spoon95 Posted February 17, 2019 Posted February 17, 2019 This is an image I made in Photoshop.I'd like to have the map displayed on the second monitor.But I don't know how to edit the lua file.Has anyone ever thought or tried that? My current setup is also a dual monitor.I put the MFCD on the second monitor. :)
dooom Posted February 17, 2019 Posted February 17, 2019 maybe look into running lotatc ... this might work for SP but i doubt anything could be done for MP due to cheating. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=162096&highlight=lotatc https://www.lotatc.com/about_lotatc.html ASUS Tuf Gaming Pro x570 / AMD Ryzen 7 5800X @ 3.8 / XFX Radeon 6900 XT / 64 GB DDR4 3200 "This was not in the Manual I did not read", cried the Noob" - BMBM, WWIIOL

My friends around me also warned me about the possibility of cheating in a multiplayer game. I'm just a beginner at the moment, and multiplayer is not a big draw for me at the moment. What I am concerned about now is the fun of flying and the beautiful scenery outside. As I get more and more familiar with DCS in the future, I believe I will ask for a more realistic operating environment. :)
Snacko Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 You could take a screenshot when the map is displayed and paste it into Paint on the 2nd monitor?

PrtScr : Ctrl+V Sent from my Moto Z Play using Tapatalk I wanted to be able to see where I was flying in real time, not just a screenshot. I'm now starting to practice closing the ground equipment tags, and I've only kept the aircraft and the missile tags, I always lose my bearings when I fly over the enemy and circle back. Although I try to remember the relative relationships among the landscape, rivers and roads, I often fail. I hope the F10 map feature will help me overcome this problem. Just like the MFCD can be displayed on the second monitor.
will- Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 are you familiar w/ the kneeboard? Intel i9-9900K 32GB DDR4, RTX 2080tiftw3, Windows 10, 1tb 970 M2, TM Warthog, 4k 144hz HDR g-sync.
spoon95 Posted February 19, 2019 Author Posted February 19, 2019 are you familiar w/ the kneeboard? I have used kneeboard. But I am not familiar with it He needs me to mark my current position all the time, which is not known by watching it instantly. Moreover, I need to manually mark him all the time If showing a map on a second monitor was not feasible, I had to overcome the problem. But I hope we can find a way to solve it.
smallberries Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Well, it's not the same as the F10 map with the moving icons, but I think Will was referring to the fact that if you hit Ctrl-K, it will mark your position on the kneeboard. The kneeboard is easy to place on another monitor without triggering any integrity-check issues if I'm correct, so you wouldn't get realtime location indication, but you could manually mark your location and heading occasionally, as a compromise.

Thank you very much for your reply and Suggestions. :) I'll first try to figure out how to get the kneeboard to move to the second monitor.
smallberries Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 You need to edit viewporthandling.lua, there's a thread in here somewhere....
SolUniverse Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 You need to edit viewporthandling.lua, there's a thread in here somewhere.... if you edit the viewporthandling.lua I get a nonpure client and doesnt pass integrity check.
