Hi,

Just got TH2go, & tried WOI. Even though it's a supported game, I get game config file could not be found when I try to optimize with the utility.
Anyone else get this? Got a fix?

Thanks,

Hi there and welcome ! :)

Before you optimize a game for TH2G, you need to run it once so that the necessary user/config files are generated. Then SGU will be able to do its thing.

Well sometimes SGU won't find the files (or even list the game as installed) even though you ran the game multiple times :oops:

WOI stands for Wings Over Isreal, right ? Does it need 'SGU optimization' before you can select a TripleHead resolution in-game ? Or maybe you have HUD problems ? (For most titles, SGU doesn't do much really...)

You don't really need the SGU. I don't use it on all my games.

The SGU is available to help users optimize titles that really require complex fixes for resolution, FOV, and HUD/UI. We continue to add games to the SGU now for good measure, however most of the new titles added have native support and therefore don't require any specific use of the SGU.

Moving forward as more and more titles are properly optimized for TripleHead2Go out of the box, the need for the SGU will decrease. Nevertheless it will remain available for older titles and tricky titles that still need fixing.

For WOI, this is a natively supported title that should not require any specific modifications. You should be able to simply select your desired TripleHead resolution from the graphics options and the game should play properly by default.

Cheers,
Mark

Thanks for the welcome, yes it's Wings Over Isreal, & I have ran it more than once. Also for the info on SGU. FSX, & IL2 1946 runs fine, but WOI will only come up on monitor #1. Any other suggestions please let me know.

Thanks guys,
