I tried Shift+Enter = Move viewpoint up down left right back forwrd and its alot better but now the headrest blocks my view when I go back too far, is there anyway round this?

ok ta

Sorry just realised you said screenshot from one screen only. Ill do it now... The only way I could get one screen going was in windowed mode. Is that ok? Sorry, Im not good at all this....

why are there 2 threads to this post now and why and where have my initial pictures gone?

It is the cfg file I am changing but not with note pad. I took this screen shot first.... Then I opened cfg in notepad as you said and WideViewAspect was back to False again, so I changed it and took another screen shot... Heres a screenshot of the file too just to make sure its correct

I have saved the file with with WideViewAspect=True The cockpit is still as large as before Here it is... InfoPauseEnable=True InfoSlewEnable=True InfoStallEnable=True InfoOverspeedEnable=True BLOOM_EFFECTS=0 SKINNED_ANIMATIONS=1 TEXTURE_BANDWIDTH_MULT=40 UPPER_FRAMERATE_LIMIT=20 WideViewAspect=True [Main] User Objects=Airplane, Helicopter SimObjectPaths.0=SimObjects\Airplanes SimObjectPaths.1=SimObjects\Rotorcraft SimObjectPaths.2=SimObjects\GroundVehicles SimObjectPaths.3=SimObjects\Boats SimObjectPaths.4=SimObjects\Animals SimObjectPaths.5=SimObjects\Misc Maximized=1 Ii actually have 2 fsx.CFG files One that windows will not open Is this normal? What does this mean? I usually just use eyepoint back & to the right to get more cockpit in view.?? Also tried Shift+Enter = Move viewpoint up S pmanhart suggested but it moves a different view to what I am looking for

Hi Thanks but changed to true and made no difference at all

Hi Thanks but changed to true and made no difference at all

virtual cockpit in every aircraft yes Ok I will try the false to true setting ​Full screen or windowed mode

Hi I cant seem to get my cockpit and the out front view on the screen at the same time. Its all too large...even after zooming out. I am using 2 x hanns g HG281D and 1 x hanns g HZ281 monitors and getting 6116 x 1200 x 32 in the game.Bezel corrected. Am I doing something wrong? Very frustrating having to move my view up and down to see out or to view my controls etc I can open a new window and place the dials in the right place but its messy. Pls help! Ideally I would like to get it like this guy.....!! I wish! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=441ThwLYd4g

Hi I cant seem to get my cockpit and the outside an the screen at the same time. Its all too large...even after zooming out. I am using 2 x hanns g HG281D and 1 x hanns g HZ281 monitors and getting 6116 x 1200 x 32 in the game.Bezel corrected. Am I doing something wrong? Very frustrating having to move my view up and down to see out or to view my speed. I can open a new window and place the dials in the right place but its messy. Pls help!

So which one is it true or false?

Hi I changed the cfg file to Widescreen aspect false Changed the res in the cfg file and changed it in the game, and although far better than when I started all this and you guys started helping me,the cockpit controls still seem large when zoomed out.I cant get my altitude and speed controls on the screen the same time as getting a good view out the front windscreen

Sorry for bein such a newbie pain, but I just cannot seem to post a screenshot. Ive read the help section for it and it says click gallery at top of every page then link but I just cannot find the link button. I have found the gallery with everyone else's pictures in it

Hi guys, I made a mistake yesterday, I hadnt found the bezel adjustment at all, but I have now!..... and I'm getting 6224x1200 on a 3 monitor stretch. It was wierd. No sign of Bezel management until I closed down the nvidia control panel and reopened it. Then the bezel window popped up. Thats why my post was incorrect. Now its better than it was but still quite big, even though it doesnt look like it in the screenshots below, because Ive dragged them to less than 600 pixels. Can I improve it anymore with the gear I have? Its taking alot longer to load the first time a mission is started. I suppose this is normal enough as it has to load onto all 3 yeah? My minimap compass is all stretched too. Can I fix this? Will raising the graphics now help the big look situation? Am I supposed to be in windowed or full screen mode? So to use my pc as normal I have to go back and undo everything yes, or is there a quick way?

