Description

I understand Arma 3 doesn't have multi-monitor support, but Reforger does... sort of, because of my current circumstances I am playing most games on my laptop (It runs the game just fine at 60fps no drops). On first start up it loaded onto my separate monitor as I wanted it to. Trying to make the game fullscreen instead of windowed borderless moved it to my laptop monitor and will no longer be on my main monitor unless I disable my laptop monitor via Windows+P.

Hello NotHenry.
If you switch back to borderless windowed, does the game appear on the correct screen again? Also what are the screen settings in Windows? (Is the external monitor set as primary monitor?).
Regards,

Hello,

i can can confirm this bug. I have a 3 monitor setup. On first start it was on the middle monitor (my main monitor), where it was supposed to be. After changing Video stuff (fxaa etc.) it was snapping to either left or right monitor but never the middle one. I only could place it on middle monitor in the windowed screen.
