Multi Monitor bug

from Elemental Forums

Hi guys, really enjoying the game, except for a few bugs.

So I have two monitors, and even though the game says it's full screen I scroll right off the edge and onto the other monitor when I move to the edge of the screen!

Also something is causing the game to slow to a stand still, I have no idea if it's related to this issue or not.

I try to play a little game of keep the cursor in the game window and hope it doesn't slow down, but I haven't been able to win at that yet :(

 

Cheers,

JSmB

There's a setting in the options to clip the cursor to the game's monitor in fullscreen.

 

If you're experiencing slowdowns, please open your debug.err file in notepad, and link the contents into a post here via pastebin. This will give us some technical information that can help troubleshoot your problem.

The file can be found in My Documents\My Games\Elemental

Be sure to copy the debug immediately after the error occurs; if you start the game again, the debug log will be erased and recreated for the new session.

There is no error to speak of,

 

The game just slow to a crawl, and becomes unplayable so I quit and reload.

Will the debug file still help you?

Yes, it may still help the devs pin down the issue.

This was one of the things I asked for in Beta, and I was sooooo happy to see it in release.  Thank you for being so responsive to an issue which probably effects a very small minority of your customers.
