Dual Screen crashes?

Postby Downlord » 25 Mar 2015, 11:53

Back in time, I used dual screen. However, the game crashed every now and then. Since I turned it of, I have almost no crashes.

Is this well-known? Has it been fixed somehow (unlikely..)? I'd like to turn it on again bug I'm afraid of ruining online games.
And since it's not reliable reproducible, I can't (don't want) test it offline.

Yeah its well known. Something to do with newer graphics drivers as far as i'm aware so its unlikely we can fix it. Partytime just released a mod that makes the game simulate dual screen if you have 2 1080p screens. I'm sure you could modify it for other resolutions as long as they are matching. Without the mod you can always drag it across both screens in windowed mode and hit the Home key to split the screen.
