Multi-monitor support #1126

Open supertuxkart-sourceforge-migration opened 10 years ago

supertuxkart-sourceforge-migration commented 10 years ago

Author: hikerstk

Would be nice to support multi-monitor environments. Attached a patch that adds partial support for this: assuming that the driver presents multi-screen as one bigger screen to irrlicht (as it does on linux, e.g. 2 1920x1024 screens as 3840x1024.

For this case normal split screen works nearly good enough, it just needs individual minimaps, timers, ... on each screen.

Use the command line --multiscreen, and draws the minimap, timer and messages on each screen. Missing: the icons (order of karts) on each screen.

This is basically the branch 0.8-multiscreen ported to trunk

maybe duplicate of #799 (but with patch)

The links in the original post are not working. Is there any other way to get the files?

Benau commented 3 years ago

Those files are no longer useful / usable because we no longer use irrlicht for window creation

XSchloenvogt commented 3 years ago

So right now there's no way for playing local multiplayer on two monitors?

Possible if your OS is smart
