Hi, I am trying to get this to work on my triple screen set up but still can't. I have tried everything I can think of but to no avail. I have changed the config files to various different resolutions but still only runs on 2 monitors, the middle and right ones. Do you have any suggestions?

P.s I am using Matrox's TH2Go @ 3840 X 1024 res, Thanks

@MrTeebone01 Ive not had this running on my 3 screens for a long time (my desktop pc is knackered) the only thing i remember was having to choose a really low resolution to get it working (but it still looked ok) - also have you used the triple head software to automatically adjust these older games?

Hey, How do I ' connect ' the three screens like that to one game? 'windowizing' the game and put it to the far left corner and drag it across to the last screens far top right?..

Thanks for an answer....

Nice setup, Im playing with a Cyborg X joystick and 3 28" screens

@HateIsAFeeling i recommend a digital (depending on monitor connections) triplehead2go box from matrox that will amend and handle the crazy resolutions that the games need to be to run on 3 mons,,, alot of new games have the correct resolutions now as standard so will run ok,,, or if not a triplehead2go box you may want to start buying into the new eyefinity graphics cards but they are sooo expensive for anything decent

nice set up mate how much did that set you back the three motors??

[jonnythecroww]

@AngelofDeath595 Them old ones prob worth 30quid each,, got some new ones now £125 each so not to expensive,, check my dragon age vid for the specs =)

that's nice but you totally suck at aiming

Very nice. I've cut my teeth on IL2 '46 for about 4 years or so on my low budget eMachines & 20 in. Acer screen, using a reliable Logitech Wingman stick.. I figure when the new Cliffs of Dover series get going with new add ons, (just like IL2), a 3 screen like this will be a poor mans cheap flight simulator. I look forward to it. I figure 3 more years or so & the hardware to make this happen will be common place & cheap enough.

@HateIsAFeeling depending on resolution you need an amount of GB on the video card for it to run smothly
