The "phantom monitor" is back with BS2?

I tried to go multiscreen on my 2 computers with bs2 installed (yes, got 2 licences). Copied my bs1 multiscreen .lua profile, added the 'special bs2 line' at the end of the file using npp, then entered the screen width and height in the options.lua (still with npp). Also disabled full screen option.

On both computers, my sim appeared all shifted to the right (by about 400 pixels). Same on both computers. Reminded me of BS1.00 which required on my computers to run the "phantom monitor fix.exe in order to get a centered image on multi screen. Is the old bug back?

Can anyone help? Thanks.

Hi.

If your configuration is Mon.A>> Mon.B (Main and secondary right) do the calculations as if your settings were: Mon.Bx>> Mon.A>> MonBy. (y = x)

Obviously not draw anything in Mon.Bx.

In the A-10 beta was so.

Greetings.

Thanks P1KW.

Actually, I dug out from an old DVD the small phantomMonitorFix.exe utility that came out for BS1 v1.00 (since I had the very same issue in multiscreen when BS1 came out until 1.02) and tried it with BS2 and....miracle, it worked! All the images are now properly aligned with the screens.

Guess some non-regression tests were not properly performed. :(

is this specific to side by side setup? Mine is setup one above the other and had no problems, was dead easy.

Well I still can't figure out why it is happening with some configuration, and not with others. Both my configurations were screwed up, and they were indeed both side by side multi screen confs.
