Hello.
I have had my Fs9 and Th2GO setup with monitors for well over 5 years. Last week (it was following a visit to XOrionFE's place to check out his sim!!), i ended up ordering Short Throw projectors.
They came in day before yesterday and since then i have spent both days, evening and much of the night trying to set them up.
The projector placement was fine because i had planned for it and i had ordered them after a lot of research and drawings.
I am able to get my 180 degree visuals. However, i am struggling with some horizontal keystone on the right and left projector which i guess i can live with because the distortion is well below the view line.
The trouble is the image warping via Nthusim is not doing what i am expecting it to do. When i run it, it does tear the image into multiple vertical slices and warps them individually. However they are no more seamless and it looks really bad.
Do i need to change something else in FS and/or FS config files to get this to work?
And lastly, I am assuming that Nthusim does not do anything the windows desktop because teh desktop is not warped and looks bent when i start up the PC and run Nthusim.
Any help will be appreciated.

Just to say welcome here, cant help with your question but some will do...hey Scott! :laugh:
It doesnt warp the desktop....can't help on the rest
Thanks guys.
I follow this site quite a bit. 8 years spent building my simulator... its heartening to see this many people involved in the hobby. One wonders how we used to operate a decade ago!

It would be very useful if you posted a picture that shows what you are talking about. Actually, 2 pictures would be better, one that shows the projector images without Nthusim and one that shows the Nthusim grid. Nthusim only warps the FS9 image and not the desktop as mentioned earlier.
