Magic Rat Posted May 19, 2020 Posted May 19, 2020 I changed the setting to where instead of showing on 1 monitor it is "Camera + RMFD".....so game is on left of monitor only and MFD is on the right.....but now I can't change it back because the "settings" page isn't shrunk like everything else...so when I try to change it back to "1 Monitor" the right hand bottom of the screen is off the page and you can't change anything. I don't want to screw it up further by tinkering with anything else. How to I get it back to "1 Monitor" and save it?
Rudel_chw Posted May 20, 2020 Posted May 20, 2020 rename options.lua to options.bak on /saved games/dcs/config/ and then run DCS again, it should start with default settings.

StickleBrix Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 A dazzling start to my noob' DCS career - messing with screen settings/placement and got from fullscreen to split stereo to a half screen display then found no way to get out of it ! Close,reboot always got me back to the half view screen with most of the required options off screen. What to do.. Followed the advice and found the option.lua file and, hey, now we are back in the game. Is there a simpler way to solve this?? Thx Brix

What could be simpler than renaming a file? :) For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
