I don´t want to link 2 views together as 1 big view. I want to have 2 separate views that can be moved independantly (with 2 different hat switches, 2 TrackIRs or 2 mice etc)

Sorry I posted the same message twice as I thought it didn´t go through the first time. It didn´t show up for at least 10 mins even though I had refreshed many times. If its possible to delete it, you may do that. There are some programs that can make two mouse pointers appear. I forgot the name of the first program I saw that could do that. But I just found another one pretty easily just now. It supports multiple keyboards too. Its called Pluarinput ...www.pluralinput.com I remember in the past, I tried using program like this with FS and it worked just fine. One pilot could be setting the MCP while the other pilot was working on configuring the overhead panel etc. I don´t know if the focus is switched fast between the two mice pointers, but I can tell you it works just fine with FS at least. I´ve tried using two cockpit views in FS at the same time. It works without significant framerate drop (if you have a "good" computer). The only problem is getting two "screens" to move/pan at the same time. For now I only want a basic setup like this - 2 Monitors with captains and copilots side views that can be panned/moved with mice, hat switches or TrackIR etc. - 2 Yokes - 2 Rudder pedals - 1 Throttle and maybe other small items on pedestal (basic radios etc or even hardware FMC/CDU) I´m not sure if this is possible. But if you can think of any solution then by all means, let me know :-) Gunni

Hi I´ve got a question. It seems nobody has thought about this or is interested as I can´t find a single topic about this anywhere ... so here goes ... I want to make a dual pilot home cockpit..so to say. Not a complicated one, just basic/inexpensive setup for two pilots as I want to be able to practice MCC with a friend. I can setup two yokes/pedals etc ...two monitors (captain and first officers panels) ...even two mice pointers working on same computer (I found a program to do that). My only problem is that I can only pan one VC (Virtual cockpit) view within FSX at a time !. Only one window can be active at a time it seems. Do you have any solution to make it possible to move/pan within two VC views individually at the same time in FSX ? I want to avoid using many monitors to do this if possible (only keep 2 monitors, captains and first officers monitors to begin with). I hope I made myself clear enough :-) If you have any idea how to make a 2 pilot setup work. Let me know. Any suggestion appreciated. Gunni P.s I´m not interested in FS2CREW, I want to have a real person flying with me (To simulate PF/PM interactions). I´ve also tried Leonardo MD80/82 but I´m not too happy with it (it doesn´t sync correctly and lots of problems come up when trying to make a full flight in it)
