Unfortunately the FPS takes a pretty big hit, but it is real cool. Time for a CPU upgrade.

i read in another forum that mfd-export is done by capturing the screen-segments in a specific falconAF-view and copy these bitmaps to another monitor and that this view in falcon has to be active for ExportView to work correctly. Is this right? Does this only affect the fps for the mfds or for the complete application?

S~! Gentlemen

Thats a really cool Software that you can use for Falcon !

Too bad they dont offer the MFD export for Lock On Flaming Cliffs....
waiting for that day x

Definatly need this as an A-10 Pilot to use my Mavericks more efficient.

Quick question.... does F4AF and TB work in Local mode? Or only Client/Server?

yeap the right view needs to be up, and it does hit fps of the whole app. My rig hasn't been upgraded, 9800Xt with a 2.4G CPU.

I believe you can try before buying with them. They've also announced an physical HUD which has my attention.

What exactly does this mean? do they sell the displays in bundle with the application? Will it have functional OSBs?

Will there be a less cpu-time consuming solution in the future?

Works like a dream for me in local. Thanks again, zorlac, this has added so much to my simming!
