Title: Dual Screens For FPS games
Post by: DuckRA2 on April 07, 2011, 06:03:30 PM
so i have two screens set up with my gtx 460 graphics card. If i set them to horizontal span mode, i can play call of duty 4 with both monitors, but the problem is the center of the screen where the gun's aimdownsites/scope in is right in the split of the monitors. That is not good at all. is there anyway i could play the game with the monitor on my right being the center view, and the secondary monitor on the left by an extended view to the left in game?

I could see it being used well for things like TF2- you'll always know where those bastard Spies are who keep stealing your briefcases   :P

That sounds epic and all; but FPS games do not support it.

Or in BC2, to see who's putting C4 on your M-Com station!

They might support the use of multiple monitors, but he was asking if you could set it up to extend your viewing area.

If I understood him, you normally see '''not this[this]not this''', and he asked if he could extend only the left side, giving his view a look of '''not this[this][not this]'''

While they support multi monitors, I don't recall them supporting peripheral vision.

Eureka! Idea for portal 3- dual screen mode, both screens used when no active portals and switches screens each time you go through a portal!
