Feature/Enhancement Summary

Create a general guide for setting up the spec'd screens in Window's display settings along with general DCS settings for exporting them to the pit. To include those who fly in VR.

AMPCD exporting while in VR POC notes. Windows monitor setup see screen print, 0,0 on the screen is upper right corner. DCS Settings: a. VR Tab -> VR Mirror Options - check Use DCS System Resolution. b. SYSTEM Tab i. Resolution = manually type values: primary display resolution Width + 600 x primary height. ii. Monitors = drop-down choose name in lua file, see attached example Camera + CENTERMFCD automatic placement POC lua file in folder ...\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Config\MonitorSetup attached here. Based off the auto placement examples in the folder. May need some tweaking as I'm not 100% convinced that 600x600 is correct or if the Y offset to move the AMPCD down is best. Camera+CENTERMFCD_auto_placement.lua.txt

Note. remove .txt from lua file name.

Instead of editing the EA file you can create in your saved games folder MonitorSetup, Rename as you like edit this line Name = _('Camera + CENTERMFCD automatic placement'); This is what will appear in the DCS setup.

I'm trying to get this to work with the Winwing MIP so far no luck though
