I desperately wanna play San Andreas in triplehead / double triplehead mode. Unfortunately the game only accepts certain aspect ratios. I can bodge up a custom screen w/ forceware but it BSOD's after a few mins, and besides, the screen isn't centred 'cause it's clipped off to one side. Also tried Racer_S's Universal Res Changer and Kegety's softTH, no joy there either.

The main double triplehead modes are:

3840x2048
3072x1536
2400x1200
1920x960

although some others are also possible with a little tweaking. The problem for SA tho seems to be it can't do 2:1 or 15:8 screens. I'm completely naive about this sort of thing but get the impression that somewhere in SA's executable is a byte or two that can be changed in a hex ed to only allow 2:1 and 15:8 screens?

FOV and in-game aspect isn't a problem thanks to Dave's patches but in the first instance i can't even get the screen mode. :cry:

(incidently, every other game so far tried works fine natively on DTH). 8)
