second monitor - Amy Davidson - 01-19-2011

Hey, does anyone know how to get it Amnesia full screen on my second monitor (a cinema display hooked up to my MBP)?

Without using mirroring... I just want it going on my second display with the other one either black.

Just started playing this game on a recommendation from a friend... good so far but haven't got past the first few rooms...

Well i don't know if there is a better way, but it should work like this:

I dont know how it exactly works on mac, but try to set your second monitor to primary monitor. Then your game should launch there

Hope it works^^

The only way is if your desired monitor is the primary monitor, or you run in windowed mode currently.

This is, unfortunately, due to a limitation of SDL.. The new version of SDL, however, does not have this limitation and supports multi-monitors (YEAH!)..

yes, just drag the white bar across in the display menu fixed everything. Thanks.
