Play on non primary monitor

[Jon]

One thing that's really bugging me with WMD is trying to get it load on one of my non primary monitors. I've got 3 screens each of different resolutions and due to reasons in windows my primary monitor isn't the one I play games on.

Some games are great for multi monitor support, such as Doom where I can tell it what monitor I want it to load on. However I can only appear to get WMD to load on my primary screen which is 16:10 aspect ratio.

I'd like it to load as borderless window on my 1440p screen though this doesn't appear to be possible. All I've managed to do is load it in windowed mode and move it to another screen which is a bit meh. I've tried using big picture mode in steam but this is also really awkward.

One of the things I was most looking forward to when switching from playing Armageddon was modern support of multi screen set ups. Hopefully someone can suggest a fix!

Hey Jon,

Apologies for the lateness in my reply.

I am sorry to hear you are having issue in Worms W.M.D
Having spoken to the developers about this issue, unfortunately the game is designed to load upon whichever monitor the player has set as their primary.

In order to resolve this, you would need to change your primary monitor to the screen you wish to play the game upon. This can be done by following these steps:
1. On the desktop Right Click
2. Select Display
3. Select the monitor you wish to become your primary
4. Tick the box to confirm this monitor as your primary.

Thank you for your continued support,

Problem still persists.

I've tried to set third monitor as primary. But when game launches it swithes them back, and run as before (on previously set primary monitor, not new). And when i quit game, monitor settings are switched back to what i've just changed.

Hey Yunx,

I am sorry to hear you are still experiencing issues with Worms WMD.

So that I can help you further, could you please confirm the following
Whether your PC sets the game to the right monitor, after changing the in game resolution to the correct screen and having the monitor set to primary.

Hopefully we will get some more details from this.

Thank you for your continued support,

Changing resolution doesn't help. Game runs on the same monitor no matter what resolution is chosen and which one is primary. Main screen resolution is 3840x2160, TV is 1920x1080, and small display is 1280x1024 if it helps :)

I found temporary solution: to repeat screens so that both show the same picture. It's not elegant workaround, but it works and hope it'd help someone else untill the issue is fixed :)
