johnbeam1 Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Is anyone using multiple monitors with Huey? I got it working but would like to know if its possible to have a view on my other monitor that is just snap view of instruments and doesn't move with the main view? I don't know if this is even possible?
Telomere Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 It's possible, but it will absolutely kill your framerate. Standard multi-monitor DCS renders the scene once and stretches it across three screens. This results in huge distortion at the edges, but most people live with it. The alternative is to render the scene once per monitor... this allows you to have much less distortion (or even a totally different perspective for each monitor, as you are talking about), but the frame rate will likely drop to unplayable levels unless you have an amazingly powerful PC. I can't remember the exact method/setting to change between the two methods; I think one of the default 3-screen setups uses the second method though (rusty memory). [edit] Also, I'm not sure if it's possible to disable view movement (e.g. TrackIR) on only one of the monitors.
