GTR2 Menus and TH2Go

Anyone know how to fix the menus in GTR2 so they don't stretch across all three screens on a TH2G0 setup? rFactor menus minimize to the center screen, but GTR2, GTL, and Race don't. There must be a setting somewhere the change it, but I can't find it. Thanks, Pat Dotson

The TH2GO provides an alternative resolution such as 3072x768 as an option so it it gets stretched across unless the program is designed to deal with it specifically for menus. I may be wrong and there is an option buried in a PLR file or INI somewhere but I doubt it. Cheers Tony

rFactor menus are just fine. The menu screens somehow run at native single-monitor resolution. Only in-car views are spanned across the three screens. You probably already no that, but I wasn't sure from your post. Actually, I found some references to a "Widescreen UI" check box in the rF config menu. I've seen that in rFconfig and think it controls this behavior. I have to go check if that option is available in the Simbin titles. Pat Dotson

In the 1150 update for rFactor: "Made enhancements for widescreen mode (specifically three head/single viewport mode) to display UI and overlays in the center of the screen (center monitor)." I think this is probably unique to rFactor for the ISI engined sims. I am pretty sure LFS and Netkar Pro do something similar by using a different (single screen) resolution for the menus. Cheers Tony
