Bifurk8	Post subject: Hey guys,I haven't unlocked Posted: 11 Nov 2011, 01:00
Insiders Joined: 31 Mar 2011, 02:10 Posts: 244	Hey guys, I haven't unlocked Skyrim yet, but had a fair amount of experience with Fallout 3 and Fallout 3 NV which are Gamebryo Engine Bethesda games and had the same issues you're describing. Zoomed in /off center character creation screens, uncentered HUD elements, etc. Is there a iSafeZoneXWide and iSafeZoneYWide variable in the ini file for Skyrim? In Fallout, I had to adjust those values to =875 to get the HUD on the center screen at 5760x1080. I was never able to get the character creation screen in either Fallout to work properly in Eyefinity and just lived with it being borked. Bad news is that the pip-boy (think inventory, quest & journal screens) were never super-zoomed in either Fallout 3 or New Vegas, so there's probably no ready-made fix for that in Skyrim...yuck! *Edit* That's right, Pittyh, I'd forgotten about fRenderedTerminalFOV and fRenderedTerminalZoom values. In my relatively working Fallout 3 and New Vegas ini files I used fRenderedTerminalZoom=72 and fRenderedTerminalFOV=0.15 at 5760x1080.

From what I gather, the game runs fine until you go into a menu, where everything looks zoomed in and is unusable, including character creation (I posted a screenshot bottom of page 3) I simply launched, clicked 'high' on settings in the launcher, and started the game.

Im playing with 6970 crossfire, im getting the 20-35 fps @ 5040x1050 high settings. haha ( I remind myself of all those trolls) Still, I think I found a slight fix. I got a 10+ fps average boost by using RadeonPro FORCE Anti-Aliasing Profile "Bioshock" with MVPUMode "Alternate Frame Rendering" AMD users, Don't forget to Force Process High Priority edit: RadeonPro Bioshock/Alternate Frame Rendering DEFINITELY gives a 10-15+fps boost. Im going to try other profiles to see if I can get a even better boost. edit2: Seems like any of the RadeonPro Force Anti-Aliasing Profiles work better then the stock one, but Bioshock is still 3-5fps higher then the other profiles I've tried. Doing this gave me a massive boost. I went from 20 fps to bouncing around from 60-140fps, which is a crazy swing, but way better than before.

Joined: 09 Nov 2011, 16:35 Posts: 16	Just saw this posted on the Bethesda forums (note response from Bethesda Moderator at bottom) Group:Members Joined:17-April 11 Posted Today, 07:56 PM I wrote a post about this before because i was worried about how the game would look and it looks very nice! Apart from some SUPER bland textures even tho i'm on Ultra setting everything to max even all the sliders, but what the main problem is, is that as the game accepts my native resolution the game menus are zoomed in. To an extend that i cant read half the text of something, i cant see an item (might just see the bottom of the handle) don't know what button to press ( i would assume that it would be RMB or Enter, but i was wrong it was "R") but i couldn't of know that because it had been cut off. Main menu: http://cloud.steampo...9BBABCE5C5E6FE/ In-Game: http://cloud.steampo...DA396EB8B9F9A4/ In-Game convo: http://cloud.steampo...0C61BCE96EAD56/ In-Game Menu (Weapons): http://cloud.steampo...D9C252BB9C1D24/ But what is extremely puzzling is that why when i press ESC the menu is perfectly in ratio to the screen proportions!? Settings Screen: http://cloud.steampo...6FD0C4BB95600C/ PLEASE fix this as the only way to see the bottom half of the screen sometime is to come out the game go back to the Launcher go back to 1920 x 1080 an start it all over again. Waste of time. If you can do it to the setting page why not every other overlay on the game?! ***EDIT** This is also having random affects on the mouse making it super sensitive on the X axis, whizzing all over the place but when its on 1920 x 1080 its totally fine :confused: This post has been edited by Zijn: Today, 07:58 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #2 CCNA Cat Herder Group:Moderators Joined:14-January 04 Location:2 Miles Up On a Mountain Posted Today, 07:59 PM You may have to play on one screen until someone makes a UI mod that supports this.

I can understand this happening. I mean realistically, widescreen gamers are in a minority. I also expect there to be a fix to address the problem. However, a Bethesda moderator more or less saying " someone else can fix it rather than us " is where I draw a line. It's total bullshit for a company of this size to turn its back on an issue like this, when indie studios have released tons of games that work in eyefinity out of the box.

Borderlands. There is deffinately a option there for "centering" tho because some of the menu's are fine. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

I paid $89 for what is supposed to be a PC game, not a console game that is made to run properly only on hi def TV resolution. It is disgraceful for such a high profile and well resourced company to rely on the gaming community to fix their game. I have played $10 indy titles that run better on eyefinity.

I was waiting for this game since February, and I would have thought that Bethesda would have had all PC setups totally tested and ready go. Now, I pick this game up tomorrow, so I'm waiting until them. But a year's worth of waiting = not having proper surround Support? Wow, this is kind of sad.. Also, can I please get some confirmation on actual PC performance? What kind of FPS are we getting on NVIDIA surround?

So if this is just an ATI fanboy trolling, to him I say: How is it that with almost every game release there seems to be issues with ATI cards, you guys can't use physx properly, and you don't have CUDA. Nvidia is also the preferred card for 3D productivity software. So suck it.

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 06:41 Posts: 5	Like others, long time lurker, first time poster. Have only given skyrim about 2 hours before having to come to work. 6870 OC, Q9400, Eyefinity 3x 19" LCD @ 4320x900 - set to "High" by default. Haven't played with detail settings yet, but everything runs very playably. Like everyone else, getting the mystical magnified and offset menus. Applied the ini fix to remove v-sync - that was a big improvement for my mouse lag and sluggishness (smooth as glass now) also running FOV 100 to keep things in a better perspective. With Rage running Eyefinity I had to apply a number of Launch Options in my steam shortcut to get things to work and look right; could this be the case for Skyrim? (from here of course: http://widescreengamingforum.com/dr/rage/en) Seen a few comments about Eyefinity support, so far the best games I've seen have been Dirt 3, Payday (I know.. right!) and Shift 2 in terms of "out of the box" and "works". The sad truth seems to be that most people wont get NVSurround or Eyefinity so developers arn't putting alot of emphasis on getting it right. I guess the business arguement circles around the fact they may piss off and loose a few percent of the customers; but the vast majority are on console ports or are casual gamers and will buy whatever they are told is good. I'll be definately keeping a close eye to this thread, I think getting the menus right would just be the icing on the cake for what seems to be a great evolution of the ES games.

H8Cr1me	Post subject: I launched the game on my 4th Posted: 11 Nov 2011, 07:09
Joined: 08 Nov 2011, 21:59 Posts: 38	I launched the game on my 4th monitor first (1920x1200) and put all my settings to Ultra and then went into the advanced settings to make sure that everything was at max. After a quick ini to change the resolution to 5040x1050 I launched the game again THE GOOD: The game looked AMAZING in surround. It was buttery smooth with the specs below. I experienced no mouse issues. I changed bTreesReceiveShadows=1 and bDrawLandShadows=1 and changed the FOV to 95 using the console and the game was still buttery smooth The textures aren't bad at all. Some are blurrier than others but overall they look great. They look on par with most contemporary games save a few like the witcher. I can't really hold this against Bethesda considering the size of the world, how much of it is being drawn, and the immense amount of content in the game. It will only get better with expansions and mods. After having seen how good the game looks on the PC I am actually quite irritated with all the whiners on the Bethesda forums that are complaining. THE BAD: The main menu and loading screens are zoomed in quite a bit The in-game menu is zoomed in to where it is unplayable. Because of the zooming the character creation is jacked up so I didn't go any further than that Screenshots I hope someone comes to the rescue to fix surround because we are in for one of the most immersive experiences ever in an RPG. **SYSTEM SPECS** Intel i7 2600k @ 4.7Ghz 8 GB RAM (2) nVidia GTX 580 (3) 22" @ 1680x1050 {5040x1050}

I shouldn't have issues running this game, but playing it with the really messed up menus is the main issue it seems. Can you tell me your exact FPS? I'm running two GTX 570's, so I'll take 1/3 of your framerate off to kinda guess what mine will be.

cerealkeller	Post subject: Well, I'm having similar Posted: 11 Nov 2011, 07:24
Joined: 13 Mar 2011, 11:43 Posts: 13	Well, I'm having similar issues to the other guy with the 580s. Running 2 GTX580 3GB and I'm getting about 80% GPU usage on both average but the frame rate is erratic. It gets as high as 80 and drops as low as 40 in spots. The kicker, enabling 3D didn't affect my frame rate at all. And this game has awesome 3D. I love it. I didn't try surround. So, it's playable in 3D even though there are some obvious flaws in the drivers. I'm using the beta driver BTW. I jacked up the depth on the 3D all the way and there was no, what's the word? Well there was no need to adjust the convergence level, it was perfect across the board. With the exception of the crosshair and some of the onscreen markers. The Nvidia crosshair works just fine. It's basically the same as New Vegas but much improved in regards to 3D. The only issue aside from that which I've noticed is there seems to be some mouse smoothing enabled, which there is no option for. It's uncomfortable for me as I don't use it normally. I turned up my DPI all the way and it helped a lot, but in the menus my mouse pointer flies around. This game is gonna be legend once we can run it in surround. I should point out that I've got all in game settings maxed except AA, I have it set to 2x. Set at 8x I was getting frame rate drops into the high 20s which is unacceptable for me. Leaving it at 2x ensures solid frames in most areas. I also always set the view distance on the grass to its minimum as performance usually suffers from it, and it looks like crap to begin with. Res. 1920x1080

Joined: 08 Nov 2011, 21:59 Posts: 38	Alright I forgot to mention that I am using the 285.79 Beta Drivers. Through the whole intro scene it was very smooth with my system. I was getting between 40 and 60 FPS. FPS never went higher than 60 due to vsync; I know from past experiences that it is best to keep the gamebryo engine from fluctuating too wildly. It only dipped into the mid 30s when there were a lot of trees and volumetric fog on the screen but it remained silky smooth. Aside from the menu issues in surround, I have to say that this is pretty impressive for a day 1 launch. Keep in mind that we are working with beta drivers, and no patches aside from the day 1 patch. I really hope we get this menu situation solved because this thing is phenomenal. And when we have surround in all it's glory there will be no other experience like it. Now if you'll excuse me, I am going to get high and kill things. I am also going to order a Fleshlight and paste the game cover on the outside of it.

But have same issue as everybody else when running on 5760x1080 Surround (which was automatically detected), that menu seems to be "unplayable". At least the character creation was messed up. Game was running okay on high settings and 8xAF/8xAA. Had around 40 FPS. But with old driver (285.27) and no other "tricks". Would be great to have a proper fix for this menu-crap and happy to donate the work, as developers doesnt seem to care at all.

Could even make it to the character creation screen. To fix it I've had to lower the textures to medium. Everything else is on max. Why high textures should break the game for me is very odd though! _________________ Il n'a ressenti aucun effet secondaire avec le sildénafil à la demande, il est donc convaincu que le tadalafil à 5 ​​mg pourrait un dépistage complet chez les patients positifs.

The UI is really an XML framework that text is brought into by the game. With other than expected resolutions the text can be put in the wrong place so it is not accessible. This is good news. So we will have a working and clean solution without having to mess with third party programmes, memory injection or similar things. Only a matter of time. So if this is just an ATI fanboy trolling, to him I say: How is it that with almost every game release there seems to be issues with ATI cards, you guys can't use physx properly, and you don't have CUDA. Nvidia is also the preferred card for 3D productivity software. So suck it. This isn't helpfull at all and even partly wrong. _________________ My Blog || YouTube Channel || Twitch Stream My PC || Game Screenshots Archive

As EvilEngineer already pointed out, pretty much every UI screen has an initSize() function, which could most likely be modified to scale the UI correctly. Unfortunately I have zero knowledge decompiling / recompiling actionscript, so I'm stuck here. Maybe someone else more knowledgeable in this field will have more success.

Then go to Options. Then click Default. Skyrim will autodetect your resolution but it will not show up in the Resolution field. That will remain blank. Then adjust the rest of the settings how you'd like without messing with the Aspect Ratio or Resolution fields. Alternatively, go to My DocumentsMy GamesSkyrim and edit SkyrimPrefs.ini. You can change the resolution in that file by editing isize H=1080 and isize W=5760 or whatever your preferred resolution is.

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 15:00 Posts: 6	So Im running on ASUS Maximus Extreme board, 2x ATI HD6870 on Crossfire, and Intel i-2500k. Also Running 3 22" Wide LCD's at 5040x1050 Resolution Pulled up launcher. Auto detect gave me the most awesome thign ever. Autoset to High while running 8x AA and 8x AF. Launched in game and started to get really stoked. Then I saw the menu :(. Hopefully someone extremely awesome in the community of avid TES fans comes up with something soon. I have faith. Outside of the Menu issue. This game was running BEAUTIFULLY for me. No issues whatsoever outside of Menu on eyefinity being out of wack. I did adjust FOV through the console in game by typing FOV 105 which i adjust to get the view I wanted it but it did nothing to help the menu issue. The tiring part of this thats in the background is WHY are manufacturers making for consoles and then Porting to PC lately. This approach has caused all sorts of problems with eyefinity and just general other problems. The last 3 games ive had (not counting skyrim) required massive tweaks and control tweaks especially to get working comfortably. What happened to Building for PC and scaling down like they seemingly did for Fallout 3 and New Vegas. Also why is eyefinity sucha problem. Technology has been out for a good while now and for a company so much into the "immersive experience" how can the menu adjustment for the 3 monitor immersive technology get lost in the shuffle? In the end, im not knocking the game for it as its amazingly beatiful and the gameplay i had on single monitor for the 2 hours i played last night was awesome. Im just annoyed that as of lately, almost every game ive gotten has had problems with it. Ive had eyefinity for a year now and when I first got it, companies were releasing games that had no problems with it. Everygame i was playing worked beautifully on eyefinity. I feel like its going backwards here. that should be the other way around. Anyways enough of the rant. Im just hoping one you coding geniuses out there can help all us fellow gamers out. I have a half day at work and can only hope something is figured out by the time i get off of work.

I have got eyefinity now since the HD5xxx series and back then allmost every game supported it. Some had a non centered HUD but that was the only problem I had. I was hoping it would get better now that both nVidia and AMD deliver a triple screen solution. So far nothing improved. I really hope this game will be fixed soon.

How did you get the unbroken menus ? The main menu when you hit "esc" works fine and looks to scale properly. All of the other menus... don't >.< The FPS hit is most likely due to how flash works and how in this case it is actually occupying the entire screen and beyond. It can suck out performance really quickly. Once it's scaled back down it should perform better. Sadly, I've got to goto work... I won't have time to fiddle some more with the swf files for a couple more hours.

Joined: 02 Dec 2010, 08:16 Posts: 21	I initially was set up in 3x1 Portrait (3890x1920). The menus were mostly viewable. The biggest problem is that the commands themselves, after hitting "Tab" (Controls, Help, Exit, etc) are behind the bezels. Some of the buttons "enter, exit, equip" at the bottom of the inventory screen were half-cut off. I flipped the monitors over to 3x1 landscape, installed the new beta drivers from Nvidia and tried again. I now see what the others were talking about with the stretched menu. On the plus side, the menu options aren't behind the bezels, but too many other things are missing. Any NPC's/walls in the side monitors would been seen through if you turned into them. I'm running GTX580 3gbs in SLI, at 6020x1200. I was getting 60fps. They never dipped, with High "default" setting. The GPU's were at 99% usage, with 1660mbs VRAM being used. Uldred.

The game still renders on 3x monitors but all the hud is moved to the left. I don't believe you want that: crosshair etc is on the left monitor... After reading some more here on the forum and personal find it seems that the menus are flash files...so rescaling the swf files could also be a solution:) _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Am I missing some sort of setting? if I change the ini file sizeH value to my resolution, will it brings the UI back in? I'm at work atm so I can't test this.

Didnt have to wait for Steam DL because of preload availability for two days before which was awesome. since they unlocked at midnight eastern i was actually on playing at 10pm my time but the disappointment with the menu stretching adn scaling was a major let down. All the more reason why i will be eternally grateful to Hayden or Helifax or whoever can find a fix for this.

If you have 5872 and press "2" the hud will be displayed in a 5040 resolution which will be a little to the left:) But the scaling down will work the same:) Give it a try and you will see;)) Best Regards. _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Hope Bethesda can get their crap together, a weekend off was planned around the release of this game! If you have time, can you build a version for 5760x1200? I imagine bezel correction is much less important than aspect ratio, since the bezels are cutting my menu in 16:10, so any triple with a 1200 vert should do!

They can do wonderful things but being considered "cheats" means that if you leave then running on accident and then play a VAC enabled game you can get yourself VAC banned. Just a FYI always remember to close them immediately after use with a safe game. _________________ ViciousXUSMC on the Web - YouTube :: FaceBook :: Website

Download cheat engine 6.1then load the attached CT file. http://www.mediafire.com/?593k7i9kn6xumby Run skyrim and load up your game. (Make sure you load up your last save before you use the hack or the hud will move over to the left) atl tab out load the tesv.exe process in cheat engine then put the width of one monitor in the value then go back to skyrim. The hud is still central, but the menus now appear on the left most monitor! Works for me, hope it works for you too! Long time lurker here. I downloaded cheat engine with no problems, but can't download the CT file. The link takes me to a blank mediafire page. I was able to get the game running in 6016x1200 by adjusting the preferences ini. but have the same UI issues as others. Are you required to have a subscription to mediafire in order to download the CT?

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 23:32 Posts: 3	Just a note about using 1 and 2 to switch resolutions: The keys 1 through 8 are used in Skyrim. I can't find it documented anywhere, but found out through a forum post. When you bring up your QuickList, you can assign numbers to each item. With an item highlighted, press 1 (it will display the 1 next to the item). Then close the QuickList. Now, in order to use that item, just press 1 without bringing up the Quicklist at all. 1 through 8 can be assigned to Quicklist items. Makes it easy to switch between melee and range. Numbers 9 and 0 aren't used, though.

Much appreciated. =) I played some with the trainer and I think it added more issues than it fixed. The map for one is a mess. The locations "float" so map markings move after you place them and the terrain isn't in place. I'll be waiting for later versions, thx again.

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 00:24 Posts: 1	I thought you guys might find this interesting. I emailed Bethesda and this was my email and the response. Subject: Skyrim PC Multi Monitor Support Message: We all thought the game was going to be compatible with Eyefinity multi monitor support. We were all dissapointed to see that we could not pick our native resolution within the games display setup launcher. Also once we manually edited the .ini files to support our resolution it looked fine, until you pull up a menu or a dialogue comes up. The overlay of the menu is HUGE and we so far have not found a fix or solution to the problem. It was very upsetting to play the game right at release and spend over an hour just to TRY and get the settings correct. Also there is no option to disable/enable VSYNC which is a major issue for PC gamers. We don't want to run 30FPS when are cards can handle well over this! Once I threw in the towel and used one monitor and just set everything to default so I could play the game, I found that the shadows were messed up. Do these games even get tested on Eyefinity and Nvidia 3D surround before they are shipped? Here is a thread about how its a problem to MULTIPLE users. http://widescreengamingforum.com/forum/forums/multi-monitor-gaming/multi-monitor-gaming/18156/eyefinity-skyrim-confirmed-hor-broken-m We know it is a console port, but we thought that it would at least be "playable" on PC right out of the box to support MULTI-MONITORS as well as customize options for display, mouse X and Y access, etc. Please take all these issues into account and provide us with an update for workarounds or patches to fix these very annoying problems. Best Regards _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hey, Currently, Skyrim does not support SLI, Eyefinity, or Dual Monitor viewing. We do not provide any troubleshooting support for these. If you are encountering an issue in running any of these setups or variations of them, please disable them so that you are running one monitor. Best Regards, Mike S.

If you are encountering an issue in running any of these setups or variations of them, please disable them so that you are running one monitor. Best Regards, Mike S. >.> ::Strangles Mike S.:: Little punk... multi-million dollar game title and they can't spend the tiny fraction to make sure menus work when scaled?

Judas	Post subject: been fighting with this game since it was unlocked... Posted: 12 Nov 2011, 00:52
Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 23:56 Posts: 3	I've been fighting with this game since it unlocked, both with the crash to desktop issue.... and with weird glitches and such. Although i run in a Portrait mode solution with 3x 27" Asus VE278Q monitors (1920x1080) giving me a desktop resolution of 3240x1920. Which is between the 16:9 and 16:10 ratio which should mean the game shouldn't give a single hitch..... alas it apparently isn't at all true... First off..... i found the crash to desktop was mostly caused by Fraps.... don't ask me why or how.. but attempting to take screenshots using fraps would frequently LEAD to an exit to desktop glitch every single time. Even just leaving fraps running in the background would rarely allow me to play for more than say 5-10 minutes before crashing... Additionally, using anything above 48khz audio sample for default windows audio sampling would result in numerous skyrim effects, mostly dialogue to come across as a low volume squelching, but it's random, and very irritating..... this wasn't causing a crash to desktop for me though at least.... And if your wondering why i'm using fraps.. it's because skyrim doesn't appear to like high resolutions for screenshots, Asking how do i mean... here i'll kinda list things out a bit. The one ANNOYING thing since i first started up the game was right around where the subtitles are located RIGHT from the moment you click "new game" i get this text that says "LEVEL UP"..... you can't click on it, and it never goes away and it makes reading subtites impossible as it's on almost the same line if the subtitles are long... Additionally, Crossfire is a so-so thing...... using the alt+Ctrl+Del solution to trigger it to work (do the alt+crtl+del and then hit the escape key) solves it.. but it's a bit annoying to have to do it.. So to clarify the above things... let me post a few screenshots showing it all.. First off, I cannot select a resolution for skyrim at all, period.... if i clicked windowed mode i can select a "standard" resolution, below that of 1920x1080... but otherwise.... blank. Starting the game results in a crash due to no resolution being set... i fixed this with the manual resolution INI solution which i'm familare with well before anything... that was easy. so here you can see my settings...... used.... and then after which i apply the 3240x1920 resolution to the ini... NOW, here is what crossfire works like when i first run skyrim BEFORE the crossfire fix... (Keep in mind that the drop in gpu activity is due to exiting out of skyrim) As you can see.... one of the GPUs isn't doing a thing.. totally sleeping/shut down/idling doing the fix produces this result. IF you exit and startup skyrim after you've already ran it and done the crossfire fix.... both GPUS will remain active, but at about 50% power... producing the same performance results similare to a single GPU... so doing the crossfire fix again fixes it. Here is what i run into when i try and use the ingame print screen feature..... as you can see below.... totally useless..... Attempting to use fraps to take screenshots produced rather unpredictable and well always a crash to desktop.. but sometimes i could squeeze fraps to at least create one or 2 screenshots ..... HOWEVER this image clearly sows whati mean by the "LEVEL UP" issue i'm having... it just doesn't WANT to go away.. i can't get rid of it.... and it appears that it only effects me when i run anything over 1920x1080 or standard resolution. I tried deleting all the INI files and forcing a complete reset, as well as full intagrity checks... no dice... it's just really really strange. heres a full resolution image that i was able to get before further tweaking skyrim... http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/9616/frapsedscreenshot2.jpg _________________

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 00:36 Posts: 47	ok so I am getting a different thing. I run the game from steam and it says game will be ran in High. and I get into game and it looks like this.. all zoomed in and stuff. My first post here, Greetings all, I am having the exact same issue as above. The game installed quickly and when I first started it it filled all three monitors without my having to reset the pref.ini file. In fact when I looked at the file it was already set for my resolution which is 5760 X 1200. When the game loads not only do I have the menu issue but the picture is greatly distorted and zoomed in, highly distorted in the hor like one monitor of data is streached out across all three. I am running 2 EVGA GTX 580's in SLI surround with the latest NV Beta driver. The distortion as well as the menu mess make this game unplayable and I have not even started to work on the mouse issues as yet. I would have payed twice as much for a semi bug free game but this is worthless. Any ideas on the Hor streatched picture to start? _________________ CPU i-7920 DO @3.6 Ghz, PSU Corsair AX1200, GPU's 2 EVGA GTX 580's in SLI Surround, Monitors 3 Ea Samsung 245T's 24" @ 5760 X 1200, Storage, Boot Drive 120 Gb OCZ Vertex 2 SSD, Program drives, 2 Ea 300 Gb V-Raptors in RAID 0, Storage drive, WD RE3 1 TB, M

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 21:02 Posts: 15	I've decompiled some of the interface .swf files. Here's what I know: Most of the interface elements are positioned by calling the "Lock" method on the different MovieClips within each interface The "Lock" method is defined in __Packages.Shared.GlobalFunc, inside the SetLockFunction method The placements of each element are determined by Top-Right, Bottom-Left, etc. Each of these locations are defined based on the Stage's dimensions for the .swf movie itself Given the last point, it either means we'll have to define the dimensions of the .swf file from inside the game itself, OR someone with the correct resources can try to edit and recompile the interface's .swf files after redefining the SetLockFunction method to use arbitrary dimensions. TLDR: Don't bother playing with the .swf files unless you have experience recompiling them. It's not the cause (but could potentially be hacked to fix things).

Joined: 17 Jun 2011, 22:31 Posts: 18	I'm looking much forward to some kind of fix for this as well :) But I'm not in a hurry since crossfire kills my performance atm anyway, so I'm only running it on a single 6970 right now (Almost doubled my fps compared to trifire). I think I rather wait for AMD/Bethesda to fix this before going triplescreen so I can match the performance better. But many kudos to you guys for spending your time on this! I'm keeping an eye on this thread ;) What baffles me the most is the fact that you can change your key binds but the keys don't change within menu's. Considering i play with EDSF basically all keys moved to the right..How have they not done this correctly? Not a game breaker but come on! Brother! :D I also always use the EDSF-keys, ever since the glorious days of Quake. It's very confusing that Skyrim still hints on default-keys whenever some help-dialog pops up. You simply have to figure out the correct keys yourself and memorize them :P Shouldn't take long to learn, but it's indeed quite frustrating.

(some more) Thanks for the info;)) The sucky part is that the swf creation failed to missing resources...it looks like we need to decompile some more swf files.... _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Looks like we need to decompile all the swf files..LOL Hmm I am wondering about the other possibility to manipulate the size of the "scene" from within the game.... If it helps, Skyrim uses Scaleform to render the Flash movies. I don't know for certain, but if Scaleform renders the movies to a texture, you might be able to alter the texture or the geometry that it's being rendered to in order to force a Scene resize of the .swf file itself. Here's the Scaleform docs in case it helps: http://gameware.autodesk.com/scaleform/support/documentation Though I'm a programmer, and have done some game development, I've never done any modding (other than installing a few), so I'm not certain what's feasible with the resources we have. I'd be happy to help code up a solution if anyone has ideas of where to start.

I'm going to decompile all the SWF and dump them into the same root directory. That way all the .fla files reference the same actionscript files and we can simply edit 1 file and recompile all the swfs with that change. I'll post the zip of the files in a bit on my website.

So when i got skyrim yesterday i was playing on eyefinity for a while even with he stretched menus. As i got further along in the game skyrim would crash when i would fast travel to whiterun or a area around whiterun. Later on it would do it when i fast traveled to other places. and so i turned eyefinity off and it wasn't doing it anymore. I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem

Batman, or saints row 3...not sure if they work in eyefinity/surround or not).

Casiotone	Post subject: I have them compiling now, Posted: 12 Nov 2011, 06:58
Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 21:02 Posts: 15	I have them compiling now, but I'm still working on figuring out how to use my powers for the good of mankind resize things properly. Here's how to get them to compile: Go download this 1.5GB monstrosity: http://www.udk.com/download (You need all of about a couple megs of it in the end...) Load up the decompiled InterfaceMod folder as a project in Flash Pro Open one of the .fla files (I've been testing with startmenu.fla since it's the first thing to come up) Edit the publish settings for the .fla file so that it publishes the .swf as Flash Player 8 and AS 2.0 Click "Settings" next to the ActionScript 2.0 dropdown in the Publish Settings config and add the CLIK classpath as the FIRST classpath in the list. (CLIK is the Scaleform stuff you downloaded along with the Unreal Engine crap in the 1.5GB download above. For example, my first classpath is "E:UDKUDK-2011-10DevelopmentFlashCLIK") Give publishing a try One issue is that the .fla file is supposed to embed the font used in the menu, and I don't happen to have that font installed. I'll be tracking those down at some point (I think it's just Futura). Once you get through all that, you can get all goofy and move the logo around and pretend you're funny by putting "LOL" over everything.

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 13:05 Posts: 35	Wow, lots of progress over the night. I'm glad to know that there are at least a few players out there that are even more peeved than I am. Bethesda's response above is right on par with my expectations. You know, these guys were over the top with Morrowind, the PC version was great. Then Oblivi-llout was just a touch over the edge for console clunky... Play a few hours of Stalker then play Fallout and it feels like a Fisher-Price toy in comparison. Now this? Visually, it is mediocre and hardly a step above Oblivion. They shouldn't have bothered. The response may as well have read "We don't support pain-in-the-neck PC gaming. Go buy a console if you want to play Skyrim!" This is the most expensive title I've ever bought on release. It's a little bit personal after dropping the cash for the video cards and triple-wide, then forking over such an obscene retail price for the game. Now I remember why test-driving with a pirate copy is such a good idea, that way I could try before I buy. And to you copyright police, I do buy when I intend to play a game through. If I were not so excited about this release... I should have known better. Shame on you, Bethesda.

Portrait EF works fine for me (3600x1920) once I went into the ini file and set a custom resolution. There is something weird though: near the bottom of my screen, there is a permanent "LEVEL UP" phrase that cannot be clicked and never goes away.

I thought it was my bezel correction, but it still does it without a bezel corrected resolution. This is with nVidia Surround btw. If Hayden can get the inventory object previews, books and lock-picking to zoom out showing these things correctly in addition to the HUD and menu fixes I would be pleased. It sucks that you guys have to do Bethesda's job. Also, it's running in DirectX9, I thought this game was supposed to support DirectX11??

I wish we were doing the developers' jobs. If that were the case, with debug tools, full source, etc., we'd have had this done in about two hours flat. Instead, we're attacking it from multiple angles: EvilEngineer and I have been trying to fix the interface's Flash files (which, admittedly, won't solve everything, but should make the game playable), Helifax is fixing things through memory hacks/injections/etc., and I'm not certain how Hayden goes about things, but it's safe to say he doesn't have source code either :) I'm not waiting until the fixes are *perfect* to release any progress to you guys, but things just aren't playable yet. We're getting closer.

Every menu is working and you can select, upgrade, bla bla bla:) Now the only problem is that I have broken the ability to read books : the book is soooo zoomed and you don't have text on it... There are still problems with the zoomed things for inventory items, lockpiking and other stuff. I tried to "reduce" the scale of the objects shown in inventory but I saw they are tied directly to the game rendering surface.... So i cannot scale them down without scaling the whole game..:( I am trying to find a way to fix the damn book text and view...but so far not so much progress... _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

I've been looking forward to this for a while. EA games such as Deus Ex and Crysis 2 look amazing in Eyefinity. Why can't Bethesda make it work in the future GOTY? I'm not a programmer or compiler, and I don't understand all the intricacies of code and 'engines'. Is it the engine that is hard to accommodate? Is it the way the game was written? Or is it Bethesda not giving a chit? I believe IMHO everyone responsible for the 'final' solution should get together and form a Paypal account so that those among us willing to show our appreciation can do more than just SAY 'thanks'. I've already paid for this experience, and it is NOT complete, therefore those who strive to make this experience complete should be rewarded. _________________

Joined: 02 Dec 2010, 08:16 Posts: 21	Oh this is funny. Their fix to the sound crackling and faint NPC voices: 1. Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Sound 2. In the Playback tab, right click on Speakers (or whatever has a green tick next to it), then click Properties 3. In the advanced tab on this new window, select 24 bit, 44100Hz (Studio Quality) in the drop down menu So, what do you do if your computer doesn't have an option that goes that low, downgrade? Between work and other issues, including the menus, I really haven't tried playing it. I think I did work around the sound crackling by switching from surround sound to stereo (handy button on remote) - only now I lose the sense of hearing something coming up behind me. Not asking for a solution, just pointing out how they seem to think you can just make an adjustment on your computer to solve their errors, rather than them going into their own game and fixing it. Sad state of the world now. Uldred

Insiders Joined: 21 May 2011, 14:18 Posts: 1232	Heya all! I am giving you another fix:) that makes the game playable! and the need of the trainer is removed. This will stretch all the menus on your 3x displays. All the bars and menus are functional. The following are broken: Inventory zoomed effect on item preview, lockpicking, reading of books(I know I hate this the most with all the lore), etc 1. Download the attached CT table. 2. Run the game. 3. In main menu alt+tab to CT and attach to the process. 4. Insert the resolution of a single monitor for ex: 5040x1050 put 1680. 5. Go to memory view. 6. Press CTRL+A to open Auto assemble 7. Paste the code : Code:    alloc(newmem,2048) //2kb should be enough    label(returnhere)    label(originalcode)    label(exit)        newmem:    mov edx,[0018FC84]    mov [eax+10],edx    mov edx,[ecx+10]    originalcode:            exit:    jmp returnhere        "TESV.exe"+D3D7CC:    jmp newmem    nop    returnhere:     8. Alt+tab to game.(you need to alt+tab 2 times and select everytime the game). The main menu will not be yet fixed. It appears fixed after you load a game and return to menu. The result is the one found in this post: http://widescreengamingforum.com/forum/forums/multi-monitor-gaming/multi-monitor-gaming/18156/eyefinity-skyrim-confirmed-hor-broken-m?page=23#comment-234303 Hope this helps, until Hayden posts his solution, or the SWF menus are fixed:) Best Regards, Helifax Attached files TESV.rar (1 KB) _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Joined: 20 Jun 2010, 04:19 Posts: 137	While this situation is indeed BS, I do want to note that the game is honestly pretty damn awesome. I have no experience in this series aside from two disappointing hours in Oblivion and I'm overwhelmed by the scope and scale of things here. Also, while Surround/Eyefinity would definitely be nice, there's at least an FOV console command so it's bearable in single screen. 3DVision is also really nice in this game; it helps with the "flat" look of the engine a lot (adjust convergence and depth to taste).

And do you have to do the resolution ini edit before doing this? Yes INI edit is needed in the 1st place for Eyefinity/Surround resolution. Than you get Cheat Engine for the CT file. Attach to process is the most top left icon. Basically you will hook into the process (game) so you can memory edit it. _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Everyone needs to flood Bethesda with emails asking about a multi-monitor UI.

Portrait EF works fine for me (3600x1920) once I went into the ini file and set a custom resolution. There is something weird though: near the bottom of my screen, there is a permanent "LEVEL UP" phrase that cannot be clicked and never goes away. See screenshot: Anyone experienced something like this? yeah i posted this back on page 21 with a detailed discription of some of the things i've figured out so far.. i really wish i could get rid of it.. as it screws up reading subtitles and crap.....

You have the same problem as I have...books cannot be read. This is because mov [eax+10],edx (where you inject the code for rendering surface) is needed to render the fonts on the books. The zoomed effect is because the rendering surface is set to 1x screen width:) I have the same problems:( What I don't manage is to get the UI centered..can you tell em how you did this?:) I am reall interested in this!

