Lineage 2 - 3 Screen view, why don't we have this?

http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/gxm/products/th2go/gaming/list.php

Looks very neat, but one game is glaringly missing from the list, Lineage 2 :(

Heck even City of Heroes is there. Mistryl, if you get a chance, poke the devs, heh.

Whoa Sweet... Kinda like virtual head set thing. Tho it costs like $1000 for 3 monitors, still I'd get it lol.

LOL just set your own resolution, I've tested the game running over 2 monitors, ( dosnt work well you need 3 as your char gonna be sentered between 2 monitors and well be halved :P


eg how you do it, setup your dual heads to just use one head, and edit Option.ini and set the resolution to something like
2048x768 and make sure it run in full screen.

Proof? Sure:

Lastly PS ( as you can notice UT2k4 is in the list, and L2 using the same engine so figure :P )

I for one wuld have run the game like this if my gcard had 3 outputs ^^ but it dosn't ^^.

**** now I need 2 more flat screens.

i need a GFX card where i can connect 3 monitors :cool:

The only thing I hate about L2 when playing widescreen, is that the wider you go, the less vertically you can see. You see more in one plane, but less in another. :/

Yeah, the horizontal viewing angle is kept constant, so as you widen the screen the vertical viewing angle drops.

i got no mojo for one LCD,dont talk about 3... :eek:

And poke yourself for spending way too much time on Digg, LC ;)

Digg is evil.
Digg distracts from the grind.

**** thats sweet, so NCsoft, lets talk about a joint idea here...you enable support for 3 monitors and they can advertise Lineage. Maybe a bundle...3 monitors and 45 days of Lineage :)

You do realize the market share of matrox on the graphics sector is tiny compared to nvidia and ATI, from the latest reports I read their share is 3 to 5% of the graphics card market. I venture to say of those that do have a matrox card an even smaller number own 3 matching flat panels and a triple head compatible card.
With this statistics in mind, why should NC really look into this when you can probably count the number of people it will benefit in the dozens at most?

You do realize that the TripleHead is a add on device for pretty much any graphics card which allows the use of 3 monitors from only 1 output, right?

Problem with them is that it gets quite hard to use in the long run, using gcards with 2 outputs 99% of the time have 2 video heads, who separate the monitors, you can still move objects around but eg starting windows app in full screen it not gonna center it around the entire 3 monitors and just one monitor.

The TripleHead works by making the 3 monitors seem like 1 to the graphics card. So its like having one very very wide screen with a resolution of up 3840x1024. Its not like dual outputs of graphics card, where each output is handled seperately, although with its drivers, it can treat each monitor seperately as well.

For a little review of the TripleHead, try Flight Sim TripleHead review (http://www.flightsim.com/cgi/kds?$=main/review/th2go.htm). Theres other more in depth reviews out there too.

Simplicity.

It's a box you plug into your comp like plugging in a game pad. MMORPG.com has had an advert up for this think for a little bit now.

Been thinking about it myself. Just don't know were I would stick two more monitors.

Actually this was from the staff channel on stratics where WoW people were bragging as usual, lol.

They work on any graphics card.

Another monitor? I already have 2, +laptop and monitor of my router/TV/linux station... Geeez, I do not have THAT big desk :)

Who needs that when you can have one of these (http://www.hammacher.com/publish/10244.asp#)

Hehehe?
So it's WoW people who spend too much time on Digg. That I understand better. Not like leveling was any challenge in wow.
They have a lot of spare time.
