  • NFS4 and Dualscreen play

    I recently received an email from someone who visited my NFS site (www.nfsgarage.net) and I couldn't find an answer to it.. here is the e-mail:

    "..... I'm sure you're familiar with the Graphics Solutions company
    "Matrox" (www.matrox.com), the creators of the G400 Marvel Graphics card.
    Like many others I know, I'm a proud owner of the card and look forward to
    games in development for it that utilize it's DualHead Display capability of
    displaying two independent screens/monitors in realtime from the same card.
    Several patches have been released for older games that make use of the
    G400's DualHead capabilities, however none that I know of have been made
    available for NFS4. Potentially, a DualHead Display patch for NFS4 would
    make it possible to play two player mode with two full screens instead of
    split/screen. And in single player action, a second screen coud be used as a
    full rearview or side/roving camera action view. In Hot Pursuit mode it
    could be used as a partner's view or the helicopter's view of the action! I
    hope you share the same excitement with me in the potential richness this
    kind of patch could add to the intensity of NFS4. If you (or anyone else on
    staff) could write or find this patch anywhere I would love to know!...."

    could anyone tell me if there is a patch to get dual screen display in NFS4? Thanks.

    none that I know of. The NFS series are made by EA, who are 3dfx whores.

      There are probably no games (except maybe MS Fligth sim ) that supports dual displays, too bad.

          Oh, That's a mighty fine looking list, I guess i'm getting a bit fossil...
          But I'm only playing driving games/simulators and some golf.
          Thanx anyway for updating my internal bios in my brain, hope that it wasn't no ebola virus...
