I'm currently heavily re-designing the core mechanics of how flawless widescreen functions... I won't be releasing any further fixes on the old framework. [although all existing items will be transferred]

Might need to wait for studio to fix it on this one.

Take a look at day1_coder's comment on the forums: http://www.fearfans.com/forum/showthread.php?t=17784

They are pending approval. Not sure what that means (maybe the dev's team lead needs to get an approval from...someone?), but they are well aware of the problem it appears.

Just updated. Better support for Widescreen monitors, and a config file that can be edited for wider FOV and for reducing or disabling Motion blur. :)

This is the list of options in the options.cfg

# Force D3D 9 instead of D3D 11. If you are having graphics-related problems under Vista or Windows 7,
# switching to Direct3D 9 may provide greater stability.
#-d3d9

# Specify a 0-based index to force D3D to use a particular video card when more than one is available.
#-d3dadapter:0

# Specify a preferred refresh rate when selecting full-screen modes. Otherwise the desktop refresh rate is preferred.
#-preferrefreshrate:50

# Explicitly prefer progressive video modes. Otherwise it is driver's choice.
#-preferprogressive

# Explicitly prefer unstretched video modes. Otherwise it is driver's choice.
#-preferunstretched

# Explicitly prefer stretched video modes. Otherwise it is driver's choice.
#-preferstretched

# This may expand the list of full-screen resolutions supported by some video cards
#-forcergbamode

# Override FOV for narrow aspect ratio displays. Range 65 (narrow) to 85 (wide).
-fov:75

# Override motion blur intensity: 0.0 (off) to 1.0 (full)
-motionblurscale:0.3

# Disable automatic detection and use of Steam's push-to-talk settings for voice chat

The patch allows for Eyefinity and surround resolutions and the FOV set by defualt was good enough for me. This game is excellent in surround. Although, it does require a ton of juice to run it. I am running an older Nvidia driver for my 3D surround, but I'm only getting 45-55 fps at 5760x1080.

Yeah, I'm getting the same FPS at that res with my 3 gtx480's. But with GPU usage at only 60% on them.

I think it's maybe drivers? I mean if I enable the 2x or 4x AA, my FPS tanks to the 20's, but GPU usage stays at 60%, and VRAM is still not full at any point either... so it seems the drivers or game aren't really optimised for scaling with multi GPU very much.

The console port strikes again. -_-