Editors Joined: 31 Jul 2006, 14:58 Posts: 1497	I am loosely following the thread since I do not have the game, however if the information I pulled is correct the trainer is only working for fixed resolutions that it has been programed to work for. However the trainer is only automatically completing the process that can be done manually via a memory editor like cheat engine or tsearch. If this is the case I would be happy to make a step by step video tutorial showing how to do it manually with an editor so those that use bezel corrected resolutions or other non standard resolutions can activate the fix on there own without making the trainer creator have to tailor to every resolution. I simply need to learn the fix myself (pretty good at it should be able to figure it out just need a top for what value to look for) and the tutorial probably easier to follow if I manage to get a copy of the game. _________________ ViciousXUSMC on the Web - YouTube :: FaceBook :: Website

Currently the left boundary is, correctly, the left boundary of the center screen, but the right boundary is somewhere outside the right boundary of the center screen. As a result, if you hit "Tab", you can't use the mouse to navigate the menu unless you "find" it and hover it over the menu items. Minor issue, just FYI.

You press 1 too see most inventory items, then hold the right stick down to zoom in and actually see the item. If you wanna read books, or look at the map, just hit 2, open the menu and read the book/scroll/text. The game is basically playable for me with just this temporary fix from a day or so ago. I haven't tried the new solution yet, cuz this old one was working so well. The game is very playable with the "temporary fix." I'm like 10 hours in and loving it. Thanks for the solution!

Joined: 20 Jun 2010, 04:19 Posts: 137	Hm, I am running into a very unusual issue: the game CTDs using the Skyrim_UW.exe injection. At first I thought it was random but I noticed that it always happened when I went near this person in the woods. I went back into single screen mode and when I met this person, I got the notice that I had discovered a new location. Maybe there's an issue with discovering locations? Seems unlikely but I'll investigate more. 580 Tri-SLI, W7 64, latest Nvidia drivers. e: Yup, this is weird as hell. It's the area after you complete the first dungeon and are told to bring the claw back. You walk through the forest/woods near the river and come across this hut and some cloaked person (old woman?). As soon as I get close enough for the "new location found" thing to trigger, the game immediately CTDs. And to top it off, it also CTDs if I try to load from a save I made in single monitor mode right after I found the location. Sigh, damn computers/Bethesda/universe etc, lol. e2: So it happens only if you have bezel correction enabled, apparently. Will report back again if I find otherwise.

I want to try the Helifax fix but I'm too ignorant of Cheat Engine to know what to do. Can anyone help? I know that I install Cheat Engine and then run TESV.CT file. Then I choose "select a process to open" and choose TESV.exe. But what do I do on that screen? "Open" or "attach debugger to process". Then it gives me some prompt asking if I want to "keep current address/code list?" No idea what that means.

CTD here, seems it wants to do that when it loads sound files? Just a guess, I can reload to last save and play through a part that crashed before just fine. I dunno. No change with my particular CTD with any combination of monitor config, patch, or trainer. Probably a Bethesda issue, and not a result of any of the tweaks presented in this thread.

It seems I have fixed my crashing issue. Either the problem was having some apps running - FRAPS, Display Fusion, etc., which seems unlikely - or the problem was some custom ini settings I had put in for graphics (shadows and such). If you're experiencing crashing, go into options and just choose one of the defaults again (high, ultra, etc.). The game looks gorgeous in Surround and also 3D Surround, though it has the same issue as FONV in regards to misrendered sky depth. Also won't work if you're a bowman because the crosshair is misrendered and the 3D one breaks easily, according to Nvidia forum users. Luckily it's easy enough to hit with spells without needing the crosshair.

With my single 5870 on ultra with 2xAA/16xFiltering I get smooth game play, actually pretty amazed as BF3 just kills my system I have to run @ medium. Even with the flaws it's at least playable! I'm so damn happy I can't even thank you enough. I can't wait for the final fixes. One small complaint I haven't seen mentioned, the mouse pointer is really big and zoomed still and doesn't match the menus but I can deal :). Also the introvideo has all moved to the left monitor instead of center.

I am using a pair of EVGA GTX 580's with the latest NV beta driver, no real mouse issues although the U I is a little dumed down but we knew that.

Never had any game stability issues before. I get crashes within 5-10 minutes when running in 4800x900 resolution. I ran around without any of the fixes enabled, just as a test, and it still crashed. For me, it was texture related. I went to medium textures (from the options menu in Skyrim's launch screen) and the crashes went away. I increased some things and have found a happy medium (decent textures - no crashing). Running CrossFire HD5850's (1GB memory each, but I think CrossFire only uses one card for memory) Another crash is related to audio, but that's been well documented on the Skyrim forums (have to lower audio quality to 24-bit and 48Khz in your Windows sound settings).

Just a normal load of the game with my eyefinity rez set in the prefs.ini will cause the game to crash to windows AFTER the loading screen when I try to load my game. It did not do this before...when I first tried eyefinity for a new game it worked fine. When I switch to single monitor rez the game loads fine.

Portrait EF works fine for me (3600x1920) once I went into the ini file and set a custom resolution. There is something weird though: near the bottom of my screen, there is a permanent "LEVEL UP" phrase that cannot be clicked and never goes away. See screenshot: Anyone experienced something like this? yeah i posted this back on page 21 with a detailed discription of some of the things i've figured out so far.. i really wish i could get rid of it.. as it screws up reading subtitles and crap..... BAH It seems to only affect us Portrait Eyefinity folks. Hope there is a fix soon...

Joined: 15 Jan 2011, 03:20 Posts: 23	Thank you SO much Hayden for your awesome fix! You rock! A couple minor things are still kind of wonky, though: 1) Alt-tabbing out and back in makes a lot of the textures go black or just disappear. I have to restart the game to fix this. 2) The loading screens with the helpful hints are squished on my center monitor and are almost impossible to read. Other than that (and the zoomed in books/3D object views), your fix is AWESOME.

My rez is 5200x1050, so I input 5200/3 which is 1733.333 (It takes the int, so 1733), and the interface disappears. I figure this is probably because 5200 is not divisible by 3 exactly? Either that or because the app doesn't work with the bezel correction resolutions?

No, I'd rather no eyefinity than have it without bezel correction...in my mind it defeats the purpose...makes it look bad. Like I said though, there are other issues with big resolutions it seams; the tree/shadow sway stops as well as other animations, so I think I'm just going to wait a while until there are some fixes.

I got it working with bezel correction too, i have a 6016x1080 setup I entered 2000 into haydens program, because 2005 wouldnt show the main menu. Also make sure to turn off crossfire from the CCC panel, or you will get terrible fps. The game is very much playable now, thankyou heaps. Now just to wait for CAP profiles, so we can squeeze out some more FPS from our super high rez' :) _________________ I7 920, ex58ud3r, crossfire 5870, 3x27" @ 6016x1080, 6gig corsair

Joined: 29 Jan 2010, 08:10 Posts: 55	I Just found a way to get it working, It involves creating another windows account so far from what I would like. It has to do with windows security settings, and that for security reasons I don't use my computer normally in an administrator account. When running the game and patch from the same account there are no problems but as my normal account is not an admin account that is not possible for me in my normal configuration. Still the problem surprises me as my admin account can edit the memory of the other account and other fixes that involve memory patching never gave any problems. BTW the fix itself works great. Now lets hope the 3D object and especially books can be fixed. _________________ i7 2600k | AMD HD7970 @ 1100MHz | 8GB 1333 DDR3 | Crucial M4 | 3x Dell U2311h @ eyefinity | Thrustmaster F430 | trackir 5.0

You can make your own marker/waypoint to memorize a certain point... which is quite difficult. Besides that it doesn't look that good and you don't really get an idea of how far this is away etc. As said, it is playable, but a bit of a "flaw". However I discovered that with Hayden's fix... Skyrim crashes very often for me. Especially when fast travelling. Dunno what's causing this.

PS: you cannot fix the "book reading" without breaking the menus...so you have to toggle between reading books and using menus.... Best Regards, helifax _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

I've tried out HaYDeN's latest fix, amazing. Everything is centered! Now, the only thing missing is being able to read books, and being able to "inspect" inventory items, and possibly un-stretching the constellations in the skills menu. And that's it! Everything is almost perfect. Thanks again guys!

Divide my Res by 3 so (1920) then start the tool.. Then I launch the game from folder which is called TESV.exe . did I miss anything... I didn't have to modify my .ini files for Hayden's fix. Run as Admin and lower your settings to high or medium if it doesn't work And for me, changing to setting in Hayden's fix from 1920 to 1963 also worked well. I run 6048x1080 normally and 5760x1080 w/out bezel comp _________________

Joined: 13 Nov 2011, 01:47 Posts: 4	Mine was also slanted, try deleting your SkyrimPrefs.ini and then reopening the launcher and launch the game without changing any options etc. I found that if I changed to "ultra" straight up, the slanting occurred, but if I just let the game do it's default, the game ran normally... from there I was able to go back into the prefs upon the next launch and turn everything in the "advanced" section to max and it worked fine. Give that a go? With HaYDeN's fix the menus are much better, thanks! The inability to read books is a bit of a letdown, but I'm sure this will be fixed soon. I am also experiencing a few CTDs, when exiting a town and fast travelling etc, probably happens about 1 in 10 times. This had never occurred before I applied the fix, but I was running on one screen then too. Thanks for the fix, keep up the good work!

I'm running 5960x1080 bezel corrected and other than the books everything works perfect. Last night the game was unplayable and I woke up this morning and tried HaYDeN's fix, entered 1986 for the offset and It's worked great all day.

Joined: 13 Nov 2011, 05:43 Posts: 1	Hey all, long time lurker as well. Wanted to post a thank you message for the fixes, for all you who worked on them. My computer does not seem to like Hayden's fix for some reason? Attached is a picture, its hard to see but I'll try to explain. This is after switching from 1920x1080 to 5760x1080. I'm supposed to be looking at an NPC with torches around him in a building, but all I see are faint outlines and apparently a wall. But wherever I go or look it seems like its zoomed in on the wall, with about 80% opacity, I can barely see the outlines of the NPC - The torches are also what I'm supposed to see. Same is outside, starting scene riding in the cart, I saw a silhouette through some way zoomed in trees. Also in the menu my mouse sensitivity is crazy high when applying Haydens fix. I'm guessing the two problems are related, any ideas? Here's pic: http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/1306/wallopacity.jpg Edit: 2 more easier to see ones to see the problem. http://img545.imageshack.us/img545/4506/tesv2011111222090025.jpg - http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/239/tesv2011111222083389.jpg Again Thanks in advance for all the help.

On my system: 1 x 6970 = about 30 FPS (5760*1200 - Ultra) 3 * 6970s = about 10 FPS (same settings) So, it looks like at least for AMD cards, crossfire is currently stupidly broken - try running with just 1 580, and see if that helps - I heard that nvidia had released beta drivers for Skyrim, but I don't know if they've been confirmed to improve anything. Also, a big thanks to Hayden and Helifax - have tried both of your fixes, and both worked at getting the game playable in eyefinity res - it amazes me how the fine folks here can get seemingly far more complicated things sorted out faster than the guys at Nvidia/AMD who have most likely had access to these games for weeks in advance, but still can't release decent working driveers for weeks after they launch. Oh well - enough whining - off to bed now, but thanks again, guys :)

Sorry, but I'm having trouble understanding what you wrote grammatically, as I'm trying to see if there's something I can do to boost my FPS - if the game is not properly utilizing my graphics cards. No Problem. Were shooting for 580s to have above 40+ FPS here, results will vary with other hardware. Also not trying to sound like a jerk so please bare with. I am also tired as hell, probably why my grammar sucked in my last post. /c: If you have made changes to your Skyrimprefs.ini or Skyrim.ini (like I did for water effects and FOV) you may want to try this. After I made these changed my FPS went to the teens, I had to do these steps to get it back up to 45+ FPS average at 5760x1080, try this: 1: Open up Skyrim Launcher 2: Go to Options 2: Changed Anti Aliasing (AA) to 2x 3: Go to Advanced 4: Uncheck FXAA* 5: Click Close > OK > Play 6: If you get FPS improvement, go back to the Options, put the AA back to what you want and re-enable FXAA if you want. * = If FXAA is all ready unchecked that is fine, this worked for me both on and off. I think the AA setting is the problem here anyways. The reason you may have to do this is because there have been some reports of the launcher not using the defined settings in those files, especially if you have changed them recently. I know that Dragon Age 2 launcher did something similar when it wouldn't disable DX11 features for DX10 cards causing major fps drop, when changing from ultra to high. If that wasn't your problem or if that didn't work try this: 1: Go to the Nvidia Control Panel 2: Go to "Manage 3D settings" on the left hand side 3: Go to "Program Settings" on the right hand side 4:Check to see if "Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim" is in the list, *skip to 6 if it has it" 5: Click on ADD go to " Steamsteamappscommonskyrim " and click on "TESV.exe" and then click Open 6: Under "Multi-display/mixed-GPU acceleration" make sure it says to the right "Use global settings (Multipule display performance mode)", if it isn't select it 7: Click Apply at the bottom The reason you may need to do this is because sometimes NVCP doesn't automatically pick up games that unique SLI profiles. I've noticed this since I started using SLI with my 8800's on up to my current 580's, and most recently with SWTOR beta (yes the nvidia drivers have a profile for it). _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

Yes, you should be getting higher FPS. Our cards have only 1.2GB VRAM, there should be a ceiling somewhere- but I'm playing at 6000x1200 on ultra 2xAA 16xAF without issue.

Amazing work on the fix, hopefully the desktop crashing is one of the kinks that will be figgured out.

Is lock-picking zoomed out? And that bug where the loading screen had a black background in the center monitor, but light-blue backgrounds on the left and right monitors.

But honestly, getting the UI elements perfected is way more important than some few places that gives me FPS issues. Although fixing both would be a god send. To shed some light on this situation for folks, let me say that this is a very unusual game in terms of performance. On my system (3 GTX 580s and i5 @ 4ghz) the GPU usage can go as low as 22% outside before ramping up somewhat to 50%+. If I run it in 3D, then they go full burn at 99%. In either case, the FPS refuses to budge much above 40 to 50 in many outdoor areas. Part of the problem appears to be a big CPU "bottleneck", and I put that in quotes because the game inexplicably only uses two threads: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/skyrim-performance-benchmark,3074-9.html However, as others note here (http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/skyrim-performance-benchmark,3074-9.html), the FPS climbs rapidly in dungeons, so I'm sure there are some optimization issues going on as well. Also, if you have 3DVision and you want to run in 2D, disable 3D from NCP. Like some other games, the 2D performance runs at 3D FPS if you have 3D enabled in NCP.

Haven't run FRAPS, but the game runs as smooth as Fallout3. I haven't bothered with my overclock on the GPUs, seems to be enough at vanilla... 905MHz is there if needed, but it's not necessary here. Someone mentioned a CPU bottleneck. I disagree- have you checked your chart recorder for CPU usage? This game is pretty low. [email protected], 12GB RAM... decent, but my system resources have elbow room for days. Remember, this game has to run on consoles that represent midrange PCs from 5 years ago. Yeah, we essentially have the exact same system. I actually just added Skyrim to the NVIDIA control panel. Can't *quite* tell if there's an improvement in FPS, I think there might be. But only like about 9 or so FPS. In some places, I dip down to 20 FPS when it's really busy. It's sort of strange, only when there's buildings present. Also, my GPU usage always seems to stay between 40% - 60% usage on both GPU's Otherwise I'm usually 35 FPS average or so. Some times 40 average. But honestly, getting the UI elements perfected is way more important than some few places that gives me FPS issues. Although fixing both would be a god send. Huh, I'm getting 100% on both cards, 40-60 FPS with no slowdowns. I only did the two shadow tweaks that were brought up on release day, but my ground shadows look like crap... Not using any SLI profile, either. Now, for some pics of the bummer texture bug... my first dragon had no skin! I did an F9, and the skin was normal after that. Really weird, textures getting corrupted like this then reverting to normal on a quickload.

Joined: 13 Nov 2011, 16:37 Posts: 10	Morning all- So I finally broke down after reading all the killer reviews. I was completely excited to jump in and try it out. I spent the past 5 hours just trying to get the resolution correct - I am missing something somewhere. eVGA 460 with Matrox 3H2Go 3x22 = 5040 x 1050 2600k @ 4.7 ghz I have updated my driver to 285.79. I am still getting the mega-zoom / incorrect field of view when I get in to the game. Here are the things I have tried and done: 1) Manually changed ini to 5040 x 1050 2) Used the HaYDeN tool (with a 1680 injection) 3) Start game with TESV.exe 4) Messed around with ' + FOV ### I am not even to the menu stretch... I can't even get the base to give me the correct field of view. I have waded through the 46 pages and I don't see anything specific regarding the zoon in / FOV issues - only the menu issue. Any / all help is appreciated. Bman.

Joined: 09 Jan 2010, 00:50 Posts: 90	Just chiming in about vsync and some shadow stuff.. I fired the game up for the first time on friday and had 1920x1080 res with screen tearing and serious mouse lag so did the two iPresentInterval=0 bMouseAcceleration=0 And it acted more like vsync was on afterward... no tearing and very snappy mouse.. weird. I have a 920 @ 3.8 with HT off and two 470s overclocked to 820/1900 and running the new beta driver with Hayden's fix @ res 5760x1080... I get up to 99% gpu use and up to 1220mb of vmem used in some of the outdoors areas.. I have everything on ultra with no AA and 16x AF. I did the tree and ground shadow tweaks everyone seemed to do on day one bTreesReceiveShadows=1 bDrawLandShadows=1 and the following additional shadow tweaks iShadowMapResolution=4096 fShadowBiasScale=0.1500 iShadowMaskQuarter=0 iBlurDeferredShadowMask=5 bFloatPointRenderTarget=1 iShadowFilter=1 iShadowMode=3 bTreesReceiveShadows=1 bDrawLandShadows=1 bDrawShadows=1 bShadowMaskZPrepass=0 bMainZPrepass=0 Those softened the shadows up a bit.. but I get some glitches here and there.. like the shadows are pulsing a bit every 10 seconds or so for 1 second, but only every once in a while.. not everywhere. So I can live with it for now. Outdoors when I pan across a large vista the FPS dip below 30 but for the most part the game runs very smoothly.. I was worried I was going to be disappointed and want to get two 3G 580s right off the bat but these overclocked 470s on this x58 platform seem to be doing fairly well still (after what, almost 2 years now?). Anyways, just wanted to share some info... and BIG thanks to Hayden and Helifax and everyone involved with the multi screen fix... you totally RULE!

One question though, since I like low mouse sensitivity the ingame menu sensitivity seems to be different as in higher than my setting. Did you insert a fixed mouse sens for the ingame menu? And can I change that somehow? :) I'm all over the place when in the menu since I have troubles controlling my mouse cursor on that sensitivity :D Apologies if the "problem" has been said already :) EDIT: typo >>

Well, mine is done...basically I know what to do...the only thing I am trying now is to find a way to make this "easy to use". I don't think anyone wants to spend like 5 minutes before playing the game only to make it playable. Hayden's fix is awesome!!! He basically nailed down everything. Mine is not so advanced..It stretches the hud to screen ( so no problems with loading bars, or map) but I still need to toggle before to read a book. Also the inventory items are still zoomed... If people are interested I can provide this fix also:) But I do believe Hayden's will be the one mostly used cause is more advanced! Best Regards, Helifax _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Try the console command "Fov xx" (~ for console, xx for an fov number)

So check it out, from what i've figgured out it allows a process to use more then 2gigs of memory. And it works for me anyways.

I am not experiencing any Crashes or SLI Problems... and I am working on a GTX 590 in 3D Surround...so....I don't know what the problem really is..and yes everything is set on Ultra.... For the people that are interested in playing the game with stretched hud (if there are any) I have found a workaround for reading books. Steps: 1. Fire up the game. 2. Fire up Cheat Engine and attach to the game. 3. Go to "memory view", select a any "line" and press CTRL+A. 4. In the Auto assemble window paste this code: Code:        alloc(newmem,1024)    label(returnhere)    label(exit)        newmem:    mov edx, [0018FC84]    mov [eax+10],edx        exit:    jmp returnhere        "TESV.exe"+D3D7CC:    jmp newmem    nop    returnhere: 5. Hit Execute. 6. Use the provided trainer to select between stretched HUD or Reading books ("-" key to Stretched HUD, "+" key to change to "book reading mode" prior reading a book) 7. ALT+TAB and play. 8. Two trainers are included:5040x1050 & 5760x1080 : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=MVAU8T8P What you get: - All the menus are functional, including map, level-up, etc - Loading screens are working properly - Items preview in inventory IS STILL ZOOMED (I am still looking into this) Best Regards, Helifax _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Are we all using FRAPS? Any others out there? Thanks. I have two pieces of advice here: 1. Don't run FRAPS. I think these frame-rate counting programs increase the chance of crashing when used with the widescreen fix. This has significantly reduced my CTDs. 2. Once you have a smooth gameplay experience dialed in, don't obsess over and stare at FRAPS counter. I was getting very frustrated to see that, whether on one screen or three screens, the game only runs at 35-45 FPS in the outdoors much of the time even though I'm running three 580s. As I said before, this is because of a weird CPU "bottleneck" where the FPS increases as you increase CPU speed, but it's very inefficient since it only uses two threads. Anyway, when I turned FRAPS off because of reason #1, I realized that even 30+ FPS minimum feels smooth and just fine in this game - no hitching and stuttering. This is not a title where you need 60 or 120 FPS like a fast-paced FPS. Just enjoy it!

When it has to present it at a higher resolution, it's only option is to stretch. =/ The game right now is basically using a default scale method which does his. However if they simply added one line in their original FLA files Stage.scaleMode = "showAll" That would have fixed most of the problems we are having. Still wouldn't address the 3d model issue though that they incorporate with the menu system though.

It broke mine :) I have not seen it come anywhere near 2Gb of RAM usage anyways so I don't think it will make a difference. I second that. Game RAM use is below 2GB according to my resource monitor. VRAM is maxed, though... but that is a whole 'nuther issue. Wish I had two of those 3GB cards right about now!

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 21:08 Posts: 16	Im reletively new to widescreen gaming, i got my setup mainly for Forza Motorsport 4 on xbox 360, which works great, but discovered that no other game supports this feature. I contacted a few software developers inc Bathesda, and they all pretty much said that there isn't much call for it. So sitting at my desk surrounded by pretty much 2 x redundant 32" TV's, unless im racing, i decided to get a PC gaiming rig. Only had it for a few weeks and im very impressed with eyefinity, but 1 thing that seems to get me, on the games i play in eyefinity like Minecraft, Rage, Amnesia and this game i notice the outside screens are stretched, so if i look about and there is a character standing next to me, when he appears on the left or right screen at the extremities he is all stretched and destorted. My Question - is this normal or do i have things setup wrong? it doesnt distract much from gaming its just is it the same for everyone. I notice when i go back to xbox and FM4 i dont get the stretching on the edges of the outside screens. just wanted to throw that out to the comunity whilst we wait for the skyrim fix to appear.

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 00:36 Posts: 47	HaYDeN's fix is working for me. I am able to play and I have now done so for a few hours. My frame rates are great, no crashes, no sound issues. The first thing I did when exiting the game was to send a donation fo Flawless. Thank you all so much. I do have a few questions: 1. As I cannot read books I also cannot see spells to learn them so I assume I should just go back to 1920 X 1200 for a short time to read and to learn spells? Right? Am I missing something that will make them readable? I really have no issue going back to a single screen for a short time just to do the reading and to learn spells. 2. Do I turn off my Ultra-Wide Fix Version 1 when using my computer for other normal stuff (like Excell, Outlook Etc>) or is is not active when SKYRIM is not playing or shut down when I reboot? 3. What do I do to go back to normal resolution for a short while, just change the ini file? Do I also have to change the fix settings?

Now that I have played with it a little I see how it works, I was able to switch back to one monitor and learn the spells and read the books just fine and then go back to full surround with no problems. The first time I enabled it I just went "Wow" and then played for a few hours 8) I am looking forward to the next update but it works just fine right now and it has made the game very playable. As I noted, no crashes, all is smooth with all settings maxed except AA.

It's not prefect, but it works well enough. If worst comes to worst, disable the fix and run the game on a single screen, create, save, log back in with multimon. Though, I couldn't be bothered.

Play on one monitor with this setting at like 1000. Shadows look amazing and sharp! Leave it at 1000 and they look better, but not nearly as good. I found the best comprimise is about 2000. WHile still not as good looking as on 1 monitor, they are a hell of a lot better than the "ultra" 8000 setting. Also changing the iShadowMapResolution (there are 3) to 4096 improved them, but the distance made the biggest difference.

In fact, my frames are up overall. This is an x64 only fix, and is common to do. You can do it in the registry as well, and in some cases it can be enabled by entering some flags into a shortcut's command line string. You CTD or BSOD?

"Assuming you are tied of the tunnel vision in the game, and want to adjust your field of view to something more common to shooters (and useful on widescreen monitors), load up a saved game and hit the tilde key (~). That brings up a console overlay (hit tilde again to make it go away) that you can type into. Enter something like: fov 85 ...and hit [enter], and you can immediately see the fov is adjusted.

You didn't mention whether or not you were using Crossfire, but I was and had the exact same issue. I pulled my second card and everything works fine now. It's likely a driver issues, so, you can either disable crossfire or wait for new drivers...

There is no place to unselect that I can see. My only choices are "OK" and "another file". I do see a file called TESV back up in there so I am wondering if I delete the .exe file and change the name of the BU file to TESV.exe? Update, I tried that. I cut the TESV exe filer out (I still have it) and I changed the name of the back up file that seems to have been created when I originally ran the 4Gb patch app but I still get an error message "Failed to start, Error code 5" when I try to start SKYRIM.

Joined: 20 Jun 2010, 04:19 Posts: 137	I'm going to have to correct myself and agree with the guy from X pages ago - the game is basically unplayable without a working map. You're OK at the beginning, since everything is close by, but once you actually need to try to plot a course and navigate the terrain, you're screwed. I mean the game is awesome, so by getting lost I found some awesome stuff, but trying to get to the Grey Beards from Whiterun was impossible without knowing how or where to get around or through the mountains. And worse, the map maker is completely broken in triple screen. Helifax, which is your latest fix that has a correct map option?

The resolution appears to be correct at 5760x1080 without stretching. Interestingly, the in-game menus are centered, but the splash screen is stretched (vert-), cutting off some of the menu and graphics. *Attempted to modify the .ini to set custom resolution, and modified profile to start from TESV, bypassing the config section.

This also happens with any menu items, anything near the left side is not being transferred to the left monitor. I'm a new eyefinity user so I'm not sure what's normal and/or if there is something wrong with my setup? Or is this one of the issues Hayden is looking into? Thanks!

But ATM, CF+eyefinity appears to be broken. If anyone has discovered a solution to this in the 60 pages of this thread, please let me know... The game shows great promise for eyefinity. It is picking up correct resolution, and FOV stock settings look good. I can walk around inside, on low settings with a reported 27-30fps, but there is lots of intermittent lag. Map is working and spans three screens beautifully. Default menu is centered, but when picking up items, those menus are stretched and cut off. I suspect hayden's tool will fix this, but I need to get crossfire working.

Found Hayden's menu fix which is great... but any word on how to get the 3D models to show up properly in the inventory? This is particularly important for book type items since they are not readable at all right now... Also, is the game capped at 60 fps or something? Not sure how benches are going over 60 fps when mine is pegged at 60 as if vsync is on. Of course the popular iPresentInterval = 0 'fix' does nothing for me. The [H]ardOcp performance review said they did not change any ini settings yet they were able to get over 60 fps.

I can get Skyrim to run in eyefinity mode by hitting th defult and it autosetting me to my eyefinity resolution. But, it runs at about 2 frames a second. I can run the game almost flawlessly on a single monitor never dipping below 40, average of about 60 fps. I turned off all aa and the like as well. Anything to try? Also changes that I make to the skyrim .ini don't seem to actually take effect, any fix to this? Any help is appriciated. I had something similar. I had to disable crossfire to get eyefinity to "work".

Here are my results so far. The 0.1 fix on the Skyrim report is great. I can't wait for fixed book reading and a working map. I play @ 3840x990 windowed or 4032x1024 full screened w/ bezel compensation on SLI GTX275's (280.19) and a 4.2ghz i7 920. The game runs smooth nearly 100% of the time at 45+FPS on High-Ultra (NoAA, 16xAF, High radial blur, shadows and Decals, All water reflections, and view distances turned down to around 75% of Ultra's preset, +High distant objects). If I drop down to High with noAA, or medium it never drops below 60FPS, and usually hovers around 70-90 with vsync off. Judging by system power consumption and temperatures I'd say the 275's are maxed out, probably near 100% usage. Previously only furmark could draw this much power and push my cards near 80C with the fans turned up to 100%.

Crossfire/eyefinity is broken and crossfire setups are probably a good half of eyefinity rigs. Thanks for getting me to waste $60 on a title I probably won't be able to enjoy in eyefinity until December, or ever.

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 00:36 Posts: 47	Hi Thales, when I use the 4 Gb patch.exe and then navagate to the TESV.exe file and select it I then get a message that says "execcuatable successfully patched". There is no place to unselect that I can see. My only choices are "OK" and "another file". I do see a file called TESV back up in there so I am wondering if I delete the .exe file and change the name of the BU file to TESV.exe? Update, I tried that. I cut the TESV exe filer out (I still have it) and I changed the name of the back up file that seems to have been created when I originally ran the 4Gb patch app but I still get an error message "Failed to start, Error code 5" when I try to start SKYRIM. What am I missing? Just an update to close this issue. Thales suggested that I go into Steam and Verify integrity of game cache. I loaded the back up exe file and did just that. Steam found a bad file and reveried and now all is running normally again. I am running at 60 to 70 fps with no AA but everything else maxed ate 5760 X 1200, GPU useage runs between 60 to 80% on both 580's. No crashes, I have now played for about 10 hours and no crashes. I would like to make two comments: 1. Thales and everyone on here has been so helpful and the fix I am using makes the game very playable in surround mode. THANK YOU! 2. I would not try the memory aware mod or patch unless you feel you really have to. It clearly broke my ability to start the game. _________________ CPU i-7920 DO @3.6 Ghz, PSU Corsair AX1200, GPU's 2 EVGA GTX 580's in SLI Surround, Monitors 3 Ea Samsung 245T's 24" @ 5760 X 1200, Storage, Boot Drive 120 Gb OCZ Vertex 2 SSD, Program drives, 2 Ea 300 Gb V-Raptors in RAID 0, Storage drive, WD RE3 1 TB, M

Looks like this: Some sort of combination of bad resolution and tearing is what it looks like to me. I have no idea how to fix this, I've tried both the latest stable and the latest beta driver from nvidia, I've tried different graphics settings and resolutions. Other games, like BFBC2 works fine. The menus in Skyrim (and the loading screen), even though stretched since I haven't downloaded the fix yet, looks just fine. Anyone got any ideas before I throw in the towel on this one? Running double GTX 570 for the record.

I had 0 crashes since then and I played for hours. Thanks a lot for that hint.

Can you please share with me how you made the text in the books to stay...I think by introducing the offset, the text is moved to the right (of the pages from the book) but I cannot find the exact address that contains the value which control this... _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

This also happens with any menu items, anything near the left side is not being transferred to the left monitor. I'm a new eyefinity user so I'm not sure what's normal and/or if there is something wrong with my setup? Or is this one of the issues Hayden is looking into? Thanks! Are you using bezel compensation ? but any word on how to get the 3D models to show up properly in the inventory? This is particularly important for book type items since they are not readable at all right now... 3D models and books have been fixed by HaYDeN, these will be included in the next version of his fix. *twitch* Dying for a book fix. *twitch* Must stop pressing refresh on the detailed report... *twitch* HaYDeN will release the new version of the fix soon, books are fixed now.

We can do character creation on one screen if needs be, the icons not relating correctly to the 3d map isn't a problem because fast travel still works fine and the map is still usable. If we need to examine a 3d model like a claw or something, pressing C while the inventory item is selected still works reasonably well. I couldn't care less about the loading screens being squished. In your own time Hayden but don't stress too much about it needing to be perfect.

Hrm, if that WSGF monitor stand comes out, that might do the trick :D Helifax, if i dloaded your trainer and ran that command, would it fix the books if i was running the hayden fix? _________________ Asus P8P67 Pro, I7 2600k @ 4.6Ghz, 8gb, 250GB SSD/ 4TB Mechanical, Modded GTX 780TI, 3x AOC 27" IPS 5760x1080

From here, open the Steam web browser and simply google the name of the book you want to read. The Elder Scrolls wiki should have all the text there. :)

Yet, Elder Scolls Oblivion was rated as Gold by AMD for eyefinity support. http://support.amd.com/us/eyefinity/Pages/eyefinity-software.aspx Has bethesda scaled back their eyefinity support, or is this something that will be addressed in the future?

For me the map is more of an issue. Without the 3D terrain corresponding to icons, and most important, without a working map marker (for some reason it's way off where you place your mouse), you can't plot your way, which IMO is a big part of exploration. Finding or navigating around mountains and streams, etc.

Switching back from desktop to 3D mode led to a "out of memory error" or taking screenshots made CTD happen even faster. Since patching with "Large Adress Aware", it is all gone. I had 0 crashes since then and I played for hours. Thanks a lot for that hint. ++ Same exact thing happened for me. As a nice side effect, I can now take screenshots without any hitching in-game, which has never happened for me in any game.

From the popularity of this thread and Bethesda's past I would hope they were going to address this issue. Skyrim is the Creation engine where Oblivion and FO3 were still using the Gamebyro engine, and while they both worked in triplehead, they had some issues. They weren't as broken as this though (although I didn't play FO3 on launch, I waited a few months for it to go on sale). From the looks I would say creation is just a more advanced version of the gamebyro engine. The map is also different in skyrim. They probably had to rework some things which would explain the poor support on the initial release. Unfortunately they were probably trying to push the game out on time or as early as possible.

Some elements of the UI yes:) but not all:) If you want to change for your resolution go to File->generate trainer and just change the values that look like Resolutions EX:1680 and 5040. The other values must not be changed or it will break the UI and even the game:) _________________ WideScreen Fixer... Fixes your Surround problems to give a gorgeous 3D Surround Experience!

If the process is opened and it should hook to it. I also use a desktop shortcut. The drive shouldn't matter also. After the table has been loaded and the game started try to hit "-" & "+" and see if the HUD is rescalled.

Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 07:13 Posts: 108	[quote]For those who have eyefinity working (minus any menu fixes), what drivers are you running? I get 3-5fps with eyefinity when I disable my crossfire and put details on low. Should be getting much more than that. I have seen videos of eyefinity working well, so it must be my drivers. I am on ccc 11.10 and drivers dated 10/12/11. I am using an HD 5870 @6000 x 1080 (so HaYDens fix is set @ 2000) with 11.10 driver, ultra settings with all distances reduced to 75%, AA off, AF x16 and fov @75 - the only issue that remains is the Book reading. I have a 4th monitor for Elder scrolls Wiki to read books, etc. My FPS is 35 average, which is entirely enjoyable to play. I even rolled the driver back to 11.9 at the beginning of this whole eyefinity 'fix' situation to make sure that my issues were not driver-related. Use Revo uninstaller and COMPLETELY remove CCC and driver then re-install if you think it may be driver. Thanks for this information. I just spent 3 hours doing extensive debugging of my system with the new 11.11 drivers released today. Disabling system services, devices, trying at different details, in both crossfire enabled and disabled, with Radeon Pro profiles ,adn without, and multiple detail levels across eyefinity. This with 6850x2. There is definietly something wrong. Crossfire is out of the question for this game and even when enabled, it doesnt scale well with the game, showing 50-70% utilization. Eyefinity on a single 6850 should be able to run at some level of detail, but that is not my experience. Sometimes I was able to get fluid framerate outdoors walking around, but it would hang sometimes, and I got a couple ctd. The game runs really well with a single 6850 with most ultra details checked at 1920x1080, but I just cant get eyefinity with a single 6850 to work. Leads me to wonder if there is something wrong with the vram of the card (perhaps it was never taxed by other games), or if 1G vram is not enough for eyefinity? (Although there are youtube vids of eyefinity with a single 6850..) I built this system to play AAA blockbuster titles in eyefinity and its coming up short. Crossfire doesnt work, and may never work with skyrim, although it is impressive with other titles. Should I send back and sell the cards and get a 6970? If I get a better card, it really wont effect my single monitor play at all, as a 6850 runs it on mostly ultra at a high frame rate. And there seems to be no guarantee that I'll get eyefinity working, so upgrading to a better single card could be a waste of money and short my performance on other titles. What crap. What little play I did see in eyefinity looks amazing. Going from supported with Oblivion, to not supported with Skyrim is lame. This is flagship technology. Are consoles going to kill eyefinity?

For some reason it wouldn't work at the start but after running Haydens injector, then playing, then quiting out, closing the injector and running the code, it works. But I might wait until Haydens, as like someone earlier mentioned, playing it stretched doesn't work well with my monitor and setup. Thanks though! And Hayden, when is the word?

Joined: 16 Nov 2011, 00:46 Posts: 3	I just wanted to say thanks for everyone working on this, even made an account just to say so. Haven't tried the fixes yet because I've been waiting so eagerly for a fire-and-forget solution, but just WOW you guys are awesome. Oh, note to anyone: The game originally set my parameters to "High" with 8x anti-ailiasing, and when played in 5760x1080 (nVidia Surround) using just .ini tweaks(and mouse tweaks), the game did not look right at all: It seemed as though two aspects were being rendered, the "correct" 5760x1080 was ghosted under a horizontally stretched image at what I imagine was 1920x1080. I could see character models in the wagon as black shadows at the right scale, but the game was completely unplayable. After turning off anti-ailiasing everything looked okay(with the known problems you guys are fixing). I don't know if it was just me, but it's a very strange symptom that might be worth looking into. Anyone else have similar issues with anti-ailising? Since I bit the bullet and have been playing single screen I don't have much else to report, but it was very strange. Something is dreadfully wrong with the engine or drivers if anti-ailising doesn't respect the primary camera resolution. _________________ "Someday, someone will best me.

Now I can get 30-35fps on high/ultra settings with a single, non-overclocked 6850. Thats more like it... With some tweaking and overclocking I might be able to get a few extra frames. Hopefully AMD will release some crossfire drivers in next week or so, otherwise I am selling these and getting a single card. Live and learn...

Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 07:13 Posts: 108	Helifax, I just tried out your fix and it works great! Thanks very much for putting the work into this. The +/- thing to read books is functional, and also the map appears to look functional. These are the important things. It looks like you scaled the load screens a bit to look better, and stretched out the normal menus. I noticed that sometimes, after say reading a book, the esc menu comes up in its original scaling, butwhen closing and opening again it comes up stretched. Normal size is preferable for someone playing with desktop monitors. Is there a way to toggle or revert the load screens and menus back to their normal size without breaking anything else?

The map is broken, the loading screens are broken (no black background, text is extremly squished, character level bar also). Hayden took the time to fix all of these. There is no point in me trying to do this also:) When he will release his tool we will have 2 versions so each can use the one he finds the most appealing for him:) _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Ive had a tinker with the cheat engine and came up with a solution :) note I have put my menus on the left screen, but centered my items by finding these addresses. (this doesnt like it when you zoom in/doesnt fix books) ok so after youve loaded halifax's CT file, add these addresses. add: 01561070 value: 0 (item pos X) add: 01561078 value: 0 (item pos Y) add: 01561138 value: 1059790400 (item zoom) (or possibly camera Z????) and make sure the 'active' box is ticked on each :) cheers :D Az edit: oops put the wrong value in for item zoom should be good now :)

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 15:03 Posts: 16	Still waiting on Hayden's newer fix mentioned a few days ago with the centered HUD. I wouldn't mind another imperfect "quick and dirty" C++ solution that fixed a little more than the 0.1 version so long as my character can stop being illiterate. I don't care much for the horizontally-stretched HUD as my bezel-correction causes many things to be hidden behind the monitor bezels. The good thing about the stretched solution though is the map actually scales correctly with the items distributed properly. Is there a way you could have the stretched map but have all the little icons and cursor shrunken horizontally so they come out looking correctly sized and not stretched but they are still distributed correctly across the map?? The map is easily panned so bezels over top of it don't matter as much. The local map would probably have to be centered though.

No, you want them to be 1:1 otherwise it will feel awkward. Also, if you don't use the controller, disable it in options, the game will be more responsive it is is disabled. The controller settings are different altogether, since the sensitivity doesn't work on an XY plane, but on a curved dome

Got a question about the ratio guideline. The feel I'm getting from the game is the X is a lot faster than my Y. It seems really awkward which is why I was hoping to find a setting which would allow me to just change the X. If I don't keep it as 1:1 ration, it shouldn't cause any issue to the game other than the mouse going a bit weird? Thanks.

What is odd is that I can use halifax's 1st menu fix he released that puts the menu on the left side just fine using cheat engine but neither of the ones he just released work at all in cheat engine. By either me oening the fix directly or by opening cheat engine 1st it doesn't matter.

I don't understand why you get that error.. It doesn't matter how you open it. I usually double-click and select "Yes to all" load the game that's it I am using Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and Pro x64 on another computer. And works on both computers. It shouldn't be a problem to run the fixes even on x86 version of Windows.... So double check that you have Cheat Engine 6.1 and re-download the CT tables just to be safe and try again. _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

I have bezels compensation on, fixed item scaled correctly/centered, working books, working map (overworld and local) only problem is text is too large still on the skills, inventory and magick menus How did you get everything working? 71 pages of comments is really difficult to go through, especially since half of the information changes as you proceed. I am using Haydens fix, but it only works if bezel compensation is off.

I originally got a pop up with four buttons and chose "yes to all" and it would attach to game when I would run it. Now it does nothign. CheatEngine appears to load some malware that I uninstalled (it loaded some "startup timer" popup.) Uninstalling this may have influenced functionality of CheatEngine, because it is NOT working now.

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 22:00 Posts: 241	i had issues too. things to try: first make sure you extracted the files somewhere normal (not in the windows temp folder) set the program to always run as an admin, you can do this in teh compatibility tab, but make sure you do it for the PROGRAM, and not just the shortcut. So navigate to the programs exe to make the change. then just double click to open the file, do not open from the app if that didnt work you may have luck doing this: open the app as admin but dont load the files. drag and drop the files onto the app last resort try disabling UAC http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/4820/how-to-really-completely-disable-uac-on-windows-7/ (use the slider method, cause you can easily put it back) *also note that disabling uac can make your system more vulnerable to malicious attacks one last note, when i first tried this, i opened the file and got an error that it couldnt load. but looking at cheat engine i could see that it did actually load anyway.. you can see the resolution fix and book fix show up in the cheat window. from there i did the drag and drop method and the second time through i received no errors. _________________ Asus P8P67 Pro, I7 2600k @ 4.6Ghz, 8gb, 250GB SSD/ 4TB Mechanical, Modded GTX 780TI, 3x AOC 27" IPS 5760x1080

I got the game to work with crossfire on a single screen with some tweaks, although scaling was bad. With eyefinity, the game would hang and stutter, even on the lowest detail. When I removed the second card, that fixed things. Just disabling CF didnt help. I can get 35+ fps with high/ultra settings on 3 1080 monitors with a single 6850. I would recommend disabling/removing one card for now as the game isn't that graphics intensive. I havent given up however and am trying different things to get crossfire/eyefinity to work. I bought the second 6850 a couple weks ago from newegg and if I cant get CF to work with this title, I will send it back and get a 2GB card and sell my other 6850.

Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 07:13 Posts: 108	What level of precision can we expect from the Hayden/Halifex fixes? I have been playing around with both of them. I'm just in the first town with about 2 hours played total. I decided I'm not going to move on with playing the game until the fixes are mostly done. Both tools have pros/cons. Haydens tool maintains stock-like menuing (preferred for desktop monitors, imo), but the load screens seem to have been scaled down as a compromise. They show most of the picture, but the text is really compressed. The map looks stock-like. Picking up items, most of the picture is chopped off . Zooming in is broken because the item gets even bigger and you can see less of it. Books can't be read. Halifex's tool does not do any zooming on load screens, the text is readable, but the pictures are chopped. The start menu is chopped/stretched but functional. Menus are all stretched and functional as long as you are not using bezel compensation. Map looks functional although all the icons are expanded out of scale. THere is a +/- workaround that lets you read books. The skills interface is expanded in an appealing way. Right now, Halifex's tool is more functional, but less pretty. I've sure both of you guys are continuing to work and I thank you for your efforts. I would use either one without complaint, but I wonder what level of fix will eventually be provided? (I am waiting to play until most issues are fixed.) Is it possible to decouple the pictures from the text, or will we always have a compromise? If the picture is fully visible, does that mean the text will be tiny/unreadable? Is hayden's current compromise approach, of scaling the load screens down, the best we can hope for? I hate to be picky, but the game has ALOT of load screens that show items/lore that really adds to the game experience.

Since people really want the menus to look nice and etc:)) I will release tonight a new version that has a "key" bind that will make the menus on the center screen. BUT: -----Centered HUD----- - CENTERED HUD - LEVEL-UP menu works - Inventory works - Map DOES NOT PROPERLY WORK - Reading BOOKS (with the SAME warkaround) - LOADING SCREEN WOKS (even TEXTS) = Some WORK others DON'T -----Stretched HUD----- - STRETCHED HUD (NOT SO NICE) - LEVEL-UP menu works - Inventory works - Map WORKS - Reading BOOKS (with the SAME warkaround) = ALL WORK Like before you will have to toggle between modes. TBH I wanted to do this without toggleing but too many things are broken and need re-fixing only to break something else....So I'm in a loop. This way everyone can have either CENTERED HUD or FULLY Functional STRETCHED HUD:D Keep an eye on this thread for the release which will come along this evening...

First of all I am a software engineer, so I understand development, just am not familiar with their methods and what level of control they have. I understand that they are making a large time commitment for unpaid work and respect what they are doing. My question is not to belittle their efforts or gripe, just find out what level of limitations they are dealing with. I would ask the same questions of an engineer on my team to find out what level of confidence he has, how long it will take, how functional it will be. As I stated, I am waiting to play the game until fixes are made. If the graphics and text are always coupled, then I would not expect mcuh more than what Hayden has provided. IF that is the case, I can forge ahead now with Haydens fix (and use wiki to read books) or use Halifex's solution and just accept that I will not be able to appreciate load screens. If the text and graphics are not coupled, then a more sophisticated solution may emerge. Well to be blunt:)) THE DAMN ENGINE WAS MADE FOR SINGLE SCREEN:(( the way the rending is done.. you put an offset here only to find out that the DAMN text in the book is missing...and spend a couple of hours to understand why....which I still don't fully understand how is hanndled..that is why the toggle is there....If I fix the text in books, I begin to have some texture corruption problems... It's a damn vicious circle... I don't believe they will fix SKyrim for multi mon support anytime soon. Even with the source code I think they need to make some serious changes to the engine... Thanks, keep up the great work!

Joined: 16 Nov 2011, 05:18 Posts: 58	I keep getting the same error everytime I run the script under Cheat Engine 6.1. As a matter of fact I have always gotten the error from the first time I ran the script. However the script still seems to be working when I run the game even with the error. I run cheat engine. load the script. Get the error. I get ?? pn the resolution variables in cheat engine and the script boxes are unchecked. However I run the game and it loads with the large menus. I hit the + key and - key and it toggles back and fourth from very large menus to unreadably small menus. So I switch to the large menu and I load the first game that I can click on. Once the game loads though the modified menus in your script start working well with the + and - keys. If I alt tab out cheat engine shows the script boxes as checked with the proper resolution values in teh ?? I saw before. So the script is still working even though I am getting that error every time in cheat engine when I load the file.

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 00:36 Posts: 47	I have been running fine and my SLI set up with the beta driver from NV seems to be working well. Of course having GTX cards I cannot run in wide screen three monitors without two cards in SLI. I am not a fanboi for either brand but it makes me happy that for this builds latest upgrade I went with 580's. Hopefully AMD will sonn get a new driver out. I really think that Bethesda got stuck since they had made a big deal of "Available 11-11-11" so I will bet that they shiped it well before it was ready. I know little about writing code but I honestly feel that they have a breach of contract with customers issue and that a class action i could be brewing, just my humble opinion. Not saying it would win but that is something they would not want going on. It would be much easier for them to spend some development time providing a fix. I personally sure wish they had delayed launch of the P C version until it was ready. There is far more wrong with this port than just wide screen compatability. We should all make some noise I think, in forums ETc and perhaps they will decide to put forth a little more efort. I do know that if you guys here had not at least fixed enough to make it playable I would be angry enough to support some action against them. I know I continue to check back here for new INfo every day. As said before, great job and we all owe you a big heap of thanks. _________________ CPU i-7920 DO @3.6 Ghz, PSU Corsair AX1200, GPU's 2 EVGA GTX 580's in SLI Surround, Monitors 3 Ea Samsung 245T's 24" @ 5760 X 1200, Storage, Boot Drive 120 Gb OCZ Vertex 2 SSD, Program drives, 2 Ea 300 Gb V-Raptors in RAID 0, Storage drive, WD RE3 1 TB, M

This "charge the suckers full price for a lazy dragon-drop / point n port" culture needs to be opposed. (you see what I did there? Cause I have no idea... ) First off hear hear, the only comments that should be going out to folks like helifax and hayden are thank you's and great job's because they are spending their time and effort to do what the lame ass developers can't be bothered to do. We can only be thankful we are lucky to have dedicated people that try and fix this stuff and share it with us all. Secondly, did Bethesda really say SLI will "never be supported" because if so then they can shove it. I heard they said that they would never add support for Eyefinity/Surround for Skyrim and for that right there I won't buy anymore of their products. Because if that is their attitude for this game then I believe that will continue to be their attitude. Hell, if it wasn't for MMO's and folks like helifax and Hayden I would have ditched Eyefinity awhile ago and just gone to a large monitor/TV because the lack of support for Eyefinity/Surround and the "screw you" attitude of many developers nowadays is depressing and it is frustrating to sit around for days and weeks waiting for fixes or just breaking down and playing the game broken as it is. How sad is it that a lesser known developer like Volition can include full Eyefinity support for Saints Row the Third yet a big developer like Bethesda (or Activision or id Software) can't add support for it in their mega popular blockbuster game. If I was a game developer I would have a really small team that included Eyefinity/Surround support for a game. And yes, the consolification of the gaming industry needs to go away and quit suppressing the PC as a gaming platform. Or better yet, maybe developers just need to stop being such arrogant, lazy, greedy unimaginative wankers and stop dogging on the platform which has been around longer and innovates better than any console. Anyhow enough ranting I am looking forward to trying out your fix helifax and seeing what goodness Hayden is coming up with just as soon as AMD gets off their ass and gets a CAP out for Skyrim, because my 5970 is gimped until then and I might as well be playing Skyrim on my PS3.

I have verified the original file works just fine, but of course it's off center. I have tried generation my own for 5760x1080 with and without the game running. I have said "Yes to all" on both the original and the one I tried to create, so it should be loading just fine. I have also tried to edit the sections of the original with the number for my resolution, but it wont take effect in the game. I have tried everything I can think of man, sorry if this pulls you away from your game to answer this. EDIT: checking, and this one worked just fine. weird. _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 19:30 Posts: 14	Hmm i switched to 1 monitor to read a note (schedule for a patrole), now i switched back to surround. Now everything seems to tilt abit towards the left. Not to mutch, but just so mutch that its clipping Amount of money i get inn, and the quicksave text etc. Basicly everything that appears in the top left corner. Anyone got a clue whats happend? I went into the launcher settings and put it on 1920x1200 (got 3 cloned screens ingame), so i could read that schedule. After i was done, saved exited and put it to default, so it would detect my eyefinity setting. I've checked the skyrimPrefs that the resolution is set. Any help would be much apprisiated. -Mandy- Using Hayden's fix btw.

Using the RadeonPro tools I can see that both VPU's are being used, and I get much better framerate than before. Plus it is just obviously smoother. Before, with no tweaks, I was getting 20-25 fps with "High" settings. Now I am running on Ultra and getting 40-50 fps which is plenty fine. I set the shadows to Medium because many people are saying that this setting is bugged and works opposite to how its labeled. I find the shadows look much better. I also found that after I applied the >2GB fix (there are a few different ones) I have not had one single CTD. I was getting those every 20 minutes or so before Really, if HaYDen can get books and maps fixed, I will be in heaven.

To get it working with eyefinity, I had to remove one card physically, disabling was not enough. Count yourself lucky; a single 6990 should run eyefinity on ultra with very good framerate. You dont really need two of those for this game.

I tweaked my res settings to get it the best I can, but inevitably some menu / HUD elements get hidden behind the bezels. It would be great if an offset could be added such that the HUD and menus are rendered only on the viewable area inside the bezels.

My config is for 5760x1200, and the 3 keys are -, + and backspace on the standard keyboard, since I don't have a numpad if you need to modify it for your resolution, just open it with any text editor and replace all instances of "5760" with your horizontal and all instances of "1200" with your vertical! here's my version: http://pastebin.com/iJFUptNF save it as anything.CT (not anything.CT.txt !) jsut have the latest cheat engine installed and run it! thanks again helifax, but fuck cheat engine!

Edit the NEW.CT file in notepad and change the triple monitor rez's to your total rez (default is 5040), then divide by 3 and use that to change the single monitor rez (default is 1680). Do a "replace all" with each of those values. I had to tweak the single monitor number a little bit further, which I did by shooting arrows into a wall and changing the resolution until they aligned with my reticle. @Helifax, I'm not sure if this has already been discussed, but the "-" view setting for two-paged books works for me. However, single pages (notes, bounties, etc.) have about 40% of the text spilling off the left side of the paper and not shown. This happens with any Dark Brotherhood assassin's note, for example.

I wonder if doubling the size of the scroll model would do it? Im betting to "tell" the game we are opening a scroll and not a book is impossible... so I suppose another hotkey to switch it (like the hot key for books) is the fastest fix we can expect.

When i go to read a book it zooms WAY up to far and on is slightly visible on the left screen and i can only read a few words. i think changing all of the 5670 or whatever numbers in the file is not correct.

Anyway Please help me figure this out ! thanks you guys are the best ! Jayson The answer is not what you want to hear. AMD has yet to release any multi-GPU drivers/profiles for Skyrim yet which means ANY multi-GPU solution will have issues. Even just one 6990 may act up since it is multi-GPU and Skyrim currently hates multi-GPU. We're all waiting for 11.11 CAP2 (I use CrossFire 6950, but am currently only using one). I did not have much like with the DLL fix, but here is something to try: http://www.overclock.net/t/1164849/skyrim-crossfire-issues-complete-list-of-known-fixs-here-11-11-drivers-and-11-11-cap-out-now-link-inside In this forum, in the very first post, there is a link to a DLL file that you can drop inside of the skyrim folder (same folder as the TESV.exe) and it may help. Like I said, it didn't help my CrossFire much, but it is worth a try. There may also be another fix in that post you can try. However, his first post does state this: FAQ Q. "I have a 6990, or two 6990's, why is my scaling SO BAD?!" A. Simply put, I don't know. This is something on ATI's side. Honestly, I think until AMD puts out another driver or CAP release, you're screwed :( _________________ Main Box: 3x Dell U2311h 23" Monitors, Intel i7 2600K @4.3Ghz * ASUS P8Z68-V Pro * G.Skill 16Gb DDR3 1866 * ASUS HD6950 DCII 2gb Eyefinity 6 + Sapphire HD6950 2gb Dirt3 Edition [6970 Shader Unlocks, CrossFireX]

Joined: 17 Nov 2011, 11:27 Posts: 29	I tested the solution from Halifax and Heyden for Skyrim UI with my setting of 6 screens and it works almost perfectly. Only troubles is with the books. It seems the Numpad- key squeeze the menu but not the book display. I use the 5760.CT provided to make all this work and the map works fine. There is another small problem with the dialog selection where they are cut down a little before the end of the line but all in all I can live with that. The books issue is more problematic though. Notably for new recipes, I can't read them at all... Anyway, thanks for these tweaks and your hard work :)

This also could be a driver issue with Nvidia or engine, but I'll speculate it's a problem with drivers since it is so drastic. I have tried every fix regarding crossfire performance on the web. All recent versions of ccc drivers 11.9, 11.10, 11.11, associated caps, the "shady" driver, the .dll fix, multiple settings in ccc, RadeonPro profiles, and others.. Being very careful to fully clean and use driver sweeper between tests... I can get crossfire to "work" with a single 1920x1080. The best the fixes provide is to eliminate a hang in the load screen and get around the Ctrl-Alt-Del trick that you have to employ when framerate unexpectedly drops upon changing locale. The problem is that scaling is still very poor. RadeonPro shows both GPUS averaging 50%, sometime a bit higher. In game framerate on ultra ends up being the same as with single card, so its not worth going through all the fixes, just to eliminate the C-A-D fix. Performance sux. And of course, CF eyefinity is completely borked, thats when you get the 1FPS issue. I am currently running memory tests on both my cards to rule out hardware issues. Some people report they get CF to work, try this fix or that, but I dont think they realize they are getting such poor scaling with CF. Only thing to do now is WAIT for AMD to respond with drivers. The community here has done such an amazing job fixing the game itself to work in eyefinity, now just waiting for AMD to fix the drivers so I can get great details and framerate! I am not aware of anyone stating that they are successfully running crossfire + eyefinity.

(was hoping to wrap your work in a script!) But it appears that there is a way to customize the interface. It seems possible that once you get the fixes complete that you could provide a way to run CE with a custom Skyrim UI. Perhaps a few checkboxes for various resolutions and an "launch" button. I saw a UI like this for DragonAge II. This would potentially eliminate all the difficulty users are having interfacing directly with CE.

vernacular	Post subject: This newer fix from helifax Posted: 17 Nov 2011, 19:24
Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 15:03 Posts: 16	This newer fix from helifax is pretty good. Just leaving things at the default "centered" configuration (which is greatly preferred): Map Good: Map works. Bad: When placing a marker on the map the dialogue is zoomed and the message doesn't display. Skills: Good: Centered with text appearing in the right places. Bad: Text is enormous, cuts off the bottom and very often overlaps becoming unreadable. Activating the "left" mode just throws all the text off to the left monitor while the items are in the center monitor. Magic and Items: Bad: Menus and items are zoomed. Having yet a 3rd mode just to align these to the left is not ideal. If the skills, magic and item menus were shrunken and centered this fix would be near perfect. It would only need one toggle for reading books. Multiple toggles becomes convoluted and a hassle to work with.

Though, I would dare to guess that so many here would be immensely appreciative if you were to release what you have now, and update when perfected... I can hardly imagine a reputation such as yours would be tarnished for such... quite the contrary! Whatever you decide, thanks again.

Did the previous fix cause problems? because it shouldn't have, I have tried bezel compensation when some others mentioned it.... worked fine. So for example for me 5760x1080 (NOT bezel compensated) and 5780x1080 (WITH bezel compensation)... the same still applies, 5760/3 or 5780/3 .. the resolution is not the same when bezel compensated. Basically.. if it doesn't work.. your not entering the correct details. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

So am I correct that you have a mode with centered UI, that has only one flaw, that you have to use a toggle to correctly read the map? Do the books and scolls work too? Are the load screens viewable/readable? Are inventory items chopped?

Joined: 04 Mar 2010, 16:46 Posts: 6	fully centered is the way to go, absolutely....I never liked having to look ALL THE WAY over to see my stats. It might be heresy to some, but single player RPG's need fully customizable HUD's the way some of the big MMO's do it. Perhaps as time goes on, we can get some sort of DARNifie'd UI for Skyrim. Honestly I can't wait for Hayden and Halifax to get their hands on the TESV Construction Set....are you guys contemplating further development of your sweet sweet awesome progress so far? Fully customizable HUDs preez? Thanks for all you've done so far!

Helifax you make me a very happy man!! I got eyefinity because of this game and you made it all happen. One thing that I notice that is very minor; comparing this patch with the previous version, the map icons are slightly bigger than before but its function is spot on. Please grant me this wish and allow me to donate something towards all the hard work you done on getting this game working.

All copies of skyrim use steamworks copy protection, but like all bethesda's that does not apply to anything but the LAUNCHER. the game itself is has NO COPY PROTECTION.

Launch the CT file directly (do not open CT 6.1 File->Open and select the CT) 2. Launch the game via direct executable (NOT via Launcher) This should work. The only downside is that some values are written to soon and the items in the inventory look a little squished. _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 07:13 Posts: 108	Helifax, thanks for the hard work, I made a donation. Game is working great now and its 10x better in 5760x1080. I tried adding macro support myself so that it would stretch before going to the map, and center when exiting map, but I wasnt able to get the tool I am using to differentiate between the standard '*' and '/' and the ones on the numpad. That would be icing on the cake, to have it automatically stretch before hitting 'm' and center when hitting tab. Maybe CE can do this? I have noticed the load screens seem to be going really fast, not sure why. I wonder if there is an .ini option that would let them stay up longer so I could decipher the small text. The load screen text is reallyyy small on a 22" monitor, which you may not have picked up if you are using a larger monitor. But still works great, just need more time to read the text.

Joined: 20 Jun 2010, 04:19 Posts: 137	Helifax's fix is awesome. Someone noted that the reticle becomes off-centered, but you can fix that by toggling the center/stretched modes; I think it happens when you read a book sometimes. Also, the fix breaks if you read a book and go into a mode that is different from the mode you were in before reading the book, I think. And finally, for me, I'm much more likely to CTD when alt-tabbing in game. Wasn't happening before (no CTDs since LAA fix).

Kayden	Post subject: I remember from the comments Posted: 18 Nov 2011, 07:24
Insiders Joined: 06 Sep 2011, 15:27 Posts: 213	I remember from the comments here, that some WSGF members that have either AMD or Nvidia cards, that they are experiencing low fps more so with AMD users than Nvidia. I spotted over at Skyrim Nexus, that Meritus has released a direct x dll replacement for dx9 to improve performance. Now, I wouldn't recommend anything I haven't tried myself and the areas I was experiencing 45fps has now jumped to above 60 on average, there dips but nothing past 37 and I have a few texture enhancements installed. The only thing I don't like is that water is now clear above the surface, I would have preferred that to stay the way it was or it could be something with my FXAA injection, either way I plan to make a comment on the forum about it. http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=123#content Here is a quick description of what he did: Many peoples asked about this .dll because there is .dll file like this one for F:NV. F:NV have its own d3d9.dll file that improves performance for it. Also F3 have d3d9.dll that improves performance, and Oblivion. However all .dll are for other games, This one is for F3 and this one is for Skyrim. This works with both Ati and Nvidia. It allows transparency AA so trees and grass will look much better if you have AA turned On.

Best Regard, Helifax this is for 5760x1200 using "[, ]", "" keys for centered, stretched and books. http://pastebin.com/pSCCjCuU while it fixes the scrolls it seems to slighly break some other things, like main menu text and console are squished in centered but console is fine on the LEFT when stretched, or did i mess some my edit again? edit: running *.ct file AFTER launching the game seemed to fix it slightly, but main menu is still stretched instead of centered also there's a new key added: Code:          &lt;Address&gt;TESV.exe+10A3D58&lt;/Address&gt;          &lt;Hotkeys&gt;            &lt;Hotkey&gt;              &lt;Action&gt;Set Value&lt;/Action&gt;              &lt;Keys&gt;                &lt;Key&gt;111&lt;/Key&gt;    <u><strong>            &lt;Key&gt;91&lt;/Key&gt;</strong></u>              &lt;/Keys&gt;              &lt;Value&gt;1740&lt;/Value&gt;              &lt;Description&gt;CENTER HUD&lt;/Description&gt;     what is the 91 for, is that alt+f10??

Joined: 18 Nov 2011, 09:38 Posts: 3	I dont have a top of the line computer, but i am running skyrim at 5760x1080 with a single ATI 6950 2gb and running around 30(+-)5fps no problem. The menu fix works alright. It doesnt work when i try to level up or if i wanted to create an alt char, i just leave the game, turn off one of my monitors and play the game at 1920x1080. After i level up, i log out, turn the monitor back on, and log back in and WHAMMO back to eyefinity. If people are having problems getting back into the game after alt-tabbing out, i find it works if i alt-tab back into skyrim 2x in a row, or select it on my main toolbar and then alt-tab back into the game. I want to thank everyone who has put time and effort into getting the menu's to work (at least playable) and hope to get a real fix from bethesda/steam (but not holding my breath) For those of you with 2x6990...is that really necessary? or are you just rubbing it in that you have $1500 worth of graphics cards? i am playing just fine with a single $250 card (unless 30ish fps isn't playable [is just fine for me])

Open the CT table and apply it (hit "YES") than the Texts are OK. If the menu at some point gets squished in the middle try GOING to Stretch Mode 1st and than to Centered HUD. It should fix it. I am playing in 3D Surround so for me the reticle is always off in 3D. That is why I use the nvidia Cursor. It is possible for the some things to be broken...

No, you will be able to choose between: 1- One toggle for going into map (only for this) and centered HUD. OR 2- No toggles and spanned (but not blown up) HUD. ;)

The problem is, that even in stretched mode, the map will display correctly (Icons stretched, but that's no major problem)... BUT I can't set an custom marker! No matter if stretched or centered HUD... The custom marker will go way off from where I put it. So my request: Is it possible to have your script in an version with centered HUD (and Book fix) only and toggle it between On and Off? Because the map works just fine out of the box without any fixes and must not be fixed! _________________ My Blog || YouTube Channel || Twitch Stream My PC || Game Screenshots Archive

I really appreciate that you have released each version as it got better, rather than waiting for the perfect one to release. Your fix works splendidly, and allows quick in-game solutions based on the players choice and preference. Such a response by such a person as you to such a sub par lazy port from Bethusda was worth as much to me as I paid for the game itself, and I delivered so in the Chip-in donation drive. I think the $1000 limit was too low... Everyone please put your money where your mouth is and show your appreciation for what was delivered without thought of monetary gain, as opposed to what was not delivered completely for monetary gain (Bethusda).

(link removed) I see helifax and Kayden is working hard, but I have to say the original files (using + and -) are muich better as this results: The map is difficult, as only streching works for world map and only centering works for detailed map (pressing 'L'). Also after pressing '-' on numpad the titles of the books is hard to read, which wasn't before. The old files work better for me, IMHO. (and I have to thank for these) I think, the file I use is based on 1024test.CT, I generate a trainer of it.

I actually really needed to examine this claw item to see the order of the symbols on it for opening a door, but I couldn't so I had to exit the game, then change to windowed, run the game again, load my save and examine the item, then exit, then change the settings back to triple-screen resolution, then start the game again, load my save, then I could finally open the door by inputting the correct order of symbols. Tried helifax's fix but it doesn't seem to do anything with the inventory objects nor does hayden's or am I using it incorrectly?

Even with your fix in place and working well, it would seem the the image for scrolls are smaller than that for books. As such the text on scrolls is scaled correclty but appears off center.

If you switch to a mode don't forget to toggle back to the center hud mode (by pressing the same key again). Otherwise you will be stuck in that mode!!! To add your custom Resolution open the FILE in NOTEPAD++ and search for 5230 and 1743. The first number replace it with your Eyefinity/Surround Width Resolution. The second number is the resolution of one monitor. For example: 5230/3=1743. DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE!!! Enjoy:) Best Regards!

Joined: 18 Nov 2011, 20:57 Posts: 12	Very nice indeed. Works just as you describe. I have noticed two slight things so far. After you alt tab out of game run your fix and alt tab back in. The fix dose not take effect automatically. I have to enter the map, or book mode and return before I get the centered Hub. Second sometimes when exiting the map I get the streched hub. Enter and exit the map a few times with the "m" key and the centered hub then returns. But such small things are hardly game breaking and i suppose thats just flakeyness in CheatEngine.

Joined: 18 Nov 2011, 20:57 Posts: 12	Also I note that running any other programs in the background while having Skyrim open seems to increase the likelihood of the view breaking. I can't keep explorer open and run skyrim + your fix at the same time. Close all background progs however and view break ups are much less. This seems to make sense to me given that your editing live memory data. I would say to all close down other running programs before you start.

I got problems with disappeared menue, after Switching back to the game... With or without Bezel Management. I guess this is due to wrong resolution adjustments!? I had this with hayden's tool, too, when I set any other value than the exact amount of one monitor. So what values do I have to change exactly in the .CT file? For 5040x1050 or 5240x1050? Oh and btw. my CheatEngine says that this "not a valid table file", though it executes it anyway. Had this with the old version of your fix, too.

It is when you use bow and arrow, the shot doesn't line up properly with crosshair/reticule, I tried switching modes but it doesn't fix the problem. I guess it may be because the text in the books have been shifted? This is not a problem with the previous fix Centered HUD+ Stretched HUD+ Book FIX.rar / NEW.CT, just a heads up. Thanks again for your great work! I'm still using Centered HUD+ Stretched HUD+ Book FIX.rar / NEW.CT. This new fix looks complicated :/ Has the crosshair for the bow been fixed?

Now I've tried both fixes, however both gives me shadow flickering that's not there one 1 screen. Is anyone else experiencing this? I get shadow flixkering in eyefinity that I do not get in single screen. I don't attribute this to the fix. C:UsersUSERDocumentsMy GamesSkyrimSkyrimPrefs.ini set fShadowDistance to 0 or 1000 set fInteriorShadowDistance to 0 greatly reduces most flickering. But that just eliminates a lot of shadows and produces a lot of pop-ins.... Helifax and Hayden, is there anyway to fix the shadows?

It can all be tweaked in your .ini file, but each person's setup will vary based on hardware. Tweak it to your heart's content: http://donotargue.com/cfg-makers/skyrim/ but it appears the blocky thing may only be with triple view... some contradicting discussion about that. You can get results with shadows, water, and even ambient occlusion (which makes things look really great with a subtle effect). Yep, Bethesda detuned this engine to run on Nintendo it seems.

