Jericho24. Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 I have my desktop set at 5120x1200 across 3 screens but cannot get it as an option in continuums menu, it only displays default resolutions. has anyone ever got continuum working on multiple monitors, or have any idea how to do it?
PoLiX Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 Will other full screen games do this for you? Typically most display drivers that allow this, you have to set 1 monitor as the default for full screen applications. If no other game can do this, then that is your issue.
Jericho24. Posted May 21, 2009 Author Report Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) one game, cant remember what it was called but a pretty recent racing game supported it, that worked great but tired of the game real quick. Though I am not really interested in full-screen, if i got it working id most likely have it windowed anyway, other windows I can span the 3 monitors with just fine. just have to get continuum to give the option to run at 5120x1200 windowed somehow. any ideas? edit: game was Burnout Paradise Edited May 21, 2009 by Jericho24.
PoLiX Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 Could try "advanced options > show default resolutions" but don't think it is one, since it is a super wide screen resolution. Can also check in your driver options under full screen applications, and set it in there. Just have it override. mm... not many other ideas.
Jericho24. Posted May 21, 2009 Author Report Posted May 21, 2009 right, doesnt show with show default res's ticked, and not sure what you mean by fullscreen apps, cant find anything like that. (nvidia)
PoLiX Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 yeah, my ATI had it, but my nvidia doesn't have it either. Could set default resolution for full screen apps, was nice for forcing continuum to display how I wanted it to. Mmm.. I personally am outta ideas, sorry dude.
Jericho24. Posted May 21, 2009 Author Report Posted May 21, 2009 no worries, thanks anyway. anyone else got any ideas? hmf
»Lynx Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 I know it can be done easily in Linux by changing the xorg.conf file in /etc/X11, so maybe look for something similiar to the xorg.conf file? Although, I kinda doubt this will be available in Windows. -L
Samapico Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 You're gonna see the entire map at once with that resolution
Emit Posted May 22, 2009 Report Posted May 22, 2009 Continuums game max reso doesn't exceed 2560x1680 or something forgot what the biggest i had it before i couldn't go any bigger :/
L.C. Posted May 22, 2009 Report Posted May 22, 2009 (edited) I thought 2048x1536 or something was the maximum? EDIT :: Continuum needs a resolution limit upgrade. Pretty soon we'll have players that see a quarter of the entire freaking map (now that would be a scary thing and would also be very interest - like what would happen if you went to T20 with such a huge resolution? ).

This feature already exists TW has a resolution limit, and has for many years I'm not sure it exists in pub still, but in league games you are limited to 1280x1024 max.

»Lynx Posted May 23, 2009 Report Posted May 23, 2009 Yeah, I used to always use a 1920xsomething and have to restrict to play in TW. -L
true_vision Posted May 24, 2009 Report Posted May 24, 2009 And continuum is dieing too , I mean all zone map getting smaller than smaller , so yeah with 5000 X 1240 Rez , You would actually see everyone everywhere and thor the fucker ? Still , I must agree with a MAXIMUM of a resolution , or this is a kind of cheat for others.
Samapico Posted May 24, 2009 Report Posted May 24, 2009 Zone owners CAN specify a maximum resolution at the moment... It's not an issue
FranKllr Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 Continuum works great in 2560x2048I am not able to span across multiple screen...http://frankllr.comuv.com/TrenchWars/200903171947_TW_2560_2048.png
