Ikarus is another one. But both Helios and Ikarus does not export the MFDs. What do you actually want to know?

Cheers!

Show me the screen arrangement in Windows, and I will be able to tell you what to do.

Two things. MFDs are different from gauges. MFDs are "screens" and gauges use the export.lua.

This is why I need to see your screen setup, and to be honest you just ask "how", without giving any info of what you've tried, so I just have to guess your issues.
Lets start with MFDs only.

So, take a screenshot in Windows of your screen arrangement. Press "LWin + LSfht + S" to get this:

Start Helios, and you will see the same.

Click "Profile - Add Interface - DCS Monitor Setup - Add"

Now, depending on your screen setup, you want all the screens to be used, (green rectangle), but you only want to display the GUI and game on your main screen, (red rectangle), so all your mini screens should be grayed out, (blue rectangle). I admit it took a me a few tries to grasp the concet myself, but once you get it, it's easy.

Can you try this first? Remember to save the profile as whatever, and Helios will write/update the correct monitor file, and you need to select Helios in DCS again. If you run into your last issue, download Notepad++ and open and edit the options.lua file, back to your original resolution.

Cheers!