Joined: 09 Feb 2006, 00:23 Posts: 48	New Version is out!! It contains: - Centered HUD (by default) - Correct map + Correct POSITION OF CUSTOM MARKER - Map will automatically switch to correct mode when pressing the default M key. - Exiting the map by pressing the M key will automatically switch to CENTER HUD - Workaround for BOOKS and SCROLL reading (using the B key prior to hitting ENTER A BOOK) - Pressing the B key will automatically switch to CENTER HUD, after reading a BOOK - Legacy STRETCHED HUD binding to 0 key on normal keyboard (NOT NUMPAD) !!!!!!!!!!!!! If you switch to a mode don't forget to toggle back to the center hud mode (by pressing the same key again). Otherwise you will be stuck in that mode!!! To add your custom Resolution open the FILE in NOTEPAD++ and search for 5230 and 1743. The first number replace it with your Eyefinity/Surround Width Resolution. The second number is the resolution of one monitor. For example: 5230/3=1743. DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE!!! Enjoy:) Best Regards! Helifax wHAT ABOUT: function myattach(timer) if getProcessIDFromProcessName("TESV.exe") ~= nil then object_destroy(timer) openProcess("TESV.exe") sleep(1000) autoAssemble(init_script) sleep(500) writeInteger(myAdd1,1680) writeInteger(myAdd2,1680) writeInteger(myAdd3,1680) end the three 1680s??? also the latest fix is def more broken for me, after pressing M, the hud often becomes streteched instead of centered and i have to press M a couple of times for it to cycle back to centered.

I don't know what we're supposed to be tweaking, I left the settings all the same on Ultra, the flickering only happens in 3 screen mode, going back to one screen with the same settings has no flickering.

Joined: 17 Nov 2011, 11:27 Posts: 29	So I was fiddling around with last version of Halifax fix and as always the recommended settings might work fine for 3 screens display but not really for 6 screens. To add your custom Resolution open the FILE in NOTEPAD++ and search for 5230 and 1743. The first number replace it with your Eyefinity/Surround Width Resolution. The second number is the resolution of one monitor. For example: 5230/3=1743. DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE!!! So for this I used 5760 to replace 5230 and 3840 to replace 1743, ie the double of one screen size so that it takes in account the double of the height size from the 3 screens display. It works fine now except for the books which I still can't read at all but everything else is finally scaled just right!!!

I want to lean back and just enjoy ;) Is there any way to have a fix without the need to switch between modes all the time? or do i just have to cry now and play in single-monitor? :( again, thanks for the great work so far! I have a workaround of sorts for you if this is what you want to do. Using this handy mod ( http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=655 ) you can map whatever keys you like to your gamepad. Even more beneficial is the ability to map two buttons to one function. For example, you could set it so that when you hold left trigger and press Y, it presses * for you on the keyboard. And when you press right trigger and Y, it presses / for you. Really useful as you won't need your keyboard :)

It contains: - Centered HUD (by default) - Correct map + Correct POSITION OF CUSTOM MARKER - Map will automatically switch to correct mode when pressing the default M key. - Exiting the map by pressing the M key will automatically switch to CENTER HUD - Workaround for BOOKS and SCROLL reading (using the B key prior to hitting ENTER A BOOK) - Pressing the B key will automatically switch to CENTER HUD, after reading a BOOK - Legacy STRETCHED HUD binding to 0 key on normal keyboard (NOT NUMPAD) !!!!!!!!!!!!! If you switch to a mode don't forget to toggle back to the center hud mode (by pressing the same key again). Otherwise you will be stuck in that mode!!! To add your custom Resolution open the FILE in NOTEPAD++ and search for 5230 and 1743. The first number replace it with your Eyefinity/Surround Width Resolution. The second number is the resolution of one monitor. For example: 5230/3=1743. DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE!!! Enjoy:) Best Regards! Helifax wHAT ABOUT: function myattach(timer) if getProcessIDFromProcessName("TESV.exe") ~= nil then object_destroy(timer) openProcess("TESV.exe") sleep(1000) autoAssemble(init_script) sleep(500) writeInteger(myAdd1,1680) writeInteger(myAdd2,1680) writeInteger(myAdd3,1680) end the three 1680s??? also the latest fix is def more broken for me, after pressing M, the hud often becomes streteched instead of centered and i have to press M a couple of times for it to cycle back to centered. these 1680 are predefined values for the center screen. THey are taken into account only if you load the CT table before the game. Like I said, if you open the CT table and just replace any 5230, 1743, 1680 with your actuall resolution values it would not matter. These 3 values are written just one time, when the CT is loaded. Afterwards they don't matter. As for the MAP: Enter the map by pressing M EXIT the map by pressing M if the map is exited by pressing Tab the hud is broken!!!! Just think it as a toggle! And yes lets make a petition to bathesda to give us the source code:))) so we can properly do this from the game:)) _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Best Regard, Helifax Thank you for your hard work so far Halifax. I noticed a problem with the Center_Stretched+Book_Fix.rar. It is when you use bow and arrow, the shot doesn't line up properly with crosshair/reticule, I tried switching modes but it doesn't fix the problem. I guess it may be because the text in the books have been shifted? This is not a problem with the previous fix Centered HUD+ Stretched HUD+ Book FIX.rar / NEW.CT, just a heads up. Thanks again for your great work! I'm still using Centered HUD+ Stretched HUD+ Book FIX.rar / NEW.CT. This new fix looks complicated :/ Has the crosshair for the bow been fixed? Are you using the ingame reticle? and when shooting an arrow the reticle is shifted to the left? I never saw this. But then again I have disabled the ingame reticle and using the nVidia crosshair when I play in 3D so it is possible... EDIT: I tried it with my latest fix and I saw no problem with the crosshair and bow targeting system :D The crosshair and the bow aim are perfectly aligned. Be sure that you don't have any other tweaks in the ini files that might produce this output. _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 15:03 Posts: 16	I still can't see the inventory items displayed correctly with any of these fixes. The objects go off-screen and behind bezels. I actually really needed to examine this claw item to see the order of the symbols on it for opening a door, but I couldn't so I had to exit the game, then change to windowed, run the game again, load my save and examine the item, then exit, then change the settings back to triple-screen resolution, then start the game again, load my save, then I could finally open the door by inputting the correct order of symbols. Tried helifax's fix but it doesn't seem to do anything with the inventory objects nor does hayden's or am I using it incorrectly? Nevermind, I figured it out. I was generating a trainer and trying to use that, but that breaks the cheat table for some reason. Now there are new issues though. When I use the M key to enter the map everything is stretched out and the cursor is only active on the left screen so I can only click the stuff in the west, when I exit the map with TAB, then re-open it with TAB then S it appears correctly. I don't think the M key is changing it fast enough. Am I the only one experiencing this? I've changed all the resolutions for bezel-corrected 6000x1080. That means changing the two related values to 2000 and 6000, right? 2000 being the width of one screen and 6000 being the width of all. Also, with the default centered HUD the menus are right but other things are all horizontally-smooshed. This includes the stamina, health, magic, and navigation bars as well as the identifying text when you look at a door or object. Am I still doing something wrong? I was really hoping the M key switch would work and considered changing the hotkey to M myself before helifax released the newer fix.

Should you set up the initial resolution trought the launcher to some specific nr or do annything else?

The only glitch is the items displayed in my inventory are darkened. At least everything is where it's supposed to be and I don't have to Alt+Tab to activate it. Good stuff, Hayden. I know why they are darkened, I did think this to myself but dismissed it - as if maybe its adding atmosphere cause I was in a dark area. I shoulst fix that right now. Basically I was trying to take a shortcut :) I took the liberty of doing a comparison because I wasn't sure myself, but yeah, it looks like there's something weird going on here with darkened objects: Seems you already went and fixed that within minutes, lol. I also cannot set a custom width and height. When I set it to 6000x1080 and start the game all the HUD elements and menus are invisible. I can't change the HUD overlay to spanned it's greyed-out no matter what I check or uncheck. When I fast travel the mapfix isn't disabled when I reach the new area until I hit TAB, but that's not a big deal because I have TAB macro'd to my mouse since I'm always hitting TAB in this game. Oh well, close enough. You seem the perfectionist type so you'll probably be tweaking it more regardless.

Joined: 09 Feb 2006, 00:23 Posts: 48	these 1680 are predefined values for the center screen. THey are taken into account only if you load the CT table before the game. Like I said, if you open the CT table and just replace any 5230, 1743, 1680 with your actuall resolution values it would not matter. These 3 values are written just one time, when the CT is loaded. Afterwards they don't matter. As for the MAP: Enter the map by pressing M EXIT the map by pressing M if the map is exited by pressing Tab the hud is broken!!!! Just think it as a toggle! And yes lets make a petition to bathesda to give us the source code:))) so we can properly do this from the game:)) ah, i see, i was pressing M during loading screen to stretch hud so i can read it on right monitor, thanks, but I think we all can agree while helifax was a great temporary work around for the last week, HaYDeN is the true master of ellegance! and we greatly thank both of you!!! now let me get to the other 50 things i hate about the game *check nexus*

It seems they're flickering between their near and far LOD's quite a bit, making them a might jittery. I think the shadows are jittery because they are moving with the sun, you can see them move roughly every 5 seconds, thats when i notice them jitter. Maybe if you could find an option to update the shadows per second, it would look smoother. In Skyrim.ini, add under display fSunShadowUpdateTime=0 fSunUpdateThreshold=2.0 fShadowBiasScale=0.6 _________________ I7 920, ex58ud3r, crossfire 5870, 3x27" @ 6016x1080, 6gig corsair

I'm amazed at what Hayden and Helifax were able to accomplish considering how hampered they've been by Bethesda. You have done what Bethesda should have done, and you have both done it amazingly well. I just donated to the Chip In; I really wish I could afford more, because the work that's been done is amazing.

Although I am having trouble with Hayden's latest fix which is why I've come out of lurking; it crashes Skyrim to the desktop pretty much instantly (seems like timtl is having the same problem). I'm using Windows 7 and my resolution is 6048 x 1080 - I tried using 5760 but that didn't work either (I have altered the .ini). I set to default video settings but that didn't help. I am using the memory fix mentioned earlier in this thread; I don't know if that's the problem, there doesn't seem to be any spike in memory use. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

Additionally - you could try injecting AFTER you have started Skyrim, if your machine has really poor disk access the areas being patched might not be loaded by the time it comes to write to the process. Altho if the patch inst placed quick enough you get squished loading text. and I have no idea if it works on non-english localizations - the hotkey's might not. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

Try "AutoDetect resolution" if that doesn't work try to fill in manually the resolution in his fix. There is something wrong with the game engine and at some resolutions it breaks and no menus are displayed... First try a non bezel resolution. After try to migrate to a bezel corrected and fill in manually the resolutions. _________________ WideScreen Fixer... Fixes your Surround problems to give a gorgeous 3D Surround Experience!

Using it on the main menu it crashes when I alt-tab back to the game and using it during gameplay it seems to crash whenever I try to use a menu.

The only real issue is on the map, if you scroll sideways, two areas at the very top (Winterhold and Dawnstar, at least, I haven't gone exploring up there) don't stay put and move around. Other areas that far north (to the left and right) don't move around, so not sure what's going on there.

Load screens, maps, books/scrolls, inventory, everything seems to work. 5760x1080 with completely stock exe and .ini. I may however be noticing the slightest reduction in framerate, although I can't imagine your tool adding anything more than negligible overhead. However, my single 6850 (waiting for crossfire) is already taxed on the high/ultra settings. The only "broken" thing in the game right now is the flickering shadows every 10s or so. I am going to play with the ini and see if I can solve it. Thanks hayden and halifax for your great work.

When I saw the wrong resolution greyed out I figured I needed to enter the proper resolution manually. However seems to work with auto detect without any problem. Now I just need more hardware power, a single 5870 cant run 5940x1200 on High without bad frame rates. Ill try medium later on and see if its a good balance. If not I think I will just not play for now till I can get a good hardware upgrade, id rather play the game on 3 screens vs once since its such a big point of Skyrim is to take the time to immerse yourself into the game. If I saw any bugs so far it would be the skill tree selection thing where your looking at the stars, where you click does not correspond to what you see. _________________ ViciousXUSMC on the Web - YouTube :: FaceBook :: Website

Joined: 18 Oct 2010, 21:10 Posts: 3	I just want thank both Helifax and Hayden for the awesome work you guys have done in getting this game to run in multi-monitor. My Skyrim experience has been much more enjoyable thanks to both of you. I have been playing with v2 of Helifax's fix since he released it. Haven't had any major issues just some minor annoyances on occasion like having to toggle a key a couple of times, but it works and makes the game very playable. I just tried Hayden's latest fix. It is near perfect as far as layout of the UI. I have encountered some issues, strange but rather funny ones at that. The first bug I encountered was when I was enchanting a weapon and exited out of the enchanting screen I found I was stuck in place. I couldn't interact with anything or move other than change direction. I could cast spells though. I used the coc console command to teleport outside of Whiterun and discovered NPCs and the dragon flying overhead had no animation. The dragon was flying shooting fire, but animations for movement were not working. After restarting everything, I loaded up another game zoned into Whiterun and found the guards there speedwalking. The other npcs were fine. It was just the guards. I have had the game crash on me a couple times in the past, but that's the first time I have ever seen the game do anything like this before. So far, that's the only issues I have noticed myself.

Start by put everything on High, turn off anti-aliasing, put antiscopic-filtering to x16. Turn shadows to medium or high. In advanced menu, put everything as high as it will go and turn on FXAA. This will look really good and give 30+ fps.

The topic start doesn't say ANYTHING about it, and all i read is "Thanks hayden/helifax for the great awesome fix you made". Even google comes up with squat if I google "Helifax skyrim fix". On top of that, the search function of this board is utter crap - if I would have had the possibility to seek for a users post history, there would be no problem - but no, you can only see in which topics a specific user contributed. The search funciton only gives topics, and I have to work through 100 pages of posts. Just my two cents, I've never had a forum/site's software piss me off this much.

I'm currently running Haydens fix 5916x1200 bezel compensated on 2x 570gtx's, 50+fps, everything on Ultra with AA at 4x, FXAA on, 16x AF, only change to the .ini was res and fshadowdistance (2000) and just wow... wow guys, thank you, thank you, thank you! You have taken a great game and great experience and made it a truly exceptional, immersive, experience. I payed Bethesda $60 for a widescreen broken POS and you guys have delivered the game as promised. The least any of us can do is tip you a few coin for your efforts. What many don't realize is that $5 bucks a piece adds up quickly when there are a lot of us. We have 1000's of dollars in games and hardware and we'll not neglect those of you that help us to enjoy the fruits of our labor.

Made the game playable for me so i wasnt stuck waiting :D you guys both rock, and im really enjoying the experiance of playing it ultra wide :) good job fellaz _________________ Asus P8P67 Pro, I7 2600k @ 4.6Ghz, 8gb, 250GB SSD/ 4TB Mechanical, Modded GTX 780TI, 3x AOC 27" IPS 5760x1080

The issue is to do with the menus - well obviously - but whenever a menu is about to appear (the main menu, or an ingame menu) the game crashes and the last log reads 'Skyrim thread exited'. I can get to ingame menus by waiting to use the injector until I've loaded a save. DVD Version, WIndows 7 x64

The only issue I have run into is related to what you had in v.02 where I read items in the inventory were darker, the issue is the Lockpick minigame comes up a whole lot darker then before, this isn't a inconvenience because there isn't a lot of detail to be had and the rest of inventory is perfectly fine. I've modified the hell out of my game so it could just be my settings as well. If you can dupe it, it's minor as far as I care. EDIT: Also when I alt+tabbed out to write this the inventory side bar and main hud (crosshair & compass) went to the left screen, the menu for saving and loading were the same at center but then spilled over to the left and right monitors by a little bit. No more alt+tabbing for me. )c: _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

Joined: 19 Nov 2011, 08:05 Posts: 11	Hello, Since Hayden's 0.3, I'm experiencing the same immediate crash to desktop as I have with Helifax's most recent solution when starting the game. Hayden's 0.1 works fine. Running 3840x1024. (3x1). Tried 3072x768 - same issue. Tried setting the resolution manually - no dice. Running Cat 11.10 no bezel comp. Here's 0.3's output - nothing out of the ordinary... + Searching for RUNNING Skyrim Process... + Skyrim process found... + Process opened successfully! + Executing ASM injection... + Allocating additional memory to process... + Generating Function call 1... + Function 1 written successfully... + Generating Function call 1... + Generating Function call 2... + Function 2 written successfully... + Patching Mouse Handler... + Patched Mouse Handler Successfully... + Patching Overscaling.. + Patched Overscaling Successfully... + Too close for missles, switching to guns (switching to hotkey mode) + Skyrim thread exited... we're done! Is there some kind of crash log I can enable to help solve this issue? It's interesting that both Hayden's and Helifax's crash exactly at the same point (immediately). Thanks!

Joined: 16 Nov 2011, 00:46 Posts: 3	Running Hayden's 0.3 - all I can say is it's freaking awesome. Been waiting for a fix with a natural feel so I can truly enjoy the game as it should be played. There are a few hitches, but nothing close to game breaking if you don't mind navigating skill trees with WASD. It seems the mouse handling patch or some related part of the engine thinks the monitor resolution is 2x, and starts at the left edge of my center monitor, the effects of which only seem apparent in the skill menu and when I try and mouse look during a conversation - left look occurs when the mouse hits the left edge of the center monitor, but right look occurs upon hitting the right edge of the right monitor - further, the mouse cursor is invisible on the right monitor. Again, awesome work - honestly I'd be happy if 0.3 ends up being the final version, but I'll cross my fingers that it isn't. :p (Oh, and I can see flame distortion through walls and other objects.... but that's mostly just funny.) _________________ "Someday, someone will best me.

That might be due to other mods already in place, but if it works it's a great tool. There is also a different Large Address Aware program to try if deemed necessary. I have read about Alt+Tab problems and find that if I MINIMIZE with Alt+Tab I can open back up w/ no issues if I hit Windows+Tab a few times until it shows game instead of blank black screen _________________

Remaining serious problems: - Skills screen still not fixed. (Mouse input doesn't match result) Remaining very low priority problems; - Blue either side of the loading screen still unfixed. (I don't consider it game-breaking) Possible additions: - World FOV and Hands FOV setting. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

No own FOV so to speak tho, it's very similar to the map basically, its an issue with it "registering" the 2D interface/input for the 3D interface -- make 2D correct and you break 3D and vice versa - I assume Helifax's fix had the same problem? _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

When the menus are used to select item, enchantment, soul gem, then press F to rename item, sometimes I get a total keyboard lockout where only ~ key works for dev console. I need to exit game and reload, and have had trouble naming enchanted items. I can't think of any other issues, it has been a wonderful fix. Near perfect, since I don't feel like I'm losing anything by playing in surround, like Bethesda should have done! In Bethesda's defense, even though the engine is underwhelming (to an extreme), the stories, quests, and maps are great. Those elements have topped Morrowind and Oblivion, even if the engine feels 3 years old.

What happens if you change FOV in console ? changes for both? gonna try it out... The whole point is so that you don't have to change it in the console, and it will persist no matter what - I personally noticed it defaulting on Loading or Quick travel. You should set it to what you desire it to be, as you would have typed it into the console, the default is 75 for the world and 65 I think for the hands, when you set it in the console, "FOV numf" it will change both hands and world to this setting. "FOV 90" in the console would be the same as putting 90.0 in both the boxes. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

Perhaps I am missing something, but the menus are now appearing at the flanking screens rather than the center one. (5760 x 1080) The map also moves all over the place when scrolling horizontally.

In trying Halifax's fix, it had a stretched skills menu, and I think the skills menu is the ONLY one that should be stretched. Even though its stretched across 3 screens, all the action takes place in the middle. Go ahed and stretch it, is my opinion, if that will get the mouse to work.

The map isn't rescaling automatically. Whether I access it from the menu or with the M key it's not distributing the icons properly until I manually hit - I'll be sticking with 0.3 for now I guess. Being able to change the FOV was a good idea though I was getting sick of typing "fov 85" every time I started the game.

As soon as I launch the game though the actual "world" is huge. It looks like I'm zoomed in somehow, and yet the menus look normal. Tried monkeying with everything I could and I'm stumped. Any ideas?

Download - this fix - version 0.4A and unzip it in your PC. Download - this fix - version 0.4B and unzip it in your PC. I have updated the Skyrim Detailed Report - upon testing the fix, it seems like it worked for everyone else using 0.4A, however only 0.4B works for me, not sure if it's progression based or something else causing the difference. 0.3 is still available of course if neither work, _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

It seems like the game supports it natively. I'have donated only 5$ for coders. Don't see it low. if every user that visits here donates 5$, the sum amount would be appreciated. Of course some people who has high wealth should donate more. Afterall , they make us enjoy our expensive rigs more. so just donate whatever the amount is.

Joined: 11 Jun 2011, 02:56 Posts: 28	The 0.4A runs perfect for me (at the moment). No glitches, no strange things. But the 0.4B it has some problems. When viewing the MAP, the position of the mouse cursor and the selected place dont' match themselves,so i have to select the places in a blind manner sensing where i'm at pointing. Then, when viewing the items menu, the menu is missplaced to the left screen (in version 0.4A is centered, like in version 0.1). Another thing (the most problematic) is when i enter to the skills menú. If i have leveled up, the games makes me answer what i want to level up (magic, life, resistance), and i can't select any of them cause the mouse cursor is on the left screen and the message on the center screen. So i cant select any of them, and the mouse cursor dont go to the middle screen. So i have to exit windows and close the TESV.exe cause in that part of the game the keyboard is not an option to use. As i said, the version 0.4A has no visible problems for what i tested. For now is perfect. I'm running three screens (1920x1080) at bezel correction resolution of 5900x1080. I want to thank you hayden for your work. You are the man!!! :) PD: Late this evening, i downloaded the version 0.4 in the game report. At that point, the versions 0.4A and 0.4B were not updated yet. So for the problem of unable to level up in the skill menú i have been playing the game this evening with version 0.1 (didnt know that 0.3 exists). But now, i entered the forum, and i can see that there is an update and you made 0.4A and 0.4B. So wow!!! 0.4A runs perfect! See you ;)

Joined: 11 Jul 2011, 00:24 Posts: 3	Hayden, I'm seeing different issues with both v4 fixes. With 4A fix the in game HUD and inventory is stretched for me not centered. In the skill tree the last skills on the left are stacking up on top of each other. With 4B fix the text on loading screens is being squeezed together. The map items are not static, they are scrolling with me and all the icons are only showing on the center monitor, the side monitors only display the landscape. Disabling the fix with the "-" key forces the map menu and icons to the left screen (the icons are still not static) and then leaves the center and right monitor only displaying the landscape. After playing with both versions I've figured out that either disabling the fix with the "-" key or enabling the fix with "+" BEFORE entering one of the troubling menus fixes the problem...seems the fix might be disabling or enabling it's self sometimes when it shouldn't be.

The Skyrim game supports Eyeffinity and Surround by default for being played at three screens. The only thing you have to do is edit the file SkyrimPrefs.ini (situated in My Documents/My Games/Skyrim) and edit the lines like this iSize W=5760 iSize H=1080 Or whatever is your resolution. Both 0.4A and 0.4B have messed up maps for me. I'm running in Surround at 5760x1080 using whatever default settings came with either program. However, 0.4A has loading screens with compressed text, while 0.4B has loading screens with correctly sized text. Wow, reading posts like this makes me thing that Hayed have to be mad with this.

The new fix is definitely triggering the crash as 0.1 was working well. 0.3 and both versions of 0.4 are crashing the TESV.EXE process the second they try to rescale the intro (menu). If I try to inject the patch after launching the game, it'll immediately crash TESV.EXE. I'd love to enable some kind of crash dump process to help diagnose the issue I'm encountering...

Insiders Joined: 06 Sep 2011, 15:27 Posts: 213	Actually neither work perfectly for me. with 0.4a - main menus is all in the center. the inventory menus are on the left screen but the 3d item is at the center and the other txt info is on the right hand screen. the loading screen is fine for the 3d model but the text is on the left hand of the screen and the compass is on the center. the skills menu shows the names clumped up on the left hand side. the esc menu and journal are fine. map is broken where it's all scrunched up, if i hit the hotkeys it just shifts to the left hand screen. with 0.4b - main menu the bethesda icon is on the left hand screen and the new load & etc are on the right the emblem is center like it should be. the inventory, esc menu, journal and skills are all fine. the loading screen is all back to center but the text for level and description is not sized right so it looks all scrunched up. the map is just as broke with this ver as 0.4a is. I will go back to 0.3, I had no problem there. Also everything for both of these were set to default nothing was changed, if you want me to try something specific HaYDeN feel free to ask. _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

Insiders Joined: 09 Mar 2011, 21:34 Posts: 88	I myself have an issue with all the fixes (from 0.1 up to the current ones) but I assume it is just me as I haven't seen anyone else mention this. I am using a res of 6048x1080 (which is bezel corrected), causing text and some hud items to be slightly cut off on the sides. For example, when the word "autosaving" appears in the top left of the middle monitor, half of the letter "a" is cut off. Another example is the stamina bar on the lower right being slightly cut off on the right. I assume that I am doing something wrong, would anyone know what that is?

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 06:34 Posts: 64	HaYDeN wanted to give an update on the various versions on my system. (ATI 5870) 0.4A - Worked flawlessly except for the map which had all the icons bunched on the center screen. 0.4B - Worked flawlessly. Both of course, minus the issues you had previously listed as known bugs (skill menu, etc). EDIT: Completely redid my Skyrim.ini and SkyrimPref.ini back to default, applied the large address aware patch, and now neither A or B is working right.... investigating. (0.3 works great) EDIT2: 1. Deleted TESV.exe and all ini files (both in my games/skyrim and in the actual skyrim steam folder) 2. Patched using steam. 3. Ran the launcher, created default ini files for Ultra /w No AA. 4. Updated my resolution in the default ini. 5. Ran the game WITHOUT a fix loaded then exited. 6. Ran the Large Address Aware patch. 7. Ran the game WITHOUT a fix loaded then exited. 8. Ran 0.4B of HaYDeNs fix and started the game, now it's back to working order! :) Apparently something odd happened and I needed to do a full reset.

What kind of crossfire scaling are your getting? I tried all the combinations of drivers last week and none of them got more than 50% scaling, if they worked at all. I recently installed my second crossfire card and skyrim didnt lock up, I wonder if there was a stealth patch?

The books and scrolls all look great. I have been following this thread every day and it seems like the crossfire/eyefinity rigs are having most of the issues now. I would think there would be a driver patch soon/ I am starting to plan my next builds and I have used both AMD and NV but with what I am seeing I will prob. stay with NV this time around. Are any of you going to be at CES?

Sometimes radeon pro will report usage of both GPUs at 70%, and will see a slight fps improve, but more often both are used less than 50% and fps drops alot. AMD said there is an upcoming driver fix. Given their prior release schedule, I give it 2 weeks minimum.

The game was published effectively unplayable (in my opinion) on multi-monitor. Within 24 hours Helifax had a good start on a fix with the Cheat Engine. Within 48 hours Hayden had his first standalone fix. Both made the game playable, albeit with issues. In only a little over a week their fixes have been refined to the point that they're now addressing the small side-issues. Unbelievable. I stand in awe. I've donated to the ChipIn and I encourage others to do the same. These folks deserve every penny.

Joined: 01 Jul 2010, 20:01 Posts: 77	I've got an issue with .4a and it moving the HUD to the left monitor when I sneak with CTRL (default crouch). I prefer the centered HUD, but with my bezel correction (96 pixels), the right side of the "P" menu is 'behind' the bezel, this is not game breaking though. edit: Tried .4b. Had no cursor on the map; made the map mostly useless. There were other alignment issues, things getting put partly on the left monitor, loading screens squished, but spread out over 3 screens. I went back to .3. This seems to be the best for my setup, I hardly ever have issues with anything. 3840x980 window, 4032x1024 fullscreen.

Joined: 21 Nov 2011, 06:05 Posts: 1	Registered here just to say thanks to HaYDeN, Helifax and everyone here for making Skyrim playable on multi-monitor setups. I will definitely be making a donation for all this effort! HaYDeN's 0.4B is working great for me so far, only issue I had was the lockpick screen is zoomed it quite a bit (still usable though). Another very minor thing I noticed was the falling snow seems like it's a lot bigger vs when I ran single monitor. I'm guessing maybe the particles are being stretched out when running multiple displays. I'm running 2x GTX 560 Ti @ 6000x1080. Everything else is perfection :) Thanks again for all the effort.

That is the way that Eyefinity works - or any form of surround gaming with a higher FOV, the high FOV makes it more pronounced, you shouldn't generally be looking at the side monitors, turn (in-game) if you want to look at something, you will get it and it will come natural after some hours. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

Do you get any error message ? Can you Alt+ Tab after launching game and take a screenshot of HaYDeN's app ? Yup, Skyrim_UW runs without problems. I click on inject patch and run Skyrim. Once the TESV.EXE process is detected by Skyrim_UW, Skyrim_UW does its thing as seen below which immediately causes TESV.EXE to crash back to desktop with an access violation. No chance to alt-tab as the crash happens within a second. In any case, the output log of SKyrim_UW is seen below: + Searching for RUNNING Skyrim Process... + Skyrim process found... + Process opened successfully! + Executing ASM injection... + Allocating additional memory to process... + Generating Function call 1... + Function 1 written successfully... + Generating Function call 1... + Generating Function call 2... + Function 2 written successfully... + Patching Mouse Handler... + Patched Mouse Handler Successfully... + Patching Overscaling.. + Patched Overscaling Successfully... + Too close for missles, switching to guns (switching to hotkey mode) + Skyrim thread exited... we're done! As you can see, no error here and it's still running after Skryim crashes. It's TESV.EXE that gets borked when Skyrim_UW hooks into its process. The 0.1 fix worked without problems (but obviously had its limitations).

I'm using .4A and everything seems to be perfect as far as menus / maps / everything. The only thing is that the FOV seems to be less perfect than Oblivion in triple screen, but I'm sure that's because I don't know what I'm doing in regard to which FOV settings go best with 3840 X 1024. I leave the fix at AUTO DETECT but I'm guessing the FOV settings don't count and should be adjusted from the normal 85 / 91? Using: Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit 3X Asus VK222 monitors ( stock =1680 X 1050 native / max) TripleHead2Go Digital Intel Core 2 i7-920 2.66 GHz 8M L3 Cache LGA1366 12 GB ram 2X Nvidia GTX 260's running in SLI I remember trying to do FOV calculations for this res in COD4, but no matter how correct I thought my math was, it never looked right at all...

I may be in a minority, but I have not had a single crash in eyefinity, of course my video cards only have 1G vram, perhaps that reduces the footprint of the game?

However, today when I try to launch from TESV.exe it actually brings up steam and makes me go thru the launcher... found out I had to re apply the ini fix from earlier to correct it from 1680x1050 to 5040x1050.

I noticed when I restarted the game "....Skyrim has finished downloading" message... and I'm like OH NO YOU DIDN'T... So yeah, now the LAA will patch the .exe but afterward the .exe won't launch. If you use the .exe without the LAA patch, it kicks off steam and launcher when it loads and fast travel causes CTD again.. GG Bethesda! I do have a backup of my original file though so I copied that back in, patched it with LAA again and it runs without kicking off Steam! YAY I imagine when the game quits it will update again though. Ahh, nevermind, with the old .exe LAA patched, sure fast travel works but when you go in some building and probably other places you get bright green and purple flashing textures... hrm... they had to go and break it didn't they... _________________ i7 sandy 4.4ghz with a snorkel 1080gtx 8gb RAM Gigabyte P67-UD7 rev.

For those of you that haven't backed up your EXE, make sure you disconnect your network connection before starting Steam so you can back it up before it updates.

The LAA patched new .exe returns an error when run, so the file needed to be restored. I don't understand Bethesda's damn problem. I noticed today that my toons weren't casting shadows.

Let Steam update the game. Re-enable LAA to 4gb. Try to play (mine gave me an error messag code 51) Verify game cache (mine re-downloaded one file) Now it works. LAA is enabled, game is running through Steam. All is well on my end. Hope this helps someone. ======================================================================== Let me know.

Joined: 16 Nov 2011, 05:18 Posts: 58	So I played until the early hours this morning. I had been using Heilifax's solution up until I installed HaYDeN's solutinon .4a at around 5:00 a.m. MST this morning. The reason I updated to HaYDeN's solution is all of the sudden my game started crashing about every 20 to 30 minutes running Helifax's solution. So I checked back here on the forum's and found .4a and installed it. I assume this all started occuring because of the TestV.exe steam patch issue. Well after I installed Helifax's .4a solution I was up and running great again as far as I know and didn't have any more crashes. When I stopped playing everything seemed fine except I noticed that when I went in a dungeon I started getting clipping (right word?) on my side monitors in dungeons. All the walls in dungeons (and anywhere else for that matter if i get close enough) are now see through. This only happens on the side monitors. I am assuming this has to do with MSAA issues? This pretty much makes the game unplayable in 3 monitor mode for me. :(

I'm not sure if the update broke that as well, but now - although I have copied saves from home to saves on work pc the game does not recognize saves from home pc. (Both of which are owned by me) Not sure if it was the update that broke it but it was fine b4 update... [Edit] I removed all but the last save and now have one save, but it's the latest one and it works. probably not related to the game (Steam) update at all _________________

I'm probably wrong, and it is something else causing it. I have it going on, my FOV is normally 95-100. It's doesn't bother me to be honest. While I'm on here, just like to report that Hayden's 0.4a fix appears to be working flawlessly. I did have dramas with the map, but I think it might be because I've edited my Skyrim.ini so I can "street view" the map. Other then that it's all good. I dont mind the zoomed in lockpick as I can actually see the lock now, it doesn't brake the game for me. Cheers again. _________________ 起死回生 (kishi kaisei) Wake from death and return to life..

Phf!! and i was skeptacle to move to .4, GLAD I DID! my only real notes are: @ 3840x1024 the preset hands FOV is terrible, but the world at 85 is pretty great. 91 on hands tho? def not @ 3840!, im rocking 75 ATM. i personally HATE the zoomed lock pick. but that seems like a pretty good split on opinions here. which is funny cause i hate it so much i think those that prefer it zoomed are NUTS!! lol _________________ Asus P8P67 Pro, I7 2600k @ 4.6Ghz, 8gb, 250GB SSD/ 4TB Mechanical, Modded GTX 780TI, 3x AOC 27" IPS 5760x1080

Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 03:16 Posts: 41	Well, I got the patch and tried to play with an old tesv.exe. The game worked at least where I was, up until the point that I killed a Dragon and I didn't harvest the soul. Twice I tried and it failed both times. Looks like trying to use the old EXE will not work. Using LAA on the new exe causes it to fail to launch, but without LAA the game crashes. Time to send off another email to Bethesda for being jerk offs. Likely they will never see my money again. _________________ Main Box: 3x Dell U2311h 23" Monitors, Intel i7 2600K @4.3Ghz * ASUS P8Z68-V Pro * G.Skill 16Gb DDR3 1866 * ASUS HD6950 DCII 2gb Eyefinity 6 + Sapphire HD6950 2gb Dirt3 Edition [6970 Shader Unlocks, CrossFireX]

I can still run it, but I think it's because I turned off auto update in Steam. What I've noticed, though, is that running hayden's 4b now, all 3 monitors go black and refuse to respond. I have to hard reboot. I'll try 4a for a bit. It's happening on the map. 100% sure of that.

I'm too afraid to ever use the launcher now. :( Well, seems I'm not the only person having trouble with Mount Anthor. There is a quest that requires you to go there, and if you go without the quest, seems killing the dragon causes the game to bug? I'm not positive yet but I'm getting real tired of these things. That's not so bad :). I had to kill a necromancer in a dungeon the other night, and the final room's door closes permanently behind you. You're "extracted" from the dungeon a different way. Well, that extraction didn't include Lydia. So when I didn't see her outside with me, I crawl back into the dungeon and arrive at the permanently sealed door... great. Open console, "TCL", fly through the door, "TCL", tell her to head on home (she runs up against the locked door and eventually fades), "TCL", fly back through the door, and "TCL" again to head on out. Luckily, Lydia arrived back at home awhile later.

