Dual monitors?

Post by sparky2002b »

Is it possible to play TASpring over dual monitors?
If so, how?

Thanks!

Edit: Nevermind. Just updated and saw the new option. Sorry. I'm stupid.

you need to extend your desktop, so its basicly one big monitor.

I only got it to work with nvidia, not ati.

First you set up your settings so that your windows desktop is very wide and occupies both monitors. When you have that, and assuming a resolution of 1024x768 on each monitor, you set spring up for resolution 2048x768 and turn on the dual monitor option. I got it to work in fullscreen.
