Map on second screen oh yes please.

I'm not the type to get on here and make suggestions because I'm not naive enough to believe they will ever be read by any of the devs, but wouldn't it be a dream come true if you could pull the games widgets off to one of your other computer screens.

Example: Game on monitor 1; Map/battle Log on monitor 2

I hope once the modding community grows in lieu of more subs in 2.0 we someday get an app like this.

I think I just made a mess in my pants....

I would L O V E that so much.... so.... much...

That would be a pretty sweet feature.

I wholeheartedly support this message.

Just on this statement alone, I hope this is never allowed in-game. :rolleyes:

Sorry, I don't believe in unicorns, magic, dev's reading English forums, etc. I can see you must be one of those glass half full types. Heck, the only place the community reps post are in threads no one cares about for that matter, so who knows what kind of crazy stuff they relay to the devs anyway; if anything.

My hope is someone makes an app for this. I don't think it would be that hard, we had a map app in XI, and considering parsers read your battle log I bet it wouldn't be that hard to make a window that just displays the battle log.

Would be a pretty kickass feature. I hope they could add something like this to a smartphone/tablet app.

great idea OP

While an extremely cool feature - and don't get me wrong, I am behind you 100% - it would only be possible if they design the game in a very specific way. The reason you don't see many games that have multi-screen support is because you have to specifically instruct DirectX how to handle it. That being said, FFXIV has multi-screen support right now (as I understand it at least), so perhaps it indeed possible. Certainly if the game is capable of being displayed on all monitors, I don't see why this would be terribly difficult to write a mod for. Hmmm, I'll add it to my list I suppose.

It's becoming more and more common to have dual screens. dual monitor support would be great. +1

I would love to see this as well.

It's funny, when I first picked up Tera I absolutely hated the map on screen UI they had, I played tera for 5 months, came back to XIV and was like ".... map on screen where ?"

After having it for so long I really hated not having it because it was such a handy feature. I doubt 2.0 will have an option like this by default- but I would love seeing an add on that supports this whether it be on a dual monitor or a overlay to the UI.

+1

Omg you have 2 monitors? ;D

On the other hand i think that'd be perfect for a Wii U Version.. if there is going to be one in the feature.

FFXIV would be so perfect on the Wii U i think. but i dont know if the hard disc capacity is enough for this game.

Kinda reminds me of that map app for XI... APRadar, was it?

doesn't anyone remember the beta mini map?
