widescreen support?

[chrsmat71]

Hi everyone,

I'm sure this is mentioned somewhere here but I'll be darned if I can find it. Does OFF have widescreen support?

 

Thanks!

I believe I found the selection available on the Workshops page - but I could be wrong.

Yes, that setting is for the manager. In flight you can also fly widescreen (once setup via cfsconfig or graphics setup in workshop).

Thank you for your replies!

HI Folks,

 

I was wondering how OFF will cope with all of these dumb 16:9 screens? I went to the computer shop today and there were very few 16:10. I had an exasperating two years until I got rid of my Viewsonic monitor which ALWAYS stretched the picture in Red Baron out to the edges of the screen (no black bars at the lateral edges) - and that was with EVERY combination of scaling options on the nVidia card I had. Viewsonic just undid everything I sent to it.

 

Got an LG now which has a hardware function which quickly allow 4:3, and never looked back.

 

Anyway, back to the original question: will OFF eventually be able to produce 16:9 pictures or will we have to wait for the video card blokes to put in 16:9, 16:10 and 4:3 scaling options?

 

Regards,

George.

If you go to the Config screen in workshops you may already have 1600 x 900 in there. I have it in mine, but it is using Nvdia drivers, and I can select it. When I experimented with (in search of faster FPS) it came up with black bands on the top and bottom (my native resolution is 1680 X 1050). So it should work for people with the 16 x 9 configuration without the black bands.
