ANyone playing Black shark using win7/vista in multimonitor NOT in windowed mode?


Recommended Posts

Posted

i have been out of the black shark loop since august.

 

the last big thing about multi monitor that came up was the release of the patch 1.01 ,

which allowed Win7 and vista to run multi monitor thing WITHOUT having to run phantom monitor fix...

 

but if i recalled, vista and windows 7 still doesnt allow proper spanning of the desktop went using multimonitor, so vista and win7 users are left to run the game in windowed mode...

 

IS THIS STILL True?

 

because i went out and got an HD5770 to mess around with eye-finity to deal with this spanning issue..

after a day of messing around, i was able to achieve a whole desktop in 2 monitors (did not have a displayport monitor to run a 3rd) with out having any extended desktops!

 

it took me a day because spanning didnt work with the Windows 7 RC evaluation version, but after installing a retail version, i was able to span the desktop over 2 monitors successfully.

 

i will now test with LO:FC, if i can run this in full screen...

 

COMMENTS?

once again i ask,

is there any way to run full screen blackshark/lo:fc in full screen over a mulimonitor setup in win7/vista?

(PLEASE dont tell me TH2G, TH2G works fine, i know this.. im going through all this, because i want a vertically spanned desktop, and not a horizontally spanned desktop which TH2G allows..)

wow.. you have a monster rig..

 

i believe you can run it in full screen only if you can get windows to run on one desktop, and NONE of this extended desktop stuff...

 

how are you hooking up 5 monitors if your running crossfire?

 

i am about to test lock on full screen over dual monitor @ 3360x1050

 

then im going to see if th2g works...

Well, to be accurate, I am running 3 screens with TH2G (so that's 1 screen from Windows point of view) then 1 screen on secondary output and a third one on secondary graphic card. Crossfire disabled when running all the screens.
