View Full Version : What to do with two monitors in SH5?

I recently bought a 27 inch monitor, so I'm using my old 19 inch monitor in other games as an advantage (for example in A-10C I use it to display MFDs). I was wondering how to make my experience of playing SH5 more efficient or interesting by using the extra monitor. Maybe it could be used to display some gauges, maps or some other equipment?
Any ideas would be appreciated, especially if you use multiple monitors when you play SH5.

I have just done this very same thing a few weeks ago.
As your two monitors are not the same size (like mine) you cant use them as supper wide screen.
Nor can you have extra windows open.
What you can do is run TDWs debug on one screen and SH5 on the other.
You can then see most things the game is upto (using TDWs UI gives lots of info):O::up:

That's a cool idea, thanks!
I think it would be great if we could display the map on the other screen and use it to plot the course on it or use it to plot an attack. But since that would take some coding I guess I should start bothering TDW with it to get it on his to-do list. :D
