Free Mechwarrior 4 - new resolutions

Old news, but one of the top games in history is being given free here.

BUT, as it is a very old game, it was really lacking on available resolutions. However, they have been tinkering and tinkering with it, as a prelude to the upcoming online reboot of the franchise, and one of the funny things is that it now shows several resolution options, including 3 X 1600 x 1050, and so on.

I've always dreamed of this game being multimonitor because I built a home cockpit based on it. However I'm not having any luck getting it to run in any of the resolutions it lists as 3 X. I have been able to get it to run in 1920 x 1080 which is awesome compared to the resolutions available when this game was being played back in the day.

This game still holds up EXTREMELY well and you can't beat the price (free) so if anyone would like to download and go multiplayer, let me know, as that is fully supported.

If anyone knows how to get multimonitor working for this title, please let me know as well.

I tried it with 3840 x 1024

I tried it with 3840 x 1024 (3x 1280 x 1024), TH2G, setting in the ini without luck.
Same for lower resolutions.
