Game always open on DISPLAY1

Balmung shared this bug ago

Need More Information

No matter what Display adapter I select in the game, it shows 4 adapters, but I have only two monitors and the entries are too long to be able to read it, the game always opens on DISPLAY1.

Even when I try to change it manually inside "RenderDisplayOptionsPart" (normal text file), it didn't makes a change. Maybe this setting didn't get correctly loaded from that file and so it always loads the default, what is high likely DISPLAY1.

Workaround: Win+Shift+left/right arrow key. That way you can move it to other monitors.

I have the same bug

Now opens even between my two monitors, left half is on the left monitor, right half on the right monitor. XD

Can only fix it by changing into window mode and back.

This sounds like it's in span screen mode, ie: middle between screens. That would be good if you had a third screen, because then it would be back in the middle...or maybe not

Nvidia did an update, and now I have Display13 & 14 x2. Before the update it was, display1 & 2 x2. So SE2 has decided to call 1&2, 13&14, yet the OS & Nvidia CP know them as 1&2.

Thank you so much for the work around, I was getting tired (and still am) of going into settings every time before I could play.....Keen please this

Nah, it is still a 16:9 image, so the half game image is on both monitors also at the half of the screen. It only moved the screen into that position.

I really hope they will fix it soon. At least it is very stable here, can play for many hours without a crash. But if you want to do some stuff for what you need to restart the game more often, then it can quickly get annoying, yeah.

Hello Balmung,

Game should now correctly remember selected Display after restarting. Could you please confirm that is the case for you?

Yes, the game window itself opens on the correct screen. Only the little starting window after starting the game is still on the wrong one.

At least for me, that's been the case for quite some time now. Long before V1.5.

Hello Balmung,

That's great to hear. As for the starting window, do you have more than one GPU?

If not, please check if the display you use for the Game is also the main one for the OS as that may be the reason.

Kind Regards,

No, only my RTX 4090 with two 4K monitors. I have a i7-14700KF which has no Intel GPU.

The game runs on my second screen (marked with a “2”), which is set up as the main screen. Maybe that starting window generally starts on the "1" display instead of the main screen. SE2 is pretty much (beside some really small indie games) the only game that has this problem.
