Afternoon
By some good fortune and luck I will be the proud owner of 3 NEC 20WGX2pro's, currently have 2 and the third will be hopefully turning up next week.
My question is what resolution's will the wide-screen patch support..?

AFAIK it supports every resolution, as long as your computer can handle it. How does it work with 2 monitors? Guess your have the border right where the people are hit on the head.

I've tried the current resolution of 3360*1050 and thief/DDfix dosen't like it.. And on 2 monitors yeah that would be the case.

In practice other things can get in the way.

Anyway, here's a screenshot of SS2 running in (

Are you using an ATI card or NVIDIA card, weakling?
I'm wondering if my own difficulties are driver related.

And you uploaded it as a PNG, which is even more insane.

I have managed to run ss2 (thief should work the same way) on 3 monitors (3840x1024) using ddfix 1.1.1+darkwidescreen,and enabling the windowed mode (disabling the movies,just to be sure).the menu starts in a small window in the upper left part of the primary monitor,as soon as you get in the game the screen will maximize to cover all 3 monitors.looked great,but it was totally unplayable (not mentioning the body frob crashes,as ss2 is not fully supported in ddfix1.1.1),the graphics cards were not up to it (10-15 FPS).but it worked as proof of the concept.
