Subject: World Frame and custom resolutions |
| |
I've been messing with the world frame scale and ran into a problem. I want to run WoW with two monitors. I've already got the desktop stretching properly, but WoW will only show the resolutions of 800x600 and 1024x768. I have my monitors set up as though they were one display but can't even access my native laptop resolution (1280x800). I've also tried editing config.wtf but WoW always overwrites it. Any suggestions?

You can't span any game with a single camera in true fullscreen mode across multiple monitors.
You can however run the game in windowed maximized mode, which should do what you want, just check the video options.
Edit: Of course there are always exceptions to the rule, but they involve specialized drivers and/or specialized hardware.[ post edited by slouken ]

I'm not sure. I know the DirectX API doesn't (didn't?) allow it, but I'm not sure if that's generally a driver or hardware limitation.

I stand corrected. :)
Try running on the test server and opening up the video options and setting it to windowed maximized, and then running something like the following:
/script WorldFrame:ClearAllPoints(); WorldFrame:SetWidth(800); WorldFrame:SetHeight(768); WorldFrame:SetPoint("CENTER", -224, 0);
You'll have to play with the numbers probably, but you might be able to start getting what you want that way...
