P3Dv3: Multimonitor Distortion fix. When if ever ?

Post by Saldo »

Hello team,

P3Dv3.0 does not have a multimonitor Distortion fix . Will it ever be implemented ?
Many people have asked for it and you would take a serious look at it.

P3Dv3.0 is a great application, but the stretched side views , with a multimonitor view setup spoils still a lot.

Regards,
Gerard

Yes I have to agree, for the platform to be used to its full potential this is a must, I run 3 "40 widescreen LED monitors and the fish eye effect at the periphery is very ugly and obvious

please take a look at this LM

thanks

I am trying the Elise Immersive Pro program , but it is very difficult to find the right correction settings manually.
And if I ever succeed it will cost 150 euros . They are having a 30 day trial.

If LM would take a look at the Distortion Fix topic , started and made by Denali at Avsim from last year they can download it and try it themselves.
Then they can use that as a start.

Hopefully they will solve this once and for all....

Hi,

If it's not possible to clean up the distortion on the outer monitors. Is there a way to Undock 2D monitors to the outer sides, select the view we want and then lock them together like surround so the monitors rotate correctly.

It is possible to correct it .
A beta can be doenloaded too. This Fix corrects the distortion , but you will loose AA.

Anyway, you are able to see that it is possible !

I see that the solution is based upon undocked Windows, but I get massive FPS hit with them. And it seems it is long known issue with FSX/P3D. What kind of frames do you get in this setup? What's the CPU/GPU?

Nice pdf , but no solution. ...
Three undocked Windows cause a 70-80% framerate dip.

We need an improved fix like the Distortion Fix from Denali.
I am sure that LM can improve his Plugin with in a day/days.

Hi All,

You may be interested to try this out:

This is for true geometrical correction taking into account the eye-point, LCD panels sizes, orientation and bezels.
