Flight simulator 2 side monitors stretched

Post by pilotmathew »

Hello all I have matrox triple head to go digital edition with a computer with gtx780 and flight simulator is setup each monitors resolution is 1920 X 1080 and the total resolution on all screens is 5760 X 1080 so when I select it in the flight simulator x it loads the screen in the middle looks very clear but the 2 side monitors look stretched out what can I do to fix this?
I already edited the fsx.cfg and change the wide aspect to true .

I use FSX on 5980x1080 Eyefinity, yes there is a bit of stretch on the side Monitors, i found no fix for it.

A few things, you should do:
Tweak your FSX CFG File with that: http://www.venetubo.com/fsx.html
It Really gives a good performance boost, use conservative mode.

Install Shader Model 3 MOD for Flight Simulator X (v1.6) by Bojote, gives better performance, DL:

If you run your Monitors 3x1L as one Ultrawide Monitor and want to use the 2D Cockpit, you need to tweak the panel CFG File:
[Window00]
window_size=1.000, 1.000
to
[Window00]
window_size=0.333, 1.000
otherwise, it wont show up and FS will respond with issues.

If your Runway,PAPI etc Lights are to Big:
Insert this into your FSX CFG File under the [DISPLAY] sextion:
RUNWAY_LIGHTS_SURFACE_SCALAR=0.9 //Runway Lights
RUNWAY_LIGHTS_VASI_SCALAR=0.9 // VASI Lights
RUNWAY_LIGHTS_APPROACH_SCALAR=0.9 // Approach Bars
RUNWAY_LIGHTS_STROBE_SCALAR=0.9 // Strobes

And install this Light Textures, just copy in your FSX folder and replace, may BAckup your orgs.:

Recommended entrys in FSX CFG FIle:
[Main]
DisablePreload=1
FS Loads up the menu faster, because he is not loading the default flight fully before the menu appears.

Tips:
Run not in DX11 Preview Mode, FPS hit, and problems with some addons.
Set Framerate to Unlimited, and limit it to 30FPS with an external Limiter, i use RadeonPro. (Under Tweaks, Dynamic Framerate Control)
Dont use the Antialiasing tick in FSX, it hits your performance, i use SMAA Ultra with RadeonPro. (Under Visual)
You can also use SweetFX for eyecandy, also set in RadeonPro. (DL SweetFX set path in settings)

Hope i could help you a bit, as i had a hard time, finding oue the fixes for Multimonitor and getting good performance tweaks (Most on the net is outdated).
Cheers
