• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Adding Screen Calibration Markers

Hi,
I'm using Prepar3D on a 3 projector setup with a domed simulator screen. I can use the multi-screen feature of Prepar3D to create a nice continuous wrap around environment, so I am generally happy with that. However, it is important to me that the visuals are angularly correct. ie. if I pitch the aircraft nose up by 10 degrees, then the horizon must subtend a 10 degree offset when viewed from the ideal viewing position at the centre of the dome.

It enable me to do this, it would be really useful for me to be able to make Prepar3D render some simple markers in the view at known (or programmable) angular offsets. ie. the aircraft boresight (ie. zero azimuth and elevation) for example, or perhaps 20 degrees in azimuth to the left or right. However, I cannot see a way of doing this in Prepar3D. I had heard that it was possible to add HUD-style symbology to Prepar3D and I wondered whether that might be one approach to achieve this, but I can't even see how to do that.

Any ideas?

TIA,
Dave
