I guess it's cheaper then buying a real plane. This guy really likes his flight simulator.

I got 7 out of eight up.. stoopid ati driver wont enable second display... I got some pics.. it is win 2k.. win xp works too..

Matrox has a g450 mms now, dual/quad pci card. 16 meg/channel

The max I'd seen for Quake3 is 5 Monitors, and that's on a Linux machine. Someone should really post their pics of multiple FPS!

And here I thought it'd be a picture of a woman...

IIRC, MS flight simulator supports that many monitors in that fashion.

i hope to have 8 panels to do it with.. let me move some stuff around..

this will take time but ill have 8 head video card w/ a few panels..

i wanna know how to do that too

Win2K and XP both pro versions support up to 10 monitors on one machine. Ive done it for a client's security setup. Looks hella cool, Though very expensive. PNY quadros vid cards rock too.

Matrox makes an 8-way card, though it's very old (G200 range?) and I doubt it has any 3D acceleration that's worthwhile. 3DLabs cards can be put in multiple systems and sync'ed together, but from the looks of the other hardware he's got in that shot, I doubt he spent 5 times $3000 on video cards.

appian also makes 4 port pci cards. 4x2 = 8 we run these cards at work (jeronimo pros)

Cool. Can they have accelerated OpenGL contexts spanning multiple monitors and / or cards?

probably

It just so happens to be mine.

wow, do you have all 10 moniters?

 

[0roo0roo]

with all the money he spent scrounging for those shoddy monitors he could have bought one or two half decent crts. some of those look really old, nice 120+degrees of radiation bath there.

This is real, there is a program that lets u use networked computers to show different aspects of Flight Sim on different PCs, using WideView

Pretty cool, but, what if they are training to take out another landmark? I think the Office of Homeland Security should check this out... Hmmmm?
