Blizz003 Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 Hi! I looked around a bit and couldn't find any info that might help me... maybe someone here knows... Ive got two monitors hooked up and working... I use the little guy as my main view screen, but im wondering if theres a way to set the secondary monitor (33" HDMI TV) to external view? maybe just showing constant flybys... or it would be nice if it would snap to target and incoming missiles...

metalnwood Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 No you cant do that. You can make the main view span across to the other monitor but you can't render independent views on it.

At best you will get the steady "painting" tone if the other aircraft locks on to you with his radar for ranging information.

Could you or someone here please point me to the thread giving the info on how to do this? Or explain? Thanks.

Eihort Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 I think the short version is you set up the displays side-by-side in the windows control panel. Add the pixels up for total width. Put DCS World in windowed mode, and define the main screen in the configs as the entire thing. So for three screens running 1920x1080 it would be 5760x1080. What I have is a 24" monitor running as main, and a much smaller 1028x960 running my MFDs with the Cougar Frames velcroed to it. The procedure for setting that up is somewhat similar.
