Widescreen Users...

I just received a new widescreen monitor and the first thing I noticed is the zoom and distance view changed. The perspective looked good but I had to zoom back to 50% on almost all views to the visuals the same as my regular monitor.

I asked one of the experts who was a member here about it. He said to change the following under the [DISPLAY] heading:

WideViewAspect=False

to

WideViewAspect=True

He said FSX does not sense a widescreen monitor and do it automatically. That edit only works for widescreen monitors.

It made a big difference!

Setting the zoom to 80% on all views seems to be the best and with the widescreen support the distance has become even more defined.

Thanks for the post! I'm going to test it right this moment.

EDIT: Thanks! The VC and all other views look so much better!
