Suggestion: Update grading given that 16:9 is now the norm?

This site launched 16 years ago when 4:3 was the norm, and was a valuable asset as games and monitors transitioned to widescreen. It still provides that essential service for Ultra-wide and Multi-monitor users (and as a multi-monitor user, I am eternally grateful!).

But now that 16:9 has become ...

Assassin's Creed Odyssey - Black Bars on Multi-Monitor

When playing on a triple-wide multi-monitor setup, there are black pillarbox bars on the sides at all times. This is the case on NV Surround, and I assume is the same on Eyefinity.

When running the game at 6040x1080 on three 1080p monitors (combined resolution of 5760x1080 with 140 pixels added on ...

Re: The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings

I'm trying to get The Witcher 2 via GOG v3.5.0.26(A) working at 6040x1080. In the game it looks like it's only rendering 5760x1080 with black bars on the left and right hand side. Flawless Widescreen doesn't work, and Widescreen Fixer says it's running but doesn't seem to actually change anything ...

Re: WideScreenFixer and SoftTH work but Flawless Widescreen

Hi guys,

I've got an integrated Intel 530HD GPU and I've been able to play a few old games on my 3 monitor set-up by running either SoftTH or WideScreenFixer.

It seems than both of those programmes do not support many games, or at least the modern ones, whereas Flawless Widescreen has a pretty ...

Re: AMD Crimson: Automatic Eyefinity Profiles for Games


It seems that if you make an Eyefinity profile in Radeon Settings, THIS is the one that is activated by the per-game profile based use of Eyefinity. Any display groups made using the Radeon Additional Settings (i.e. through the 'old' interface) seem to be ignored once the game starts. We can ...

Re: Flawless Widescreen

The Mirror's Edge fix seems to have stopped working.

Running fresh install of Mirror's Edge 1.0.1.0 via Origin. In FWS I've got Override Display Detection set and configured correctly.

The fix for Ori with multi-monitor isn't working for me. It seems to be displaying the picture from all three screens on the center monitor:

Re: Call of Juarez: Gunslinger

I dropped the multi-monitor grade down to B. Partially because of the invisible HUD issue, but mostly because of the invisible cover issue. In wide open areas, cover in the mid to long distance will not be displayed, leading to visible enemies protected by invisible cover. This is particularly the ...

Re: Blades of Time

Has anyone been able to figure out how to get the menus to show up at multi-monitor resolutions?

Or how to run it at the bezel-compensated resolution without changing your desktop resolution? I memorized the menu and try to set it to 6030x1080, but when I restart the game it's back to 5760x1080.

Re: Hey, is Nvidia Surround worth it?

I run an Nvidia Surround setup off a single 670 and I love it. It's the most immersive improvement you can make. There are few games that I can't run in triple-screen off a single card.

After trying my triple-screen setup, my wife and two friends all adopted multi-monitor systems.

Re: Dark Souls locked to 1024 * 720

Glad you got it sorted out!

Dark Souls is one of the most frustrating games to get working in multi-monitor. Most games are real easy, but Dark Souls took me three attempts with a fresh install each time. Dark Souls really makes you work for it.
