Multiple monitors?

ESHIREY · 08-27-2001, 11:57 AM

Mr. Jim . I know you are real busy and don't want to take anymore of your time . I know you got a lot of question about the plus pack for xp . My question is , does that mean the fish tank for xp is direct x8 ? And if it is , does that mean it will work on multiple monitors ? I have 3 and would love to see it on all 3 .

Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to read this . Also , how much will the box set be for members that already paid for the deluxe ? Just asking because I will probably get it just to have the disk with the art work on it . I love your work and want everything you put out .

Thank you for everything .

Not sure about the boxed version. Getting a lot of requests about this.

Yes, the Microsoft demo version is DX8, because it will only be installed on machines which already have XP (and DX8 ) installed on them. It should work on multiple monitors. I have not tried it, but I guess Microsoft has.

The full version will remain DX6 for a while, until I gan get some issues resolved regarding compatibility with older machines and operating systems.

Prolific Publishing will set the policy regarding the sale of the CD version to people who have already registered. I will recommend a heavy discount, but the manufacturing costs are theirs and so is the decision.
