@nuggets thanks for the reply! So reinstalling the game rather than the client could solve the issue?

thanks y'all. I changed the lobby settings from windowed to full screen and it's now working perfectly fine. I actually dont know if this fixed it but the tv is now megaminimap so thats cool

@jip I can't seem to find this preferences file is it in faf client folder?

@arma473 OK, this is basically what I did, so it is possible then I guess. You're not using a mod?

My screens are a monitor (1920x1080) and a TV (1366x768) and i got the same figures in the game menu. Not sure what could be wrong

@jip Thanks. So there is no dual screen support for FAF at all??

I just changed the setting to use two screens in the SC menu and now both windows show nothing but a light grey colour, obviously the settings are wrong but has anyone foudn this issue and know how to set up dual monitors properly? ty
