BaD CrC Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Hi all, Do you guys know if it is possible to display the ABRIS when the secondary screen is portrait oriented? Is there a built in function in BS to tell that or do I have to tweak the Nivida drivers/utilities? Thanks. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden
JDski Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 If your monitor is able to swivel into portrait mode, didn't it come with software that automaticly rotates the display when you rotate your monitor? Mine did. But I couldn't tell you how to go about working it out with the ABRIS display though.
ruprecht Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 I'm sure you could, but you'd need to match the vertical resolution with the main display so you didn't have problems with the multiplayer menu.

Guest concern Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 ABRIS in portrait Yep...it's possible. I run a landscape monitor on the left at 2560x1600 and a portrait monitor on the right @ 1200x1920. I use two separate Nvidia cards, and the Nvidia drivers take care of rotating the right display into portrait. I have a config for BlackShark that runs the camera on the left and the Shkval and ABRIS on the right. This config definitely works, though the framerate suffers a bit. My options.lua file has the following: ["graphics"] = { ["multiMonitorSetup"] = "2monitors", ["color"] = "32", ["heatBlr"] = 1, ["scenes"] = "high", ["water"] = 2, ["fullScreen"] = false, ["visibRange"] = "High", ["aspect"] = 3.1, ["textures"] = 2, ["shadows"] = 3, ["display_mode"] = { ["avi"] = { ["bpp"] = 32, ["resolution"] = "640x480", ["full_screen"] = false, ["aspect"] = 1.333333333, ["height"] = 480, ["width"] = 640, }, -- end of ["avi"] }, -- end of ["display_mode"] ["effects"] = 3, ["lights"] = 2, ["haze"] = 1, ["terrPrld"] = "20", ["height"] = 1600, ["resolution"] = "2560x1600", ["civTraffic"] = 1, ["width"] = 4960, }, -- end of ["graphics"] and my monitorsetup lua file is as follows. NB the filename of this needs to match the line from the options files for multimonitorsetup. My file is called 2monitors.lua: Description = 'Camera on the left, Shkval and ABRIS on the right' Viewports = { Center = { x = 1200; y = 0; width = 2560; height = 1600; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 1.6; } } Shkval = { x = 3760; y = 0; width = 600; height = 600; } ABRIS = { x = 4360; y = 0; width = 600; height = 1100; }
