I've a primary monitor right of my secondary screen setup since some days. That was my motivation to hack the well known UI Party mod into supporting it. Something I dislike about the existing mod is the huge amount of different UI modding features put into a single mod. These should be spread out into multiple mods. So I removed everything which was not directly split screen related, made it fit my needs and renamed the mod. I also put in features I don't use but found easy to implement.
So I've created UI Festival.
The basic features are
- configurable UI Element positions, so that also people with left screen primary setup can enjoy this mod
- ability to split the screen at configurable ratio and per side configurable top/bottom margins for people with unequal screen heights
- ability to make most of other split screen unaware mods use right side as primary rendering surface
- works with coop missions
This mod should work alongside UI Party, but I didn't test it.
Also I have no ambitions to upload the mod to mod vault, because I don't want to maintain it for others than myself
So consider the code free to use and put it into the map vault and/or integrate it into UI Party
