Dual Monitor

Giants44 · 04-03-2013, 01:37 PM

So I have been using dual monitors for some time and I generally have outlook open on my second monitor while playing OOTP.

It occurred to me today that it would be great if OOTP actually could work on both monitors.

Something like the full ballpark image on one and all of the lineup, scorecard info on the second (ideally of course all customizable)

so 2 questions:

1. Is this already possible and I am just ignorant on how to do it? I have searched the forum, and checked the monitor and settings so I doubt it. But you never know

2. If not currently possible, is this something we might see in future iterations of the game?

No and no, I suppose. This would require our GUI system to be able to handle two Windows, and this won't happen anytime soon.

thank you - I actually really appreciate the answer, even though it is NO

I find the honesty refreshing - so much of what I feel like is promised in other games never comes true.

cant wait till next week
