Weird. Well, with either fix, I get CTD within 5-10 minutes. Just baffling. Going to now go tamp down my CPU overclock and see what happens. Never had any game stability issues before.

Neither fixes SHOULD crash your game! They don't DO THAT MUCH!;)) SO it is either the game's fault or some SYSTEM problems...

BTW: I almost fixed the BOOK problem (not being able to read any books) for my "Stretched menu" approach:)...if anyone cares that is:))

Keep up the great work! Your approach too has its advantages.

It seems I have fixed my crashing issue. Either the problem was having some apps running - FRAPS, Display Fusion, etc., which seems unlikely - or the problem was some custom ini settings I had put in for graphics (shadows and such). If you're experiencing crashing, go into options and just choose one of the defaults again (high, ultra, etc.).

The game looks gorgeous in Surround and also 3D Surround, though it has the same issue as FONV in regards to misrendered sky depth. Also won't work if you're a bowman because the crosshair is misrendered and the 3D one breaks easily, according to Nvidia forum users. Luckily it's easy enough to hit with spells without needing the crosshair.

Thanks a lot HaYDeN and and all others who worked hard to get fix the problem...

some pictures to express my happiness... beautiful game...

i do care mate, i am using the hayden fix at the mo and it works brilliantly, apart from the 3D items and the book issue. I'm like you mate, i love the lore of the game as much as the game itself and religiously read every book i can get my hands on. So please finish your work for us.

Just 1 request mate, can you make it as easy to use as hayden's fix.

i do care mate

Everybody cares helifax, please keep it up. :twothumb

Thanks to Hayden and anyone who helped.
You have taken an angry weekend at Bethesda's "what could have been" and turned it into an awesome game night for me.

Hope they hire you or something!

The game is totally playable now. (I even have it running in 3D Surround - [gloat])

Just 1 request mate, can you make it as easy to use as hayden's fix.

I will do that.....unfortunately I never used C++ or C# to "hook" into another application (I used them mainly to create new apps or increase the performance of current ones based on the source code of the apps) so this make take a while. Nevertheless I will provide the fix in form of Cheat Engine ASM scripts and tables so anyone can benefit it (with a little work and research if you don't know how to use it).

Best Regards,
Helifax

Thank you again to everyone working on this, using Hayden's fix now and loving it. With my single 5870 on ultra with 2xAA/16xFiltering I get smooth game play, actually pretty amazed as BF3 just kills my system I have to run @ medium.

Even with the flaws it's at least playable! I'm so damn happy I can't even thank you enough. I can't wait for the final fixes.

One small complaint I haven't seen mentioned, the mouse pointer is really big and zoomed still and doesn't match the menus but I can deal :). Also the introvideo has all moved to the left monitor instead of center.

I am so impressed with the dedication and focus of you guys. I am a hardware guy since vacuum tubes so I am lost with the instructions on how to impliment this. I am going to go back and read it all again but could someone post a "Surround fix implimentation for dummies" :D ?? When you get a chance and get some rest?
For what it is worth, when I am playing in surround at 5760 X 1200 with the exception of the menu issue all is well, I am getting frame rates in excess of 60 on average and no crashes, no sound issues, GPU temps stay good, I have not as yet checked total mem use or if all cores are being used but it plays well. I am using a pair of EVGA GTX 580's with the latest NV beta driver, no real mouse issues although the U I is a little dumed down but we knew that.
I think Bethesda owes you guys a months salary.......At least!!

Oh, and yes I care about seeing the books. I am an old true RPG gamer since the first Ultima's

Am i the only one that is getting crashes when i launch the game att full resolution? Cant get it running at all at 5760 x 1080.
The weird thing is that the first time it worked perfectrly at full res and with setrtings on high.. now i cant get it running even at 4800 x 900 with low :/ I seem to be the only one having this problem.
I have tried the latest WHQL driver and the beta driver.

Kinda frustrating!

Weird. Well, with either fix, I get CTD within 5-10 minutes. Just baffling. Going to now go tamp down my CPU overclock and see what happens. Never had any game stability issues before.

I get crashes within 5-10 minutes when running in 4800x900 resolution. I ran around without any of the fixes enabled, just as a test, and it still crashed. For me, it was texture related. I went to medium textures (from the options menu in Skyrim's launch screen) and the crashes went away. I increased some things and have found a happy medium (decent textures - no crashing).

Running CrossFire HD5850's (1GB memory each, but I think CrossFire only uses one card for memory)

Another crash is related to audio, but that's been well documented on the Skyrim forums (have to lower audio quality to 24-bit and 48Khz in your Windows sound settings).
