I am trying to debug a game that runs in full screen mode, but it hard to do with just one monitor. I was thinking about hooking up my other monitor, but needed to know if i can run the game full screen on one monitor, and debug it on the other. Anyone know if that is possible? and if so, how do i go about setting it up? Thanks

when you''re debugging you have to make an option to display tour game in a window.
if that''s not possible, then try to debug remotely or just put a lot of message to some file and then read it.

I don''t know how to do it, but I''m quite sure that your multiple-monitor solution is possible.

As a simpler alternative (assuming you don''t need many debug tools) you might want to put debug output onto the screen. Implementing a console is kind of cool anyway.. ;p

I used a dual display system. You just need to tell windows much one is your primary display device.
