Has any one got TAW working using Softh TripleHead2go software?

SD-6,

Thanks for the post on the Wiki. I looked into Softh, and it looks pretty cool.

I think you could get TAW working with it, but there is still currently no known way to adjust the aspect ratio as you would need.

TAW was designed for the resolutions of 640x400 and 800x600. The Direct3D 1024 resolution is a hex-edit.

I am assuming that softh works like TripleHead2Go, in that it creates one virtual device driver for an extended monitor. In this case, you could use Glide mode with dgVoodoo (which renders in your choice of DX7 or DX9)and force the resolution you want in the dgVoodoo control panel. However, this will still stretch the 800x600 image to that aspect, which will stretch the HUD/HMD text across monitors.

TAW is currently best seen on a 16:10 monitor if you are using 800x600.
