Bump?

E-mail sent.

Email received - thanks again!

I got an e-mail but, no link or attachment. Anyone get anything like that?

Does this mean if you have Triplehead2Go you can use three monitors??

I would like to get this Fix or patch --- jlaf2112 AT ComCast DOT Net


THNX Looks Great too by the way and if this Sim Now will work in a Triple Screen I will be thrilled as I am setting up a Triple Screen setup

See the TAW Forum Thread "MFD Info Needed" last couple pages..

The sim already works in triplehead; select the 1920x480 screen resolution using the TSHv3 Manager.

However, since the FOV doesn't change, and the use of the FLIR messes with the TSH wideview option, it is problematic in triplehead, to say the least. I was initially very excited about Slikk's work that he has documented for this thread, but I was never able to make any of his solutions work satisfactorily for me.

I saw the SimHQ review of the triplehead2go in another thread and saw the problems with JF/A-18

@UnderTheRadar

I sent the files to you directly, twice. I'm not sure but maybe your e-mail cant except .exe files.

You can now download directly from the links below.

NOTE: The install path for the installer will probably not work for you because my game is probably not in the same folder as yours is. So make sure that the installer is directed to your F-18 root directory and you'll be fine.

Be sure to make a backup of your (F18.EXE) file just in case you want you go back to the way it was before.

Enjoy!

The downloads work great! Thank you SO much! This is something I've been wanting to see happen for a long time. You rock Slikk! Thanks again!

Hey, Slikk! Long time. Hope all is well.
I got a lost somewhere in this thread - remind me why there are three files?

@Eugene

Good to see you too bro.

Only one of the files is needed, it all depends on the resolution you use. Each of the files gives you a different aspect, so give each of them a try and see which one of them works best for you.

Slikk

Thanks, Slikk. Man, you are so creative!

Thanks a lot Slikk!

Slikk,

What do your installation files do? Do they modify F18.exe, or replace it with a modified version?

@Joe

1: The installation files simply install the F18.exe into your root folder.

2: The F18.exe that it installs dose not alter anything in the game except the aspect ratio. Other than that, the game play and every other aspect of the original F18.exe file is exactly the same.

Slikk

Ok, so it replaces the file.

I'm quite concerned about the part that I bolded. Did you base your modifications on the TSHv3.06 executable, or on the original F18.exe? That makes a big difference, and this thread needs to make clear what exactly is going on. I beleive from past discussions that this mod is actually based on the TSHv3.06 executable, which really means that TSHv3.06 is effectively required to use this.

@Joe

The wide view modifications are based on the TSHv3.06 executable, I fly on-line through HL with my squad, VMFA-323 Death Rattlers, and I also go on flights with some of the VFA-41 Black Aces. Both of these squads use TSHv3.06, and the wide view mod works when I fly off-line or on-line with no conflicts what so ever.

Slikk

Thanks for the clarification, Slikk. I know I didn't have as much luck with these in the past as other users did, but I'm going to have another go and take a harder look.

Slikk,

Whats the difference between the 3 executables? I just ran the first one and it seems to work fine.

Thanks again!

The three executables provide 3 different field-of-view values (i.e. three different degrees of wider views).
