WideViewAspect=0

Recommended Posts

...for those with wide view monitors...there is the turn on WideVIewAspect in P3D.

Well, quess what..it is in the Flightsimulator.cfg file on line 30...with it turned off..but IT IS THERE...

I just set mine to WideViewAspect=1 and saved with Note Plus +

That will correct your fish eye when you go to External Camera, as well as when you pan inside the cockpit..on a wide view monitor such as a 3440x1440.  Fish Eye gone...

Isn't WideViewAspect the appropriate setting for something like 99% of monitors in use today? Why isn't it enabled by default?

Good point  I think it came along with the 16.9 aspect ratio years ago.

For me, the WPSystem (I installed everything on separate drive) is the original folder. I think it must be symlink or something similar - didn't research it yet. And those two folders have the same content.

Great find, however when I implement it, MSFS keeps returning it to 0 every time I exit the sim.

This wideviewaspect is for ultrawide monitors, 21:9, and there is also a setting inside a sim to turn it on.
