I'm wondering if anyone knows if you run MxO on two screens, say the map and options on one and the game on another. I know it's unlikely but a I friend wants to know.

Dunno bout that, but what about IE/FF open on one with a fan site map open, and MxO on the other?

No the game does not support dual monitor play, So the above suggestion would be the best way to go about it, And as a side note you want to run the game in windowed mode(no anti aliasing) when using two or monitors if not it will pop out of game when you try to do something in windows

I had duel monitors for a while. I found almost no games support running across duels. Thats why my new system is going to have a 21" widescreen (price of 2 17"s).

I agree with this fellow here.

I had two 19' Dell LCD's and found that not one single game supported this natively.  Some games will have hacks or something that will allow the game to work with two screens, but they are few and far between.


 


Instead when I got my new computer I got a 20.1" widescreen, way better then two screens. And it is supported by most modern games. Including MxO....

MxO at 1680x1050 is awesome.

F--- that! BFG Tech's NVidia GeForce FX 5500 has an S-Video output on it. Just take that old TV laying around and prop it up next to your PC.


LOL I'm so ghetto.
