Main screen off center when not using WinWing DPI...suggestions?


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, I am addressing in particular all those who have purchased the WinWing monitors, I recently bought two and installed them with the SimAppPro software.

I managed to configure everything, the monitors work smoothly and it is a nice immersive experience. I noticed a strange situation though, when I keep the DDIs turned off (I unplug the USB) and start the simulator in the launcher I obviously select "1 screen" with the resolution of the main monitor.

When the sim starts, the main image is moved downwards, meaning that it is not automatically centered on the monitor. To fix the situation, I have to restart the simulator and in the luanchere I have to activate the "winwing" item in the drop-down menu.

Why does this happen? If the DDIs are detached why is the main image not centered on the monitor?

Thanks to those who can explain to me how to solve the problem

That's weird - but as well as changing the monitor option between one-monitor/ww, is the screen resolution set properly as well.

Main monitor would show 1920x1080 (or whatever it is)

WW's active (assuming underneath, in portrait 768x1080?) would increase that to 1920x2160.

If it thinks its still at 2160 (or whatever) its trying to centre against that resolution

I can think of nothing heavier than an airplane
I can think of no greater conglomerate of steel and metal
I can think of nothing less likely to fly

È strano, ma oltre a cambiare l'opzione del monitor tra un monitor e tutti gli altri, anche la risoluzione dello schermo è impostata correttamente?

Il monitor principale mostrerebbe 1920x1080 (o qualsiasi altra risoluzione)

WW attivo (supponendo sotto, in verticale 768x1080?) aumenterebbe la risoluzione a 1920x2160.

Se pensa che sia ancora a 2160 (o qualunque sia) sta cercando di centrarsi contro quella risoluzione

My main monitor has a resolution of 3440x1440, then I have a second secondary monitor connected with a resolution of 3840x2160. Finally, there are the two WW DDIs.
Normally, when the two WW DDIs are not connected it should start with the resolution of the main monitor and therefore with 3440x1440 with the "1 screen" option active. If I leave this last option active (1 screen) it starts decentralized... it asks me for the "winwing" option even when the DDIs are off.

You could explore the config files directly at: \DCS World\Config\MonitorSetup (take backups!) My 1Camera.lua shows the below. Maybe try editing it to width 3440 height 1440?

_  = function(p) return p; end;
name = _('1 Screen');
Description = 'One monitor configuration'
Viewports =
{
     Center =
     {
          x = 0;
          y = 0;
          width = screen.width;
          height = screen.height;
          viewDx = 0;
          viewDy = 0;
          aspect = screen.aspect;
     }
}
GU_MAIN_VIEWPORT = Viewports.Center
