S77th-RYKE

they all running fine at 75 mhz , but thanks I'm thinking I'll try it without pointing to a "monitor.lua" file weird...

of course...

I tried the damn borders again . failed I can get into the game and the borders look different but I lose the ability to click in the pit .. also my FOV looks wrong , squashed a bit , electric poles are too short . I changed ; 1-my softh.cfg to include borders 2-options.lua to my new aspect ratio and res 3840x1024 + borders 250x2 = 4340x1024 , aspect is now 4.2382 3-made a Softh_1_camera.lua and pointed options.lua at it 4-added the snapview setting (I'm now "zoomed out" on start) I wonder what I forgot ..

yeah CUDA enabled is supposed to greatly enhance performance , but I couldn't get it to work with softh (same missing cudart.dll file) and neither could a lot of people according to the softh forums... maybe they have come up with a new version I don't know.. my experience so far with LO-FC has been very low fps and a long long time before I could even look around at game load . that's one of the reason's why I'm really looking forward to FC2 , as I'm getting really good fps in BS . when you have a chance can you send me your LO-FC config in my pm ? I'd rather not post it in here as it may mess up people thinking it's a BS config . thanks

thanks , I'll test later this afternoon but so far I think my mistake has been not making a "1 monitor" lua like your fred3.lua I'll try to get it to work and will update my 1 st post with new info to make it easy for more people to enjoy 3 monitors for free !! go Softh !! so... how are you enjoying 5 feet wide of BS ? haha so far I played BS , Bioshock , Call of Duties (4-5-6), Nascar2003 , fallout 3 , Crysis . I'm waiting for FC2 to mess with lockon . Can't wait .

Softh can do that resolution without spending one dollar$ . I'm sure you already knew that but just informing the "public at large"

thanks for sharing , 5320 total res minus 3360 minus 280 border sizes , that would mean you are running a 1680x1050 center screen so all 3 screens are 1680x1050. when I set border sizes on mine I get a crash .. I never modified the snapview ... how did you come up with that number ? Snap[9][13]["viewAngle"] = 219.777544238285 thanks

cool .. glad it worked can you please post your configs in here ? I'd like to see those luas as I'm still having issues with border sizes . thanks

with the phantom monitor fix you had access to multiplayer menu , not sure if it still works since the patch , I'm on 3 monitors now ; here is the phantom thread http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=633892#post633892 and the triple monitors thread ; http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=39577

OK try this 1st ; make sure the resolution you are going for is supported by your monitors , have you tried setting ALL your monitors to the desired resolution before loading BS ? also if you went to 60 as refresh rate don't forget to add that line to the end of your softh.cfg ; if that don't do it then ... a game freeze or black screens .... hmmm I would try something different here; try secondaryFormat=RGB32 uploadMethod=D3D and secondaryFormat=RGB32 uploadMethod=blit and , secondaryFormat=RGB16 uploadMethod=D3D and secondaryFormat=RGB16 uploadMethod=blit as you can see , different combinations are possible .. depending on drivers maybe even RGB32CUDA and D3DCUDA could work ... but I doubt it... usually a black screen or a game freeze shows an incompatibility between the res you are going for and the res you told the game it should be going for... also , I don't know if you got softh to work with ANY other game but to work it CAN'T have any other thing trying to access direct3D , like a FPS counter on a G-15 keyboard screen for example . My experience here is that sometimes it does work sometimes it doesn't depending on the game ... I know if I go with XP64 my Comodo firewall makes trouble for example so .. you want as few things running in the background as you can , I know some people's PCs got 100 programs starting with windows... if you got 30 icons on the right side of your taskbar by the clock , chances are you WILL have issues with softh . also even after a fail softh writes a softh.log , you can find it at the same place you put your softh.cfg I'm no expert on logs but by testing and failing and reading the log you may see how far it got THAT time ... example ; keep trying , man I just spent 1 hour last night trying to make Call of duty modern warfare 2 work in triple screen , I finally got it ... but yeah took me 1 hour. it can be something very stupid .. like sometimes you absolutely have to start the game without softh first... go to the closest resolution (to what you will want with softh) and then reload the thing with softh .. in BS , the options.lua is key ... if you put in a different res , you have to fix the aspect ratio too , failure to do that will get you a freeze or black screen . good luck

======================================================= personnally I never go into the BS options graphic section to adjust resolution it's all done in the options.lua OK let's see ... you got a few things wrong in there ... 1st the softh.cfg ; your monitors IDs are --4--1--3-- so it should be if it can work like that , well all good , if not you have to tell windows to change their ID numbers to --3--1--2-- , or --2--1--3-- for example . your resolution from post #39 ; your resolution from your softh.cfg says ; your resolution from your options.lua says ["resolution"] = "1920x1200", so yeah , 3 different resolutions here my friend , no wonder it ain't working. try these instead OK ; it's 1280x1024x75 , I hope that's what you want ; the bottom of the softh.cfg MUST have the resolution for each single monitor you are going to use listed (I think , what do I know ;) lol) :D softh.cfg; then the graphics part of your options.lua should be ; again at 1280x1024x75; try that and good luck , hope it works .

hi Alex GTR2 seems to work according to the softh forums here; http://www.kegetys.net/forum/index.php?board=1.0 and someone got FSX to work here ;http://www.kegetys.net/forum/index.php?topic=1559.0 here in your cfg are typos , should be ; about the monitor blinking , man I've never had that but maybe try a different refresh rate first on that monitor, then try a different resolution . if it's consistent it should be easy to fix . good luck

hey bud , would help to see your actual cfg file and options.lua pasted here but without it I can only guess .. have you tried something different here ; since on yours the primary is 2 you should go for this deviceIDLeft=1 deviceIDright=3 or deviceIDLeft=3 deviceIDright=1 if that don't do it try the other choices in these ; uploadMethod=D3D secondaryFormat=RGB32

it's all in there bud ; post in there if you need further help . http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=39577

AC/DC is a jpeg viewer . it can expand across 3 monitors

thanks for posting I could have sworn from your video that you had set border sizes.. you know.. to compensate for distance between monitors..

thanks for posting , it seems that you succeeded in setting correct borders .. can you please post your set up ? softh.cfg , options.lua , whatevermonitor.lua and what ever else you modified .. thanks

try ac/dc and grab and stretch I'm stretching across 3 screens

how do you manage your borders with softh ? your softh config and graphics.lua would be apreciated thanks

TH2G is not necessary , working fine with Softh as a software solution. See here ; http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=39577

glad it worked !! Enjoy

yep good work please share it :)

you must modify options.lua for it to work , like in all multi monitor set up in BS. I suggest you read again my 1st post , it's explained in details . you do NOT need to modify the graphics options from the game menu. good luck and keep us posted on your progress .

that is nice... thanks for posting .. or do it for free with Softh ; http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=39577
