JF-18 is supported now, as much as I ever expect it will be. The TSHv3 addon allows a selection of 1920x480 and the use of the widescreen cockpit. I'm off to test AF.

Looking into sims that support TH2D. Pulled out IL-2 forgotten Battles. The max resoloution is 2048 x 1536. With the 3 screens does this mean it runs 800 x 600 per screen? this being the case, were the sims you tried at 800 x 600? I am not sure how it all works. I think the older LCD's ran 4/3 thus would this be better for the older sims? I should try to read up more to understand what resoloutions make it work. Thanks for the help. Hard to believe I do electrical technical stuff for a living.

I think that if you have a TripleHead2Go then triplehead resolutions (i.e. 3840x1024) would appear in the IL-2 game options. If you want me to check it out I can do that; I have the game but don't play it.

If you do get the chance... please try it out. The IL2 series is, IMHO, one of the best out there and I would *love* to be able to play it in surround....

Hi JKeefe could you please? I'd buy Triple Head, new computer and 3 x 22" monitors just for that sim. Flashed it up for the first time last night and was really impressed with the graphics and flight models. If IL@ FB runs at 1024 x 768 per monitor I can see some great flying for me this winter coming. Did SF-1 have a res. of 1024 x 768 in each monitor? That's another good sim though I seem to prefer IL-2 FB. Was late for work this morning due to flying it untill 4 am last night.

Yes, SFP! ran at 1024x768 on each monitor. See the screenshot above labeled 3072x768? :)

I'll test IL-2.

Thanks for going out of your way in testing and posting all this. When GSC Mac vestion of F-18 2.0 back in 1996 supported 3 monitors. Nonetheless, 11 years later who would thing monitors would be so cheap thus the ability to really do some serious surround flying. Your testing is well appreciated. I am suprised this topic isn't being spoken much on the forums. They seem more occupied about ( not so much on Sim HQ ) but on other forums to complain about how the latest patch isn't good enough. Man, I appreciate everything the community has to offer in a positive way to improve flight sims and the community. This stuff with 3 monitors is what it's all about!
