MechWarrior 2 has an easter egg where it will output additional information onto a secondary monochrome monitor, if one is hooked up. I've always wanted to try this but don't know how to go about it.
What is necessary for a system to "work" with a secondary monochrome graphics card? Are these monochrome cards compatible with standard VGA/SVGA ISA/PCI/AGP cards or do I need a special kind of primary card that doesn't also map to the monochrome area (maybe CGA or EGA)?
If I get a monochrome card, how do I connect a display up to it? They predate the VGA standard, so how do I hook up a modern monitor to it?
MechWarrior 2 is a VGA game, so there must be a way...
Is anyone familiar with how to set something like this up?
