How to play myth on 2nd monitor, Mac

A single berserk reached us yesterday, after having come all the way over the mountains from the city of Willow, fourteen hundred miles away. He delivered to Alric a single package the size of a man's fist, wrapped in rags, and refuses to talk with anyone about events in the West.

How to play myth on 2nd monitor, Mac

How do I get myth to run on the new, bigger screen I just added?

Whenever I start game it warps over to the older, smaller screen.

do you have it set to full screen or windowed ? Works for me on windowed.

windowed mode is unplayable for me, I use edges of screen to move camera...

On Windows you can press Ctrl-G to "grab" the cursor in windowed mode and constrain it to the window (and thus enable edge panning). Not sure if something similar works on Mac... give it a try.

Thanks for the idea punk, but didn't work on mac.

I think the mac version of myth has fewer features than windows version, I see in the readme that with windows you can toggle in game between window and full screen mode.

Also, playing window mode makes using the 30" screen pointless, since the viewing area with window mode is smaller than playing fullscreen on my 20".

Hmm, yeah the windowing system code is obviously one of the places where it has to be OS-specific, so not sure exactly how it works on Mac. On Windows you can indeed toggle on the fly and even continuously resize the window in windowed mode so you can pretty much do whatever you like.
