I am about to migrate from XP10 to XP11. I have a 4 computers/4 screens configuration. 1 computer as master with instruments screen, 1 computer with moving map screen and 2 computers serving one large front screen each.

cars, railways and AI trafic in airports does not cross properly the border between the 2 front screens. This also occurs for clouds.

I have followed Laminar advice to use one computer per screen but I am not sure that this behaviour will corrected.

In X11, there is much more ground trafic and I do not want to stay in this situation.

Can I expect a better  sync between the 2 computers/screens in XP11 than in XP10, or should I modify my configuration and connect my 2 front screens to the same computer? In this case I need extra graphic power. Will XP11 support 2 graphic cards on the bus of the same machine using Windows large desktop? Each of the 2 GPU would be identical and connected each to one screen.

Regards

JPP

There is an open bug filed about the ground traffic and vehicles not matching between networked computers. It still exists in X-Plane 11 though.

Running multiple monitors from one computer will avoid this issue, but as you know, require more graphics power. X-Plane does not support more than one graphics card in a single computer (and probably never will). One new feature that might help this situation is that you can now pop out the map/GPS/etc as a separate window and move it without needing another computer to put it on (just another monitor).
