I was hoping with the last update they might fix the multi-monitor features but they haven't. I have 3 TVs, with left and right at 45 degrees. My seating position is to the left of the center of the middle TV.

As you can see below, the yellow line on the right is crooked. On the left you can see how warped the lines look. No matter what offset I change, I can't seem to get it right. Apparently they need to put in a frustrum setting, whatever that is.

Or, I think, you could compensate by positioning the two outside monitors at different angles? I think you will also find that you can only get the lines to truly match up at one vertical position, which is why your lines get more skewed further up the screen.

The multi-screen feature is a fantastic addiition even as is but yes, it needs some finesse before it's finished. They desperately need to add a per-screen zoom factor, since I can't see any sensible way to mix screen sizes.

Hi there,

I'm very interested in a multi-monitor setup, but consider myself as waaay too picky for this. Here's a very helpful video:

 

Take care

Not very many people have the space to position the monitors at a 60-90 degrees angle.

The smaller the angle the higher the zoom level needs to be.

Hopefully Asobo will add the X axis to the MM feature. Or at least add an extra feature like 30-60 degrees angle and 60-99 degrees angle as a starting point.

The sim assumes that you are sitting at the center point of the center monitor.  If you sit to the left of that the view will be skewed and not look correct.

The frustrum settings, which MSFS does not have at the moment, can be used to correct that.  Basically, it means you can, for example, set the center monitor view angle at 30 degrees on the left and 50 degrees on the right.  This will shift a corrected view to where you are sitting.  I've had to play with the angles in the "other" simulator to get it to look right.  Everything depends on exactly where you are sitting in relationship to your monitors.

My understanding is that Asobo is looking into doing something along these lines.

just had a play in XP12 and it's SO EASY to get something much better looking with triple screens placed in front of you, rather than to the side

hopefully MSFS figure this out