Joined: 16 Nov 2011, 05:18 Posts: 58	Has anyone else had an issue since yesterday where the mouse won't move past the left monitor? It happens randomly after I play the game for a little bit. Everything works fine but after a while when I pull up the menu's my mouse won't move to the center or right screen. Just wondering if anyone else has been dealing with this since patch? I've resolved my other issues with clipping and so far I've been able to run .4A and .4B and .3 without any problems. The LAA fix above worked well.

Let Steam update the game. Re-enable LAA to 4gb. Try to play (mine gave me an error messag code 51) Verify game cache (mine re-downloaded one file) Now it works. LAA is enabled, game is running through Steam. All is well on my end. Hope this helps someone. ======================================================================== Let me know. Yeah but isn't the "one" file that its re-downloading the new .exe? Which means that No, LAA is not enabled because the file that was patched with it has been replaced? I tried the "new" 4GB fix just posted (fnv4gb.exe) and the game loaded fine, went outside my house and pulled up map, fast traveled to Thieves Guild... CTD. I'll continue testing it but initial results don't look good. _________________ i7 sandy 4.4ghz with a snorkel 1080gtx 8gb RAM Gigabyte P67-UD7 rev.

I'm testing it in depth now. After fast traveling from city to city to place to city to place to mountain top and spinning all around, I can confirm that I am not getting any crashing with this fix. It seems to be working as a new LAA method for the patch (I have now disabled steam auto-patching). For Steam users that got patched and need the LAA fix, download the file from megaupload that I linked, extract the contents of "compiled_files" to your /steam/steamapps/common/skyrim folder, the same folder with tesv.exe, and launch "fnv4gb.exe". This works with Hayden's 0.4a release, so I'm sure it does with all the others. d it was just modified for Skyrim. Whatever works! Effing Bethesda better not mess it up again. Edit: I'd also note that the AMD 11.11a drivers did help single GPU performance just slightly, and I now can leave CrossFireX enabled in CCC since it tells the game to only use one GPU. Hopefully they get a full CrossFireX solution out soon. Are you playing with a retail dvd install or a steam digital download? Seems retail dvd folks are having trouble with this new LAA patch. Since i am a retail dvd install i am hesitant to try this as im running ok on the old .exe with haydens .4. I have steam offline. It seems it was written for Fallout New Vegas, an

It goes away if I go through a load point though (go in to a house or come out of a building, etc) Crashes are gone though. YaY. I am running Skyrim Retail DVD just to note.

Nice thing about steam is it shows how many hours you've played and if someone pm's you you don't have to tab out and corrupt your game anymore, you can use the overlay. Now if only I could add in the 16hrs I played with the fix just running the TESV.exe. :/ Also, the "Official" Skyrim4GB patch can be found: http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1013 _________________ i7 sandy 4.4ghz with a snorkel 1080gtx 8gb RAM Gigabyte P67-UD7 rev.

Thanks to your help through this long and detailed post I was able to have the game be fully playable, minus the minor issue of not being able to see my characters face during character creation. I did however have one question. The Hayden 0.4A fix is the one I am using and right now I have to run it every time before I launch the game. Is that common practice or should it be a one time hit? I am running a 3X1 and my copy of Skyrim is from Steam.

The boring stuff is that since you cannot click on yes or no, it's blocked, and the only to go out is to kill the process and restart it.

That is a dumb question, but when I alt-tab, and try to tab back in it appears to be hung; blank window, no mouse since it has been grabbed by TESV.exe, sometimes after a minute it will go back to full screen, but not always. If I did not have as much time behind a computer as I do I would say it was hung and force close it. What I do is tab back out, which works, I have to move my mouse to the task bar to see it and click to get normal mouse control back on top of the window TESV creates, then I click on the TESV window or alt-tab back to TESV. The game goes back to full screen and works normally. I have not crashed from alt-tabbing at all since release. This is with Nvidia SLI GTX275's with 280.19 drivers.

I guess they realize that they're doing enough to break the game on their own, and don't need our help. I'm on the negative since this LAA thing, because every CTD potentially loses my last quicksave and possibly the autosave to the buffer. They get corrupted. That means repeating up to 30 minutes of gameplay with EACH crash. This makes me not want to play anymore. Haven't played in 24 hours after losing my last quicksave point. I'm taking my ball and going home. When the quicksave is corrupted, no amount of F5 spamming will save you. Thanks for the link for the new LAA hook. I'll try it later... I'm too angry to even bother playing Skyrim tonight. Are you listening Bethesda? Probably not hearing a thing under the ching-ching of all the console sales... enough to make the quarter million PC copies sold before release seem like chump change- but we're the chumps here.

After Alt-Tabbing a few times, the two synced up and I was able to control the in-game pointer to start the game. Also, I have noticed that in conversations (and other times) I lose the ability to choose options with the mouse. I can still rotate my view slowly while in conversation, but the mouse pointer is nowhere to be seen. I have had the second mouse issue prior to the patched skyrim, and I am not sure it is related to the fix tool, just thought I would mention it. Not game breaking.

The center monitor is the only place the mouse pointer shows up. However it is also on the monitor to your right, you just can't see it there, the pointer goes out of view on the right monitor. The monitor to your left you can't move the mouse on to. This is probably what you're talking about? In other words, if you drag the pointer off the center screen to the right it will disappear but it won't stop till it hits the right side of the right screen. Its there, you just can't see it. This is probably because the menus and what not are offset by one monitor width from the left side. So the mouse is active on both the center and right screens, you just can't see it when it on the right screen. Only on the center. If the mouse disappears or goes 'out of sync', mouse back to your left till the mouse is back on the center monitor and you should see the pointer again. You had control of it the whole time :) _________________ i7 sandy 4.4ghz with a snorkel 1080gtx 8gb RAM Gigabyte P67-UD7 rev.

The boring stuff is that since you cannot click on yes or no, it's blocked, and the only to go out is to kill the process and restart it. No solution? Because it still more boring that what I thaugh. After some mission, a popup message appears and you have to click on OK. If your mouse is locked on the left screen, you are stuck since the message is on the center screen. I killed the dragon two times. After the first time, I received the popup message and I was stuck. Up to now, I don't know what cause the beginning of the mouse blocked on the left screen. I mean when I start the game and at least for some times, the mouse can move on the three screens. The only good news is that reload the game and the savegame is quick... when you don't forget to save before to start some menu.

On the MAP I can see the pointer on the center screen and I think it can go on the right screen, even if I can't see it. But I can't go on the left screen. If I do a disable via the hotkey, I can see and move the pointer on the three screen. But it doesn't change anything for the other menu.

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 06:34 Posts: 64	Odd as it sounds, HaYDeNs fix can be messed up (both 0.4A and 0.4B) by changing some of the ini items. For example: iShadowMaskQuarter=5 will cause everything in the UI to be shifted whereas iShadowMaskQuarter=4 works fine. Therefore, to people having wierd issues, you might want to revert your ini's back to default to check if they are working, then apply changes one by one until something breaks. Thats what I had to do. I suspect this is the difference between people who use 0.4A and 0.4B also. ----------------- Additionally confirming that I can't use my mouse on the left screen at any time, and pointer doesn't show up on right. Doesn't really break anything for me so I haven't minded but.. figured I'd chime in.

Helifax what kind of frames were you getting in 3D + Surround? I am starting to suspect something is seriously messed up with my Tri-SLI because at 99% GPU usage I get a miserable 25-35 FPS in 3D Surround...even though I get 45-80 FPS in 2D Surround *with ~50% GPU usage*.

Joined: 10 Sep 2010, 03:28 Posts: 26	Hi there. I am using Hayden's 4b fix on a nVidia Surround set-up at a resolution of 6080 x 1080 (I have fat bezels, OK!) :) Everything works perfectly except for two small issues... 1) The quest markers that appear in the world seem to rotate too much. i.e. they are in the right place when I look directly at target, but if I am looking to the side of the target, they move a disproportionate amount to the side. I'm guessing they rotate thrice as much as they need to... 2) I am currently auto-detecting the resolution for the HUD. It sets itself to 1080 x 5760 and works fine, albeit with a little of the HUD clipped off. If I set the horizontal resolution to 6080, the entire HUD disappears. This is not really a big deal to be honest... Also, I fixed the flickering exterior shadows by modifinig my .ini file, but now they flicker constantly when I sprint. Here is the fix... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXgF_IDpFNI Any help would be much appreciated! :) Dan

Also, if I remember right, I think I tested it and this mouse problem happens to me even if I run the game and don't implement any of HaYDeN's fixes (although I can't remember for sure and can test this again tonight). I have played with the .ini file and have had no luck solving the issue and reverted back to an earlier .ini file and it still happens with about the same frequency. I haven't given up on a solution yet but I am pretty close to wiping the game, re-installing, and starting over from scratch. This did not happen to me before this last "patch". Also the new LAA patch doesnt' effect this problem. The mouse still gets locked on the left monitor whether I start the game with the LAA executable or the steam executable. I'll post again if I find a solution. As for my clipping issues someone asked what my solution was. I restored back to an unmodified .ini file and the clipping problems i was having went away. I still get normal clipping in tight dungeons on the outside edges but the extreme clipping that was filling my 2 side monitors went away. I also dropped my FOV from 100 to 80. Edit: I take it back. I have not tested the mouse issue without one of HaYDeN's fixes installed. What I did was test it with .3, .4a, and .4b and the problem occured with all 3 patches.

Are you sure the hack was not simply deactivated with the hotkey ( PLUS OR MINUS + -) - did you try toggling the enable/disable hotkey? If this was in respone to the mouse getting stuck on the left screen I can confirm that it is not because of the hack getting disabled. The hack is still running when this occurs. Toggling the keys doesn't help. I don't know about for the other guy but it doesn't ever happen to me right away and is consistantly occuring about 15 to 30 minutes after restarting the game. I have tried running each version of the patch .3, .4a, and .4b and the problem still occurs. It also still occurs whether I start the game with the LAA executable or steam executable. The only thing I don't think I've tested is whether it occurs by running the game normally with no patches or LAA and can test this later tonight. I haven't directly linked the problem to your patches yet. Also, this has only occured since the Bethesda/Steam "patch". Exo

I made a couple of tests with the original TESV.exe and the TESV.exe..4g (from the 4GB patch) and even if the correct 3D Vision profile is not loaded I could not find any performance or graphical issues. So I can say we are not loosing anything in 3D Vision;)) We can use the patch safely Best Regards, Helifax I have found i cant play running the 4G patcher. My game pauses every couple of seconds and exits 3d mode. Then it re enters. The GPU shows the usage bouncing from 0-100 %. I had to enter task manage and kill off the process. Running it non 4G mode the problem doesnt occur.

It's strange because the problem never occur on the map. The boring stuff is that since you cannot click on yes or no, it's blocked, and the only to go out is to kill the process and restart it. No solution? Because it still more boring that what I thaugh. After some mission, a popup message appears and you have to click on OK. If your mouse is locked on the left screen, you are stuck since the message is on the center screen. I killed the dragon two times. After the first time, I received the popup message and I was stuck. Up to now, I don't know what cause the beginning of the mouse blocked on the left screen. I mean when I start the game and at least for some times, the mouse can move on the three screens. The only good news is that reload the game and the savegame is quick... when you don't forget to save before to start some menu. I have been having this same issue and posted on it before. The mouse reverts to the left screen to me about every half hour or so. Once this occurs the only way to get the mouse off the left screen is to restart the game. Also, if I remember right, I think I tested it and this mouse problem happens to me even if I run the game and don't implement any of HaYDeN's fixes (although I can't remember for sure and can test this again tonight). I have played with the .ini file and have had no luck solving the issue and reverted back to an earlier .ini file and it still happens with about the same frequency. I haven't given up on a solution yet but I am pretty close to wiping the game, re-installing, and starting over from scratch. This did not happen to me before this last "patch". Also the new LAA patch doesnt' effect this problem. The mouse still gets locked on the left monitor whether I start the game with the LAA executable or the steam executable. I'll post again if I find a solution. As for my clipping issues someone asked what my solution was. I restored back to an unmodified .ini file and the clipping problems i was having went away. I still get normal clipping in tight dungeons on the outside edges but the extreme clipping that was filling my 2 side monitors went away. I also dropped my FOV from 100 to 80. Edit: I take it back. I have not tested the mouse issue without one of HaYDeN's fixes installed. What I did was test it with .3, .4a, and .4b and the problem occured with all 3 patches. Could you check the same than me? Start the game open the inventory test the mouse in the inventory close the inventory, open the map close the map recheck the inventory What happen?

I didn't start playing Skyrim until there was a simple elegant solution available (Thanks HaYDeN!) but Helifax and the rest of the contributors deserve just as much credit for making the game playable pretty much from the get go and I hope they benefit from the contributions as well. I'm running Skyrim at a bezel corrected 5820x1080 using HaYDeN's 4a fix @50-90fps(it varies that much depending on where I am)(what happened to vsync?) everything on Ultra except Shadows (high), 2AA & 12AF. As far as I can tell the fix works flawlessly minus the zoomed lockpick (meh no big deal), choosing skills/perks (though using the gamepad negates any mouse issues some texts overlap each other) and the 'rotating icon' issue dt1000 mentioned which also is not a big deal. As far as I can tell the map works flawlessly too. Really no big issues so far at all! Using mods, Post Process Injector #4 setting, Enhanced Night Sky, Nvidia 3D Vision Comp Project(for 3D sky fix even though I'm not currently playing in 3D), Detailed Faces and No More Blocky Faces. I also added fSunShadowUpdateTime=0 fSunUpdateThreshold=2.0 fShadowBiasScale=0.6 to the [Display] category of DocumentsMy GamesSkyrimSkyrim.ini to help with flickering shadow problem. I haven't used the LAA patch since the 'update' (should I or shouldn't I? I've heard that using it cuts down on pop up, better draw distance as well...)and have had a total of 2 CTD in 10+hrs of gameplay. Thanks again! _________________ [email protected] w/ Hyper 212+ | GA P67A-UD7-B3 | EVGA GTX 580SC SLI | G.Skill Ripjaws 2x4GB | Corsair P3 128GB SSD | WD 1T Caviar Black | Corsair 1200AX PSU | HAF 932 | Asus VG236HEx2 & Asus VG236H

I don't know how this could cause the issue but I'm curious about it because I found a post simialr to this on this in another forum. I guess people playing EQ2 in eyefinity had a similar mouse issue and one of the guys said it had to do with his video card driver update. I don't know understand how a video card driver could cause this issue but it is interesting to note that the day this started happening I updated my Raydeon driver for my 6950 card from 11.5 to 11.11. Can you tell me what video card you have and if it is a Radeon card what version of the catalyst driver software you are using? I might try to roll back my driver to see if it helps. Exo

Have to say, I love the support and dedication of some of the members here. I want to give a HUGE thanks! shout out to HaYden and helifax!!! And others that have participated in scripting, testing, informing, sharing etc. It is a huge pain every time games come out for PC and not to support eyefinity or surround vision out of the box. I was looking so forward to Skyrim, only to be flat out gut checked that it didnt support widescreen. Thanks to both of your fixes you have made it enjoyable and a painless (mostly). I for one would not even play Skyrim if I had to result to one monitor (like Witcher 2). Other than the occasional crash to desktop, it has been 100% playable for me. Thanks again!! love you guys... currently running HaYdens 4a version no probs ;) _________________ * DFI Lanparty TR2S Plus - Q9550 EO @ 3.8 / Liquid cooled / 2 x Saphire 6970 / 8G Dominator 1066 / 1TB & 500g WD drives / Windows 7 64bit / 3x INC 28" monitors @ 5760x1200 / Xclio FT *

No, I'm running three monitors - 2 24" 1920x1080 in portrait mode on either side of a 2560x1600 30" in landscape. Hence why I'm running Soft TH. Looks gorgeous. The map issue could well be a side-effect of Soft TH, although iirc it has worked for me sporadically. Anyway, for anyone trying to manually set res, I found setting it to a manual res at more than 1/3 my total width let me read and see more clearly than in autodetect.

For Exodus (and anyone else running crossfire) you no longer need to disable/remove a card from your crossfire set up. You should use the latest Catalyst 11.11 driver, and then use the hotfix (see here: http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/Catalyst1111aperformance.aspx) which disables crossfire support for Skyrim, until they release a driver with full support.

You should use the latest Catalyst 11.11 driver, and then use the hotfix (see here: http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/Catalyst1111aperformance.aspx) which disables crossfire support for Skyrim, until they release a driver with full support. thanks, will try this. will it disable crossfire automaticly for skyrim, or will it disable CF permanent? _________________ i7 2600k @ 4.8Ghz, Asus P8P67 Deluxe 2x Nvidia GTX Titan, 3x HP-ZR2440 24" 1920x1200

I did this and my framerate is fine with one card. Getting up to 60 fps with the one card and lowest I've ever gotten is 30 in Whiterun. Before I disabled Xfire I was getting 10 - 15 frames per second. Xfire is note worth it and you get plenty of fps with one card. Sucks that we spent the money on the second card and cant' use it I know but for this game you really don't need 2x cards.

It's strange because the problem never occur on the map. The boring stuff is that since you cannot click on yes or no, it's blocked, and the only to go out is to kill the process and restart it. No solution? Because it still more boring that what I thaugh. After some mission, a popup message appears and you have to click on OK. If your mouse is locked on the left screen, you are stuck since the message is on the center screen. I killed the dragon two times. After the first time, I received the popup message and I was stuck. Up to now, I don't know what cause the beginning of the mouse blocked on the left screen. I mean when I start the game and at least for some times, the mouse can move on the three screens. The only good news is that reload the game and the savegame is quick... when you don't forget to save before to start some menu. I have been having this same issue and posted on it before. The mouse reverts to the left screen to me about every half hour or so. Once this occurs the only way to get the mouse off the left screen is to restart the game. Also, if I remember right, I think I tested it and this mouse problem happens to me even if I run the game and don't implement any of HaYDeN's fixes (although I can't remember for sure and can test this again tonight). I have played with the .ini file and have had no luck solving the issue and reverted back to an earlier .ini file and it still happens with about the same frequency. I haven't given up on a solution yet but I am pretty close to wiping the game, re-installing, and starting over from scratch. This did not happen to me before this last "patch". Also the new LAA patch doesnt' effect this problem. The mouse still gets locked on the left monitor whether I start the game with the LAA executable or the steam executable. I'll post again if I find a solution. As for my clipping issues someone asked what my solution was. I restored back to an unmodified .ini file and the clipping problems i was having went away. I still get normal clipping in tight dungeons on the outside edges but the extreme clipping that was filling my 2 side monitors went away. I also dropped my FOV from 100 to 80. Edit: I take it back. I have not tested the mouse issue without one of HaYDeN's fixes installed. What I did was test it with .3, .4a, and .4b and the problem occured with all 3 patches. Could you check the same than me? Start the game open the inventory test the mouse in the inventory close the inventory, open the map close the map recheck the inventory What happen? I will give that a try. I am at work right now but I'll try it out when I get home in a couple hours. Edit: One more thing. When you say "start the game" do you mean without the LAA executable and without of of HaYDeN's patches or with one of his patches running? Also, if so, which version are you using? If we can determine this is a seperate issue that is not caused from one of HaYDeN's fixes we should probably start a new topic to resolve this issue. Edit 2; One more thing. I don't know how this could cause the issue but I'm curious about it because I found a post simialr to this on this in another forum. I guess people playing EQ2 in eyefinity had a similar mouse issue and one of the guys said it had to do with his video card driver update. I don't know understand how a video card driver could cause this issue but it is interesting to note that the day this started happening I updated my Raydeon driver for my 6950 card from 11.5 to 11.11. Can you tell me what video card you have and if it is a Radeon card what version of the catalyst driver software you are using? I might try to roll back my driver to see if it helps. Exo Ok, here is the results of my testing your steps exactly above: First time: I ran the game. Opened inventory. Closed Inventory. Opened Map. Opened Inventory. Everything is fine and mouse works. This is just running the game running without injecting any of HaYDeN's patches. Second Time: I ran the game. Alt Tabbed and Injected .4a. Pressed +. Opened Inv. Closed Inv. Opened Map. Closed Map. Opened Inventory. Mouse is working fine. However if I hit the - key any time after this point and open the inventory the inv hud opens up on the left screen not the center screen and the mouse will not move off the left screen at this point. However, if I hit the + key again the inv hud moves back to the center screen with the mouse moving to the center screen. But any time I go back to the - option the hud is on the left screen and the mouse will not move off of this screen. So at this point I can't run the game in the - mode. If I hit the esc key with the - still on the hud for saving the game, etc comes up on the middle screen but the mouse remains on the left screen and I cannot move it to the center screen hud. If I hit + at this point it moves the mouse back to the center screen. The only way to reset the mouse problem at this point in the - option is to restart the game. This is the optoin I play with. Anytime I need to get my mouse to the center screen (for example to load or save a game) I just hit the + Key to minmize the hud to the center screen and bring the mouse back to the center screen. Everything is scrunched by this time using the + option but I only need to do it long enough to manipulate the mouse for either loading or saving or working throught npc discussions. Third Time: I did the exact same thing as the 2nd option with the same results but ran .4b. However, in this instance the + and - key toggling have no results on my machine. For example even before I follow your steps if i run the game and inject .4b and I hit + it doesn't minimize the Inv HUD to the center screen like .4a does. So when mouse gets stuck on the left monitor I can't just hit the + key to bring the mouse back to the center screen. At this point with .4b I have to restart the game to get the mouse to move back to the other 2 monitors. Fourth Time: I followed the same procedure as the 2nd time only I injected .3. This time when I hit the + key it moves the inv screen to the center monitor. However when i do this many times I get scrunched text on the center screen and (no matter which HaYDeN fix I install) running the fix on the center screen scrunches my compass to very small and has unreadable charachters. However with .3 I can follow your procedure and the mouse never gets hung up on the left screen. However toggling minus puts the inv hud on the left screen and when I move the mouse to the middle or right screens instead of getting hung up the mouse just dissapears all together. All in all .3 might be the best option for me to run but for some reason I get a lot of text scrunching and I never know what the HUD's are going to look like each time I open them. Sometimes they look normal and sometimes everthing is scunched. In the past I'm pretty sure I was able to get the mouse hung up on the left monitor using .3 before but I could not get that result tonight. Exo

If i have the parameter set to 3, the version 0.4A runs very very well. But if i set that parameter to 5, then, with the same version (0.4A) the Menu is missplaced to the right screen. In the loading screen the text is stretched and unredeable. And when in map, the cursor is disapeared. I don't know what this parameter is for. But one thing is obvious, it's relevant. All of you having problems with helifax fix, i encourage you to test changing that value and see if something happen.

For this mod it would be perfect to start displaying on the left side (like centered or single monitor displaying) but continue to display on the other monitors, because this mod has issues, where some coloumns (colums after 'books') are cut off.

I use 0.4B and this particular parameter is set to 4 (default for ULTRA), 0.4A does not work for me. I think we've possibly found the disparity between A & B versions. Hopefully this information can be used to formulate a fix and re-merge the versions back together again for 0.5 (HaYDeN has already stated some features will be fixed lockpicking and working character creation in eyefinity). Not sure when this update will be but he deserves some playtime, so no rush on it :)

Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 03:16 Posts: 41	I still get negative crossfire scaling with the 11.11b drivers. I am seriously considering going nvidia next time around just because of drivers. I'm getting worse. I'm now getting a crash to desktop whenever I walk outside. It seemed to be okay since I was in a dungeon, but as soon as I got out it crashed. With or without hayden's fix, with or without the 4gb patch fix, with both ini files deleted and recreated, I've tried it all. Even loaded an old save, where I was outside at the time, and it crashed to desktop instantly on that save. I'm going to roll back to 11.11a again and see if I can recover the game. EDIT: Seems to be that anisotropic filtering is causing my crashing in 11.11b. If I turn anisotropic filtering and anti-aliasing all the way off, with everything else on Ultra, I'm no longer getting the crash to desktop when walking outside. On 11.11a, I had AA off and filtering to 16x. EDIT 2: I too am getting way worse scaling from 11.11b than with using RadeonPro. With RadeonPro I see what seems like a very small bump, but not much better than a single card. With just 11.11b, it's fine outside but terrible in the cities. What's worse is that it's running worse now with 11.11b and crossfire enabled than it did with 11.11a and crossfire disabled and the settings LOWER. 11.11b with RadeonPro using the Oblivion profile is fine though. What a mess AMD is making of this. EDIT 3: Strangest of all, after all these updates and changes, Hayden's 0.4A now has broken maps for me, where 0.4A was always perfect. Now 0.4B is the one with working maps, where 0.4B never worked for me before. It's like my computer is possessed with demons (demons that don't want me to play skyrim). I believe I have it all worked out now. In the end, I'm 11.11b, AA off, filtering 8x, RadeonPro using Oblivion profile, Hayden 0.4B.

Sometimes it drops to 30 but not that often. the problem is that AMD does not have a working crossfire profile yet for skyrim, and they're putting out busted solutions. plus we're playing at resolutions like 5760x1080. With just 1 card enabled at 5760x1080, all ultra settings and lots of mods, AA off and 16x AF, I was getting frame rates just like yours. with the new crossfire profile that AMD just put out, my framerates went DOWN. _________________ Main Box: 3x Dell U2311h 23" Monitors, Intel i7 2600K @4.3Ghz * ASUS P8Z68-V Pro * G.Skill 16Gb DDR3 1866 * ASUS HD6950 DCII 2gb Eyefinity 6 + Sapphire HD6950 2gb Dirt3 Edition [6970 Shader Unlocks, CrossFireX]

If they are still giving negative CF scaling, my bet is they are bogus. Lets not jump to any conclusions regarding AMD's competence based on a "leaked" driver which may well be someone's attempt at humor by rebadging an old driver. Game has not been out two weeks, and a two week cycle is about the minimum one could be expected to make a patch release in a commercial production environment. The link in the developers blog was unrelated to the linked driver when I checked last night.

Possibily it will work in concert with an upcoming patch from Bethesda? My configuration is very common, I would think that getting same-brand 6850s to run the game on crossfire would be easy to reproduce and test. Either they are being disingenuous, or have a test/validation problem.

Well i verified its definitely glass armor. the hands fov does nothing for the image. the world fov does a "little" with the world at 90 it wasnt just the tiny triangles and a little bit more i could see the armor on the whole bottom of the screen, switched world fov to 50 and it was even less than in my video but still pretty noticable, not better enough to be worth the drop in fov. unequipping glass armor fixes it instantly. but its the best armor i have by a landslide, and its regens magika +30%. so i really dont want to switch.. _________________ Asus P8P67 Pro, I7 2600k @ 4.6Ghz, 8gb, 250GB SSD/ 4TB Mechanical, Modded GTX 780TI, 3x AOC 27" IPS 5760x1080

I am using two 1024x768 projectors to get a 2048x768 widescreen without a terribly noticeable seam. In all three of the latest files, setting the number of monitors to 2 will have the UI fill the rightmost screen at the proper aspect ratio. When I set it to 3 monitors, the UI will be centered, but will be quite squished. I have to leave the auto-detect resolution on or the UI will extend off the bottom of the screen. Let me know if you would like any further info on my case and experiences with the fix.

HaYDeN	Post subject: The way that the offset is Posted: 28 Nov 2011, 08:48
Insiders Joined: 14 Feb 2010, 13:39 Posts: 761	The way that the offset is calculated is by taking the horizontal resolution and deviding it by 3 - this hack is primarly designed around triple wide in landscape. Why on earth you would wish to try and cram that menu which is designed to be displayed on NO LESS than 5:4 into something even smaller than a 5:4 aspect ratio (eg. 0.75 assuming I read your post correctly) is somewhat confusing to me... There is no way you are going to get the menu to display in a usable state on a single monitor on a aspect ratio of 0.75, even 640x480 is 1.33 If you are intent on trying however, you need to modify the Monitor number (its a float, change it to 3.1 or 3.2 for example, or 2.9 or 2.8 until you get the desired effect) - altho this may result in it not filling the entire width, eg if you go 5760 / 4 you would get 1440 offset left, 1440 GUI width and 1440 offset right, for a total width of 4320.. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

Insiders Joined: 06 Sep 2011, 15:27 Posts: 213	No prob Cinnabuns. I haven't seen any improvement with Skyrim, nor did it hurt anything either so that's good. I haven't tried BF3 because there are just a ton of problems with it and I haven't looked at it since Skyrim came out :bigsmile: . I did try Batman Arkham City, now if anyone was hoping it would fix the DX11 situation, sadly it does not. I ran in DX11 and DX9 modes, and saw no appreciable improvement, in the benchmarks sadly :( . EDIT: Also you have to do the fix as mentioned before by helifax to get Ambient Occlusion working if you are using the LAA fix. I tried it and it worked just fine. Here is his description on what to do: Ok, after a bit of fooling around:)) I managed to make the 4GB version to use the nVidia 3D Profile and SLI compatibility bits: 1. Download and install nVidia Inspector 2. Start Nvidia Inspector 3. Go to the driver profile settings 4. Select the Elder Scrolls V Skyrim profile 5. Click the button that says "add application to current profile" (small icon of a window with a plus-sign) 6. Navigate to your Skyrim installation and select TESV.exe 7. Before hitting OK in the Filename field append ".4gb" so the result should be "TESV.exe.4gb" 8. HIT OK 9. HIT "Apply changes" 10. Play the GAME AGAIN THIS VALID ONLY FOR THOSE WITH nVIDIA cards in SLI and 3D VISION (SURROUND) Best Regards, Helifax _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

(not actual flames..just the pop-corn sparks:))) To bad I'm stuck now only on my Alienware... Now for the interesting part: Even if you have it like me on watercooling...NEVER EEEVEER change the damn 0.938 voltage....it will not burn instantly...only after a couple of months (maybe 8, maybe more, maybe less).... while the temperature remains in max 70 degrees on 100% load on both GPUs (25 degrees lower than upper limit on air ). So as you can see it is the damn VRM problem again... Tomorrow is coming my new one.. (yes another GTX 590 as it is an awesome card + once you tested 3D Surround..well you can't get it out) ... I am posting here from work and kinda hard to search for the correct section and since many people read here I said to give them a fair warning : "If your card is overclocked+overvoltaged return to STOCK ASAP ;)) " Best Regards, Helifax _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

I will say I have downloaded a bad beta driver package before, where it would not open after I got it and I had to go nvidia.com to redownload it, but it was probably a bad copy or it was still being uploaded to that mirror. I did not have any issues when I got it from PCGamer.com, nor is it problem for my friend over at Techgage.com that linked directly to it from his site, after I told him about earlier today like I did here. I am sorry that happened and if you feel that this link was a problem, try nvidia's primary site or report it to nvidia it is possible something may have been compromised on that site. This could also just be a case of coincidence as well, not trying to point a finger that it's your fault or your hardware, but I wont rule it out, just like I wont rule out the site being compromised. I did just try it again in both Chrome and Firefox both up to date with the latest versions and nothing happened on my end. Again I'm sorry to hear about your inconvenience, but as far as I can tell, the site is safe. _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

I'm currently having issues trying to play Skyrim in surround, every time I go triple monitor my screen distorts, menus and everything like that stay fine and if i have 3d enabled through it works fine. Leaving me completely stumped. I've done everything from deleting .inis to a full reinstall of the game (after backing up mods/saves) but it still does this. Even odder it was working fine not 2 days ago using Hayden's fix. Any help with solving this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to WSGF Yukie666, please check this thread - http://widescreengamingforum.com/forum/forums/multi-monitor-gaming/nvidia-surround-gaming/18236/nvidia-surround-wierd-skyrim-problem and try the .ini file ive attached (post #3), place it at C:Users....DocumentsMy GamesSkyrim, its set to 5760x1080, if its not the resolution you wanna play the game you may edit "iSize H=1080 iSize W=5760" in the file, as you wish.

Joined: 10 Nov 2011, 01:43 Posts: 34	hello all, I've been trying to use Haydens fixes (I've tried 3, 4a, and 4b). I "INJECT THE PATCH", then start the game but it immediately crashes back to the desktop. BTW I'm using "Radeon PRO" to disable one of my GPUs on my 6990, but I've also tried to start without using Radeon PRO and get the same result (in case anyone was wondering). I've also tried to start the game, ALT+TAB, INJECT, then go back into the game, but that hasn't worked either, it just gives me a black windowed screen and hangs upon trying to re-enter. Is there something else that I was suppose to do (i.e. an .ini file change, or some other requirement I overlooked) Thanks for your time! BTW, my resolution is 5760x1200 with NO bezel comp. (just in case that's important)

After auto detection it states that the aspect ratio is "Standard (4:3 or 5:4)", though when in game things are displayed properly at 5760x1200 (with the exception of the broken menus of course.). BTW, the game does start for me when I DO NOT use Haydens fix.

Joined: 13 Nov 2011, 17:41 Posts: 5	Rage: The double alt tab thing is like.....: You alt-tab and select skyrim. You may get a blank/black window at this point. Then alt-tab again, cycling through your open windows and choose Skyrim again. It should work the second time. If you still have crash problems?! I went with the original TESV.exe file and set it to allow greater than 2GB of memory and that fixed my crashes with the Large Address Aware utility. There are a few different ways to adjust that setting too. If you need a copy of the TESV.exe original, holler. Myself or someone will set you up with it. Just make a backup if your currently used one. The reason people are using the original TESV is because we are unable to allow the memory to go higher than 2GB.. with the latest tesv.exe... it causes an error. I am probably chiming in here out of line, I didn't read the whole dialogue... my 2 cents.

Im still working well/the same with Hayden's 0.3. The 11.11b drivers did create some missing texture problems, purple trees and whatnot. Meaning to roll back to 11.11, but its not game breaking. Fingers crossed that tomorrow's patch does not destroy Hayden's work.

It sounds like something is preventing it from running, because it's modifying the memory and is being classified as spyware or something. If you have anything like Spyware Doctor or any other program that runs with real time protection, disable it or go as far as remove it, because I have seen them cause other problems for members on the Techgage forum. As far as the LAA I don't really think you need it cause you can get the game to run with out the fix, and you are running vanilla Skyrim, so texture loading wouldn't be the issue here. At this point anything else I can think of does not account for the fact you can run it with out the fixes, it has to be a third party program shutting it down because it thinks it is spyware, malware or virus. I don't think AVG is the problem or we would see a more persistent pattern with other WSGF members I think, so I really think it's something rarely used like Spyware Doctor or something close to it. I wish there another scenario I could think of that would be causing this, but I can't, sorry at this point I'm out of ideas. _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

Joined: 19 Nov 2011, 18:16 Posts: 5	This is to everyone (I think I've spotted 3 of us in this thread) whose getting an instant ctd using any of Hayden's fixes. I'm afraid I don't have a solution but I thought I'd let you know that I've tried everything I can think of: I stripped my pc of any unnecessary processes (literally everything), disabled aero and disconnected from the internet. I set my resolution to 5760 x 1080 and defaulted the Skyrim settings (double checking the prefs). I unplugged all my USB devices, except my keyboard and mouse. I uninstalled and removed my dedicated physx card. I updated my drivers (11.11b Cap 1). I disabled the LAA software. Then I set the fix and the TESV.exe to run as administrator and did so by right-clicking too. I injected the fix and and ran the TESV.exe - in case steam was the problem :/ - and it crashed straight away, as usual; actually it was quicker, presumably since there were no background applications. I've since cross checked the system specs of the few people who've had the problem and there doesn't seem to be any correlation beyond all being ATI users but I don't think that's the issue since they're plenty of ATI users in this thread and I doubt it'd be hardware related. Ultimately it's beyond me, there's obviously something minutely wrong that I can't spot. Helifax's fix still works and is very good, so I'm thankful for that. Incidentally, I have removed mods and defaulted everything in prior attempts to fix this.

