This is no longer done via .lua edits? No this app doesn't need it, or rather it configures the. lua for you, user friendly, something ED are incapable of providing. Leaps and bounds above farting around with text files, and a joy to use, everything's drag and drop, less configuring more time flying. Apparently the latest version has expired for some, if you read the UltraMFCD forums you may get an inkling as to why it may not continue to be developed. ...you won't be surprised

I can imagine  Though if you provide a link, that would be fun reading.... Like I said before, in the 2 years that I was flying DCS A10C, ED has "relocated" some of the parameters I needed from one .lua file to another .lua file at least 3x. That has resulted in a day or two's downtime as I wait for the experts like PeterP to find where it is and how to modify it to get previous results.

I hear you, one of the main reasons I'm not flying at the mo' I did install DCS, saw how ugly is was in a vanilla state, remembered the mountain of configuration I needed to climb to get it to a decent state, realised that things would have been moved about again...hit uninstall. I don't have much free time due to freelancing, when I do get downtime I want to be enjoying not configuring. Sarge hasn't been around for a while by all accounts but this thread will give you the state of play: http://forum.ultramfcd.com/posts/t54-Latest-from-Eagle-Dynamics-regarding-any-form-of-cooperationMaybe he's just sick of having to work out what ED change in updates instead of being informed. Maybe ED have taken the idea and incorporated something similar, hence the refusal to co-operate. ...who knows, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I can't seem to get UltraMFCD to work in DCS V2.5.1. How can I manually move my MFD displays screen to a 4th monitor?
