GenericBeing, I think there is a "-window" or "-windowed" that you also need to set in order for it to not run fullscreen.

Does anyone know if this will work for World of Warcraft? If so, what do I have to modify? Would it be in the Config.wtf?

I am trying to get P-L-P working with a Dell 30" and 2 Dell 20" 4:5s. I have an HD 6970.

Had been using a 24" 19:10 center and used all three monitors at same resolution using eyefinity multi-dispay. Just replaced the 24" with the 30" and rotated the 20s. Didn't think it'd be this difficult.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

Hi guys, hope this might help anyone looking for a PLP setup with 27" 2560x1440

i have the imac 27" which i connect to my pc as a display.
to flank them i use 15.4" 1440x900 laptop lcd replacements, they fit perfectly and more over the bezel is super thin. thinner than any other screens. My apartment is small hence a plp setup works best.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Laptop-screen-B154PW02-15-4-LCD-PANEL-Laptop-screen-brand-new-/220949186441?pt=UK_Computing_Laptop_Screens_LCD_Panels&hash=item3371990789

to connect the lcd screens to the computer i bought this

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Compatible-R-RM5251-LCD-Controller-Board-Kit-DVI-/270972904541?pt=US_Server_Boards&hash=item3f173e645d#ht_10100wt_1159

just tell them the model of lcd you're using and they program it for you.


Displays: 27" imac + 2x 15" 1440 x900 laptop replacement screens
Display Config: PLP
GPU: sapphire hd 7870
Processor: i5 2500k
Case: silverstone sg05
other gears:
fanatec gt3 rs with roso f1 steering, mimo imo 7" monitor running ispeed, rev burner running Defi tachometer with green pre warning shift lights and red shiftlight warning.
fanatec clubsport pedals and buttkicker.

there is still no Oficcial Support from AMD/Nvidia for PLP ? You have to use self made stuff, windowed mode or SoftTH right ?

Those Ebay links are down, could you post the seller info, and maybe what parts list you used?

Hey guys, was wondering if this trick you are talking about would work for some sort of setup for me?

I was thinking about trying a PLP set up with my 27" Qnix IPS 2560 x 1440 and my 2x 19" Dell 1280 x 1024 monitors? I also have a LG Flatron 22" @ 1920 x 1080

Is there any hope to get a working widescreen set up for this config? I think xfire is out anyway..


All I really want is a good peripheral viewing experience to add to Battlefield 4. I have it running well in single screen on the Qnix @ 1440 mostly maxed out settings (except AA) and OC'd to 110hz. (with battlescreen on the Flatron to my left in landscape) and would love that little extra viewing.. even if its not perfect, I just like to see guys coming at me from the sides..


Is there any hope for me!??


Thanks,

Ian.