I haven't tried BF3 because there are just a ton of problems with it and I haven't looked at it since Skyrim came out :bigsmile: . I did try Batman Arkham City, now if anyone was hoping it would fix the DX11 situation, sadly it does not. I ran in DX11 and DX9 modes, and saw no appreciable improvement, in the benchmarks sadly :( . EDIT: Also you have to do the fix as mentioned before by helifax to get Ambient Occlusion working if you are using the LAA fix. I tried it and it worked just fine. Here is his description on what to do: [quote] Ok, after a bit of fooling around:)) I managed to make the 4GB version to use the nVidia 3D Profile and SLI compatibility bits: 1. Download and install nVidia Inspector 2. Start Nvidia Inspector 3. Go to the driver profile settings 4. Select the Elder Scrolls V Skyrim profile 5. Click the button that says "add application to current profile" (small icon of a window with a plus-sign) 6. Navigate to your Skyrim installation and select TESV.exe 7. Before hitting OK in the Filename field append ".4gb" so the result should be "TESV.exe.4gb" 8. HIT OK 9. HIT "Apply changes" 10. Play the GAME AGAIN THIS VALID ONLY FOR THOSE WITH nVIDIA cards in SLI and 3D VISION (SURROUND) Best Regards, Helifax Thanks for the tip. This game really needs AO! The dungeons' interiors are shaded beautifully, but the objects are just floating out there in terms of lighting. Got my driver installed and tweaked, time to give 'er a whirl.

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 13:05 Posts: 35	nvidia driver 290.36 beta - broke the game for me. I'm using Hayden's 0.3 patch (like it the best), but it is unlikely the patch has anything to do with it. Also using 4GB, this combo has been working great all week. Updated to the new driver beta today, now the game crawls down to 5 fps and the resolution is all wrong- 6000x1200, works fine with the 285.79 driver, but it's all stretched and jaggied now. Verified skyrimprefs.ini, also tried manually setting resolution in the 0.3 patch launcher, both results the same. Using 2x 570's. Anyone else have results like this with the new nvidia driver?

I'm afraid I don't have a solution but I thought I'd let you know that I've tried everything I can think of: I stripped my pc of any unnecessary processes (literally everything), disabled aero and disconnected from the internet. I set my resolution to 5760 x 1080 and defaulted the Skyrim settings (double checking the prefs). I unplugged all my USB devices, except my keyboard and mouse. I uninstalled and removed my dedicated physx card. I updated my drivers (11.11b Cap 1). I disabled the LAA software. Then I set the fix and the TESV.exe to run as administrator and did so by right-clicking too. I injected the fix and and ran the TESV.exe - in case steam was the problem :/ - and it crashed straight away, as usual; actually it was quicker, presumably since there were no background applications. I've since cross checked the system specs of the few people who've had the problem and there doesn't seem to be any correlation beyond all being ATI users but I don't think that's the issue since they're plenty of ATI users in this thread and I doubt it'd be hardware related. Ultimately it's beyond me, there's obviously something minutely wrong that I can't spot. Helifax's fix still works and is very good, so I'm thankful for that. Incidentally, I have removed mods and defaulted everything in prior attempts to fix this. Beany (and others). Kayden got me thinking about your issues. Can you try two more things? Firstly, I still suspect somewhere that you have some sort of anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-somethingelse or registry fixer that is doing this. I don't know why, but please see if you have any of these running (or have run them) and let me know. The second thing is entirely ATI related. Use driver 11.9 (yes you read that right), and don't use crossfire if you have two cards. Try these things and let me know!

In Windows desktop, my monitors are being randomly cheddar'd with resolution scaling issues, obviously the driver since nothing else changed. Uninstalled, reverting to 285.79. *Edit* Everything is working as it should (minus Bethesda's support for the PC community that built them) after going back to the previous beta driver. I guess the latest from nvidia just isn't for me.

Joined: 10 Nov 2011, 01:43 Posts: 34	[quote]No worries man! I really appreciate you taking the time!! thanks a ton! I tried the "double ALT+TAB" as advised. I opened the game and selected my current saved game (which I hadn't done before), Upon the first ALT+TAB I got out of the game and injected the patch, then ALT+TAB'ed back to the game and it went to the "windowed black" screen as it did before, upon trying ALT+TAB again, it went back in succesfully, though as soon as i tried to go into any menu (inventory, MAP, etc.) it crashed right away. hmmmm........ thoughts? It sounds like something is preventing it from running, because it's modifying the memory and is being classified as spyware or something. If you have anything like Spyware Doctor or any other program that runs with real time protection, disable it or go as far as remove it, because I have seen them cause other problems for members on the Techgage forum. As far as the LAA I don't really think you need it cause you can get the game to run with out the fix, and you are running vanilla Skyrim, so texture loading wouldn't be the issue here. At this point anything else I can think of does not account for the fact you can run it with out the fixes, it has to be a third party program shutting it down because it thinks it is spyware, malware or virus. I don't think AVG is the problem or we would see a more persistent pattern with other WSGF members I think, so I really think it's something rarely used like Spyware Doctor or something close to it. I wish there another scenario I could think of that would be causing this, but I can't, sorry at this point I'm out of ideas. Thanks for trying man, I went as far as uninstalling AVG (for good measure), and still the crashing continues. I don't have any other spyware/malware software installed, SO I'm STUMPED. I have tried using Helifax's fix, it works, but the HUD isn't centered it's deviated to the left (crosshair and all). My Resolution is 5760x1200 (NO Bezel Comp.). I've tried using your (Kayden) Multi-Montior resolution files (the 5760 version) but it remains the same. Any thoughts on that? UPDATE: I went into the original file, and edited all the parameters that were 1743 to 1920, and all parameters that were 5230 to 5760, and that seemed to work for me, and the hotkeys for books and the map. NO more off centered HUD for me. BTW, does anyone have any info regarding whether Xfire will ever work with this game? I hate that I have a 6990 with two GPUs on it, and I'm only getting the performance of one GPU!

This is with the 4GB fix and 0.4A of HaYDeN's fix. Driver sweeper is standard operating procedure for at least as long as Fermi has been out. My issue was immediate, so anyone else who may have encountered it would know right away. Glad to know it is working for someone, though. I'm kinda scratching my head over what could cause the conflict, since I tend to only apply one change at a time. I'm methodical like that, but the problem came and went with the 290 beta, so whatever isn't playing nice with it was alright with the 285.79 version. Tried settings for the game profile at default, AO on and off, and all iterations with 4gb.exe added to the profile with nvinspector. No changes to the .ini files on either end, so the problem simply went away after removing the new driver. Thanks for the input, I check this thread daily and keep my finger on the pulse. ***update***update***update*** v1.2 does break the game but there is a workaround. Launch Skyrim through steam, exit. Then launch the 4gb loader, alt-tab out and run Hayden's fix. The save game and main menu are still stretched, but once your save is loaded, all is well again- maps, hud, the whole bit. I'm using 0.3, but it probably makes no difference. I bet Bethesda is scanning for the running process on launch and exiting if detected, but the code can still be injected after Skyrim loads. YMMV, FWIW. Edit again- Well, the game is playable at least... we're just a lot closer to square one. Map works, menus are stretched. Got a little excited there and spoke up before I checked it out thoroughly. You can launch with the 4gb fix and play the game, but if you want to see your stats... back to a single screen. Time to get some WSGF powah up in dis hizzy!

So far that seems to be working, 4a and LLA, menus are back. Steam update got turn on again. Im going to watch that like a hawk.

Appearntly they did not only update the TESV.exe What I did was use an Apothecary Satchel and the Alchemy Table. The Satchel did not respond on the keyboard control R (take all) also not with the mouse. On the Alchemy Table when potion was crafted I got like usual the box in wich you have to click ok and there also the mouse would not react. Could only Alt+Tab out of the game and close it.. So Yeah.

chieftex	Post subject: Notes so far (including some Posted: 01 Dec 2011, 03:58
Insiders Joined: 09 Mar 2011, 21:34 Posts: 88	Notes so far (including some fixes/workarounds). Read on! The new patch (1.2) has fixed some things, and broken others (what did you expect)?! Of concern to people in this forum, of course, is compatibility with Hayden's brilliant fix. As he so rightly told me himself, any minute change to the code will break his fix, requiring him to look at it again. But this might not be worth it, as I suspect we will see a new patch very soon. In the mean time, be sure to check the following things to make sure you can run Skyrim properly: 1 - The new bugs. There are a few complaints, such as backwards flying dragons, but the main one that I can personally confirm is that resistances (elemental etc) are broken from this new patch. If you have resistance to fire/ice/whatever, you don't any more! This goes for poison too, and works with enemies as well. Easiest way to see it is to cast fire on a flame atronach - it causes damage when it shouldn't! We have to wait for Bethesda to fix this. 2 - Other bugs. Now this is where it gets interesting. A lot of you remember from before that when the previous patch came out - v1.1 (which we all thought would end the world), you could simply copy your original tesv.exe back to your game folder, and carry on as normal. Before, you were right! But this time, something else has changed. I HIGHLY suspect that the majority of issues people are having are caused by copying the tesv.exe file back into your game folder AFTER patch 1.2. Problems such as those mentioned on the previous page - not being able to put a book down after reading, the take all button not working, the lockpicking keys not working etc. What's else has changed then? The "interface.bsa" file, that's what. If you intend to carry on using v1.1 (or 1.0 for that matter), you need BOTH these files back to the originals, or you'll have all sorts of problems. Bear in mind Hayden's fix won't work with patch 1.2 at the moment, so if you're desperate for widescreen goodness right now, then reverting is your only option. 3 - Apparently, the popular "skyrim 4gb fix" does still work with 1.2! However, some people are reporting that the only way to do so is copy the dll and the skyrim 4gb file directly to your game folder. This is contrary to the skyrim 4gb readme which says you don't have to do that if you don't want to. It's worth a try, but YMMV as always. 4 - Any ATI users here who want to use catalyst 11.11b drivers (that means the 2nd hotfix) AND also want to use the 4gb fix, see here: http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2182 This very simple workaround will let you use both! This is good for single AND crossfire users, as single cards do get a small fps increase by using this driver. 5 - If you have used the "verify integrity of games cache" in steam (normally to restore files to latest order), bear in mind this may reset the option to keep the game automatically updated, if you have chosen not to receive updates automatically.

Joined: 20 Jun 2010, 04:19 Posts: 137	Guys what you need to do is just revert, if you're on W7: Right-click Skyrim in Steam UI, go to settings/whatever and uncheck auto update. Then right-click Skyrim folder in Steam directory, properties, previous versions tab, then copy over last night's version of the game to wherever. Delete the existing Steam folder, replace with the old one. I read that you can avoid Steam auto update by making it not run at startup. If that doesn't work, well, it's trivial to replace the 6 GB Skyrim file with the old one every time, provided the old one is kept on the same drive.

(as well as steamapp config files and MyGames/skyrim). When I launched steam for the first time, then clicked "play", even with update disabled, it loaded 1.2. I killed Haydens fix, then clicked play (again). It was now running 1.2 with badly scaled menus as expected. Immediately exited from Skyrim. Copied the 1.1 skyrim folder back to /common. Started haydens 0.3 fix. Launched from the launcher. Play, continue. Everything is working w/ 1.1 Reboot. Verified again. When started from launcher, does not try to repatch. It may be one of the config files in /common, or perhaps it is maintained on the server, but once it has patched, it did not try to patch again. I can play 1.1. I feel like I am playing on borrowed time. Perhaps eveyone should keep running 1.1 and give Haydn a rest until they break it again, so that he does not chase his tail too much. Thanks again Hayden for your fix.

You can still run the game and use any of the fixes. Or as some people have been doing; run 1.0 without passing through steam. Thx btw guys for the fix :) You should apply to Bethesda, cover letter stating what they need to change in the future to actually win game of the year...

I agree with you, with this new list of bugs, they have to make another patch for skyrim, quite soon too. I hade 1.0 or 1.1 backedup so running on that, and not via steam then, but straight into game, they say its v 1.0, but the TESV im using is from 1.1 from a earlyer post here when the issue emerged. So Hayden give it a litle rest, and yea I know that some of you had bugs with fast travel and such in 1.1, but im guessing with this faliure from Bethesda, they'll probobly make a new patch, but it still might take a cuple of weeks.

Previously, I was running Skyrim with 1.1 and using the 4gb patch, with .HaYden 4B fix. Once I heard of the neg feedback with new patch, I chose not to run 4GB because it would update patch version. So, I put the original Test app back in Skyrim main folder.. did not replace new Test app. Simply changed name to Test 2. Without reverting back to vanilla files, or making 2 copies of Skyrim... Just threw it in, and started with HaYden 4B (so Skyrim version 1.1). After injecting patch, ran Test 2 (original test)... No problems.. no menu issues or map issues (at least not within 4 hour test)... Drivers/performance 11.11b drivers crossfire enabled = 25-34 fps outside, 40's inside - Ultra settings @ 5760x1200. 11.11b drivers crossfire disabled = 40-56 fps outside, upper 50's-lower 60's inside - Ultra settings @ 5760x1200 Um no, 11.11b not scaling well crossfire... _________________ * DFI Lanparty TR2S Plus - Q9550 EO @ 3.8 / Liquid cooled / 2 x Saphire 6970 / 8G Dominator 1066 / 1TB & 500g WD drives / Windows 7 64bit / 3x INC 28" monitors @ 5760x1200 / Xclio FT *

Joined: 30 Jul 2007, 12:38 Posts: 61	Notes so far (including some fixes/workarounds). Read on! The new patch (1.2) has fixed some things, and broken others (what did you expect)?! Of concern to people in this forum, of course, is compatibility with Hayden's brilliant fix. As he so rightly told me himself, any minute change to the code will break his fix, requiring him to look at it again. But this might not be worth it, as I suspect we will see a new patch very soon. In the mean time, be sure to check the following things to make sure you can run Skyrim properly: 1 - The new bugs. There are a few complaints, such as backwards flying dragons, but the main one that I can personally confirm is that resistances (elemental etc) are broken from this new patch. If you have resistance to fire/ice/whatever, you don't any more! This goes for poison too, and works with enemies as well. Easiest way to see it is to cast fire on a flame atronach - it causes damage when it shouldn't! We have to wait for Bethesda to fix this. Hope I've helped! Will these resistances bugs effect savegames made when patch 1.2 was istalled or can this be cured with a new patch?

I also tried Update 4 which loads the game but with a broken start menu so I reverted to Update 1 which works like it did yesterday, completely fine. I also set Steam in offline mode and it shows Skyrim in my Library as "Update Paused" which is FREAKIN FUNNY cause the game is set to NOT UPDATE MY FREAKING FILES VALVE/BETHESDA you bastards... I think I'm going to show a Screen shot on Steam forums of my setting "DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY UPDATE THIS GAME" with the Library menu next to it that says, "Updating Paused" I guess in their defense, they didn't update any files, they deleted the primary so you would then HAVE to update your files.

With my 6 screens (5760x2160) it was not easy to see which was the setting to use: -Plain Auto-Detect? Nope -Auto-Detect + Number Of Monitors to 6? Hell no! -GUI Width: 5760? Oh it works! The lockpicking is not really like it used to be... Did they change it? Well it is a bit on the right side from the center of the screen and there is only the lock on screen with the background being what I was looking at before try to do the lockpicking... Of course, as you said, it is quite dark but we don't really need the visual interface to picks lock. More an hearing thing. Thank you for this fix!

Joined: 30 Nov 2011, 10:36 Posts: 4	I'm just using a basic install of Skyrim 1.2 via Steam, with a tweaked .ini file on win7 x64, monitoring performance with AMD System Monitor. I haven't tried a 4GB patch yet. I have 2x 6950's driving 4x screens in an eyefinity 1+3x1 setup (so 3x1 landscape display with an additional 4th screen with an extended desktop). With the 11.11b drivers and running Skyrim in a window I don't see the second 6950 kick in at all - is this normal? If I run the game full screen I'm seeing some excellent crossfire scaling reported by AMD System Monitor - almost 1:1. I'm dubious about this though - should I trust AMD System Monitor? I haven't tried running it in an eyefinity resolution yet - I was waiting to see if we'd get some better support for it first.

Maybe - until we get the SDK and the tools. It's entirely possible that will allow us to mod the UI and resolve the issue without having to resort to additional apps.

It's entirely possible that will allow us to mod the UI and resolve the issue without having to resort to additional apps. Good luck then waiting. Well yeah thanks. I don't mind the waiting. I won't have half the reported issues purely because I have some patience. Does the game look better at 5760x1080? Yes. Does that mean it's bad at 1920x1080? No - of course not. It does seem to me, reading here and on the Beth forums, that the majority of posters with the largest number of issues are running the 4GB patch and/or the widescreen fix. The problem with that is quite simply that Bethesda won't care. The response to that will be simple - you are using 3rd party apps to manipulate our program, so tough. It basically invalidates your genuine bug reports as soon as you say you are messing about with their game .exe. I'm not saying I agree with it - I think it's exceedingly poor that they haven't included eyefinity/surround/x64/multithreading/multicore support in a game released in Q4 of 2011 - but the game at least *runs* without these features, and it won't help us get a fix out for the problems introduced into the base game with the patch - such as the dragons and damage resistance. Please: If you are going to post a bug report make sure you've verified the bug on your system using the base game - no mods, no ini tweaks, no unsupported resolutions, clean game save. If you can't recreate the bug under those conditions then the chances are Bethesda will just put it down to your own tinkering and ignore it. I would pretty much expect that the 4GB and Widescreen patches will break almost every time Bethesda release a patch - that's just the way it is. It's going to be a long time until the game gets it's final patch, and until then anything the community does will probably require a lot of maintaining, and it's no good complaining about it. Bethesda aren't ever going to patch their game so that our third party fixes continue to work. Why should they? It's their job to fix the bugs in their software, and it's our job to fix the bugs in ours. Simple as that. I don't like the fact that Steam forces updates through even when you have them disabled, but that's a problem for Valve and Steam, not Bethesda. So yeah....slightly off topic /end rant.

This. Because future patches will likely break Hayden's fix, I think it would be reasonable to move forward (Steam allowing) with Patch 1.1. While it may have a few bugs, nothing that is really game breaking. You still get the full game experience, and get to enjoy eyefinity. Even though it is not optimized (and crossfire is not supported), I can run 5760x1080 on a modest 6850 at fairly high detail w/ decent framerate. Honestly, its not impacting my enjoyment of the game that much. At a later date when they release the API or final patch, it would then make sense to update tools, imo.

Thanks for your great work HaYDeN. Markus Yeah, same issues with the map here too. 0.3. and 0.4a were fine however. I think 0.4b used to have identical problems for me, not too sure though if they were exactly the same problems as I used 4b for about 30seconds before switching back to 4a. In my case the map icons only show on the centre monitor and the mouse pointer is highlighting locations a few inches to the left of where the pointer actually is. EDIT: Just noticed the inventory menu and the like are on the leftmost screen, the properties of items are on the rightmost screen and the mana, health and stamina are across the 3 screens too. But I ain't moaning, just some hopefully constructive feedback, the game is very playable again and thanks for the quick 0.7 update Hayden :) EDIT2: LOL, more feedback, unticked auto-detect and set GUI to 1680 and all was well, everything perfect, inventory, map, books etc. Launched the game again but forget to untick auto and the game was still fine???? I dunno but I'm happy. In the middle of all this I turned off fraps and the ATI Tray tools overlays and tried the game, I've enabled them again and the fix is still running perfectly. Seems manually setting GUI width just once corrected the initial bugs for, set on AUTO now and all good, hope that makes sense to you Hayden.

Joined: 26 Jan 2010, 00:20 Posts: 190	11.11c seems to make crossfire work for me now. Scaling varies from very good to barely any in some places. For whatever reason, Hayden's 0.7 fix sometimes breaks with crossfire. The main menu with the continue etc. options are on the sides (not a big deal), the load screen is scrunched (not a big deal), but most importantly the map breaks for some reason (big deal). Surprisingly the game runs very well on a single 5870 anyway so I'm gonna stick with that for now.

Though I am pumped about trying the new one he put together since the latest update. So, now onto a few queries i have....... I noticed that someone mentioned that there is a new catalyst version out (11.11c) that makes xFire work with SKYRIM. Is this the case? I'm using a Radeon 6990, and I've been using Radeon Pro (third party prog.) to disable one GPU, which drives me NUTZ! I hate not being able to utilize the cards full potential. Second,.... I occasionally (and at no specific given time in game) CRASH TO DESKTOP (I realize a lot of people have this problem). Many people have mentioned the "4gb fix" and how that helps stop/lessen the CRASH TO DESKTOP problem. How does one go about enabling/utilizing the "4gb fix" or "LAA" as I've also heard it referred to? thanks

Before I would get 1 CTD every 4 hours or so but yesterday I had about 30 in that time....maybe it was where I was in the game(in the heat of battle in Swindlers Cave)? Quickly tried Hayden's .7-> game boots and runs fine however map is broken now with all of the icons on center monitor and WTF is up with gamepad now? Default config seems to be fine but now my custom config isnt reflected in-game. My only changes are jump button=A, action=B and character/map/inventory=Y Going back to 1.1. hopefully CTD's will be manageable. Seriously Bethesda you suck...you make a strong case for piracy. Is it worth updating to new Nvidia drivers? _________________ [email protected] w/ Hyper 212+ | GA P67A-UD7-B3 | EVGA GTX 580SC SLI | G.Skill Ripjaws 2x4GB | Corsair P3 128GB SSD | WD 1T Caviar Black | Corsair 1200AX PSU | HAF 932 | Asus VG236HEx2 & Asus VG236H

The solution is to use the newest version of the 4GB launcher v1.4 (or higher) and use the following command parameters to start it: Code: Skyrim4GB.exe -laaexe .TESV.exe It is very important, that you do not place the skyrim4gb.exe and the skyrim4gb_helper.dll in the game's directory, cause it would overwrite your original TESV.exe! _________________ My Blog || YouTube Channel || Twitch Stream My PC || Game Screenshots Archive

Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 07:13 Posts: 108	I am loathe to report that the 11.11c drivers are absolute garbage. Crossfired 6850s, show mild negative scaling with absolutely horrible stutter. Radeon Pro (no profile) reports 75% utilization, but game feels like 5-10fps. This is a step back from the 11.11b drivers which had tiny microstutter and menu lags. An even further step back from 11.11a that just disabled crossfire. I have tried using Radeon Pro profiles (Oblivion, Bioshock) but profiles cause even WORSE performance, on order of -200% scaling. Have also tried overriding app settings for AA and AF, with negative results. I am somewhat crestfallen as I had hoped to use my new cards with Skyrim. One card on its own gives marginal fps for eyefinity, I had hopes 2x cards would make it feel good. Dirt 3 worked exceptionally well OTB, with crossfire and eyefinity. It seems that Skyrim is the buggiest game of the year with the worst driver support of all time.

I am not using any 4gb fix as I never had ctd. Try just going ahead and using the 4gb Fix as well, just to see what's going on since I'm now using modded dlls. Even if you didn't use it before, try it: 11.11b drivers 4gb Skyrim: http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1013 (put the exe and dll inside your Skyrim folder where tesv.exe is) 4gb Skyrim Crossfire: http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2182 (put this dll inside the Skyrim folder where tesv.exe is) Launch Steam > Launch Hayden 0.7 and 'Inject' > Launch skyrim4gb.exe This is somehow working great for me. I wasn't seeing anything too different when I first started on 11.11b without the 4gb patch, but I was getting bad CTD. With the 4gb patch, I lost crossfire scaling. With all the stuff I listed, it's now working quite great. I still seem to get a few odd hickups in dungeons, but not bad. Otherwise I'm seeing much higher framerates than single gpu and 99% usage on each GPU watching them in GPU-Z. _________________ Main Box: 3x Dell U2311h 23" Monitors, Intel i7 2600K @4.3Ghz * ASUS P8Z68-V Pro * G.Skill 16Gb DDR3 1866 * ASUS HD6950 DCII 2gb Eyefinity 6 + Sapphire HD6950 2gb Dirt3 Edition [6970 Shader Unlocks, CrossFireX]

Before I would get 1 CTD every 4 hours or so but yesterday I had about 30 in that time....maybe it was where I was in the game(in the heat of battle in Swindlers Cave)? Quickly tried Hayden's .7-> game boots and runs fine however map is broken now with all of the icons on center monitor and WTF is up with gamepad now? Default config seems to be fine but now my custom config isnt reflected in-game. My only changes are jump button=A, action=B and character/map/inventory=Y Going back to 1.1. hopefully CTD's will be manageable. Seriously Bethesda you suck...you make a strong case for piracy. Is it worth updating to new Nvidia drivers? Yes..Controller support ..is F_CKED........also I noticed dead dragon pop-in out in the sky and falling down like a rock when I enter a new zone (from a city to "Skyrim") and ofc the flying backwards dragons....WTF..... Also another THING!!!! if you migrate from 1.1->1.2 SAVEGAMES WORK if you migrate from 1.2->1.1 SAVEGAMES DO NOT WORK (They are not even seen in the load game menu)... They managed to break more than they could fix... I am looking for version 1.3 of the game.... Hopefully it will be playable again...as now...waaaaay to many things are simply...broken (Did a clean reinstall of Skyrim) _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

I've been trying to get the game stable enough to actually play now all day today. My main problem is constant CTD's - on start, and every five or ten minutes (walking outside or change of scenery mainly causes it I think). I'm pretty sure the 4GB launcher would help a lot but I cannot figure out how to get it to work with HayDen's launcher. Is it possible to use the two together? If so could you please tell me how that is done. Is HayDen's fix started via command parameter? Or Alt-Tabbing out? When you say place the .dll and the .exe in any folder and start the .exe you are skipping to many steps to make it coherent. Thanks in advance!

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 13:05 Posts: 35	Just a status update on my end: With Hayden's 0.7 and v1.2 skyrim using the 1.4 version of the LAA patch, running 285.79 beta drivers, I'm enjoying a smooth game. I removed all mods (just the face fix package and glowing ore), performed a Steam cache validation and just let it repair itself, then applied the LAA patch, launched UI 0.7, and played for the last couple hours. There are some funny things here and there, like trees in midair and a flashy polygon now and again. I tried the 290.36 driver again, re-downloaded it for integrity, and I still am at a fail state with it. I am guessing, since nobody else has the problem, that it has to do with the driver and my monitors (I run 10-bit CLUT calibrated IPS panels) so maybe that's it. I'll just have to do without ambient occlusion for awhile longer. Probably no much of a loss considering how badly the shadows are degraded in this pseudo-DX10 console port of a game anyway... Anyhow, I have no problems with map scaling, fast travel, inventory, or R and Tab key issues when opening containers like some have reported. 0.7 is just nice! Thanks for saving some of my Friday night plans with your quick answer to Bethesda's ham-handed forced update.

I recently tried the 4GB launcher, in conjunction with the ati 4G dll (I would have preferred the command line switches to your launcher, but I am a linux guy and Win7 wouldn't let me attach options to the symbolic link I created to start the launcher.. ) My setup is Skyrim 1.1.21, Radeon 11.11c, Sapphire 6850x2 (1G), AMD [email protected] I was initially testing crossfire on a single screen with the 11.11c. It *seemed* like I was getting fps improvement (fraps) in Whiterun on subsequent A/B loads (against crossfire turned off). The problems began when I went to test a 5760x1080 setup. FPS seemed good when facing a certain direction and runnign forward in whiterun, but when changing facing, I was getting severe stutter, which led me to believe it was doing some swapping. Perhaps crossfire requires additional memory of tesv.exe? So thus I installed the 4G patch and reverted to 1920x1080. The problem I was getting was flashing of the menus and flashing of parts of my character (head). I did not do extensive testing to figure out what else was broken. Does the latest 4G launcher only work with Skyrim 1.2? Or was I doing something wrong? I can run skyrim w/o crossfire on "high" (minus AA), and get mid20s-45 in town, 45 outside, and 60 inside. Trying to run CF with eyefinity seems to require the 4GB launcher, and that is not working for me. without artifacts. Its as if only one GPU is rendering menus and certain actors in game, causing them to flash. The graphics in this game are nothing to write home about, difference between high an ultra is small, I'm starting to think that trying to get CF/eyefinity to work with patches is not worth the time to get the same framerate with just a bit better detail. As I can run on high with one card, I may give up on CF /eyefinity. Edit: I just did some more testing in 1920x1080. There is 0% crossfire scaling. I can run the game in ultra (high detail shadows), with 30-60fps on a single card. I give up.

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 06:34 Posts: 64	Thanks again HaYDeN for the quick fix! My experience with 0.7 is the following: Everything works great except for 2 things. 1. Map is scrunched on middle monitor. (Annoying but still minor) EDIT - Did some fiddling, using -(minus) to disable before going into the map makes it work right? Found that interesting. 2. Load screens scrunched. (No big deal) What is odd though is I seem to get slightly different results each time (I'm going to assume its because of not restarting the injector) but overall it works! :) -Neovalen p.s. Char creation works great, only thing we can't do is turn the characters head like in single screen but its not important. Thanks so much!

kiax0001	Post subject: Hey Guys,Figured I would Posted: 03 Dec 2011, 01:45
Joined: 21 May 2011, 01:58 Posts: 47	Hey Guys, Figured I would post my findings too. I'm running a ATI 5870x2 configuration and I also updated to the new 11.11c drivers. It looks like I'm having the same issues as everyone else (squished map and loading screens, main menu starts on the right, etc.) As soon as I disable crossfire everything works again. Very wierd.... I'm actually very dissapointed with ATI/AMD at the moment because this game has now been officially out for 3 weeks and they can't seem the get the proper driver support out to the consumers. It first started with Rage, then Battlefield 3, and now with Skyrim. It's very dissapointing to have to wait 3 weeks for a crossfire profile when it doesn't even work as smooth as running one card!! I thought the point of seperating crossfire profiles out from drivers was that they can release it sooner but it seems like everytime a new game comes out they can't fix crossfire without updating the entire driver through a "performance driver". I've owned 2 5870's since they were released and I think I've disabled one card in eyefinity about 90% of the time. If I had known this would happen I wouldn't have spent the extra $400 when I purchased my comp. It's also dissapointing to know that Nvidia had proper driver support one day BEFORE the game was released. I don't want to hate on the 5870's because I still think they are excellent cards but this driver support is making me go haywire. I'm sorry If I'm ranting and this probably isn't the best place for it but I'm just furious that once again the solution is to disable the 2nd card. Are there any suggestions as to what to purchase to enjoy either eyefinity or Nvidia surround and have a "smooth" framerate? It would probably have to be one powerful ATI card to avoid microstutter or 2 Nvidia cards in SLI. Is there any microstutter with 580x2?'s Thanks, kiax0001

I have two 6850s, and with 11.11b, and 11.11c, I am only getting 30-40% utilization of both gpus in MSI afterburner. What is maddening, is that some people report they are getting 99% scaling, able to run eyefinity, etc. But I am just running a plain vanilla 1.1 version of skyrim and cant get it to go above -20% scaling with two cards. Furthermore, I'm not sure if AMD is lying about the drivers to make it seem like they responded in a reasonable time, or if they are incompetent and only got it working on a small subset of test configs. Is this par for the course with crossfire? I've been using it for less than a month and the other two games I played with it get 99% utilization (but they were 6 month old titles.) Can the community offer any insight into why CF is not working with 11.11c? Is there anything I could be doing wrong? I am just running 1920x1080 for testing and would be happy to see any positive CF scaling at this standard resolution. I removed CAPS. Radeon Pro is not running. I checked the executable name (TESV.exe), to make sure the 4GB fix is not running. Used complete uninstall and driver sweeper between driver upgrades. WTF? Could there be a little known bios setting?

Joined: 01 Dec 2011, 19:57 Posts: 74 Location: Toronto	Hiya guys.. A quick note on what's going on with Ati Xfire. Basicaly your not seeing what you expect. Skyrin (currently) does not max out anything unless you force it. Saw a laptop with High settings, neither CPU or GPU were maxxed. He ran Skyrin in a window w/Ati scalling off, so part of desk' was showing Taskmanager and AMD system monitor. What Ati does is adjust the speed/scaling(CF) to help with the "micro stuttering". So you see some differance in the 2(or more) GPU usages and 'not full' usage from Skyrim. <-- If you notice my hardware I list a Samsung ux226 monitor, what it doesn't say is that it has a "USB port Monitor" mode. It adds a 4th monitor hangin off the USB. Great for utils' like Taskman, AMD system monitor, email, cheat sheets or whatever. The refresh is slow via USB but no matter. (it has DVI and vga too) (also of note it has a wee USB ROM with the software to run it) (and it could 'chain' 6 more!) Basicaly I can 'peek' in realtime the usages.. Its cool I love that thing. CPU never getts close to max' (AMD [email protected]), GPU's mostly max' inside and rarly 'outside' in the wilds. (2x5870) Further 11.11b mostly for 6xxx CF, minor 5xxx tweeks +2 - 7% 11.11c mostly for 5xxx CF, and other tweeks. ..ya, I admit I actualy read the release notes. (sigh) I don't always remember them crrectly tho.. My Skyrim 1.1 running better with 11.11c and CF on. Much, much smother not a big FPS boost. (no other MODs 'cept Haydens, and the night sky upgrade texture) Still in Steam "Offline" mode, letting others do my beta testing.(smirk) _________________ - AMD 965 @3.8 - Gigabyte 790fx ud5 - AMD 7970 Ghz - OCZ Reaper 4GB - OCZ Vetex - Eyefinity 3x Asus vw266h - Samsung t260hd + 226ux - (soundcard) - Sony 5.1 ~700w - PC P&C 750w - Corsair K60 -

Same with flight simulator or crysis 2 and all....Just hoping they would patch it eventually to allow that or maybe Matrox may allow something eventually?

Running clean version of v1.2 Skyrim (didn't change or modify any files from the patch the other day) 3). Running your 0.7 skyrim tool 4). Running clean Catalyst 11.11c (no errors during installation). 5). Injecting before launching Skyrim 6). Run skyrim either through steam directly or I have installed v1.4 4gb tool with the command parameters that were recommended Results are mixed. Sometimes your tool works flawlessly and other times the map is squished. I realized that if I play around with the iShadowMaskQuarter setting in Skyrim preferences (change it to 3,4,5) it adjusts some of the menus in the game (It's currently set to 4). I don't think there's anything wrong with your tool but do you think it has something to do with the byte pointer value not being set properly sometimes?

It's worked everytime so far for both running from steam directly as well as the 4gb tool. The only thing that remains squished now is the loading screen but the important thing is the map is working properly now. I'm assuming from the filename you delayed the read time before applying the byte pointer value adjustment? Thanks for the quick response and update. kiax0001

I could attempt to reduce the delay between launching and patching, but patch too quickly and it will crash because the code isn't even in memory yet. What sort of disk access do you have?

