Default DW Screen Aspect Ratio

Hi is it possible to get some hints on running Dangerous Waters on a modern 3 screen multi monitor system.

I've read some of the messages on this and other forums, and it led me to believe that DW is only designed to run on a single monitor in 4:3 aspect ratio.

What I also understood was that I need to set the Scaling options in the nvidia control panel to "No Scaling" in order to stop the graphics card from distorting the image over the whole screen.

So basically I have done that - I have set monitor 1 (which is the middle monitor" to "No Scaling". However when I run dangerous waters, the image is still filling the entire screen, whereas I was expecting black bars on each side.

Do I also need to change the settings on my monitor as well?

cheers
Patrick.

I was able to resolve this now by switching "Perform Scaling on" to GPU.

What Dw version do you have, steam I assume?
Read the install instructions carefully. Did you copy the RA mod folder and the bat into your Dw main folder?
We need more info to help...
