Eve Online - Singularity Test server - Dual monitor support

[SlicerJen]

adjustable FOV is the key to having 180 or even 360 look advantage. Else the same image on one screen is just stretched over 2 screens. On a sidenote, we used to adjust fov on QuakeII so we could get a ghetto sniper scope effect with the rail gun. Ah, good ol times...

would be nice if they supported you having 2 different size monitors. I have a 28 inch main and 19 inch on the left.  I wish when I dragged the window over it would auto adjust to the size of my 19 not keep the game the size of my 28...other game do it..why can't eve. Oh wait....its ccp.

@TheJedimaster6788

Adjust resolution ..set on smaler monitor smaler resolution that fits size,experiment ..i have 24 inch and 19 inch monitor and i set them perfectly to fit size and it works on any game that can be run in window mode

@tagurit2 I dont know any game that can do it that way. The only thing games like CounterStrike do is change the Field of View. With one Monitor you only see a small area in front of you, and with 3 Monitors you can see a lot more things on the left and right side. Imagine a counterstrike map where with 1 monitor you can see the end of a tunnel, and with three monitors you can also see the door on your left with an enemy shooting at you. But looking backwards won't work.

@tagurit2 With 3 monitors and geforce-4xx (in SLI) or ati 5xxx (single or crossfire) yes, if the game supports custom non-standard resolutions. Two monitors is a problem because the crosshair would be in the middle, except the game has a special option to correct it (which they normally do NOT have). three monitors would be no problem.

... I have been using 2 screens in Eve for years - only problem was that one half of the HUD was on the left screen, the other half on the right screen. Has been possible with NVidia cards on WinXP for years (used a GF4ti4200). Now i am using an Eyefinity-Setup with 3 screens, works fine. F-keys, Capacitor and Targets on main screen, everything else on the other screens. Just buy an ATI card 5xxx (i recommend a 5850 or higher) - that's all.

EVE would be the best game to have multi monitors setup

[flagbearer223]

Do you know if it works on screens that are different sizes?

[explodyhead]

@flagbearer223

It might, but it would be wonky.

[Asayanami]

@flagbearer223 if they can run at the same resolution then yes

my moniotrs are 1 inch different in size
