For those of you having problems with the computer terminals being off the screen, open up my documents/my games/fallout 3 and edit fallout.ini

edit fDefaultFOV=75.0000 to 150.0000 this changes the menus FOV not the game! so the pipboy, hacking terminals and lock picking screens appear how they should look.

This worked liked a charm for me at 3840x1024

edit - If you are just installing the game, I recall that fallout.ini did not appear until I ran the game once. And I hope this helps everyone! ^^


Wanted to thank you for this fix. I find the choice to go Ver- on the menus to be the better choice for normal widescreen modes. Obviously, for multi-monitor gaming it presents a problem. Thank you for the solution.

Post subject:  You're Special book won't open in Fallout3

Friends,

I've been all over google looking for a solution to this problem. I'm running Fallout 3 on my box using a triple head 2 go. The game looks great. But I can't get very far. The "You're Special" book will not open - which has all of your character attributes - kind of important.

What is the solution to this please? I'm running the game at 3840 x 1024. Have not made any tweaks to the .ini config files.

Thanks!

colin in Seattle

Comrade,

Unfortunately Fallout 3 has a number of interface glitches in multi-monitor. Maybe you can try the Fallout 3 Configurator (see two posts above), or browse this thread for advice.
Did you try playing through that part at 1280x1024 ?

Hi! First post.

Just got fallout 3 running with my new eyefinity setup. Everything working well except one thing: the right inner bezel cuts right through part of the pip boy display, and makes it impossible to see certain things (like the weight of an item)

does this have something to do with bezel compensation? how do i fix?

thanks
