Widescreen Gaming Forum

yep that is the game, I saw those but am hoping to find a legit American copy somewhere and not a grey market EU version for 5X the price.

There is an older WWII turn based strategy game by Nival (great developers!) called Silent Storm that came out about 5 years ago. They had a gold box version that included the original game and the xpac. I would like to buy it but I cannot find it anywhere now.

The last I saw was a $9.99 small ...

when I try that config I get

"World of Warcraft was unable to start up 3D acceleration. "

I am going into the wtf.cfg and setting it at 5100X1200.


Normally I have been running at 4800X1200 (with middle monitor stretched and ugly) and it's at least working. Here is the config file ...

I used your config file and got wow working in SoftTH, only thing I changed was your res. I switched it to 1600X1200.

My middle monitor is widescreen at native 1900X1200 though. Is there a way I can get softth to sho the middle at 1900X1200 and the left and rights at 1600X1200 for a total res ...

Thanks! Did that and it was great.

Please see the many questions posted over on the screenshots thread you started.

what kind of framerate are you getting?

Can you post a pic of your computer and monitor setup and show it running wow?


Thanks and good work.

Thanks for the replies, I hope we get that fixed, it would merit another look at going with triplehead.

The issues I have with what you said were 3X24 inch widescreens. That is going to give you a stretched image. I wouldn't want to play with that, everybody is going to look short and fat. Sure ...

Let's revive a dead thread. I wound up buying one Dell 19 inch (1907FP I think) to see how it compared to my 2405FPW.

My intent was to buy 3 of them and the digital triple head for some widescreen fun. But when I compared the pic of the 18 inch 4:3 monitor vs my 24 16:9 monitor, I hated it. I ...

Did they fix the graphics in the game? I only played it in beta and it had some of the worst graphics I have seen and it still managed to have a horrible framerate on a top end computer.

I think the bigger problem is that you are still playing Vanguard!

Please let us know how well this works out for you. As a rabid WoW addict I am very curious to see how it does.

That would definitely explain what I am seeing. I can see the individual dots when running the 19 at the native res. On the 24 it looks smooth (at least compared to the 19).

No tripe for me :( Unless they come up with a way to do 3 24" panels someday.

native res on both panels

I currently use a Dell 2405 FPW 24 inch widescreen LCD monitor. I have been using it for 2 years and it is a nice monitor.

I was looking forward to upgrading to a triple screen 19" dell setup once the matrox digital box comes out.

To that end, I purchased my first Dell 1907FP 19" lcd and ...

I spoke to Matrox last week and they told me end of June, beginning of July.

One problem I can see is that those look like widescreen monitors. You are going to want 4:3 aspect ratio monitors if you go with a triple screen setup. Otherwise the image is going to be distorted.

It's close enough now, I am waiting for the digital version. Unless you absolutely NEED that thing in the next 4 weeks, I think it makes more sense to wait.

Thanks thats good info. If it wont run it at a decent speed, I don't have a problem with selling this one off and buying the 640 meg card. I can even go SLI if I absolutely have to. I would prefer not to spend the $$$ though.

Ah you are right, gpu, misread that.

I have an Nvidia 8800GTS, the lower ram one, I think its 320meg.

It's an Opteron 180.

I don't really care if the score is good or bad, but is it high enough to run games in triple screen? I am going to play WoW, C&C3, and hopefully when it comes out QuakeWars.
