      Hi don’t know if this has been covered before but can’t find anything on it.

      I’m trying to run falcon and wdp on the same pc, falcon on screen one and wdp on screen 2 but when falcon starts it seems to push wdp half way off second sceen.
      Is there a way to run both programs side by side without having to alt tab between them. All I want is falcon on one screen and wdp on the other.

      Thanks in advance,

      Pete

        It’s because the UI (2D) is only 1024 x 768 pixels, but your monitor (3D) is probably considerably more, so when you switch from 2D UI to 3D everything seems to move.

        A number of options to avoid this issue, including:

        BMS-Manual page 20: use -window command line parameter to run in windowed mode.

        BMS-Manual page 55: rearrange your screens in Windows so that your WDP screen is to the left of your main 3D monitor.

          Don’t worry about it. Even if you don’t do as Darkman suggests, WDP will return to your 2nd screen once you go into the 3D pit. But +1 to Darkman’s suggestions, especially putting your 2nd screen to the LEFT of your main screen in Windows regardless of real life positioning.
