I have just discovered FlightGear and am eager to try it. I have downloaded version v 1.9.1 onto a Vista Home Premium OS PC. I am using a GeForce 9600GT dual DVI graphics card which confusingly has 2 output ports.One of the ports is connected to a TripleHead2Go monitor multiplier which works fine with both FSX and X-Plane 9. (Sorry, I promise not to use strong langage like that in future.)
Once started I have selected the Cessna 172 at Half Moon Bay (I used to fly Flight Unlimited as well). The trouble is the set up screen to select screen resoulution etc is perfectly readable but when I select any of the resolutions offered (800x600 through to 1280 x 1024) all I see is the centre of the instrument panel. It doesn't matter which resolution I use the image on the 3 screens is identical (i.e the centre of the panel in identical detail). I tried de-selecting the Full Screen option and saw the complete panel and a little of the airfield on the left hand monitor but the central and right monitors were blank. Finally, is there a way to configure my joystick in FG? I am using a Saitek X52 and although the throttle was completely closed the Cessna was crashing all around the airfield at about 40-50 kts. I would appreciate any help you can offer, Thank you
