Using four monitors on my PC where thre are used for 3D cockpit view.

Each monitor shows 60 degr. -> so I can see 180 degr. in the three monitors.

But there is a  "dangerous bug" ,when using xpilot for more then one monitor, especially when taxing..

OTHER TRAFFIC IS NOT SHOWN in right or left monitor/window. Other traffic is only visible in the main monitor window. Left and right window does not show any traffic at all...

It would be grate if this could be fixed in further versions

Are all four monitors connected to the same computer? Or do you have a network of computers to drive your simulator visual screens?

I have recognize that some planes are view in all right/left monitor - but then without the call sign who only is visible in the main center window. I beleive that those who is visible using X-plane. NXT time i Will ask...

Is there any action to fix this subject?
It seams that call sign is not viewed on my other monitor then "main"-monitor in 3D view, for all connected to VATSIM , whatever SIM they use.

So which is it on your left/right monitors?

  1. you can see all the planes but not the callsigns
  2. you can see some of the planes but not the callsigns
  3. you can not see any of the planes

Sorry that have been unclear.

After the latest update of xPilot - nr 1 is valid.

I can see every plane in all three monitors - but not the callsigns - who only is shown in the middle main monitor. (Left and right monitors not showing callsigns).

Labels not drawing on secondary monitors is an X-Plane limitation. It’s being tracked here: https://github.com/TwinFan/XPMP2/issues/17
