But normally, with both curved and flat monitors, you place them in an angle
and I think JHTrucker will talk about that with you. Think of the displays ahead
of you as fitting on a circle, depending here on the FOV settings. Well, I will now
shut up and leave you for the expert.

correct, I've seen them like this too. I put them this way to have a normal computer on the right, to work or facebook, etc. . .
the left will have the driving place, with the image of the truck expandable up to the right monitor, and give a broader sense to the dashboard

@blades87

You don't want to move the right monitor to be angled because you like the right side for normal pc use... what happens when someone comes through that door behind it?

Anyway, i did try and failed a few times to get a dual flat image (driver side & passenger side), the right image just stretches badly.
My dual that you pointed to "option 3" with the wheel offset to the right of the left monitor was to do exactly what you want, driver mirror and passenger mirror in view. You can't move your seat over to line up with the on screen wheel because of your button box shifter etc.

The problem with keeping the wheel centered on the left means you lose the drivers mirror and bring the passenger mirror back into the middle of the right monitor.

I'll have another look to see if there's a different way to do it, no promises, but when i made all those multimon files we here in the UK were on lock down, so nothing much else to do!

Hi there :)

Thx for all the breat work. I just "installed" everything from page 1, did the settings in NPI and in the config and it works so far. Now i have 2 remaining questions.

1.) I am using 4 monitors, but only 1 for ETS2. How can i manage to choose what monitor i'd like to use for ETS2? I cant find a setting within the ingame-menu.
2.) AA works great ingame, but not in menu. I did the correct setting
uset g_menu_aa_limit "8"
but i wont work as it should. Is there anything more i can do?

Thanks

@Franz Meersdonk

Welcome! Let's see if I can be of any help here.
1. Without knowing for sure, I haven't tested it, but I believe the game will choose the monitor set as PRIMARY display.
2. The menu system in the game uses a special resolution and the multimonitor config alter that slightly to remedy graphics anomalies,
but is that REALLY a problem? The main thing is that you get proper AA when driving, am I right?

Thanks :)

Okay i can live with no AA in the menu.

In many games i can choose on what monitor the game will run, so i was hoping that there is some setting within the config or other file.

@Franz Meersdonk

I'm not aware of a way to get the game choosing other than PRIMARY display, maybe someone else can tune in here!
I assume btw that you use the multimon_config.sii file for SINGLE monitor use!
