Nickkerkwijk Posted January 3, 2024 Posted January 3, 2024 (edited) Hi, i never expected the need to come here but here i am. I bought the MFD Cougar screens from Thrustmaster with a little screen with an 1366x768 resolution, My main screen has a 1080x1920 resolution. I watched some tutorials but i cannot get it to work, i already had to lookup how to fix my DCS resolution because it was bad Can someone explain to me what resolution i have to use in DCS and how to get this working? I want DCS on my main screen and want to split the Pisichen 11.6 inch screen in half for 2 MFDs. Thanks Edited January 3, 2024 by Nickkerkwijk [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

It has a GUI for setting the screens correctly, and will also write correct export files for yo.Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk 1

As I remember, a strange thing in in DCS was that you needed to set up the resolution to the combined resolution of all your monitors. In your case if you have a 1920x1080 and are locating a 1366x768 monitor under it, your DCS resolution would be 1920x1848 (1080+768). That may not be the case anymore, and it sounds like Helios may have eliminated any manual settings required..

Late reaction but after days of fiddling it finally works. If i have to do it again i dont think i can make it work again But now i also get a red integritycheck in multiplayer.. i think it comes because i edited a file in MonitorSetup via Notepad++ Is this normal or did i make a mistake?
