No, not really... in IL2 you have to enable an option called 3RENDERS which tells the graphic engine to render 3 *separate* views and "stitch" them together inside "wide view". There are three different POVs there heading in three different directions simultaneously.
You can try it without Matrox as well (in Excellent mode, not Perfect). You will see the difference.
This is absolutely not the same as simply forcing the wide wiew which in IL2 cropps the image (truncates upper and lower part) as compared to a 4:3-sized view!
Edit-
That's why I'm asking Oleg about support for three GPUs - to have those 3 views accelerated on non-Matrox hardware. |
I use the Matrox TripleHead2Go as well with the Use3Renders option in the conf.ini. It is great having a 3 FOV spread across your screens, it really provides greater emersion and peripheral vision.
My question is: Will BOB have similar support for the 3 Views option currently used in Il-2 for multi-monitor support?
