Multiple monitors test result
I noticed the table entry for Multiple monitorshas the claim that the game crashes when a new game starts, with a "citation needed" tag appended.
The game does not crash for me using an NVIDIA GeForce 710M on an external 1680x1050 monitor.
One line summary: No crashes on external 1680x1050 monitor using NVIDIA GeForce 710M, Windows 8 64 bit, 4096MB RAM, DirectX 11, Acer Aspire V3.
More details: laptop's Intel HD Graphics 4000 used for both laptop and external monitor displays, except for selected programs as configured in nvidia's control panel version 4.8.760.0. Nvidia is set to select its GPU for program Reus, using default global settings. See screenshots http://i.imgur.com/7QLs3V1.png and http://i.imgur.com/eO4JIh8.png
What I tested with a 1680x1050 HP monitor plugged in via VGA cable:
- Launched Reus on laptop display, changed to Windowed mode, dragged to external display, changed to Fullscreen, started new game.
- Changed to Windowed mode, half-dragged Reus to cover both displays.
What I observed:
- Reus behaved as I expected with no problems, although both displays flashed on and off a few times while Alt-tabbing between Reus and other desktop applications.
- Maximum size of Reus window was 1680x1050.
- After 38 minutes in freeplay mode, game response to inputs lagged several seconds, sounds became glitched. Needed to save and quit to desktop.
Memory used was 996 MB, 1600 MB used by other apps, leaving 1300 MB still free. CPU remained below 20%.
