No right-side virtual mirror

OK, this is odd. I just got a new monitor, set the game up for the new resolution, but now I get no right-side virtual mirror. On ETS2 it's fine, I can get the left, right, both or none as usual. However, in ATS it only displays the left virtual mirror.

Anybody else seen this behavior before or have an idea how to fix it?

do you mean the HUD mirror appears on the right, but displays the lefthand reflection? ie. reversed?
Or do you mean the HUD mirror object isn't visible?

Is your resolution in game the same as your monitor?
Did you try togging the on screen mirrors?

Can't imagine how this might be happening, assuming the entire rendered image is actually being displayed.

Does the problem persist into a new, clean (*modless*) profile? (You should always be double-checking problems against a newly created, fresh, modless profile).

Ah, I sussed it. Since the last time I actually played, I had installed the Freightliner Coronado V1.2 add-on truck that was posted to the SCS forums. Even though I'm not driving it, apparently having it installed causes you not to have a right-side virtual mirror in any truck.

Uninstalled and all is well. I'll have to check the forums again sometime and see if that bug was fixed.

:) Yeah, I suspected a mod was causing the problem. 90% of problems are due to mods (yes I just pulled that figure out of my *rse :) ).
