Bestor -> Cant run game anymore /sobs (4/12/2010 9:48:39 PM)

Hi I need help when I first got Dw it worked fine for me, but the other day i had a major windows crash which resulted in a full re install. now before the crash i could run Dw at 5040 by 1050 resoulution over 3 screens,

however since the reinstall and re configuration of my triple head, distant worlds will only launch on the left screen, and I get no menus so I cant launch a game, I just the background galaxy image and music, I have un installed and re installed twice with no luck. can anyone help.

is there any chance that the devs will include a resolution selector and windowed mode anytime soon to avoid this type of think happening ?

Sorry wich I could help you. I didn't even know you can have different screens for one computer. Good luck. Is it really that bad playing on one screen?

i wasnt even aware this game was suitable to be dual/triple screened....i actually just tried dual, it looks like **** so il stick with 1680x1050 tyvm

but imo this has more to do with the config of your screens and drivers then the game, that prolly runs just fine but the rest screws it up

I wish I had 3 screens it wouldn't work with!!!![X(]

Well if it worked on 1 screen i would be happy tbh, but it wont even run on one screen.

Are your graphic drivers and settings different now than they were before your crash? A single setting could in theory be the difference here. I have no personal experience with three monitor setups (I use two without an issue, but haven't tried three), so I can be of limited assistance in determining what the proper settings for your system should be.

Still, please post a DxDiag for us and if possible post a screenshot of your driver settings.

Also, is this with 1.0.3? Did you try any of the previous versions to see if this is version-specific?



Bestor -> RE: Cant run game anymore /sobs (4/14/2010 6:39:38 PM)

Now you mention it it was an older vid driver i was running last time, and also i was on v 1.0.2 ill try the older driver and older version when i get home and let you know it works, also ill attach a dx diag aswell
