Hi, new guy here but old IL-2 1946 player.
I have Triple Head and I'm very happy with it, especially in the old IL-2 with its Use3Renders=1 option, which combined with SaveAspect=1 gives me exactly the view I was hoping for when I got Triple Head.
Other sims like MS's one and 777's RoF dont have the handy Use3Renders option but at least they let you zoom out quite a lot, which isnt really as good as Use3Renders but still kind of acceptable.
In IL-2 CoD however, I tried adding the lines Use3Renders=1 and SaveAspect=1 but the game ignored them, and the worst part is that nowhere in the UI could I find any 'Zoom-in/Zoom-out' control.
As it looks like right now, all I can do is to set FoV to 30, 70, or 90 degrees... but that spans over the whole 3-monitor set, resulting in a view that is comparable to... imagine a regular 4:3 monitor, very large but still 4:3. Now imagine it divided in 3 horizontal slices, each 1/3 of the screen's height. All I see is the middle 'slice'.
I refuse to believe that a modern game like CoD doesnt accomodate the needs of Triple head users (most of which BTW are flight sim freaks like myself). There must be a way, but... how?
Please help me with this issue, and please consider the possibility of making setup easier for Triple Head users.
Thanks
