Dual Monitor Panel View Configuration

[caspernzl]

Hi

Before I go any further I realise I may just be asking for the impossible but it never hurts to ask. :-)

I'm wanting to display two panel views. (1) Main Panel on one screen and (2) Left Front View on 2nd Monitor.

This can be acheived by using WideView but the transfer rate between two boxes arn't that great.

I have a ATI Radeon 9600Pro 256MB Dual Display Card on my main machine. I was wondering if FS2004 can be configured to display two different panel views across two screen connected to the single graphics card.

Any help greatly received.

A Graphics card with multi VGA output. "ATI Radeon" and some custom panels. And thats it.

How did you do this?????

Aren't you seeing a big hit on framerates using just the one AGP card?

I am not sure what senerio your question is refering to. The only time I get an extremely bad fps hit is when in windowed mode I stretch the 'scenery view window' across both monitors. Goes from say about 50 to 2. lolol

When I use Fs9 with the AGP driven monitor for the views and one PCI driven monitor for the TCAS and GNS530 gauges, I get between 30 to over 100 fps. I use full-screen mode after dragging my gauges to the other monitor.

The same goes for the setup I am currently experimenting with; using a TVI to CRT converter; hence, both monitors are running off my AGP card and my second monitor is in 'Extended' mode.

When I use helicopters I have seen frame rates way over 100.

Found a workable solution which doesn't required any 3rd party software this is what I wanted to acheive see attached file.
