Modern Warfare 3 (Triple Monitors / Eyefinity / Surround) [~4K]

Another Modern Warfare game, another crap port, but not to worry, within 24 hours of release, dopefish has already delivered a fix. So this video will show both the original gameplay footage, as well as footage with the fix applied. I've got another extended version on the way that will continue the video to the end of the level. Once again if your monitors width is larger than 1920 pixels and you have lots of bandwidth, set the quality to original and play the video in full screen for a much higher quality.

Announcing the WSGF Edition Multi-Monitor Stand

I am pleased to announce the WSGF Edition of the Ergotech Heavy Duty Multi-Monitor Stand. The stand is based off existing heavy duty stand that I reviewed here on the WSGF. It is designed to convert from a three monitor (3x1L or 3x1-P), to a four (1+ 3x1-L) or five monitor (5x1-P) setup. The WSGF Edition offers several changes and upgrades, including:

  • Integrated power distribution and surge protection for up to four monitors.
  • Curved, five-segment monitor bar that allows for a truly parabolic curve in 3x1-P and 5x1-P. It also provides a smaller footprint for 3x1-L configurations.
  • Tall pole to accommodate "one over three" monitor configuration.
  • Two additional monitor pivots (for a total of five) for four and five monitor configurations.
  • In a "one over three" configuration the top monitor tilts down for easier viewing.


Below is a video I put together about the development and prototyping process I went through to arrive at the final design. The stand will be available exclusively through the Widescreen Gaming Forum, and I expect to have it available before Thanksgiving.

Skyrim is Confirmed to have Native Hor+ Eyefinity/Surround Support: UPDATE: BROKEN MENUS

Forum member Sonicmixer posted screenshots proving native Hor+ support in Skyrim. It also appears that the minimalistic HUD is not stretched. Falcon1 followed up with a post on the Bethesda forum that onlines all the .ini tweaks, including FOV adjustments.
UPDATE: The Menus are zoomed in and distorted, severely crippling gameplay. See this thread: http://widescreengamingforum.com/forum/forums/multi-monitor-gaming/mult…
