Any games that support dual monitors? Besides Microsoft Flight Sim X

supreme commander. not sure of others

all the X games, aka X2 and X3 space sims...

i think company of heroes, does too??

many of these games simply use the second monitor as a radar, and the first for playing, its really quite good in Supcom.

Flight Sim?

EDIT: Just read the question. My bad!

Supcom is probably the best I've found in that it doesn't just use the 2nd monitor for radar, stats, or whatever. It acts like a second battleground display you can position anywhere either zoomed out to a full field overlay, or zoomed in to keep your eye on a pathway you're defending while you're off somewhere else on your main screen.

that sounds sweet, wish more games had this feature.

I think most companies treat it like higher resolutions in that they wouldn't want to allow any extra content to be displayed for the people that have it, because it might be construed as an unfair advantage.

I have also played SupCom on dual screen and didn't like it. If there is only 1 screen, when the mouse pointer reach one of the edges, the map will scroll. However, with 2 screens, my mouse pointer will move over to my 2nd screen and hence, I can only scroll the map in 3 directions - and not the one that joins with another screen.

How do you overcome that?

use the arrow keys with your left hand... in every rts i play i use the arrow keys to look around, i find that i have more precise control over it, and in most cases is faster than the mouse.

Company of Heroes supports it and it works very well.

sweet thx for the info. How do u turn on dual screen for CoH?

But then why wouldn't they tone down the graphics across the board because some people may still have older video cards and CPUs? No, I suspect the reason we don't see those sorts of features is that the vast majority of people aren't running dual-monitor setups. Yet.

how do you turn it on in company of heros???!!! I want to plug in my 19" lcd tv from my room to play dual!
