Dual Tri Monitors

[sarcasticpcgamer 10]

Anyone get this to work? I can set the res to some 3xxx x xxxx but never will take to other monitors... Seems like everything is "fixed" and not done mathematically, meaning in window mode, i can't stretch the screen, its always the same size no matter what rez...

Got it working in window mode, needed to do a full reboot not a game restart for it to expand....... Will have a screenshot or a small video of it in a few :D

( if you want to embed a youtube video, just use the youtube ID and put it in the brackets which would be qCTHAMS4vWo in your case)

Also if you dont find any need for that dollar bill on your desk, just send it to me ;)

Okay, some update.... Steam users can launch game in "windowed mode" and this will prevent many reloads adjusting your windowed game as it should remember last saved setting.. however if you forget, you'll have to load in game, go into full screen, then alt enter back out, then adjust windowed mode to full screen on both monitors requiring three re-loads.. "OUCH"

Another reason why Steam sucks I guess, Triple monitors work without all that bullshit on the other digital download versions.

I run the game in eyefinity (3x1 monitors) and i don't have to do any windowed mode or something like that. It looks horrible in the video :(

And why do you call it Dual Tri monitors?

yeah I first thought he had a 6 Monitor setup^^

Are you actually running an eyefinity group (where windows sees one monitor at a 5760x1080 or the like resolution), or are you running three monitors seen as three separate extended monitors in windows? I have a feeling it's the latter. You need to setup an eyefinity group or look into a SoftTH setup. I'm running the Steam version at 6048x1080 (bezel corrected eyefinity) fullscreen just fine after some basic FOV tweaks.

never said i played with the video settings also said it was at 125%... who cares, the point of the video it works

? I was trying to help.

This thread helped me set up the FOV -- it will help your stretching issue.

Specifically this part:

"You need to go into the YOUR NAME.TakeOnHProfile and search for triplehead=0 and change it to triplehead=1.

Then find fovTop= and set it to 0.55, followed by setting fovLeft= to 3."

First of all he needs to setup a proper eyefinity or softh group. Or use Nvidia surround.

What graphic card do you have OP?
