See differences between 16:9 and 21:9 (Ultrawide) display on Prepar3D. Featured 29Palms Twentynine, Orbx Sedona and Orbx Monterey. Make your own point of view ;-)

Bonjour Vincent

 

A telling and useful comparison as the question of knowing whether a higher res brings more real estate to the screen is a recurring one on FS forums.

 

Not surprised by the extension of the FoV which is to be expected but by the smoothness of the simulation flow at 3440. Your machine is a good one but not the strongest that the market can offer now.  I have my doubts that my 780ti could drive a 3440*1440 res. without stutter with my parameter settings. My first experience with DSR was not conclusive, not to say not encouraging. I may wait the Nvidia next gen.  to go 4k. Jury is still out.

 

Also, I never fly like that  as I don't have external physical gauges. Does having the VC view strain more the fluidity or help ?

 

BTW is it Shadoplay or Fraps ?

Magnificent vid! Excellent taken in panoramic views, very nice indeed!

So do I. It was only for the record puprose. I only fly in VC mode. My guess is that displaing gauges and virtual cockpit demand more than expanded  the field of view.

nVidia Shadowplay.

OK, thanks Vincent. How does it look like in a downwind and base legs ? Do the 880 more lateral pixels help the situational awareness (less pronounced sideways glances) ? 

[vbazillio]

Actually to adress the situationnal awareness, I'm using a TrackIR. No other best solution if you want to manage correctly circuits.

 

Extending the view with an ultrawide screen doesn't bring enough range. If you're not considering TrackIR, you should add two Ultrawide monitor at the left and right side ;-)

Too bad that monitor wasn't around a couple years ago when I bought my 27...

Wow!  I'm also ready to jump to a "34 LED soon!  This just validates it for me!!  Thank you for this video!!!

Very nice demo. ... even us poor people appreciate that.  And I'm saving my pennies.
