Triple Monitor settings have a problem


Recommended Posts

Seems BoS wasn't intended for triple wide screens. If it was, wouldn't they put the info on the center screen? The minimap is at the far right...unusable in that position...and can't be moved.
Start scquence and other info is at the far right...not readable.

How about an update that puts things on the screen as an offset from the center rather than the edges. They finially did that in Insurgency.  In Rise of Flight they made things movable.

 

Also, the 'o' map is huge since the designers won't let you zoom out to the point the left and right edges show.  The result is, with triple screen, the relative zoom level is 3x what the single screen shows.

 

Another update per chance? :-)

Indeed, triple-screen setups aren't properly supported at the moment. Sadly, this is unlikely to change in the near future (see this post)

Triple-screen setups, or more generally wide aspect ratios (including 21:9), suffer from a number of bugs:

  • The sun glare effect is stronger on triple-screen than on standard 16:9, and the bomber UI is unusable in this configuration.
  • There are also other game UI issues, for instance the score list gets off-center to the right, menu buttons are moved far out, the in-game map is zoomed in.
  • In flight ground textures look fuzzier on the left side.

Are these issues on the team's radar?

 

Now it's not on radar - too much changes need ot be done for native 3-screens and too less customers have 3-screen. May be later.

+2 (my son and I both have triple screen setups) and If word gets out that a flight sim supports triple screen with little fuss then you may attract more customers.  There are large forums devoted to wide and triple screen setups.  And Im the kind of guy who would "whore" the game out over there too.  And many talented guys and gals would help if the devs have any questions as well. 

 

FYI BOS looks great in triple screen portrait mode.
