| I have a friend who'd like a screen saver to run on both monitors on his system. There are 3 display drivers on this system as follows: Primary Display Driver NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64 I've tried to create processes for each driver using ExecFile but he said it only worked on one monitor. Has anyone done this sort of thing before? Thanks. |

| Make your res 1280x640 or 1600x600 ,ie double the width. This should work. |
| ||
| Let us know if this works eMan. I'd like to try something like this too. |
| ||
| Thanks, I'll give it a try and let you know how it goes. |

| I tried doubling the width but it didn't work. I tried Graphics3D(1600, 600). Any ideas on why it doesn't work? |

| >> I'd like to try something like this too. Try what? Get Blitz3d to work over multiple monitors? I've did it at my house and it works fine here...as displayed in my now dead topic : http://www.blitzbasic.com/bbs/posts.php?topic=24656 And eMan, is the Camera's Viewport's X's width set to 1600 as well? |

| Genexi2, the test program I wrote couldn't set the graphics mode so I didn't get to the viewport stage. Also the double the width method only works on nvidia cards with nview installed (it doesn't work with ATI) (I got this from http://www.blitzbasic.com/bbs/posts.php?topic=23548). Is there a away to use dual monitors that will works regardless of the graphics card used? |
