October 19, 200520 yr This (reduced for posting) is what 2D screens looked like originallyhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/130421.jpgHowever the panel is just a window which you can grab the edges of and resize to look correct as far as turning the oval gauges into round dials:http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/130422.jpg
October 19, 200520 yr I would sugges move the resized panel window to the left and place the radio panel to the right.and you are good to go. The black on either side is a waster real estate. Manny Beta tester for SIMStarter
October 19, 200520 yr That's a good idea Manny, then resize the radio panel to fit properly. It won't look weird if it's a little out of shape. billg
October 20, 200520 yr Hi there,I'll take some screens once I have some time and am at home. In the meantime: Is there anything in particular (as in a particular add-on or scenario)you would like to see?Regards,Alex
October 20, 200520 yr Alex,Thank you for replying.Yes, definitely some screenshots of the 2d Panel and the Virtual Cockpit. I would like to see some shots in and outside of the aircraft as some of the posts indicate that you can see more real estate. I am also concerned about the refresh rate and response time. Are you seeing any ghosting with 12 ms response time and at what refresh rate are you running at 1920x1200? Thank you.
October 20, 200520 yr Well, ...as far as the ghosting goes: FS is not too fast anyway so the issue would be more prominent in other applications. So far I've watched DVD's, HDTV, and played BF2 without ever noticing any ghosting at all :)In regards to the refresh rate: 60Hz is standard for this screen (as is for most TFT's).Please give me some time for the screens, I'm pretty busy at the moment, but I won't forget ;-)Cheers,Alex
October 21, 200520 yr Yes, I'd like to see more screenies too if you'd be so kind. I'm days away from ordering a 2405 though I will likely go with a refurbished. Thanks.
October 21, 200520 yr Where are you purchasing a refurbished unit? How much are they selling them for? Thanks.
October 21, 200520 yr Dell Outlet -- http://outlet.us.dell.com/Dispatcher?targe...ory=MO&tgtSeg=II have a friend who has this monitor. Though he's not a simmer, he's happy with it. I may also get on the horn with Dell sales and try to see how cheap they'll sell me one new.

October 22, 200520 yr Here is my setup with the 2405. I too absolutely love it. I can't wait to put another 24 next to the one I have now...

October 22, 200520 yr Ultra cool!!! Now you got me thinkin' about an additional, smaller LCD or two.What do you use for a joystick or yoke?Ed Lin, D.O.S.
October 22, 200520 yr Very nice setup!!! I am seriously considering the Dell 24 inch now. Do you have to use special software to get the views on your 19' LCD's? Also, are you having to stretch your 2D panel? I have not done any VC flying but I think the 24 inch would make me want too. Definitely more real estate. Thanks!
