WSGF Success Story: Seamless Ent Makes Eyfinity/Surround Easier in Sol: Exodus (Update: 31st January 2012)

Just one day after the indie developer Seamless Entertainment released there new space combat simulator the guys over at Seamless Entertainment have released a patch, that does away with the need for a clumsy HEX hack to get multi-monitor resolutions to work.

Read the full news article to see how the WSGF worked with the devs to improve the Eyefinity/Surround support in the title.

SOL: Exodus, Multi Monitor Review [~4K]

Well this is my second video review, this time for an indie space combat simulator called SOL: Exodus. I've tried to take on board the feedback I got from my last review, but again any feedback is welcome, but try to keep it semi constructive. For those of you that watch my normal videos if you would prefer I stick to my normal type of video please raise your voice as well.

The fixes mentioned in the review can be found here: http://widescreengamingforum.com/dr/sol-exodus/en

While this video can be watched on any screen it has been encoded to look best on a multi-monitor system, so if your running such a system, then select original quality from the drop down box and watch in fullscreen.

Some screenshots can be found here.

Flight Control HD is a PC version of the popular mobile game, Flight Control, by developer Firemint.
