Display shifted on menu screen
-
looks like the window is off a little try the below
open up your launcher choose cockpit display extraction/click on main and see what you have in the left and top boxes it should be 0 / 0 -
Hello Ninja, I do have 0 / 0.
Here’s that screen:
-
try deleting the dx9display.dsp found in /User/Config before starting up again then start BMS see if that helped
also when you goto 3d is it all ok there or still right shifted ?
-
Deleted the file with no change. When I go 3D all is okay, so I might just have to live with a small windowed UI when not flying, though I’d prefer not to!
It looks to me like it’s not setting the resolution properly. Is there a config file option I can check or tweak?
-
no apart from the cockpit display extraction that you tried already strange thing is the top right / left is hardcoded unless changed in the cockpit display extraction section
a couple of more questions you say your main screen do you have multiple displays ?
if so is your main screen set as #1 and how do you use the other screens ie expand or duplicate your main screen to the other’s -
When I said main screen, I meant the 2D UI, basically all the screens before you actually get into the plane to fly. I’ve got the option in the config set to true that is supposed to make this UI center if you have 3 screens, otherwise it’s stuck in the top left, but this is while running it in windowed mode (with the -window option in the shortcut)
-
hold on a sec getting confussed
ok reset
set g_bCenterUI 1
to 0
and remove the -window form your desktop shortcutdoes the full screen window now locate itself to the top left ? which it should as its hardcoded to do so
and confirm you don’t have any other monitors attached to your pc
oh and try setting your bms/resolution to your monitors resolution or lower for testing
-
Sorry, I know I just kinda added that bit in there. If I reset that line, and remove the -window, then I end up with what it’s in the third post. It’s full screen, but shifted over, and the resolution looks like its set too low.
I do’t have any other monitors, just the one.
When I try changing the resolution in the settings, and I press apply, nothing happens. It just doesn’t respond.

Changing resolution in BMS Graphics Settings will only affect the in-game resolution, not your UI resolution.
Can you share your PC Display Settings (Control Panel>Display>Change Display Settings)?
And your Graphics Properties (right click on Desktop)?
What Graphics card are you using?
-
not your UI resolution
Indeed as its hard coded at 1024x768
strange its not seeing the top left /right as 0/0 in Full Screen but does in window mode though

Could it be the rescale function of your monitor which is not properly set? Try those buttons at the bottom right corner and see if you adjust some settings in that menu.
