August 5, 201114 yr It looks like the default screen for the NGX is wide screen. Does anybody know where the setting is to make it 4:3 mode. As I only have 4:3 monitors? I hope to get a wide screen soon. Many thanks Julian J u l ia n D i a m a n d i s
August 5, 201114 yr It is in the introduction manual. Page 12. You need to edit FSX.CFG. - Raul Ramirez
August 5, 201114 yr The mentioned FSX.cfg entry is only for for people who have a widescreen. FinnJ System: i7-10700K, 32GB RAM, RTX4070 12GB, 1 x 1TB SSD, 2 x 2TB SSD, 1x 2TB HDD, Win10 64bit Home, Meta Quest 3
August 5, 201114 yr Author I couldn't see anything about 4:3 screens?I have just letter boxed it, by pulling down the panels. But I bet there is a better way of doing this. Obviously I'm in the stone age with my monitors. J u l ia n D i a m a n d i s
August 5, 201114 yr I have a problem the other way around. I have no Wide Screen monitor and I have WideViewAspect=False in the fsx.cfg, but it seems as though the 2D panels should fit a wide screen, the panels all seem squashed into the display, any ideas? Craig Phillips Specs removed by Admin
August 5, 201114 yr I will look at it again i saw a setting somewhere...check the CDU while i look at the introduction for you...i am unable to see the plane right now. Give me a few. - Raul Ramirez
August 5, 201114 yr Maybe the answer lies in the panel.cfg. I will try looking at it and compare to the default 737...i know its very different but i will look for clues there. - Raul Ramirez
August 5, 201114 yr Well it does say widescreen, I guess one of the developers can ring in and help out in this subject. Although i think it was made for widescreens and may not be a simple edit though. - Raul Ramirez
August 5, 201114 yr Author Well wide screen is the future. Maybe there isn't a 4:3 option? J u l ia n D i a m a n d i s
August 5, 201114 yr I would make a backup of the panel.cfg and change the numbers in within Window_Size=. BE VERY CAREFUL and make sure you make a copy of the panel.cfg if you move anything thing. The first number should be horizontal and then vertical verify with another panel though. If you have no experience with editing settings within .cfg files i wouldn't move a thing and wait for someone to shed some light here. Again as i am unable to fiddle with the plane at the moment, i can only hint clues from what i've done before myself. - Raul Ramirez
August 5, 201114 yr Author It seems a bit heavy going. Having to go into CFG file to change bits of code to make this and that wok. With the MD11 there was a option widescreen or not. Oh well I guess I must get a wide screen monitor, and get with the times, to solve this problem. J u l ia n D i a m a n d i s
August 6, 201114 yr As I understand it the 4:3 panel has not yet been implemented but it is coming. Tom Landry
August 6, 201114 yr As I understand it the 4:3 panel has not yet been implemented but it is coming. Will that come about the same time the 6700 package, or we will get it faster than that? Cristi Neagu
