Need Your Help - WSGF TH2Go FAQ

Post by **skipclarke** » 28 Aug 2008, 03:40

We have a pretty good WS FAQ (though I will take any suggestions for updating it). But, I think we need a good TH2Go FAQ. This could be a great go-to resource for all of our users who have a TH2Go, or are looking to get one.

I'd like to get input here for topics and order. Also, if anyone (who is not an Insider), would like to take put everything together (with answers), you would get instant Insider status.

(on second thought, my previous suggested topic shouldnt be included in a FAQ as it is not a frequently asked question.)

I volunteer myself to compile all the information, I would request suggestions on topics and (possibly) assistanse with a couple of the answers. And also unlimited forum search capeability :P

I still think there are questions left unanswered on their site - Can I mix 16:10 and 4:3
I couldn't find the FAQ on their site
And, many people are coming here anyway. We need a condensed set of info that is easy to navigate.

Would a section describing the SoftTH alternative be appropriate?

Post by **skipclarke** » 28 Aug 2008, 14:51

I think it deserves a mention and a description, but I'm not sure we have enough information to go into detail.

Did try to make it a Triplehead article, but it is hard to split those things up. So currently I try to do both, but I don't have both (softTH or TH2G) so users have to control/make information to add there :wink:

Did press update again :wink:

Do TH2Go first, and we'll had the appropriate mention for SoftTH.

So this is the finish line for today :)

Thanks much P-Storm, I will get to work on it possibly in the next few hours.

Okay what do we miss in the FAQ, so I can research that. What do people need to know, maybe a known isues list?

Post by **skipclarke** » 01 Sep 2008, 06:18

I spent some time tonight re-organizing and editing the FAQ. Great start all, and I think we're close to having a good v1 to publish. I've added some new sections to fill out. Thanks for all the help.

For games you have to install the Surround Gaming Utility, this is made by Matrox.

Well, you don't have to install SGU, but it makes it easier for you. You can do all necessary editing by yourself, if you prefer to do that.

I've done some more major updates and edits. Please review, before we go live.

Can I mix displays with different aspect ratios?

Yes, but only if the displays are all running at the same resolution.

I addressed this. If there aren't any more issues, i will take it live tomorrow.

I think that the section "Supported Games" is quite odd in it's current place. Or maybe you should rephrase it somehow? You've only briefly mentioned TH2Go, but then you're saying: "Both support different games..."

What "both", someone may ask? Of course you will notice the softTH when you read the whole sentence. But the softTH is explained at the end of the article, so you have to read the whole article before you actually know what it is.
