When I hit activate nothing happens on my second display
Zauphix did you get this resolved?
Ensure that ‘Screen 2’ is selected when you click on Activate Player Screen
My imported maps do not show up on the secondary screen. Maps that came with the program do..however. Any ideas?
That’s an interesting one!
If they’re all black, make sure that fog of war is disabled
Whenever I have an external screen, and I click the Masters Toolkit from the Arkenforge Launcher, it automatically opens in my external screen and when I click secondary screen activate it uses my personal computer as the secondary screen for the players. Im on a Macbook and I have it set up for two screen arrangement.
That’s an annoying problem!
it sounds like it’s considering your personal screen as Screen #2. is there any way you can reorder your screens in the Mac Display settings?
I Matthew, just had the same problem. I fixed it simply by manually dragging the Master toolkit window from the secondary desktop (that was displaying on the TV screen) to my computer desktop before clicking on «activate player screen» in the dashboard.
Hope this helps !