Hi Ok, I tried selecting 'configure surround' in nvidia control panel,then 'span displays with surround'. Is that the bezel management? I'm now getting 5600x1200, after dragging across all 3 monitors but even when zoomed out fully the resolution is big and nasty lol

Mornin... Ok, I will do all that soon as I get a few hours to mess about with it. Would another gtx660ti card Let me run fsx at full settings with 4 monitors? A friend of mine was looking into some upgrades for my machine and recommended these parts. Can you let me know what you think and if they would make a big difference? ASRock Z77 Pro 4 S1155 Intel Z77 ATX Ivybridge Ready Motherboard Intel CPU Core i5 3470 Quad Core Processor Corsair Memory Vengeance Jet Black Low Profile 8GB DDR3 1600 MHz CAS 9 XMP Dual Channel Desktop He also said I may need a better CPU than the 500w I have. I also play battlefield3 and my parts advisor above does too and though he knows i play fsx he knows little about it I just wanna make sure those parts will run fsx as well as bf3 Or if not what parts would suit better?

Profile updated........

Hi 1920 x 1200 is the native resolution of all 3 monitors. I am not sure what you mean by 'what resolution did you end up with'? It says in the screen resolution window that 1920x1200 is the recommended resolution for one of the hg281d's and the hz281. Strangley enough though it says that 1920x1080 is the recommended res for the other hg281d. Why would the two same models have different res? Anyway I have them in this order.... hg281d -No.1 (rec.1920x1080) identifying as screen 1 plugged into hz281 (rec. 1920x1200) identifying as screen 2 plugged into the lower dvi hg281d - No. 2 (rec.1920x1080) identifying as screen 1 plugged into upper dvi They are actually two dual-link DVI connectors (one DVI-I and one DVI-D), a single HDMI port, and one DisplayPort output which I am intending to use a 4th monitor (Acer x193w 1440x900) for controls above my head I will update my profile asap.

Hi @Ron ...- did you use Nvidia Surround utility including the Bezel Management utility to set them up initially? No - what resolution did you end up with? Dont know how to check - how do you have them connected - DVI, HDMI, etc to which monitors? dvi to two and hdmi to one @Bartender...I have tried using a panel store program i found in a forum somewhere, but it doesn't work. Just says ini file not found all the time either in panel store or panel restore.

Whoops sorry! Thanks...

Hi I'm new here and I do not know if I am posting in the right place or correctly, and apologies if I'm not.... I have recently purchased FSX acceleration pack deluxe edition, Saitek Yoke, & pedals. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate, Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU [email protected] 32 bit Operating system NVIDIA GeForce GTX660ti 2 x Hanns G HG281D Monitors and 1 x HZ281 (Both 1920x1200) Ok, firstly, I am having a problem getting the 3 screens to line up so everything looks good. I can get it nearly there by setting the un-docked views to virtual cockpit, panning with the Hat button,linking all, and zooming in and out but it never lines up horizons and runways correctly? The 2 monitors on either side seem to be at the wrong angle? I have read many forums about changing values in cfg files from false to true in wideangle setting, frame rates, triple head to go (which I dont have btw) screen resolution, and many many other things and having tried all these things, nothing seems to work. Am I doing something wrong? Please let me know how I can fix this and what settings I should have. The next problem is that even with my new 660ti, I cannot seem to get the graphics to look good without the game crashing, or telling me that memory has run out. Do I need a 2nd 660? (I have improved the memory problem by using Firefox instead of chrome because chrome uses far more as you can see in the task manager) Even with graphics set to high or medium, the two side windows are not good in most missions. Again, please tell me the correct settings on either game or nvidia or monitor settings. What frame rate and other graphic settings should I be using for my monitors/card please? Lastly, I cannot seem to save the position of my 3 views so that they start that way every time I run the game. I spend ages getting them just ok, and then when the game is restarted I'm back to the center screen only Very frustrating and time consuming to the point where I do not feel like playing any more! I have tried using a panel store program i found in a forum somewhere, but it doesn't work. Just says ini file not found all the time either in panel store or panel restore. Please help! I just wanna fly! .- -. -.. / --- -. / - .... . / ... . ...- . -. - .... / -.. .- -.-- --..-- / --. --- -.. / --. .- ...- . / -- . / .-- .. -. --. ...

Hi all I am new here, I have just (at Xmas) purchased FSX, SaiteK Yoke and Pedals, 4 x 28'' monitors and I need help with a few different things, such as screen positioning, saving, angle of view etc. Where do I post these questions to for the best response please?
