@JHTrucker

Ah, that might be a nice setting to remember, going to test it right away!

@Franz Meersdonk & @JHTrucker
EDIT: YES, by setting r_output to 1,2 or 3 I could start the game on any of my three monitors,
so that is a setting I will keep stored in my brain from now on! Thanks again JHTrucker.


NOTE, this is corrected in a later post! //BenganJ

@JHTrucker

Sticky done and you can also add the r_adapter info to that one, because one can in fact
have total control of where the output from the game goes, even if you have more than
one graphics card and a multitude of monitors. I have an Intel card on the MB, so I could
connect a monitor to it and direct the out put there if I wanted!

@JHTrucker

Nice! It's always good to have full control, but what surprises me
is that on the SCS Modding Wiki there is NO info on any of those
two parameter settings! Have you seen anything?

@BenganJ - When i thought of r_output i checked the wiki first and that's the reason i said "total guess".
But as of 1.37 "sound update" we can now select sound adapter to use in game so why not monitor/gfx adapter in 1.38 "the big gfx update".
No other info seen in regard to these.

Quite often people complain that their on board gfx is being used instead of gfx card... this info would help those people.

@JHTrucker

SCS has some odd moments every now and then, so let's hope! Yes,
I've seen those help requests too, about getting the wrong adapter
chosen. Hopefully we can direct some of them here!

@JHTrucker & All

I took it for granted the numbers to choose for monitor or adapter was 1,2,3 .....,
but it's 0,1,2,3 ..... instead. The other topic edited with this new info!

EDIT: This way it's impossible to choose NO GRAPHICS!!! I even tested to set
a monitor number above the amount I have and the only thing that happened
was that the game didn't start at all, without any problem!
