Run Forza On Multiple Screens

This describes how to run Forza on multiple screens as shown in big events setup by Microsoft.

Note: For this to work, you MUST have a seperate Xbox and copy of Forza for EVERY additional screen you wish to use.

1. Start all your individual copies of Forza.
2. On each copy of the game, go to the Options menu, scroll to the very bottom ("Credits"), then press the left control stick in and down. This will cause another option, "Network Cockpit Settings" to appear. On your main screen, select host, on each other screen, select which view you would like the screen to show.
3. Now all the screens but the host screen should be waiting for you to start a race. Using the host screen, start a game, and the other boxes will automatically load the track and their individual views.
4. Enjoy Forza like never before.

Looks like a photoshop. The text is obviously different for "Network Cockpit Settings" compared to the rest of the menu.

I'm pretty sure it's real. Here's another link I pulled off of Google from the limited access from work:

What's the point of putting this functionality in this game? No one will ever use it? How has access to the facilities to use it?

Well, it's odd the text looks different from the rest.

I have access to three 30" HDTVs, 3 PS2s, and 3 GT4s, I've been meaning to link them up one of these days.

Why not? Who has 2 HDTVs?

 

[Joates]

Thats crazy.. Why wouldnt they have atleast had this documented somewhere? Ive never seen this before but perhaps ill try to try this out sometime now.

Edge magazine also confirmed this feature.

But who cares? This is old shit, GT3 allowed you to have 6 screens back in 2001!

bumping this old thread because I remember there seemed to be some question as to whether this was legit or not and maybe some people needed a little more info on how to set it up properly.
