For the record: under Windows 7, dxdiag says it's running DirectX 11.
MA3 (Installer version) runs fine. |

![]() The "PSereneScreen" business sounds vaguely familiar, but I could be wrong. I have no idea what could cause it.
![]() B. For Mark Knight - to get rid of the PSereneScreen entry in the Screen Saver list, it's only necessary to right-click the desktop icon, and then select "Install" in the drop-down list. Presto - PSereneScreen disappears from the list. That's as good a clue as I can provide. |

Mark did some more experiments, and found some vital information. Apparently this has been a major problem for installer-writers for some time. The double-listing and "P..." listing are caused by the Windows Registration not having been completed (not the SereneScreen installation, but the original Windows Registration). He found a way around the problem by changing the format of one of the commands. Now he's making the rounds of all the Installer Forums, dispensing his new wisdom.

Well done, Mark! I bet you feel like a kid showing off his new toy after Christmas!

Prolific is making some changes to the license agreement wording.
I don't really see why anyone would be concerned about which version is in the installer, though. Just use the installer, then replace the MA3 file with the latest one.

When I set MA3 to do both screens, when it goes to my wide screen it cuts off the bottom of the image. Here's a screen shot. The red line is where the screens split and the black is the missing part. Isn't it supposed to adjust according to each screen?

I found that if you set the screen settings so that the screen heights are equal to the shortest screen then it will work properly but the taller screen will display a lower quality.
Hope I can help. somehow . . .

Both screens have to ideally be set to the same resolution. - See these threads...

Edit: I see in your second post, (posted whilst I was looking up those links), that you have now done that! ![]() |

Regarding mulitmonitors: While there are still some items we need to address in out-of-the-ordinary setups, you'll generally get whatever you asked Windows to do in Display Properties:

Thanks for the help. So, it's not supposed to adjust the resolution for each screen individually? Well, I guess that would take up too much processing power unless you rendered it all in the higher quality first and then for the smaller screen just had it save the pre-rendered image as a smaller size. I know you don't have much time but it's a suggestion.
Hope I can help. somehow . . .

It does adjust the resolution individually. There are just some very tough problems regarding where in the overall scene each monitor gets its picture from, in order to not overlap the other screen or the outer edges.

Just so I know I'm doing things right. Since I now have a key to get the latest version I:
1. Download latest beta.zip 2 Rename Ma3beta.scr to MarineAquarium3.scr 3. Overwrite the MarineAquarium3.scr in Syswow folder with the renamed beta. Is that correct? Also if I do it that way then am I correct in assuming at 14 days or sooner the new renamed version will expire and I will need to download another beta version? |
