Big Box runs on my third screen, but emulators open on first


Gyp1428

There are settings for what screen to have BigBox launch on to get the emulators to do this you have to set them from the emulator for RetroArch go to settings video and change the monitor index in MAME you have to set the display in the mame.ini file.

Is there a guide for using multiple screens? I would like to do this too. I've never used more than one. What hardware and software is required?

I have a HP Omen with a i7 7700, 16gb ram, and gtx 1070. Only thing i changed in it was I replaced the hard drive with a ssd and added 2 - 8tb regular hard drives for storage.

If your GPU has two video ports (which it does) and you have two displays you don't really need much more BB has settings for multi screen so you can play on one display art on the other. I have a multi screen setup in my room with a 50 inch TV and a 24 in monitor in portrait it shines for playing MAME games in their right orientation. I don't know of any multi screen setup guides for LB/BB
