Hi guys - I don't know if any of you are still playing Starcraft 2, but I finally got the game running at my full 21:9 resolution - 2560x1080. There is a post about it http://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/3ba4z9/hallelujah_glorious_starcraft_2_finally/. The game+fix even works (though difficult to play) on multimonitor/Eyefinity configurations.

Some visual components of the game are a little stretched. The gameplay and the cutscenes render and scale well. Here's a multimonitor setup pic with an ultrawide in the middle.

Advanced warning, Blizzard have gone on record starting that will ban you for bypassing the resolution / aspect ratio limit. They likely won't care if all you do is play single player, but if you use this hack online, expect to loose your account.

Also this isn't a new fix, it's been a plugin for Flawless for years :P

Yeah the plug-in has been around for a long time but I've never been able to get it to work until now. I'm thinking it was a more updated version of Flawless widescreen that did the trick, maybe with a combination of the Radeon driver. In any case. there are still a lot of us out there who were having troubles with 21:9 and the Starcraft.

Thanks for the heads up about Blizzard. I figure as long as I stick to single player or vs AI, I should be OK. 'Crosses fingers'
