hey buddy, I actually do exactly what you are proposing to do; I have a 20" w/s centre monitor with a 17" on either side. I actually have my monitors wall mounted on double arm brackets, which mean they can be moved all over the place. To overcome the resolution problems I do the following: Most of ...

This may have been brought up before but I haven't seen it yet... I'm dual booting at the moment as I make the transition to vista, does anyone know if there will ever be a mode expander tool that works with it? I'll be gutted if matrox is cheeky and releases one ONLY for the spangly new digital ver...

you cant run a full screen app across 2 graphics cards. Plus my centre monitor + TH2G are on the faster card

digital TH looks sweet, but I can't afford to sacrifice two dvi slots on my cards, I've got it configured with ultramon so that a keystroke switches between triplehead and all 3 screens individually on dvi (across 2 graphics cards). When my screens are in analog I can change the 'phase' and various ...

tried it on 3840x1024 and 3840x768... it's strongly cropped! I also tried a two screen configuration, it's better... but I think I'll be playing this game minus TH2G just on the centre screen

next chance i'll have to do a screenshot will be wednesday... I'll put a few up if nobody else has done one by then, although It'll only be in tri screen - as awesome as the quad screen is, adding a silver screen to a complete black setup just makes my soul cry

i've tried it, works flawlessly! native support. All you need to do is change the menu to from a bottom bar to a sidebar, i think the shortcut is alt+up. It's fantastic if you use one video output on TH2G and your other dvi for another screen.. it's effectively quad screen gaming but you have 3 scre...

I was pleasantly surprised to see darwinia working perfectly aswell. Good news to those who do own darwinia - they are soon to release a patch of the order of 'expansion pack' which adds extra levels and a large graphical overhaul (Not that it wasn't already gorgeous) and there are hints of multipla...

Woo! I got a dremel yesterday... was getting bored of waiting for architecture students to smuggle me into the workshop so I thought I'd get on building a bezel for my drive bay mounted screen at home. I find it hard to believe how much the matrix orbital screens cost when for less you can get a dec...

I've just done a bit of an experiment myself... You spurred me into cannibalizing my 8" lcd that I no longer use and it's now on its way into being mounted into the front of my machine... was a hell of a lot easier than I expected! I'll post a few pics upon completion

as if EA gives a second shite about 'fair play', they know full well that widescreens will replace standard ratio and just can't be buggered to do anything about it! I don't really exxpect them to give support to TH2G though.. Oh and I was supposed to wait until exams were over, but then i discovere...

I'm fairly positive that no conventional lcd can physically have 'no' bezel, and that there needs to be things on the sides that are required. However it won't be too long before the OLED displays are on the commercial market, and they definitely don't need to have a bezel, so I think in the next fe...

yeah, and the FOV is just perfect... there's no stretching even on the very edge of the side screens, Only problem is the stretched ui at the bottom, the fact that the terrain is not drawn at the very edges of the screens (just shows the animated sea curiously enough!) - oh and I'm not allowed to pl...

holy pants that's incredible! I can kind of see how you've done it, it's simple but smart. My screens are wall mounted at the moment, they move independantly but I'd be up for doing something like this if you give us a little guide!

nice! Yesterday I made the leap and got me a TH2G, and despite having a 20@ 16:10 screen sandwiched by two 17" 4:3s, the mode expander tool made me think I could use the widescreen settings to keep the center screen at the right aspect ratio and squish the side screens horizontally, however whenever...

I know it's an old game, but with C&C3 around the corner I've gone all nostalgic (But not quite nostalgic enough to go dig tiberian dawn out). Anyway, it works fantastically with the TH2G once you've done the FOV edit posted in the widescreen fix forum - apart from one thing... at 3840x1024 with a m...
