How to configure WinEQ 2.15 with 2 different monitor size?

Post by wychwei » Fri Mar 21, 2008 4:49 pm

I am using 2 monitors (22 wide-screen and 19 standard) I run 2 instances of Everquest 1 on the same machine. How do I configure the profile section, so that one will use the default, and the other take advantage of the wide-screen?

Thank you.

Well, WinEQ 2 Lite won't let you assign the game to the secondary display (Pro feature), but if you're lucky enough to be able to drag the game window to the other monitor and have it fully hardware rendered (i.e. doesn't start video lagging really bad as soon as you drag it over) then the closest you'll get as a Lite user will be to set your new profile to use a different eqclient.ini file. For example, it says ".\eqclient.ini" by default. You can change that to ".\eqclient-my profile.ini" and it will use eqclient-my profile.ini in the EQ folder instead of eqclient.ini.

This is where your resolution settings are stored, so that will let you use one profile for the normal screen, and another profile for wide screen.
