?

Shotgun Dexter Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 (edited) Ive tried adjusting the placements of viewports, now i get an error loading profile on the control center start. I notice that in helios profile editor there is not dcs f18 listed, only the black shark. I went back and reinstalled f18b profile, it will run again, but only my viewports show. I may just try to use helios and see if i can just make left and right mfd with buttons....but I would love to get your profile running. Looks great.

Capt Zeen Posted September 24, 2018 Author Share Posted September 24, 2018 Hello Shotgun Dexter. You need to load the f18 profile in the helios profile editor, first. Then do a reset monitor to configure the profile to your system, then save it with another name. that one is the profile you need to load with the helios control center.

Shotgun Dexter Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 (edited) Ok saved as "Bryans Hornet", still just getting the viewports, well 4 of them, on second display. None of the images of cockpit are coming up. I believe I have the images in the file specified, I am going to check and make sure I dont have more than one location that has the images. I have the images in user/documents/helios. I would think that I should see all the images for the other stuff that is already in Helios in the same folder, I do not.