Cinnabuns	Post subject: So I took the leap and Posted: 03 Dec 2011, 06:34
Insiders Joined: 12 Dec 2006, 20:37 Posts: 170	So I took the leap and updated my game to 1.2. Running 4GB fix update 4, and HaYDeN's v0.7 UW patch. When I start the UW patch I change the World and Hands FOV both to 80, leave all other settings alone, launch game. Game menu is on the right hand screen, Dragon emblem is on the center screen but the proper size. Continue game and Map is on all three screen but the Icons are all on the center screen and I have to mouse around on the right monitor to change location selection on the center monitor which is wierd. So I exited game, I deselected "Auto-Detect Resolution" and put in 1972 ( 5916 / 3 ) bezel corrected. Launch the game. Now the menus are on the center screen, everything works correctly except the map which is again spanned across all three monitors but all the icons are on the center screen. So I exit the game and remove 1972 from the GUI Width box and put in 1920. Launch the game. Everything works, menus are correct, Map is correct, lock picking is zoomed and well lit, scrolls/books both read/work fine AND the surprising thing is that bezel correction is still working. Odd that I can have my resolution at 5916x1200 bezel corrected and run the offset at 1920 instead of 1972 and everything is where it should be but hey, it works, no complaints here :) Now to fix the resistances. Thank you, HaYDeN. _________________ i7 sandy 4.4ghz with a snorkel 1080gtx 8gb RAM Gigabyte P67-UD7 rev.

Rest is on my profile here. Neovalen, Couple of Quick checks: 1). What is the value of the iShadowMaskQuarter setting in your skyrim pref? If it's 5 change it to 3 or 4 and see if that helps. 2). Are you on version steam 1.2? If so verify the integrity of the game files and make sure your not using any modified files. 3). Are you using the new 11.11c drivers? The original 0.7 version worked for alot of people (including me) originally before updating to 11.11c drivers to use crossfire. After updating to 11.11c the map was squished when crossfire was enabled. The new versions Hayden released should alleviate that issue now. kiax0001

Remove ENB Series d3d9.dll and any FXAA Injectors/Enhanced Shaders. (Now all versions work 0.7 + both updated files + 0.8 ) If your feeling extra generous an ENB compatible version would be awesome, but honestly I'm fine doing the workaround(disable before map) and don't want to make you work more. I'm sure 1.3 will be around the corner and we'll likely be back at square one anyways. Thanks for your awesome work HaYDeN. Honestly surprised even with the ENB patches and such it runs almost flawless. Again, sorry for that, I forgot it was installed! (Let this be a lesson kids)

Insiders Joined: 12 Dec 2006, 20:37 Posts: 170	For you guys having the map issue, mine was also doing that and this is how I fixed it. Have you tried this? Deselect "Auto Detect Resolution". Put in the number of the width of ONE of your monitors, NOT the bezel corrected size but the actual horizontal size of one monitor. For example, I'm running 5916x1200 so bezel corrected one monitor would be 1972. But my monitors are 1920 each so I put 1920 in to GUI Width and everything works properly, this fixed the map for me.' Using Auto Detect or 1972 with Auto Detect off didn't work. Also, it did not affect my bezel correction. Bezel correction still works. I tested on 2x570's, Skyrim no mods at all, so YMMV. _________________ i7 sandy 4.4ghz with a snorkel 1080gtx 8gb RAM Gigabyte P67-UD7 rev.

Your fov seems to be quite high, you can noticeably lessen the effect by reduce fov. Test it easily in game by pressing ` (this is they key directly below the ESC key, or directly left of the 1 key. then simply type: fov 80 or whatever other number between say 60 and 100. When you are happy with one, use that number in Hayden's tool.

Joined: 08 Nov 2011, 21:59 Posts: 38	I have a general question for both HaYDen and/or Helifax. It looks as if you guys are gonna be at it every other week with the rate they are supposed to be coming out with patches. Given how far you have dug into the game to fix the menus, do you suppose it might be possible for someone to just redo an interface like DarNified UI that works well with multi-monitor setups, or will we have to deal with this stuff every other week? I am running version 1.0 and I've had no problems at all with HaYDen's v4 solutions. I rarely run into any trademark Bethesda oddities. I think I'm gonna stick with this until a major update is released. Does anyone know if the mod QD Inventory works with HaYDen's fix?

ENBSeries(http://enbdev.com/download_en.htm) patches are included with Skyrim Enhanced Shaders (bug fixes and feature enhancements). I am also using the 4GB Patch and SKSE (Skyrim Script Extender - http://forums.bethsoft.com/index.php?/topic/1288179-wipz-skyrim-script-extender-skse) I imagine all of this makes changes some of the resulting memory addresses. Hopefully we find a recompiled interface script soon (maybe with the dev kit in January) so we don't have to rely on memory hacks anymore. Using all of these just makes it a different game (for the better!)... Just look at the screens (especially enhanced shaders) and you'll see what I mean.

I'm using FXAA High from the launcher and not having any issues at all. No backward flying dragons so far (7 hours of play, I've see like 5 of them) either. BF3 also has crazy issues if you start jacking with settings though. If you set them once to what you know works after deleting the prefs.ini and then launch the game performance is good. Haven't tried this with Skyrim but its worth a shot. Reason I say that is, I haven't touched my settings in the launcher since I initially launched the game v1 retail Steam install. Try deleting your skyrim.ini & skyrimPrefs.ini, pull up launcher and set the way you want (mine is all maxed 4xAA, 16xAF, FXAA on) launch the game to title screen NOT using 4GB or HaYDeN patches so it recreates the .ini(s), exit game, edit .ini with your resolution and only other change I made was fshadowdistance=3000 cause at Ultra its 8000. Then launch the game with HaYDeN's fix and 4GB launcher if you're using it. That's what worked for me on Nvidia hw and I haven't and don't jack with settings or mods at all. Haven't changed settings or edited my .ini since I installed. The game is still in a buggy state, obviously. Using mods right now is only going to frustrate the user in my view cause its just stacking broken on top of broken. _________________ i7 sandy 4.4ghz with a snorkel 1080gtx 8gb RAM Gigabyte P67-UD7 rev.

Joined: 25 Nov 2011, 05:36 Posts: 5	Not that this will matter much, since hayden is at .8, but as of late last night Ive had to switch from .4A to .4B. The quest that did it was the one to enter Dushnikh Yal, the Orc 'town'. You have to prove yourself worthy, and go fetch an item (which was right by a dragon). Once I handed the item in, I was made family, and I saw 'Map Updated' in the top left corner of my screen. I checked my map and sure enough, it was all screwed up but .4B now works fine. Even going back to a previous save will not make it revert to .4A. This isnt a complaint, .4B works fine, just an FYI. It appears to me the flag that's set when you become family to the orcs and Dushnikh Yal, Mor Khazgur, and Narzulbur are added to the map, thats when .4A became not working. Thanks for making the game playable on widescreen!

Joined: 05 Dec 2007, 08:54 Posts: 78	I was using 4b before with 1.1 and everything worked fine(minus the skill tree menu). Once 1.2 came out I started using .8 and everything seemed to work fine until I started saving. Anytime I would save(quick or regular) the game would crash. So I reloaded and tried to quick travel and I was at the desktop once again. I reverted to 1.1 and 4b and everything is fine. I also tried 1.2 by itself and I still couldn't save, so I'd just revert to 1.1 if I were you. The game was unplayable for me with it. Does anyone else get squashed perks in the skill menu? The main skills and stars are fine, but the description of each star(perk) in the skill trees doesn't match up with it's "star" and if you click on one, it takes you to a completely different perk. It looks squashed like the map was in .8(if I didn't relaunch .8 before launching Skyrim again).

Hayden had his new tool ready in a couple days, and since upgrading both, I've had no in game problems. I'm running vanilla 1.2 with ini tweaks to fix shadow flicker. 1.2 Still doesnt clean up dragon bones in Whiterun, and I have not noticed any pros/cons to it over 1.1. I upggraded in hopes of getting crossfire to work, but it did not help.

I tried to enable FXAA again but first I ran the game with it off, then I enabled it and the map was working fine, just like the first time so it might have had something to do with my injector, sprinting with the shadows a problem. Then I tried what you said with the ini files and the map worked with fxaa on, then I tried to sprint....unfortunately it was broke as well and it only happens when I sprint. This could be a mod issue since I have heavily modded this game or it can be an issue with ver 1.2, I didn't have a problem before then. I guess I will just have to live with it until a new patch comes out, if it still remains there I will figure out which mod is causing it and get it sorted. There is no point on going on wild goose chase if the problem is with the update. For now I have FXAA back on and I am going to restart and get something to eat, if the problem comes back with the map, then I know it has something to do with drivers with the map. When I did have the problem btw, the hotkeys did nothing for more but move it to the left monitor. Either way I hope to get you more info on this HaYDeN. _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

I did the restart and this is what I came up with. restart comp + fxaa enabled = broken map http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/594703803982257404/73B3798DA616C4FE2DB852D4F052AD5361BDC28B/ leaving fxaa on + ran again = working map http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/594703803982279318/5140206BC65D36E06F5831036EC09729D9DE7B00/ This means that it FXAA is indeed the problem as is not being ran correctly for what ever reason, the first time ran. This does not mean that it will not happen again after you see it working once, all this means is that the FXAA is effectively the wild card causing the map problems, it might work for some but not all in every scenario. TURN FXAA OFF AND REMOVE AND ANY FXAA INJECTORS, IF YOU ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE MAP!!!! I plan to just the feature off, there is no improvement to the fps with AA enabled and the post processing isn't something that I have missed. If you do want to keep around just know you may have to restart your game SEVERAL times for the map to work before the next patch, from either HaYDeN or Bethesda....my money is on HaYDeN. 8) _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 15:03 Posts: 16	I updated Skyrim to 1.2 so I could use the new UW fix and maybe get better frames. The fix works, but now I can't look up or down. The Y sensitivity for the mouse in-game is so low it's practically locked. How is this a good idea in a game where you have to pick things off the ground a lot? I ran it without the UW fix and it's obviously the 1.2 Skyrim update. Is there any information about fixing this so I can look at the ground without running my mouse down the mouse pad 20 times? I'll have to revert to 1.1 for now.

Helifax, he is using a quad core cpu @ 3.2ghz, i highly doubt its not enough hehe. sure its no i7 but its plenty. 4gb ram is low, but again unless you using the custom launcher the game never really draws that much system memory anyway. i think the max i ever saw was close to 1.5. win7 takes up about a gig to a gig and a half to run. then you you another ~500mb for running your daily crap. leaving you with 2-2.5gb, should be ok really. im leaning toward its being used for physx _________________ Asus P8P67 Pro, I7 2600k @ 4.6Ghz, 8gb, 250GB SSD/ 4TB Mechanical, Modded GTX 780TI, 3x AOC 27" IPS 5760x1080

Joined: 01 Dec 2011, 16:38 Posts: 6	Hi all, I didn't mean the 480 was a problem, just a curiosity. I think it would be great if nVidia made the drivers use the 480's 1.5 gigs of ram...I have the physx indicator turned on and there is no indication of physx being used in Skyrim that the NV drivers notice. The 480 is in there for physx. As for my system, yeah she's old but she's been great. I plan on building a 6 core ivy bridge around the 590 (maybe get another 590). As for my system ram amount, it's been plenty with everything turned up at that monster res without a hiccup. Edit: I'm not running any mods. I did turn on tree self shadows in the ini. though.

Surprisingly, game does and has run great on my older rig (except the 590 is new) regardless of the Skyrim .exe version. Only problem I have is low (20s) FPS in towns/villages at 5670x1200. At 1920x1200 on one monitor no low FPS. Memory use on vid cards via. precision only moves in big chunks based on how much AA I use. All settings on and maxed out. Precision says my 3rd GPU (GTX480) memory is also being allocated in the same amounts as the 590's memory. Is this true? Do the drivers use the 480's memory as extra as needed? I have one bug that I know of. After killing the first dragon and absorbing it, the game still reports I have collected zero souls. I can still use shouts though. Using .8 now no probs as 1.2 broke .4a for me. beta 290.36 Q6700 at 3.2Ghz, 4GB 1000mhz RAM, X-Fi Elite Pro, 5.1 3x24" SyncMaster 60Hz GTX590, GTX480 My only question is, what mods are you running? When I installed the realistic water and rain mod, my performance tanks when there is a lot of dynamic water around. Like when I went back to the marsh area, with a lot of visible hot springs (namely coming down from the hill where the Dragon icon is on your map, lower right), I would hit 15 fps at 5760x1080, then to verify it was a mod I went back to 1920x1080 and the fps was the same, until I moved away from the area. Seriously, no setting changes would give me more then 15 fps no matter what. If you are running mods, it could be the culprit rather then your rig in general. I also have the periodic problem of towns giving me low fps, I am not a 100% certain as to the culprit but again I think it is mods because I usually get it in towns that have been re-textured, like Whiterun. I also think your RAM is a little low as well, you should be sporting at least 8gb on that dual channel memory board, especially if you are running HD mods and using the LAA. is it possible that its using it as a seperate physx engine? i know if you have a seperate card it can do that, and if you left it on auto (the default) that may be the case. Helifax, he is using a quad core cpu @ 3.2ghz, i highly doubt its not enough hehe. sure its no i7 but its plenty. 4gb ram is low, but again unless you using the custom launcher the game never really draws that much system memory anyway. i think the max i ever saw was close to 1.5. win7 takes up about a gig to a gig and a half to run. then you you another ~500mb for running your daily crap. leaving you with 2-2.5gb, should be ok really. im leaning toward its being used for physx Phsyx is not utilized in this game. The game uses the Havok physics engine and that is all CPU based, the CPU he is running is quad core so it should be able to handle Havok just fine. _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

I think it would be great if nVidia made the drivers use the 480's 1.5 gigs of ram...I have the physx indicator turned on and there is no indication of physx being used in Skyrim that the NV drivers notice. The 480 is in there for physx. As for my system, yeah she's old but she's been great. I plan on building a 6 core ivy bridge around the 590 (maybe get another 590). As for my system ram amount, it's been plenty with everything turned up at that monster res without a hiccup. Edit: I'm not running any mods. I did turn on tree self shadows in the ini. though. Edit: also the cores aren't being fully utilized, nor is sli being fully used...as it is in BF3. Well you are not going to see to the see game take full advantage of all your CPU's cores all the time. The reason being is because this engine is programmed for dual core primarily, the fact Skyrim recommends quad core is primarily for Havok. As far as the SLI load, that is on nvidia. I don't think they have sussed out the full potential for Skyrim on SLI and that could be because they used a similar profile to what was used for FONV or Oblivion, just to cut corners and get it out the door quickly. As far as you not running any mods, has me a little stumped as to what is causing the problem. If you turn off the tree shadows, what happens? Also, I think the new patch killed the performance a little. I just think no proof aside from the mods, but I can't go back to 1.1 save files after you have saved with 1.2. )c: Also if you are looking to get a 6 core, you might want to hold off a little longer. With the X79 coming out there are many models that have 2 8pin additional power connections and if you look at the dye of the new i7-3960X, you will see that there are two additional spots that have nothing in them. This all adds up to me thinking that there is a 8 core coming, and by spring we might hear something on it. If you are wanting to upgrade sooner though, the i7-3960X is still a damn good CPU to get. EDIT: I forgot to mention that many people reported having troubles using Skyrim HD and that I have had a few CTD, along with a friend of mine who is vanilla as well. That's why I think 1.2 broke something other then game play mechanics. EDIT 2: Actually you can go back to ver 1.1 but you have to have a few other files. I have verified my 1.2 save files will load with these 1.1 file replacements. I am going to check my performance here is a second. Here are the files: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2263471 EDIT 3: During my test my fps went back up to 37 to 42 fps in that marsh area I described when only getting 15fps max even at 1920x1080, to make sure it wasn't a fluke I tested in both night and mid day lighting. My shadow flickering when I spring is GONE, so it was the patch all along. I still have the backwards flying dragons but they are the ones I couldn't collect souls from before and after the patch, no big loss for me. Go back to ver 1.1 if you guys are having poor FPS. _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

I wasn't referring to the CPU:) but the somehow limited memory... only 4Gbs. Theoretically it should be enough...practically well..Windows has a weird way of spanning in the RAM and afterwards dumping on your HDD (you know the pagefiles) which kills your performance... Other than this try to remove the GTX480 and run only the GTX590...maybe is a driver issue. Physx is not used in this game..so do not worry about it..:) _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

If I can get this fixes I'll be well pleased! :) With ver 1.1 I had to fiddle with "fShadowDistance" and "fShadowLODStartFade". The "fShadowDistance" default for Ultra is 8000, I ended up going to 10000, and the "fShadowLODStartFade" is 200.0000 for Ultra, then I went to 3000.0000. The flickering started after I enabled tree shadows, and giving that extra distance helped me. The same result could not be achieved with ver 1.2 for some reason. EDIT: These are located in SkyrimPrefs.ini under [Display]. If you want to keep note of what the default is, just start a new line under it, starting with // this way the info after is not read by the game. _________________ Azza Fusion 4000 Liquid Cooled Full/Mini-ITX Tower - AMD Ryzen 1700x CPU - Tt Water 3.0 Ultimate CPU Cooler - ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Extreme - 2x EVGA GTX 980 in SLI - Geil 16GB - Klipsch 5.1 THX Speakers - Vertex 4 128GB SSD, Sandisk 256GB SSD, Samsung 512GB 850 PRO SSD, WD Black 320GB & Two times Toshiba 5TB (one for Games and the other for Storage) - Logitech G502 - Corsair K65 RGB - Logitech G13 - Win10 Pro 64bit - 2-over-1 Viewsonic VA2448M 24" (2x 1920x1080 Secondary) & Samsung CHG90 Series Curved 49" (3840x1080) - Ergotech Monitor Stand - Shout out to WSGF for the upgrade on my stand!

I'll give the tweaks a try when I look into it next. I am overall pleased with what I do get considering all the problems people seem to be having on the steam forums. It seems like a lot of probs are with guys on newer systems and only one moni. I did check out task manager a few minutes ago with my typical res and things turned to max and the exe was only using around 800 megs of ram (and precision reports 4608 megs of vid ram used). I think I'll go ask about the 480's memory use on the nvidia forums. Thanks guys for the time and effort.

NightWatch	Post subject: 1.3 = dead 0.8 Posted: 07 Dec 2011, 21:38
Joined: 07 Dec 2011, 20:31 Posts: 16	Hello all this is my first post on WSGF. I have been viewing the site on and off for some time but did not get really interested until I got Skyrim and all the associated problems! Just to chime in with my findings on Skyrim update 1.3 that I installed earlier today. For me, the updated TESV 'kills' Hayen 0.8. 0.4A and 0.3 - that is, I start up Hayden x.x inject patch then start TESV to play Skyrim. For my efforts, I get the Skyrim launcher screen and, on pressing play, my monitors go black with the windows 'working' donut for a second or so then return to desktop (CTD maybe). I have not had chance to test the new TSV with Hayden x.x and with the 4GB LAA fix just yet! Back to TESV1.2 for me for now. I have not as yet been able to make a contribution to support the fine work of Hayden or others as I am a bit cash strapped at moment - I will try in the near future to do so though. For now, thanks Hayden and all for the great works. /rant (You guys can ignore this bit if you like! I do not wish to derail the main thread topic.) There is a really important question hanging in the air here! Why, when other types of businesses are legally bound to release product or services that are as described and are fit for inteded purpose out of box, has the gaming industry moved to what they seem to think is a perfectly acceptable 'release it broken - fix it if we get hassled - patch later' model with an attitude that seems to be 'take the money and ignore cunsumer law and consumer complaints'? Surely this is bordering on (if not outright) illegal with regard to consumer law (I'm in the UK)! I understand that, sometimes, a bug slips by QA and that modern games require vast amounts of coding and resources and that patches or updates (even on an otherwise complete product) can be very much of benefit to the consumer. I know though that when I pay for something new, I expect to get a fully functional item that is suitable for purpose and as advertised (and I do not mean in the microscopic small print!) It is, in a way, a shame that Beth and other game makers are made to look so utterly incompetent when third party coders / modders can do what gamers are asking for and should have from the outset, in (usually) a few days or so, and the gaming companies seem unable or unwilling to. /rant Edits: My spellink and granma are horrid at times. :)

Also, when I get the worst of the stutter, I also get sound stutter. First of all... Thats a HUGE res for two 6870s. I'm having some issues with 6950s in crossfire and a 955BE at 4.0ghz with 10gb DDR3 @ 5040x1050. ,but with all that said.. get the 4gb skyrim patch ( prevents widescreen crashing ) with Radeon Pro set to Bioshock ( for crossfire ) have really helped my frame rates at ultra ( 30-75) I'm going to use Vanilla Skyrim until somebody comes up with a legitimate fix to end all widescreen crossfire fixes. Here is the weird part, I don't change any settings in skyrim between crossfire and non crossfire, and single card runs amazing at that res on high, where at CFX runs like sheit. _________________ "If Bethesda won't fix it, the community will!" -me

This is the biggest problem for sure. I wouldn't blame Hayden if he waited for the next patch to come out.

Joined: 07 Dec 2011, 20:31 Posts: 16	I'm about done for the night - thought I'd post findings; I did an uninstall then reinstall of Skyrim and allowed the update. If trying to run the game in any variation of eyefinity, with or without 4GB LAA Fix or with or without any Hayden Fix, I still get these three errors - and maybe more (testing limited to time); a, 'floating' NPCs - they glide along the floor in a fixed stance and with no walking animation. b, pressing 'q' still brings up the 'quick' menu - it is unusable though and only allows exiting with 'q' or 'tab'. c, cannot fast travel - click a site on map and map quits with no message at all. When I turn monitors to either 'duplicates' or 'extended' game (1.3) runs fine as far as I can see both with and without 4GB LAA fix - no Hayden fix needed or used. Beth seem to be on to ya Hayden! LOL. Either that or they are inadvertantly pouring petrol on to the flames of customer dissapointment in a futile attempt to quell them. With my evening of relaxed gaming ruined, I have decided to shut PC down and retry the game in a few days. Thanks Beth!

Also, when I get the worst of the stutter, I also get sound stutter. I have done massive testing to get CF to work with 2x6850. The only way to get positive scaling with these cards, is with certain settings in CCC, this highest settings for AA and AF. When AA and AF are on ultra in the game, and CCC, you start to see positive scaling, but there is stutter, and the framerate is not great with 1920x1080, but playable. The problem is that if you want a larger resolution or more fps and lower your AA settings, CF scaling disappears. So it really only useful for lower resolution scenarios where one wants more detail, not more fps. Its still broken, imo.

Disconnect your internet connection, restart Steam, and play using whatever fix was working for you prior to the 1.3 update.

The script extender people just released a 1.3 compatible version, and the 4 gig launcher still works. Guys, I am not so sure Bethesda is doing something wrong . They are fxing bugs and adding features, which we want. It is not like they are breaking mods on purpose. I am as anyone that we got a ported over version of the Xbox build complete with a ui made for a controller, but they are also adding what they need to like 4 gig support in the next patch (or shortly)

Go to your Steam installation, common folder, right click on the skyrim folder, right click, go to Previous Versions, select a date before the patch, and click Restore. Disconnect your internet connection, restart Steam, and play using whatever fix was working for you prior to the 1.3 update. That's what I am doing, only using my phone for internet until it's fixed heh. I'll have to do this tonight, but rather stay connected to the internet, make sure my "do not update" is turned on and see if Steam is not just blowing smoke on the do not update fix.

The reason for this is automatic version detection, it should now be compatible with 1.1/1.2 and 1.3 but I would like to test this before releasing but its possible it might have some quirks with non-mass regional settings. Please PM me if you fall in the category above. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

It's great they're fixing things, and surely they're not breaking the mods on purposes. The point is, they should have built widescreen support into the game from the start. Considering 2 developers here have been able to backwards engineer their way into the game and make it work in just a few weeks during their spare time, there's no excuse for Bethesda to not have been able to build it into the game in the first place.

Joined: 08 Dec 2011, 20:18 Posts: 3	Hayden, out of curiosity how complicated would it have been for Bethesda to have supported Eyefinity out of the box? When I loaded Skyrim for the first time, it didn't even offer a resolution above 1920*1080. I guess "natively supporting" Eyefinity means the game's architecture allows it? I tried restoring the game to a previous version as was suggested. "There are no previous versions" is what I got lol. Everytime Hayden fixes this game, Bethesda releases a new 'patch' (which are some of the worst patches I have seen: cleaning up dead wedding guests? Really? How about fixing some of the quests so you can finish them? I had to work some magic JUST to finish the Thieves Guild questline") and it breaks it. Bethesda will EASILY have 5-10 more patches like this, especially when the patches themselves are so minor and address trivialities. Is Hayden really expected to put out 0.9, 1.0, 1.1 ect?? Bethesda should start an Eyefinity division and hire him as project lead... They are lucky they created such an awesome game...lol P.S: My Vapor X 5870 1gb can run Skyrim with AA set to 2 on ultra settings at 6000*1080 quite nicely. I intend to upgrade to the 7970..whenever that comes out.

I intend to upgrade to the 7970..whenever that comes out. Put it this way, it would have taken them substantially less time to implement a fix by modifying the code rather than spending 20+ hours reverse engineering it to a slightly sub-par effect. [at last count, we're modifying 16 values, rewriting 2 new functions, patching many call events to those functions in quite a few different parts of the EXE, most games you get away with changing ONE OR TWO values, this is why updates take so long -- each one of those changes must happen at a different address every update.] Perhaps the steamworks workshop will allow this to be addressed in a more exotic fashion in the future, but as with any studio who chooses not to support such features, shame on them. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

I am as anyone that we got a ported over version of the Xbox build complete with a ui made for a controller, but they are also adding what they need to like 4 gig support in the next patch (or shortly) I agree that Bethesda probably isn't going to focus on multi-monitor support for a while if ever. Before I bought the game though I thought I read an interview from Bethesda though saying they would be supporting multi-monitor in Skyrim since it was working in Oblivion. Not sure if my memory is accurate on that though. If not then I can't really fault them fi that is their business model and I can see why they wouldn't want to support multi-monitor configurations for the 100 users or so that are using it. Actually my beef hasn't really been with Bethesda on this issue as much as Steam because of auto-updating to patches when they have a "Do not update" option that obviously has not been working. Since people here (Helifax and HaYDeN mostly) have already proven it can be done with reverse effort, I personally feel that it would be in Bethesda's best interest to put it into the game just to say they have it for sales pitching and advertising the game from a company standpoint. It's hard for me to believe that none of the people at Bethesda (especially the developers) don't have a desire to have this game working on multi-monitors for themselves or have it working internally already. Maybe Bethesda should take some of their profits from the game and just start paying HaYDen. :) Bethesda has always put out fun games but always VERY buggy. I don't know how many employees they have at Bethesda now-a-days but I remember talking to a developer back when Daggerfall came out about issues I was fixing by modifying the files and he told me back then that the company didn't have great support for it's developers and didn't have good game testing procedures in place. It's almost like they release a game counting on the public to finish it. This is probably why they released the developer kit to the public with Oblivion.

This usually happens when you are running a different version of the game to the version of Hayden's patch. For me: Skyrim 1.1 was Hayden patch version 0.4a Skyrim 1.2 was Hayden patch version 0.7 Skyrim 1.3 is Hayden patch version 0.9 Try re-validating the game through Steam as well if this keeps happening for you. _________________ i5-2500K @ 4Ghz ° Asus P8Z68 ° GTX670 Windforce OC ° 8GB DDR3 RipjawsX ° 4x Viewsonic VA2703 ° Logitech G15 / G5 / G27 ° Razer Vespula ° TrackIR 5 ° Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS

My system crashes to desktop if I don't use it but not immediately. Hayden may be able to shed more light on non steam installs if he has encountered it.

Great community here and since this game came out, this thread is for me rechecked from morning till night time! This update to 1.3 gave me nothing but CTD, CTD and CTD! Tried so many things: roll back to 1.1 -> CTD, then I tried the folder replacement from a week ago -> CTD, deleted the drivers and installed ATI 11.11c + CCAPS -> CTD... I was so happy when I saw the UW0.9 from Hayden, so I switched the files back again to version 1.3, started UW0.9 and TESV.exe -> CTD. Oh dear! The game always crashes, when on the start screen the smoke would appear. Any ideas? System is: i7950, 12Gig, 2x5970(+GTX470Physx), 3x Samsung1920x1080, common res. 5992x1080 (Bezel comp), I have played until this latest patch with a rollback to 1.1 + UW04a +4GBPatch + rename the patched TESV to 'Crysis.exe'. That worked like charm!

You and Heli really need to reach out to Bethesda and see if they'll give you jobs, apparently they need good coders :) On a related note, has anyone had any problems with the latest patch? I'm noticing some people are now missing their skin textures for their arms, face, etc. While it's nice to see the Phantom Limb make his appearance in Skyrim, it's a bit distracting to see only two eyeballs floating where a head should be.

Joined: 21 May 2011, 17:24 Posts: 31	Hayden, thank you for doing such a quick release for the 1.3 patch. Everything seems to be working perfectly with 0.9, except for one thing. When I open up a note (not a book, but things like letters and recipes), I notice the bottom bar (with the turn pages M1 and M2 instructions) goes to the far left monitor. With books this does not happen. Afterwards, when I close the letter and go back to inventory, I notice the mouse pointer becomes compressed and doesn't match my mouse movements. I then fix this by quitting out of inventory and when I open the inventory again, the pointer is normal-sized again. You mentioned before how viewing scrolls was messed up and the game thinks that viewing scrolls is viewing the map. I wonder if this is the same problem?

When I open up a note (not a book, but things like letters and recipes), I notice the bottom bar (with the turn pages M1 and M2 instructions) goes to the far left monitor. With books this does not happen. Afterwards, when I close the letter and go back to inventory, I notice the mouse pointer becomes compressed and doesn't match my mouse movements. I then fix this by quitting out of inventory and when I open the inventory again, the pointer is normal-sized again. You mentioned before how viewing scrolls was messed up and the game thinks that viewing scrolls is viewing the map. I wonder if this is the same problem? I've had this problem with the last 3 fixes (and possibly before, but I didn't notice if so). It's not the end of the world by any means, but I'm chiming in here just in case Hayden needs this kind of feedback. Here's another bit of feedback - great patch Hayden!

I couldn't find it ..throw us another Meatball! :) I bring bad news. 0.9 on 1.1 has one wee problem, but it breaks it for me. (sigh) When I am in 'Enchanting' mode my key binds have the R key bound to KP- (key pad minus). "Ready/Sheath" weapon is bound to KP-. (most of my keys are bound on the KP), ...buuut that should not matter. When I hit that, craft/create key the whole menu system gets jammed to the LEFT monitor. Never to return. That "R" key would do the same thing on v0.3 BUT I could get the MENU centered again by hitting M fer MAP and come back again, It would fix it right up. If I ever "Sheathed" my weapons it would do it as well on 0.3. Does NOT do it on 0.9. So I would toggle the MAP and be good to go.. The only relavent MOD I am using is the control.map for the keys. ..commonskyrimDataInterfaceControlsPCcontrolmap.txt I forgot what its called. Its on Nexus. system set to US, Skyrin set to High, AA and FXAA off, no LAA and 2x5870 CF(on) CCC11.11c no CAP added. I miss anything? System NEVER crashes. (oh, trees and land self-shadow ON) (side note: as soon as you turn on any AA another -tripple-screen- buffer is added, minimum. Start runnin out of VIDMEM fast on 1gig cards. Then ya start texture thrashin and FPS tanks) Some seem to forget this. We are try'n to run around 7mega pixels @ 60 FPS! ..am I the only 1.1 tester/user? Hey GUYS (GALS?) put Steam in OFFLINE MODE. All the games work except the yap-yap lines. (chat?) Far Left MENU near the bottom ..GO OFF LINE MODE. Save yerself some grief. I am staying away from the main quest lines just incase they get pooched. Just bootin around, makin stuff, wack'n dragons, finding WORDs ..level 43. Maybe 40+ dragons.. 8-) Wow, that was long winded, been up ALL night playin.

I was having a large amount of CTD's until I updated to this December 1st version. Not sure if any of you are using an old version but updating to the latest one sure helped me. I am also running about 15 mods. I can't run for more than about 30 seconds on the steam executable without a ctd, except for save games that are in very remote areas around the map.

Just the 4GB, which is the latest version (Dec 1st). I was referring to this one: which shall only have the top entry ticked: This seems to be caused by trying to many versions of the related files. So if you find CTD's on the game start, you could check this.

Great stuff, im running now this + v1.3 and HaYDeN's fix 0.9. :twothumb Yeah I am running the same configuration and I have to say this is the most stable and complete patch yet for me. I haven't had a single issue so far. HaYDeN is the man! I I built this system just for this game alone and wouldn't even be playing it if it wasn't for all the awesome people on this forum who've figured all this stuff out. I haven't been on a thread ever that had so much good input on one topic. EDIT: Actually I have been having one minor issue since 1.3 came out but I am not sure what is causing it and am going to do some more testing tonight to see if it's related to the .9 patch or the LAA executable by itself. When I use console commands such as showinventory, additem, or equipitem on any NPC or companion the console command for them won't work when I run the LAA executable and .9 patch. It runs the console command without errors but nothing happens. It seem to work if I do an player.additem or player.equipitem on myself but won't work on any NPC's or other charachters after I select them. However, I know it's not a syntax thing because it works if I can somehow manage to load the game without the LAA executable (CTD's) and .9 patch from the steam executable. I was thinking this was occuring from mods but the mods are still installed when I get it to work without the LAA executable. Anyway it's not a big deal. I wouldnt' worry so much about that but I've had to use the console to get past some quest bugs.

It seems to me that there was something weird going on with your install of Skyrim. Because as far as I know, if you have no mods installed the only file you should see in the "Data Files" is the "Skyrim.esm". Good to see you've got it sorted.

I did note that I kept getting different ID tags even when clicking on the same spot sometimes. I'll have to check into that further to see if that's what is going on. Yeah, I'm definitely not using the player. commands when trying to mess with my NPC's. ;) EDIT: Well I think you hit the nail on the head. I just tested it and when I click on Saadia in Whiteholm it comes up with a few different ID's and none of them are hers. So.... I don't know why i can't ever get hers up but at least I know what's going on now. I can click on the same spot on her and it brings up like 3 or 5 different ID's. Maybe if I go back and click on the ugly innkeeper a few times Saadia's will come up. Haha! Thanks much for the input, I just got her's up just by clicking randomly around the screen. You just saved me a lot of frustration!. :) I'm glad I don't have to do this a lot because it would get tiresome having to lookup up everyones codes all day long. Although it was kinda funny when I realized I changed the innkeeper into an assassin.

Joined: 29 Nov 2011, 13:17 Posts: 13	Hi Joe, guess my install is fine. Weird for me is that with every FORCED patch Bethesda broke, what was working before. So to keep on playing that game I always rolled back to previous versions by replacing the updated files with 1.1 vanilla versions. But I did not delete the newer files in that folder, I renamed them. For rollback from1.2 that worked nicely, but now at 1.3 it looks like the renamed files will be loaded by the game engine, too. So I learned now, that replaced files must be dropped into an external folder. So its sorted and game loads fine again.

