TripleHead2Go Updates for NVIDIA Cards

A number of people have posted updated to improved TripleHead2Go support in the NVIDIA 191 series drivers. Success isn't guaranteed, but people are reporting 5040x1050 support (last seen in 182.50 drivers) and DX10 support (not widely seen yet). YMMV, but it's worth checking out.

Batman: Arkham Asylum Detailed Report

I put together a Detailed Report on the new Batman demo. It is Hor+ with solid support for TH and WTH. There is an issue in Surround where the "cinematic" action sequences are zoomed in too far, making them Vert-. Paddy found a work-around, that can hopefully be added into the final product before shipping.

Unique Dual Widescreen Monitor from EVGA

EVGA has released an interesting dual widescreen monitor called the InterView. It is dual 17" widescreens at 1440x900 each. The unique feature is that both displays rotate front-to-back, so that people on opposite sides of a desk can view the same image (with the displays set to mirror mode).

This doesn't have many applications for gaming, due to the low resolution and lack of support for "dual displays" in games. But, it does offer unique productivity opportunities.

Tell Tale Games Custom Resolution Tool Updated

New forum member Derrick has updated his TTG Custom Resolution Tool. It now supports 640x480 on the low end, and up to 4095x4095 on the high end. The tool has also been tested with the new TTG Monkey Island title. You can hit the Wiki Page for more info, and to download the tool. You can also hit this discussion thread to show your thanks and post any feedback. Thanks to Derrick from all of us at the WSGF.

Lobbying Central

I created a new area in the Surround Forums called Lobbying Central. Previously the WSGF has been successful in lobbying developers to add Surround support, both before and after a release. The purpose of this new forum is to collect all of these threads, so that we can coordinate our efforts and keep tabs on Surround support.
