    Help with Realistic NVG Mod

    So I'm trying to get the NVG mod installed but I'm having issues as I'm running triple 27" screens. Is there anyone else that is also running triple screens that can walk me through getting it installed correctly?

    What sort of trouble are you having with the mod?

    What is your three screen resolution?

    What happens if you run the mod without touching the configuration tool?

    I believe he is at 5760X1080. We gave him a JSGME ready mod for a 3 screen set up last night before the flight. Not sure if he's had a chance to test it out yet.

    I'm told it don't work, but easy-monitor configurator works great for me, it help port the MFCDs to the Lilli's. exporting not required, to use this. Could perhaps consider it. Update's would be a more HUGE pain with out it.

    This is the installer for EMC, you might spend some time on the Forums for making it work, its not too fussy at all.

    The Mod that Reaper suggeast I thing may work easer, I'm not sure it helps with exporting, but I don't think your doing that, EMC I recal being fussy, but it had more to do with how DCS was installed.

    The NVG mod on our website is set up for 1920x1080, which is why it'll work if you run single monitor. You need to change the config file for your specific resolution, that is the total res of your displays, including any lilliput screens etc., not just the main DCS viewport.

    If you're running 5760x1080 for DCS, that is your DCS viewport, but your total resolution will also include any MFD screens you use as well, which will likely make your total vertical resolution greater than 1080.
