yes. i am running newest patch build..
v102_58134

I CAN NOT PLAY PLAY ARMA2 with triplehead2go
It will run at 1680x1050 on one monitor, but when i enable triplehead (4320x900)
i get a message saying unable to create graphical engine error message.

i am running Vista x64 SP2
8 Gigs of Ram
8800GTS 512 w/ v186.18 nvidia driver
Powerdesk Version 2.05

(i had better luck with nvidia v180.48 and powerdesk v2.04) but still gives me the error, if i start messing around with ther other graphics settings


On top of the triplehead problem, i have graphic anomolies playing at 1680x1050 where cockpit windows look like static noise, and objects have a polygonish boxes that exist all over the game... (i think this is due to having 8Gigs of RAM or more..)

BIS PLZ FIX....

Do you mean an error msg like this ?



Have you tried to edit this cfg file - C:UsersHomeDocumentsArmA 2 DemoArmA2Demo.CFG - , setting :

Resolution_W=3072;
Resolution_H=768;

If it works, you can set later in the game menu the 4320x900 res (cant check myself, im playing the demo, still waiting for my retail copy).

Getting that same error for nearly all settings. The only way I can get the game loaded is to run it in a window at the default settings. Probably a Windows 7 issue.

no it DOES NOT work.
everytime i get that error, i would have to go in to the profile folder, delete all the config files, so that when i restart the game, it would build new ones at a resolution of 1680x1050.

once it is at that resolution, i can get back into the game.
But if i try to enable 4320x900 in the video settings menu, it works up until i exit and go back into the game, there by getting the same error.

I BELIEVE IT IS A GRAPHICS DRIVER ISSUE.

White box..maybe you want to clear you Arma2 profile folder, and try other graphics driver and/or powerdesk ?

the older nvidia forceware and previous powerdesk was not as bad, but still got errors...

BIS ..PLZ Fix this.. I WANT TRIPLEHEAD GAMING!!

Dope,

Were you able to figure out how to get the HUD elements to appear in the middle screen?

Hi guys just set up my 3 22" monitors using softth for arma2 runs and looks great, to play i have to remove the softth hack start the game on 1 monitor shut it down ad the hacks then it starts up fine, no crashing and very smooth im using win xp 32 pro and 2x9800gtx+ one for the center the other for the other monitors, was thinking of getting a 285gtx so i can up the res.

I must say i'm very impressed the game looks great as is and is very playable.

:D
