I found this thread about Test Drive Unlimited:
http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/

Does that mean it supports multi display out of the box without any third party configs? I'm interested in dual widescreen.

Oops wrong link:

that's the thread I was talking about


TH is some kind of software right?
I guess it's enough to use the "horizonal span" setting in geforce drivers if I only want 2 monitors?

Thx

TH is the Matrox TripleHead2Go. It is hardware that makes Windows think that three monitors are really one. See the links to the left. Spanning the desktop in MS Windows won't work, as Windows doesn't accelerate 3D on the 2nd monitor.

im running test drive unlimited with a Triple Head 2 Go without any problems at all...

the game accepts all the resolutions your monitor can put out, so you don't need to hack or command-line anything... just choose your resolution in the display options menu

haven't tested it with dual monitors... but i think that if it can do 3, it'll probably work with 2 as well
