Widescreen Gaming Forum

hi there,

the plugin doesn't seem to work for me, it changes the fov but the game runs only in central monitor.
I am using the steam versión.
any ideas?

Sounds like Flawless is not the problem. What is your setup? NVSurround, Eyefinity, SLI/Crossfire or single GPU?

What resolution or aspect ratio options are available in the game menus?

Out of the box the game ran automatically on all three of my monitors when launched. I'm using the Amazon download version on Triplehead2Go.

Hi,
I have nvidia surround with two gtx titan in sli.
I tested the game a couple of months ago and it was running across all monitors, but not anymore.

the game is the steam versión, so its updated to its latest versión (believe it is 1.0.1)
i run at 6100x1080, i can see and select that resolution within the game but as I said only central monitor goes on.

thanks

Thanks for the details. When the game runs, do your side monitors actually power down or enter sleep mode, or are they still receiving a display signal but showing only blacks screens? I'm trying to ascertain if the game is forcing you to 1920x1080 on your center monitor or if it is pillarboxing the side screens for some reason.

I'm not familiar enough with the latest NVIDIA tech, but can you disable SLI and still run games in Surround? If yes, try it and see what happens.

Hi there,
Thanks for reply.
Both side monitor are still receiving signal but only showing black screens.
Tried to disable sli but then also surround is disabled and game will only allow me to select 1920x1080 resolution max.

You have to mess with the aspect ratio setting from memory.

Hi again,

Thanks for reply.
No luck messing with the aspect ratio, have tried the tried different options (4:3, 16:9 and 16:10) available, no luck, game still runs in central monitor only.
any further ideas?

Can you post some reference screenshots? Try to get a shot from the exact same in-game position in all available aspect ratios. Try some different resolutions as well.

It sounds as if the game is pillarboxing the side monitors to black, which I didn't encounter when I tested the game. I don't think that happened to HaYDeN either.

HaYDeN, are you using NVSurround or Eyefinity these days? (-edit- Well I just learned how to read badges, and now I have my answer) Any thoughts?

sopela123, if you are willing, you could try downloading a no-cd executable and running the game from it to see what happens. I'd recommend keeping Steam off while attempting this. As always, be very careful about potential malware and such. Also, if you have no idea what I'm talking about, I'd say just forget about it.

Hi again,

I have downloaded a no cd executable for my versión (1.01 steam) and I get the exact same results.
Pls need some help with the screenshots, how could I get them? is there a program to do that?

thanks

Try MSI Afterburner, Fraps, Xfire, DXTory, or similar application to get screenshots. Fraps is probably the simplest to install/use.

Since the no-cd exe produces the same results, something about the game engine doesn't like your surround setup.
