How to enable vertical three way split screen?

I have done the 3 split screen… combining all three monitors using Nvidia’s utility (it is done by someone else, so I am not sure how it is done, but it is not difficult). The implementation uses 3 gui widgets which get painted using render texture from 3 screencapture2d. You have to really degrade the quality of the main screen (which gets obscured by the 3 widgets) to attain better performance. There should be better way to do this, IMO.

We further network this setup to 2 other computers, therefore attaining 360 degree view (45x8, where the last pc only has 2 monitors)

Thanks for the info! - that sounds like the kind of thing I’m looking for (although a little worried about performance given that it’s going to be tough enough driving three screens already). Just wondering - did you run UE in full screen (and that’s why you used the combined monitors)? I think I’ve seen mention of a borderless windowed mode to span multiple displays also.

Yes, it seems like it ought to be easier to do given the split screen tech is already built in and functional - there seems to be no reason for the lack of flexibility concerning layout.
