Widescreen Gaming Forum

Bought the game on christmas, couldn't get it to run. Troubleshooting found the problem--any primary display in landscape, game no likey. Problem is, 5x1 is counted as portrait. I had to plug in a TV just to play (putting me at a total 8 displays) because i didn't want to take 2 monitors down just to do 3x1L.

Has anybody gotten this working with 5x1p?

I can no longer get the Hayden fix to work. Now my 2 additional monitors (left and right) are blacked out. They center still works. You can try to change resolution, and you can see the game "try" to display those larger resolutions, but the monitors (eyefinity 5040x1650) won't do it.

I checked patch notes, MGR was updated in march of 2014. Not sure if that's why it wont work. Or maybe its CCC's fault. Either way, wish it still worked -_-

Okay, spoke with Hayden. Managed to figure out that AMD-CCC is not "returning the correct details about screens when you query them". ie- it reports 2 monitors when you have 3. This means you will have to set the screen details manually, which will fix my aforementioned problem from a couple of months ago.

To do so in Flawless Widescreen--

Settings/Configuration/Display Detection/ Override Display Detection (Manual). Then you enter the Total Width and Height for the array, then where the hud should be (which will be the same as the resolution of the single monitor in the center.)

Bam! It works again for team red.

I was wondering if anybody got this to work properly on a 21:9 display with 3440x1440 resolution.

No matter which settings I try in the display override section (Flawless) the game always has problems with the HUD. In some instances it is chopped off at the top and bottom and in others I managed to get it on screen but then the radar icons are totally off - as in the enemy markers are way more to the right side instead of being in the radar-square itself. Basically the radar is split into several parts.

Would be nice to play in 21:9 because the FOV is shitty enough and it's even worse when you are forced to play in 16:9 with black bars
