Why do you insist on using two screens for the game if everyone reports it failing...?

[Sacronocturn]

Actually, I just never studied this forum. Didn't know that 2 screens = game crashed
Is it true?

And i'v got sound error, how 2 screens can harm a game?
I need to play in windowed mode?

P. S. Like many here, I started playing Supreme Commander almost since its release. Played in GPG, and the problem with two monitors appeared and became regular only last year. I don't believe that the last faf patches could cause this issue.

It seems this section is rarely someone looks.

Posts are pretty consistently read quickly (the dev team follow this thread's RSS feed with a fancy tool), though replies only tend to appear when there's something more useful to say than "Oh dear, that sounds unpleasant".

Yes multiple monitors defo causes crashes for lots of people. And maybe your video card driver / something changed which causes the crash. For example I played with two monitors fine for a year, then I plugged a third monitor in and even though it wasn't used by the game, it would cause really weird glitchy distortions and hang. Basically, multimonitor is not stable, even if it worked for you sometimes.

Solution is to play windows mode and drag the window across two monitors, then go split screen. Then you can consider to install my Party UI mod to automatically go in split screen whenever you start.

Thx for answers.
partytime ill try this method today.

If the cause is in the driver. Need to find a stable version of the nvidia driver over the past year? Anyone know of a version number?

I got the same audio error, I fixed it by changing the settings in my audio card to stereo, or 4 channels, i don't remember, instead of 5.1 or 7.1.

pip
Thx! I heard about what and when i play faf - 5.1 > 2 stereo.
But this is not working with 7.1 headphones (

Anyway this should be checked without headphones.

Windowed mode over two screens crashed as soon as I stretched the window.

It's also only really useable if you have two screens with identical resolution. I used to play 2560x1600 with a 2nd screen for "mini"-map at 1200x1600, but since that crashes I only use the 2560x1600.

As for finding "stable drivers" that would fix this issue: well, when you find that unictorn, let us know. If you dig into this issue and search this forum, you can find people that bought a new GPU from other manufacturer to supposedly fix this issue... and it didn't work. Just surrender

Ok, i understand. Thanks for a answers.
