Majesco Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) Hi all Yesterday night, i tried to export 2 F-18 MFDs to other 2 small monitors with 4:3 ratio My main screen resolution is 2560x1440 and other 2 small monitors res all are 8 inch/4:3/1024x768. I've exported MFD at center and set them from the bottom of the display. All were exported exactly as i wish. But the main screen ratio was wrong, picture shrinked in horizontal so i need some help. Monitors in order: Main screen + Left MFCD on the right + Right MFCD on the right of the left MCD My configuration . lua file: re-edit LMFCD+Camera+RMFCD Left MFCD/ RMFCD: width/ height: 686/ 686 (display area) Main screen: X = 0 Y= 1440 (start export to monitors from the bottom of the main screen) Width/ height: 2560/ 1440 Aspect ratio: 1.777777778 (2560/ 1440) or 3/2 ( 4608/ 1440) Total res in horizontal: 2560+1024+1024 = 4608/ height: 1440 Where am i wrong and which ratio value need to be corrected ? Thanks Not good at English too! Edited October 14, 2021 by Majesco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majesco Posted October 14, 2021 Author Share Posted October 14, 2021 Thank you Hobel, i delete all the last line "GU_Mainview=Viewport.center" Set resolution = 4608x1440, ratio: 1.7777777778, that works great, main screen return to normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilbur81 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Hey, fellas. Just out of curiosity: When exporting any DCS display like this, with Helios or otherwise, can you still play in the alt+enter full screen mode in order to benefit from that nice little FPS boost? Thanks in advance! i7 8700K @ Stock - Win10 64 - 32 RAM - RTX 3080 12gb OC - 55 inch 4k Display Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foka Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 You have to set exported screens size correctly. I have it like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majesco Posted October 17, 2021 Author Share Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) @Foka: yes, of coure i set screens size in horizontal and vertical correctly, picture displayed at the center and from bottom of the screens. Now i add more code for exporting 4 of 5 F-14 displays to my 2 screens, first is the pilot VDI and the second includes 3 others: RIO DDD, ECMD and RIO TID display. Those work well Edited October 17, 2021 by Majesco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobel Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) Interesting. Only the radar screen is not so big for nothing, you limit your view so? As an example with me in the f16 I have the mfds 1000x1000 to simply see more. But everyone as he wants Edited October 18, 2021 by Hobel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the Chinese industrial touch/ non-touch monitor from Shenzen Zhixianda Technology You can easily find them on Aliexpress Shopping Center, i've got 2 non-touch screens with the cost of $60 per each. https://m.vi.aliexpress.com/wholesale/Zhixianda+8+inch+4:3.html?osf=direct 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foka Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 And I used these, working good, just they don't have andy casings, just naked screens, but it's easier to use them in home built cockpit. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000108986278.html?spm=a2g0s.8937460.0.0.43492e0eB8Vdj7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
