Planning: 1x4portrait projectors setup!?

Out of projectors for 4 years, now shocked by the low prices for decent 1080p setups Ive bought 2 Sanyo PLV Z700's and got thinking of this:

- Buy 2 more, mount 4 of them vertically/sideways for a 1920 high image x approx 3915 wide (after 3x ~12.5% blending overlap removed). Gives nearly 4k pixel ...

Thinnest Bezel 120/144hz display?

Pondering selling my 3x Dell 24"'ers as they are getting a bit jaded and moving to one of the 120 or 144hz setups.. but I cant seem to find any with thin (eg <8mm) bezels.. any suggestions?

Anyone else getting the Oculus Rift VR headset?

The one from Kickstarter project fame etc?
As a big VR fan, I got in (though I think anyone can now) the Kickstarter project early on.. a $300 VR headset for Christmas sounds pretty sweet!
I'm old enough and lucky enough to have a VFX1 headset here beside me (actually in a closet) for a long ...

Just to add, I think I am having this issue too. Thought I was going crazy, even stuff as old as HL2 gets capped at 30fps (and drops lower) with VSync on but soars to 125fps with it off. Thats not right!
Im using 12.8 and sick of swapping drivers for now so I will just leave it off.

Only the Multiplayer key

Only the Multiplayer key activates on Steam and it activates as the "3P" edition. Its not clear what that actually means, downloading via Steam now.
Thanks for sharing though!

Does anyone know what

Does anyone know what atiags.dll does? Its in the BinariesWin32 folder. With it there the game wont launch (no error, just instant background crash).
Problem is that Eyefinity doesnt work for me (every menu zoomed 500%) and Im wondering if the lack of this ATI file is causing it.

EDIT: Ok ...

Further testing in ME3

Further testing in ME3 (Origin legit version), it just doesnt work in Eyefinity for me. Can we get the Fixer working for Eyefinity too?
I think maybe the fact I have to delete the atiags.dll file to get it to launch might be a factor.. Im unsure what it does but its clearly some ATI dll that ...

The fix will work only for nVidia Hardware and for genuine versions of the game... For Eyefinity it will not work, nor do you need a fix. Just use a bezel corrected resolution and the game will run very good in Eyefinity.
Really though? Unlike the screenshots here of the fixed version ...

Sadly the latest version

Sadly the latest version ( 3.1 r400) is exactly the same. Double click to run, nothing seems to happen, a icon appears on taskbar, but when you mouse over it, it disappears as the executable has already crashed in the background.

FYI Dopefish, the current SVN

FYI Dopefish, the current SVN (v3.1 r398) does not launch at all on my PC (Win 7 Pro X64). I reran the .Net 4.0 and Visual C installers to be sure there were up to date.
The previous version I have (v3.0.291) launches fine.

Just to update, this works

Just to update, this works perfectly on the Mac Book Pro, though it appears as a mirror screen by default (easy to disable in Display Properties).
Im using it with 2x HDMI to DVI adapters and 2 old Dell DVI monitors. Appears as one big screen on the Mac and onboard LCD works too.
