Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Raine (Arcade Emulator) not working with UltraMon

Hi all,

I'm trying to force the arcade emulator Raine (www.rainemu.com) to open on my secondary monitor, using UltraMon.

However, whatever I tell Raine (in the properties/UltraMon-tab), nothing works. It's like Raine overrides the UltraMon-functions. Raine always opens on my primary monitor, WHATEVER I do. Even if I drag the program to the other screen and close it there - it still opens on the primary monitor next time.

Anyone have any good ideas how to solve this problem? I don't care if the solve has anything to do with UltraMon - I just want Raine to open on the other monitor.

Thanks in advance!

UltraMon usually can't reposition fullscreen applications, especially games.

What you could do is change the primary monitor before launching Raine, or run it in windowed mode if supported.

Thanks for the ideas on this. However, I can't change the primary monitor, and I can't run it in windowed mode, since the second monitor - where I want to run it - is an arcade monitor...

So what I need is something that forces the fullscreen app. to open, always, in the second monitor. Is that really impossible?

I haven't been able to test Raine in fullscreen mode as I don't have a game ROM, but most likely the application uses Direct3D for rendering, in this case it won't be possible to move it to another monitor without causing problems for the application.
