I am setting up to have a go with BMS as eyefinity is now working well but I have a problem.

The extraction of instruments is not working.

I have the game running in a window and took away the borders. My eyefinity config is 3 monitors with a 4th touchscreen. So, i made the in game resolution span the3 eyefinity monitors. No issues there. Next I set an MFD to appear at coords 6000,100 at around 370x370 HxW. This would put it on the left side of the forth monitor in about the same place I export the mfd from dcsa10. I know that this is the correct screen co-ord for my set up.

So, nothing is there. Not sure what to do as I know I am running in windowed mode.

just in case there was an issue with it spanning to the other monitor I ran it in windowed mode with a res of 1920x1080 and the game appeared on the left monitor of my eyefinity set up. Also as I expected so I set the mfd to appear at 2000, 100. Same thing, It does not appear.

I am not sure what I am missing. I read a part in the manual but it is out of date as the extraction program from the launcher seems to do what it suggests.

Any other ideas?

Thanks!

Bah, stupid me. There was a line in the manual just below a pic that I missed which I needed to set, I.e. turn external windows on...

Metal, if you get your touchscreen working mind if you post how? I don't think anyone's gotten their touchscreen to work properly with BMS. On their forums it's been listed as an issue.

Hi, I was planning on using helios and being a bit lazy at the moment I was probably only going to use an existing profile which may not have much more than the mfd's and icp.

OK, using the latest helios which was released in the last week it is working with the latest BMS. I only have the icp going but it was no problem. Now ot map the osb's for the mfd's.
