Forums -> Multiple monitors -> Multi-Monitor Supported OpenGL screen savers

Hi,

I am trying to locate screen savers that supports multi-monitor using OpenGL like the win98's 3d maze. So far, all the screen savers I found won't span to my secondary monitor or they only use portion of the screen at a time like that of the 3d flower boxes. Are there any screen savers out that that would do similar thing as the 3d maze? Please send me an e-mail. Thanks.

I'm not aware of any other OpenGL screen savers with multimon support.

The problem is that most OpenGL screen savers need hardware acceleration, and this is usually a problem on a multimon system. See http://www.realtimesoft.com/multimon/ogl/ for details.

If you have a Win2000 system with hardware-accelerated OpenGL on each monitor, you can use UltraMon 2 to run one screen saver on each monitor.
