3 displays ?

Therone · #1 11-08-2012, 12:07 AM

I have been trying to get 1946 to start on 3 displays for a couple days now. I have read several theads on the subject and have tried every thing I've read.

[il2]
title=Il2-Sturmovik Forgotten Battles
hotkeys=HotKey game

[window]
width=1920
height=1080
ColourBits=32
DepthBits=24
StencilBits=8
ChangeScreenRes=1
FullScreen=1
DrawIfNotFocused=0
EnableResize=0
EnableClose=0
SaveAspect=0
Use3Renders=0

GTX680 runs all my other games well on 3 displays well .......
I am missing something.
Any ideas.

Take your total width of all 3 screens and divide by 4 for your height and your main screen needs to be the one on the left not center

All 3 of my screens are 1920x1080 native resolution but I dont use those resolutions. I have changed my 2 outer screens to 1152x864 and my center screen to 1440x900 when you add up 1152+1152+1440=3744. Add up your width dimensions first and the divide it by 4 (example 3744 divided 4 =936) 936 will now be my height even tho it is different than my screen resolutions height. The total width of all 3 screens must be added together first and then figure your height after. If your using 3 screens at 1920x1080 you would have 1920x3=5760 divded by 4 = 1440. Your config.ini would now look like this:
[window]
width=5760
height=1440
ColourBits=32
DepthBits=24
StencilBits=8
ChangeScreenRes=0
FullScreen=1
DrawIfNotFocused=0
EnableResize=0
EnableClose=1
SaveAspect=1
Use3Renders=1

The problem with this is your height resolution on your screen is 1080 and now you have lost a good portion of your view. This is the only way I have gotten this to work.

DO NOT MULTIPLY YOUR HEIGHT BY 4 TO GET YOUR WIDTH , DIVIDE YOUR TOTAL WIDTH MEANING ALL 3 SCREENS ADDED TOGETHER, THEN DIVIDE THAT NUMBER BY 4 AND THAT NUMBER WILL NOW BE YOUR HEIGHT AND iM PREETY SURE IT WILL NOT BE 1080

I'm still stumped. Res is 5760x1080.
The 3 monitors are set as 1 display video surround.

Idk, I tried some lower resolutions and it filled 2 1/2 screens

Hello
I have three monitors of the same size: 32" = 5760x1080

Edit your conf.ini:
[window]
width=5760
height=1080
.
.
.
[DeviceLink]
port=1711

And then get this program

Install it and run it
The rest is up to you.

Have a nice landing!
