Re: Fallout 4 Eyefinity/Surround

Sorry guys, no joy.

Using 5760x1200. Nothing seems to work.
Tried the interface.ba2 file / crashes, little 2 line ini edit, the bigger one on the main page, it even mentions 16:10 in it.

Is there another fix somewhere?
A link to that maybe, pls.

Re: Eyefinity plus extended.

In quite a few cases..

Extra monitors need the ACTIVE Adapter.

In the case above, flex with all on mDP works for 3, but one of the DP is usurping something, a time signal perhaps, from the DVI port.

So, you will need an ACTIVE adapter for one of the DP ports, dunno which one tho. Then yer DVI ...

Hold the Press buba!!

The custom setup does work ..you need to add one.

Once you have a Group there is another panel "Customize Eye'.."

Are you using just the projectors? or is there a 3rd for the computer directly?