I'm curious though, what Catalyst drivers are you using? We upadate his Catalyst drivers to 11.11 as well, so I'm nto really sure which of the two fixed his problem but he doesn't seem to be crashing anymore. He has the Sapphire 6950 as well. I am running similar configurations as both of you but am running XFX 6950. One more thing. How much system memory do you have?

Joined: 14 Nov 2011, 18:19 Posts: 5	Anyone else been having issues with 1.3/Hayden 0.9? I'm getting CTD's constantly now, mainly any time I go to Fast Travel off the map. Occasionally I'll see a red screen for the map, but all the map icons are fine. Almost every crash is either right when I say "Yes" to Fast Travel, or I load into the new location, take three steps and then CTD. This is new in 1.3/0.9 and I never had any problems up prior. I know I can roll back, but just want to see if anyone else is seeing the same issues. I've also noticed a lot of texture issues with missing textures and such, but that could be a driver issue on my side. Running 2 x Radeon 6950's with Catalyst 11.11c.

Seems their website is having issues as I've been trying to DL a few other mods and half the time I get a 404. Just try refreshing a few times. I get the same thing from Nexus. However, if I just wait a little bit it eventually comes up and starts to download. Sometimes I have to let it sit for a couple minutes. if you can't get it let me know in a pm and I can send you the zipped file directly or find a server to put it on. EDIT: I get the same thing as the OP. The 404 error I haven't had problems accessing their site. As for the CTD's I have helped a few people where we eventually got it running without CTD's by messing with a combination of their video driver version and LAA executable version. Most people it seems to fix the problem by updating to the latest video driver and using the latest LAA fix. However I ran into an issue with a friend of mine on Fri night where we updated to the latest catalyst driver but had to revert to the Nov 21st LAA fix to get it working. I know it was related to the 11.7 catalyst drivers because we reverted back and it started crashing again with the same LAA file. However it was still crashing with the newest LAA file. So it was definitely a combination issue. If playing with these doesn't work right away I'd also disable any mods your running while trying to resolve the issue. Edit: One more thing about CTD's and Crossfire. I have a Crossfire system with two 6950's and even though I know they "fixed" it I was just having too many wierd issues and CTD's and my framerate was fine with one card so I disabled the 2nd card completely by pulling it out of the machine and I haven't had any CTD's since. I know it sucks to not be able to take advantage of both the cards but it might save people a lot of headache by at least trying the game with one card to see if that solves the CTD problem. If you have an earlier card than the 6900 series cards I don't know the framerate may suck bad enough to not be playable. I usually get 60fps with the one card with the low being in the mid 30's in places like Whiterun.

I just tested it and when I click on Saadia in Whiteholm it comes up with a few different ID's and none of them are hers. So.... I don't know why i can't ever get hers up but at least I know what's going on now. I can click on the same spot on her and it brings up like 3 or 5 different ID's. Maybe if I go back and click on the ugly innkeeper a few times Saadia's will come up. Haha! Thanks much for the input, I just got her's up just by clicking randomly around the screen. You just saved me a lot of frustration!. :) I'm glad I don't have to do this a lot because it would get tiresome having to lookup up everyones codes all day long. Although it was kinda funny when I realized I changed the innkeeper into an assassin. ..Just center the character/item you WANT in the middle the left screen, but click in the middle of the middle screen. Some how the console interface is active in the middle but the 'world' it sees is on the left. Uhg.. :/ Any way, great fun. _________________ - AMD 965 @3.8 - Gigabyte 790fx ud5 - AMD 7970 Ghz - OCZ Reaper 4GB - OCZ Vetex - Eyefinity 3x Asus vw266h - Samsung t260hd + 226ux - (soundcard) - Sony 5.1 ~700w - PC P&C 750w - Corsair K60 -

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 00:36 Posts: 47	I have been in Vegas (on business) for a week and just got back and wanted to play some SKYRIM. I of couse got the forced update and then Hayden's ,4 patch did not work for me, got CTDitis. I came here, got the .9 patch, I still had CTD so I revirified at Steam and then could get in. I now have distorted graphics, like I am streatched out to fill my monitors. I deleted the pref ini file and then got the new one when I loaded. I reset my resolution but I still get the stretched graphics. Alsomy WASD movements are strange but that could be an inusion due to the distorted graphics. I am using auto detect resolution in the . patch as recommended. If I uncheck it I see that it shows GUI Width of 1920. I tried unchecking auto detect and changing the resolution to 5760 but then when I start the game I get the title screen but no menu. I am running at 5760 X 1200 (three 1920 X 1200 monitors) . When I lasy player I was using the .4 patch and the earlier SKYRIM version and all was great. I am not running the 4Gb memory mod as it corrupted my gane when I tried it some weeks ago. Any Ides? (On the donation issuent in $50 and I will commit to adding $5 for every new patch that is necessary and that I get from this site) _________________ CPU i-7920 DO @3.6 Ghz, PSU Corsair AX1200, GPU's 2 EVGA GTX 580's in SLI Surround, Monitors 3 Ea Samsung 245T's 24" @ 5760 X 1200, Storage, Boot Drive 120 Gb OCZ Vertex 2 SSD, Program drives, 2 Ea 300 Gb V-Raptors in RAID 0, Storage drive, WD RE3 1 TB, M

You can try increasing or decreasing the FOV to change the feel of how the graphics are presented in front of you. If it seems stretched, you can try increasing the FOV. You do this when you first start Haydens patch, before you click Inject Patch and then start the game. However, I have found Hayden's default value to work well for me, but it's something to try. _________________ i5-2500K @ 4Ghz ° Asus P8Z68 ° GTX670 Windforce OC ° 8GB DDR3 RipjawsX ° 4x Viewsonic VA2703 ° Logitech G15 / G5 / G27 ° Razer Vespula ° TrackIR 5 ° Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS

When I draw a bow and shoot the arm, the bow and arrows all look normal and not distorted. In inventory screens all looks normal but the world looks like I have one of my non center monitors background spread across all three screens. My normal monitor set up is going from Left to Right 3,2,1 with monitor 1 on the right. Monitor 3, on the left is my main Windows monitor, I have run this way for a long time and had no issues and SKYRIM ran great using the previous fixes.

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 00:36 Posts: 47	Here is an update, my problem is not the fix. Even when running the game without the fix in widescreen I get the distortion except for my own body and weapons. If I change the ini to 1920 X 1200 then the game plays normally but only on my center monitor as you would expect. When I change the ini to 5760 X 1200 I get game across all three monitors but distroted beyone playability. The fix does fix the menues as it is designed to do but it is not my problem. I am going to try one more thing and that is the latest NVidia beta driver 290.36, I have been running the previous beta, 285.79 that came out on 11/11. _________________ CPU i-7920 DO @3.6 Ghz, PSU Corsair AX1200, GPU's 2 EVGA GTX 580's in SLI Surround, Monitors 3 Ea Samsung 245T's 24" @ 5760 X 1200, Storage, Boot Drive 120 Gb OCZ Vertex 2 SSD, Program drives, 2 Ea 300 Gb V-Raptors in RAID 0, Storage drive, WD RE3 1 TB, M

JaggedJackal	Post subject: Hello,I am currently having Posted: 13 Dec 2011, 11:54
Joined: 13 Dec 2011, 10:59 Posts: 2	Hello, I am currently having an issue trying to get my game of Skyrim into multi-monitor wide screen. The main problem I am finding is even when I change the .ini file to 5760x1080 the game stays in the center screen with no alteration. The monitor connected to the second card does not even receive a connection at all and goes into power save mode. I am fairly new to the whole multi-monitor scene so I could be missing a simple step so pardon my newbness if that is the case. I have also attempted to use haydens menu fix to see if anything happens but all it does is what it was designed for, change the menu. I also saw somewhere that the .ini file could be in different spots so this is the one that I have been editing: C:Program Files (x86)SteamsteamappscommonskyrimSkyrimSkyrimPrefs System Specs: -OP: Windows 7, 64 bit -GPU: 2 sli Geforce 550 ti -GPU Driver: 290.36 (beta) and 285.62 (problem occurred in both versions) -CPU: Intel i7-2600k @ 3.40 GHz Thank you in advance

Both of them work fine when run separately, .9 works, .3 before it was great, and then the 1.4 LAA fix works by itself, but when I try and run both... it crashes. I'm running 3 monitors @ 5760x1080 off of a Sapphire 6950 2GB, with 8GB RAM, and a Core 2 Quad. On 1 monitor (1920x1080) at Ultra, while not running either patch, I get about 45-60 minutes of gameplay before CTD. Generally event triggered (ie. loading screen/fast travel, or attempting to take a screenshot). When running in eyefinity, it drops down to 10-15 minutes before CTD. When running in only 1 monitor, I've monitored RAM and CPU load, and it seems to crash after attempting to use more than 2GB of RAM (split roughly evenly between system and video RAM), hence my desire to use both patches... Given that other people seem to be running HaYDeN's fix with the 4GB LAA Patch, I assume that I'm doing something wrong... any suggestions? Edit: Also, I thought it would go without saying, but decided to add it just in case. HaYDeN's fix isn't outputting any errors. Standard 'Waiting... Found.. opened... injected... allocating... etc' messages. No output from the LAA patch. Even when run from command line. I am running a very similar setup to you (same exact video card), but I am running an older 4GB LAA patch with no issues. I have uploaded it for you to try: (link removed) Same deal as the others. Unzip the LAA patch into a directory somewhere. Start Hayden's 0.9 patch, click Inject patch. Start skyrim4gb.exe in the LAA patch folder and all should work. I found that on the very odd occasion, the game would not take the patch on load and your menu options would be on the right hand screen. I would close Skyrim, click Inject Patch again, and restart Skyrim via the 4GB LAA patch again and all is well. This is very rare but has happened maybe 3 times. let me know if going back to Aussie's version helped you. I have a friend who has a similar configuration who was having a similar problem and we rolled back to the Nov 21st version of the LAA Patch and it seems to have fixed it. I'm curious though, what Catalyst drivers are you using? We upadate his Catalyst drivers to 11.11 as well, so I'm nto really sure which of the two fixed his problem but he doesn't seem to be crashing anymore. He has the Sapphire 6950 as well. I am running similar configurations as both of you but am running XFX 6950. One more thing. How much system memory do you have? Haven't had a chance to try out the fix yet, but I am officially done with finals for the year! Exodus, I have 8GB of System RAM and 2GB of Video RAM. Now time to go and test out this patch and see how immersed I can get! PS. Many thanks AussieTimmeh!

There are a few workarounds in the few pages before this but make sure that you are gettting the target ID that you actually want to be using the console command on. Other than that I dont' think any console commands are broken that I know of with .9.

Turn off automatic updates for the game on steam (it should stay this time, since steam apparently fixed the issue) 2. Exit steam completely. 3. Go to your steam installation/steamapps/common/ folder. 4. Right click on the skyrim folder and go to Properties. 5. Restore a previous version of the folder, before you updated it. 6. Restart steam and play using the last known good patches for you. The only time this won't work is if you have steam installed on the non-OS hard drive and you haven't told it to have the same previous-version properties of the OS hard drive, it may not have any previous version info of the folder otherwise. I used this feature to play for a while until 0.9 fixed the game for me. _________________ i5-2500K @ 4Ghz ° Asus P8Z68 ° GTX670 Windforce OC ° 8GB DDR3 RipjawsX ° 4x Viewsonic VA2703 ° Logitech G15 / G5 / G27 ° Razer Vespula ° TrackIR 5 ° Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS

Joined: 17 Dec 2011, 06:23 Posts: 3	Skyrim is disregarding the bezel compensation I set up in Catalyst Control Center. (It's also happening for Portal 2. However, Trackmania seems to work just fine, so it may be application dependent. Both Skyrim and Portal 2 are running under Steam.) Bezel compensation does work when I'm at the desktop. The mouse pointer disappears under each Bezel. But when the game launches, no luck. Running Skyrim Ultrawide fix for the menu's doesn't help either (but I wouldn't think it would have anything to do with it anyway). I just installed the latest Catalyst Drivers, and still no luck. System: Windows 7, 64 bit Card: MSI 6950 TwinFrozr I wasn't able to find anything about this issue yet. Sorry if this has already been answered. Otherwise, has anyone else experienced this?

So I had to set it back to 5040x1050, which at least runs the game. Strangely, I cannot see any resolution options in the drop down list even though I have the .ini file set to: iSize H=1050, iSize W=5040. I wonder if that is part of the problem? I've also set it to iSize H=1200, iSize W=5760 (which is the maximum resolution of all 3 of my monitors) and though the game still runs at this higher resolution, the bezel compensation is still ignored.

It will need to be 5XXXx1200, whatever it says your desktop is at. _________________ i5-2500K @ 4Ghz ° Asus P8Z68 ° GTX670 Windforce OC ° 8GB DDR3 RipjawsX ° 4x Viewsonic VA2703 ° Logitech G15 / G5 / G27 ° Razer Vespula ° TrackIR 5 ° Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS

I probably never would have figured that out since I was assuming the desktop resolution was 5760x1200. Checking the settings as you suggested showed the resolution at 6016x1200 (likely adjusting for the extra space of the bezels). Now it's just a matter of figuring out how to scale the resolution down a bit for better performance. Likely just a ratio thing.

I heard turning off AA (anti aliasing) helps performance a great deal without touching any other settings, but play with them and see what works for your system. Glad to be of help. _________________ i5-2500K @ 4Ghz ° Asus P8Z68 ° GTX670 Windforce OC ° 8GB DDR3 RipjawsX ° 4x Viewsonic VA2703 ° Logitech G15 / G5 / G27 ° Razer Vespula ° TrackIR 5 ° Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS

Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 07:13 Posts: 108	I have a theory on the CTD. I have had very rare CTD, only 3 in 80 hours of play. But my video card(s) are 6850s with only 1GB vram. Is it possible that the exectutable image is larger for cards using more vram? And if so, is it possible to limit the vram used by the cards? It seems the WSGF is getting more crashes than the population at large; I also suspect they have better graphics cards than most. Anyone with 1GB cards getting frequent ctd?

Everything was fine until I updated via Steam. Should have just kept off of Steam and running it through TESV.exe - I am going to completely un-install ATI/AMD driver(s) and re-install to 11.11 When it does run my FPS is so choppy it's not even worth playing. Settings are set to default (4.3 - high) with FXAA off - Inject patch, LAA (without it I get CTDs all over the place) and it runs, it's just unplayable due to FPS. No mods, etc. _________________

Using Hayden's 0.9 fix plus the 4gb LAA fix and not a single crash since I started using the two together. Just wanted to toss this out there, as I found this http://skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=3863 earlier, and they claim the UI elements they've fiddled with ARE compatible with super widescreen resolutions. Can't test it at the moment since I'm at work, just thought I'd throw it out there for people who are having problems with the workaround. Cheers

Joined: 10 Dec 2011, 23:42 Posts: 2	So I have my eyefinity group set up, and I have adjusted the bezel and I have been able to successfully run skyrim at proper bezel compensation at 5884x1080 on a triple monitor setup... I currently have crossfire hd 6950s and am enjoying the game with haydens 9.0 patch which works wonderfully for me... I just have one issue I need to fix... Everything on my center monitor is scaled correctly it seems and everything looks like it is supposed to, no stretching or awkward aspect ratio... However, on my two side monitors, things look stretched out a bit and I don't know if it is an aspect ratio problem or what it is... I just know that on the side monitors things look stretched out, and the depth of field seems to get skewed. For instance, a bridge that look like it is atleast a foot ball field away on my center monitor, when I turn to have it in my side view on one of my side monitors, it stretches that area and the bridge looks not only really big and stretched, but it looks like it is like 5 feet away. So my side monitors seem to be stretching the images and messing with my depth of field. Is this normal with eyefinity? Is this an aspect ratio problem? Did I possibly set up the eyefinity group incorrectly on my desktop? I am running 3 1920x1080 monitors, all are exactly the same brand and model. I have the skyrim ini set to h/w as the same as my bezel corrected desktop size, and I am running it fullscreen using the 4gb address awareness patch on 1.12... If anyone could help me I appreciate it I have seen YouTube videos of eyefinity, and none of their side monitors look stretched at all, it all looks like a beautiful landscape of properly scaled gaming. However I can't seem to get that same effect. In my skyrim ini I have ulastaspectratio:0, at the moment and I have haydens patch fov world:86 fov hands:91 ANYONE who could help me resolve this would make my night and week. Thank you guys so much..

The cause of the problem is your 560 cards don't have the VRAM to handle AA in surround. 1GB just isn't enough for AA. Not a problem, just set your driver to 16x AI and FXAA- you will not mind having AA disabled, game looks real nice with all those pixels and all the other goodies turned up. AA is not a problem itself, the 3GB versions of the 580 do well with it. Run Precision or the utility of choice, and you can see the impact on VRAM use with AA.

Joined: 01 Dec 2011, 19:57 Posts: 74 Location: Toronto	]-[iya guys.. First a note on the "warping".. its normal. Yer not suposed to "look" at the side screens. Periferal vision sorts it out just fine. Something about our "eyes' being little domes and not flat lens's. Second, '1080 (or 16:9)screens with bezel comp' ON adds even more 'warping'. A good chunk skinier and wider. Pushin 6ooo x 1o8o. Close to 6 to 1. I am running, and a few others here, are running the '12oo screens (1920x12oo). These are taller and taking some of the 'skiny' out of it. I also have the monitors 'under-lapped, so there is only ONE border between. I am not using bezel comp'. I figure its like upping the rez'. I also went to pains to arrange the outputs so I didn't have to shuffle the screen order in display proporties. ..because if -I- had to do it ,,sure as snot the -vid-card- has to do it too every single frame. (poor buggers) Single monitors have warp too, just -alot- less. Watch a corner while you swing the veiw back and forth slowly Next, I have 2x 5870's. More importanty 1gig'rs with 3 screens. AA wants to eat another 3screens worth, AT LEAST. One 5870 on Ultra with some AA on a single monitor would run fine, nice in fact. That eats alot of vid'mem. =texture thrashing. And ya just know thats got to slow things. So I run Crossfire, no AA, no Bezel comp', default monitor layout, ATI 12.1, no LAA, no FXAA, Steam in ofline mode ..etc. Lots of "little" things add up. Leaves me room for "self shadow" on the trees and rox and a new night sky with a nebula from NASA. Its the little things that count. An old hero of mine wrote "If yer lookin for 100hp or losing 100 lbs ..don't. Look for 100 ways to get 1. Prefferably both." ...and my system's just rockin! (see the rest of my sustem stats on the side) <--- over there and up a bit. Nudge; some of you guts need to fill yours in. :) Somebody posted a link for the UI tweek, I think I am going to have go at that as long as it doesn't require 1.2+, that is. class; dismissed.. heh.

The cost differance was huge and I only need the extra NOW, and I've had these along time. uh, since new. :) I've never been a big fan of AA. Back when the choice as 640x480/AA and 1280x1024.. 1280 wins. The ailised lines got real small.. who cares! (Quake2) Now we have 640 vs 640/AA.. its not realy a choice. Wait. there is those 256o x 16oo.. ut oh. :) Well, 4 times the current 1920's they are not. 640 vs 1280 it was. My thoughts; 1.5g would work like 1g with AA ..and 2g would be close to "crank'er 'til she chokes, then back it out a 'tad". 8) (gurgle) _________________ - AMD 965 @3.8 - Gigabyte 790fx ud5 - AMD 7970 Ghz - OCZ Reaper 4GB - OCZ Vetex - Eyefinity 3x Asus vw266h - Samsung t260hd + 226ux - (soundcard) - Sony 5.1 ~700w - PC P&C 750w - Corsair K60 -

During 1.1 I had no issues with sli and skyrim using a 4gb enabled Tesv.exe, frame rates was damn good with my settings hovering over 50+ in the open world with the usual slowdowns in the town but now I'm lucky if I can manage 20 with max load my middle card while the other 2 are lucky if they break 40% usage. I've tried adding the exe for the 4gb to the profile but it doesn't seem to do a thing. Any insight on how I can solve this till Bethesda gets off their ass and release their own Laa executable would be much appreciated.

Not quite what I said. On 1g's you kinda need to go easy. Simplest is no AA, then you tweek up the detail until it slows. Then back it down. 1.5 and up the detail a little more and add some AA. 2g go for broke. Triplets @ 19'x12' eats about 1/3 of 1g just to turn the screens on. (dbl check my math guys?) 3 HD screens about 1/4, maybe a little less. So with an extra 1/2 gig you have rom for some AA and maybe some more detail. Wait, look at it another way. Take 1 screen on 1 gig, max out everything. Hows that run? Compare to 3 on 2gig? Not quite the same, unless you had some room left over from the 1 on 1. Then you might squeek it into 2gig with 3. To realy match 1 on 1 you'd need 3 on 3. ..eeckS! Hopefuly you have enough Ghz on the CPU to push it. Notice I said Ghz. Skyrin doesn't do threads real great. Bethesda said its optimized for dual. So it would max out about 50/70% on a quad.. Any guys got some other numbers out there? BTW, that "inventory mod" installed manualy worked fine for me. Font is maybe a tad small but ya get a long list. Tab's are sideways. I was gettin use to the verticals. (shrug) @yukie.. did you turn up the details or add something to the point yer getting texture thrasing? Or other apps' runnin and into v'mem, or (fingers crossed) both? Just guessin here. or.. the slots all 16x speed or 8x? A -little- texture thrashin would hurt alot more on 8x slots. Sort out what you changed and go back. or turn something down and see if it bouces back. _________________ - AMD 965 @3.8 - Gigabyte 790fx ud5 - AMD 7970 Ghz - OCZ Reaper 4GB - OCZ Vetex - Eyefinity 3x Asus vw266h - Samsung t260hd + 226ux - (soundcard) - Sony 5.1 ~700w - PC P&C 750w - Corsair K60 -

Looking back at door, at cute follower ..80+ 12/15ft outside looking across "outside town" ..40-45 pub on left monitor, 2 screens looking across country side 80+ CPU 60-75% maybe. GPU 2 ..90-95% maybe a little higher GPU 1 about 8-10% less, about. This balance is pretty close to perfect. Looking across Dawnstar is close to a "worst case" sceen as the town is outside, unlike Whiterun an "inside" town. Numbers are about right. Take out Taskman', Fraps and AMD System Monitor and I would pick up 5% or so..

Game launches but crashes ? HaYDeN's fix crashes too or not ? Whats your setup (including video drivers) ? Please provide all information you can ok.

Joined: 18 Nov 2011, 14:49 Posts: 7	Ok. I'll do my very best ;) The Game launches correctly, without using the fix (but, as we all know, it's not useable in Eyefinity without it...). Unfortunately, HaYDeN's fix itself does not run. If I execute "his" exe, I get an error message, which I'd love to post here, but doubt that it would help you a lot, as I am from Germany. But I will try to translate it as good as possible. 1st (when executing "normally") Just saying "Wrong Parameter" 2nd (when right-clicking on it and choosing to run as admin) This says: "The specified device, path or file can not be accessed. You may not have sufficient privileges to access the item. " Setup is: HD6970 with Catalyst 12.1 preview.

My Cloud AntiVir judged the .exe as a threat and inhibited the execution of the file. Who would have thought that after such a cryptic error message? THX FOR THE HELP ANYWAY!

I have tried the anti-virus avenue already, even went as far as uninstalling it altogether (I'm using AVG Free), and yes it is ONLY crashing after I inject the patch. here's what it states after I inject it, then run the game: + Searching for RUNNING Skyrim Process... + Skyrim process found... + Process opened successfully! # Image: c:program files (x86)steamsteamappscommonskyrimTESV.exe.4gb # Version: 1.1.21.0 + Version Support Detected! + Executing ASM injection... + Allocating additional memory to process... + Generating Function 1 (Wrote 64 Bytes)... + Generating Function 2 (Wrote 10 Bytes)... + Patching Mouse Positioning (Wrote 6 Bytes)... + Patching Mouse Handler (Wrote 5 Bytes)... + Patching Mouse Sensitivity (Wrote 17 Bytes)... + Patching Overscaling (Wrote 4 Bytes)... + Patching completed, Leave running until you exit Skyrim. + Skyrim thread exited... we're done! It all looks good, but like I said, screen goes black as if it's loading then immediately crashes to desktop as if there was no problem, and when I run the game with the same method without using HAYDENS Fix, it works fine (I've been using Helifaxs fix along with non-updated skyrim). Thoughts? EDIT: all above mentioned things are still true, but I tried to install "the x86 Visual C++ 2010 Runtimes", and upon installation I got this error. see photo Attached files

Joined: 01 Dec 2011, 19:57 Posts: 74 Location: Toronto	RAGE_Saint That is realy odd, as MS would "know what's newest". Language would not matter but x64/x32 and XP or Win7 would. ..or corupt system files. Something else could have modified your runtime libraries. Note; x64 systems have both x64 and x86(32b) runtimes. So verfiy the basics, OS, language and x86/x64. If you did get the right version then run ScanDisk on yer OS drive. One other possibility if yer recovering from a virus/trojan smash up then something small is still twisted in the OS. As an example I did not have user:"Everyone" (with full access) in my "temp" folder. So nothing would instal. (don't bother looking for Everyone as that user is not actualy viewable) User/User/Admin mix up maybe.

Maybe you could try to uninstall C++ 2010 x86 from your PC and then install back using the provided microsoft link ?

c69	Post subject: This is one of the best, most Posted: 21 Dec 2011, 04:30
Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 07:13 Posts: 108	This is one of the best, most constructive threads I have ever seen on the internet. I am waiting for Skyrim mods to be released and maybe I will play some more. My opinion is that the game is seriously imbalanced. Beyond level 25 or so there is only a vague sense of progression and accomplishment. What I would like them to do is "throttle" progression. The cost in gold of mid-level items really needs to be raised. For high level items they should use special ingredients for craftables, like Daedra hearts were for the Daedra armor. There should be a limited set of these unique craftables ingame. Its just stupid that Dragon armor is so easy to obtain, and power leveling smithing, with no other gold sinks makes obtaining high level items trivial. I really wish questing in dungeons, that world drops were an important part of progression. The combat system is workable, but they need to come up with a solution to potting. You can win any fight with enough health and stamina pots. Time should not stop completely when drinking, or the act of drinking a potion should take time, so you cant chain pot without consequences. Difficulty scaling works well in some ways but also contributes to the vague sense of progression. I don't think this is even close to goty, but it is a very good game. It lacks depth. Thankfully, eyefinity with hayden's fix really augments the game's strength which is exploration through scenic vistas. Eyefinity really enhances immersion and is the only reason to play this game.

You can use the num "-" key prior to accessing the map. all the markers will be properly displayed then. Hit "-" again to center the hud after leaving the map. FOr some the markers work properly for others don't... Hope this helps:) _________________ WideScreen Fixer... Fixes your Surround problems to give a gorgeous 3D Surround Experience!

Thats what the .4a / .4b was about sorta. There was something in the tweeks that wrecked havoc with Hayden's fix. Like the differance between High and Ultra settings. There is one mod I'd love to use but it messes with the FOV/zoom for the Map. Lets you zoom the map to almost street level, turn the map clouds on/off. But like I said. differantly, it would mess with Hayden's fix for Eyefinity/Surround. damn. I was worried the SkyUI would too but didn't. ..buuut, they only have mod for inventory screen so far. _________________ - AMD 965 @3.8 - Gigabyte 790fx ud5 - AMD 7970 Ghz - OCZ Reaper 4GB - OCZ Vetex - Eyefinity 3x Asus vw266h - Samsung t260hd + 226ux - (soundcard) - Sony 5.1 ~700w - PC P&C 750w - Corsair K60 -

Joined: 21 Dec 2011, 19:32 Posts: 2	I just thought I'd register to give some feedback on Haydens fix and some of my issues getting it working. Hopefully some of you guys might have had a similar issue and have found a workaround. This has happened to me as long as I've tried Haydens fix (ver .8 or so) up until now. I can run the fix just fine as long as I run no other mods that mess with the executable. So if I try to launch Hayden's fix with any combination of SKSE (skyrim script extender) or the 4GB patch (no longer needed but previously the problem was the same) , the game will crash hard the second the fix is done patching. No error message/dialogs etc. I've heard there are people out there running quite a few mods with Hayden's fix. Hopefully one of you can help me :). Things I've tried: Running all involved processes as admin Trying multiple versions when possible Checking file integrity through Steam Removal of all mods Nothing seems to change the behaviour :(. Thanks for the help in advance!

Joined: 07 Dec 2011, 20:31 Posts: 16	Hi all, Yesterday I played Skyrim v1.3 with LAA 4GB patch and Hayden v0.9 - all was swell! Today I decided to upgrade to Skyrim v1.3.1 and got the Hayden v0.91 to compensate for the Skyrim update. I allowed Skyrim to patch and it seemed to do so qithout issue. I got Hayden v0.91 without issue also. I went to my Skyrim folder and launched 'SkyrimLauncher' and chose default to make sure settings where good then exited the 'SkyrimLauncher'. I then tried to launch 'TESV' and that is where the problem starts! When launching TESV, it automatically runs the launcher - no problem - so from launcher I select play and all that happens is the launcher closes then re opens! I tried running Skyrim without Hayden and with, from launcher and from TESV - no luck! I am NOT writing to ask for help but to let anyone with this issue - looped launcher that will not start game - know how I fixed the problem. It seems TESV v1.3.1 is set to run as administrator seemingly by default on patching - crazy as that may seem! To correct the looping launch problem, I went into Skyrim folder and the properties of TESV then 'compatibility' and removed the tick from the box for 'Run this program as an administrator'. Now, I have not yet tested the game for a reasonable time but I am able to launch it - that is inject Hayden v0.91 if I want widescreen to work right or not inject if not (!) then launch TESV and press play from launcher. I have no idea why this happened but hope the simple solution I present can help others that may have the problem. Thanks Hayden for a fast fix too BTW!

It seems the last update may have turned this on. Ah, a thought; anyone who was running as Admin AND allowed Steam to update may have caused this. Otherwise -eveynody- would have been screwd! First get it running decent then experiment with mods. None are garenteed to work. Anything the mess's with resolution/FOV are going to trip over each other and crash. The # 1 thing Hayden's patch is doing is resolution/FOV fix. Anything else is expendable. I am runng a few PASSIVE mods. New textures like the night sky w/nebula is awsome and "Passive". I run the SkyUI with "manual instal", not with script expander that it would "like to have". _________________ - AMD 965 @3.8 - Gigabyte 790fx ud5 - AMD 7970 Ghz - OCZ Reaper 4GB - OCZ Vetex - Eyefinity 3x Asus vw266h - Samsung t260hd + 226ux - (soundcard) - Sony 5.1 ~700w - PC P&C 750w - Corsair K60 -

Weird, just checked my 1.31 Skyrim installed (auto updated by Steam) and none of the Exe's are set to Admin (by me or automatically). I did notice that the SMAA injector now actually does need the "Steam Overlay fix" enabled in the INI file however. Also Haydens fix works perfectly for me, didnt change a thing (ie maps etc fine). _________________ [GTX1080 - 4.48GHz 4690k - planning projector mayhem]

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 08:20 Posts: 8	Hey Guys. I've been running 1.1 + 4gb Launcher + Hayden fix 0.9 for quite some while now. Because it was the only combination that allowed me to play without crashing or major problems. Probably later today I will try the 1.3.10 version with Hayden 0.91 I also want to use SkyUI from this LINK. It mentions it support all resolutions, was wondering if anyone tried it yet and if it works with, without or is compatible with Hayden Fix. I'm gonna try it out like I said. But would be helpfull if anyone already tried it and would save me some time fiddling around and getting it to work proper. Thx edit: will try out the the TESV Acceleration Layer too it appears it's from the same guy that made the Skyrim Script Extender that you need so it can run SkyUI. _________________ EVE Online - The Universe is yours »»───(knee)───►

Joined: 23 Dec 2011, 14:50 Posts: 1	TESV Acceleration Layer works excellently with Hayden's fix for us, it really makes everything a lot smoother! (and lowering the FOV made everything look better as well, we settled for 55 to avoid exaggerated stretch on the side screens) I was wondering if there's any launch argument for the fix application (Hayden's) that will immediately trigger "inject patch", without having to click the button? It could make for a sweet opportunity to create a one-click shortcut to start the game.

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 08:20 Posts: 8	Ok update. Running Skyrim 1.3.10 + Hayden Fix 0.91 + SkyUI mod installed. And most Amazingly it all works and the game is stable. SkyUI is a script based interface mod that changes quite a bit and was afraid that it would interfere with th Hayden Fix, it doesn't, Yaaay It's a work in progress but a very cool mod, that makes the inventory more pc-user friendly. Because it's not completely finished it I use it together with QD inventory to take over the parts that are not finished yet. About the TESV Acceleration Layer, haven't noticed the massive increase in FPS like some of the users report. There's actually no increase in fps, It's still the same according to my fps counter. The game does run smoother, no more hiccups when running in the open world. Can't say if it's the 1.3.10 skyrim or TESVAL. Or TESVAL is just not working, will look in to that later. _________________ EVE Online - The Universe is yours »»───(knee)───►

Bumpinthenight	Post subject: That acceleration layer Posted: 25 Dec 2011, 16:58
Joined: 23 Oct 2008, 17:57 Posts: 72	That acceleration layer thing: Its a great big upgrade for sure, wander around the cities to see where it provides the most benefit, especially the notorious kill views like the dragonreach plateau looking down at the tree in whiterun. Now there's one thing left that's been seriously bugging me and that's how the shadow engine seems constrained by something to with FOV & display resolution. I've tried all kinds of combinations of the various shadow settings but there seems like there's some constant that A) Forces the over all quality of your shadows within some limited quantity of memory and B) is heavily influenced by the size of the active player view upon the game world. For examples: Setting the outdoor shadow radius to 8000 means all your shadow qualities outdoors suffer and this is even with ridiculous things like 16K shadow resolution settings, as you lower the max range of the shadow engine's radius it will start to make use of those higher settings relative to the radius size, so there's something that seems to over-ride ridiculous settings based on how many shadows total it needs to be drawing, it won't let you just consume more vram and party on. So yah doesn't matter what you set any of those three shadow resolution settings, if it reaches whatever that maximum quality/distance value it will ignore anything higher then whatever it can fit into that space. The second influence is resolution, with identical high-end shadow settings my outdoor shadows look way finer in 1920x1080 vs 5760x1080, this shouldn't happen but yah something is hamstringing the shadow detail based on how much of the world is on screen. To further tinker with this I set the FOV down to very low levels even while triple screen and after the next sun-shadow update the very same shadows I was looking at became more details, resetting the FOV back to where I regularly have it instantly make those same shadows blockier again. So the trick here has been trying to identify what that shadow quality vs shadow radius is limited by and finding a way to let it consume more resources, anyone else been lucky enough to get around this? I want mah ubah shadows! ;) _________________ 6700K, 2x1080s, 32GB DDR4 etc etc.

I even provided in the mod 2 version, one for 5760x1080 and the other for 5760x1080 resolutions if you look in the optional folder. Then it will look like this: If your inventory is centered on the middle screen, just press the - or + keys on your numpads to have it use the whole screens.

Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 07:13 Posts: 108	TESV Acceleration layer is giving me a 25% increase. Looking down from dragonreach to the tree is going from mid 20s up to low-30s, for a particular ultra-ish setting. This with a Phenom2x4 @3.8. Does anyone know if Skyrim uses all available cores? An upgrade to an x6 or x8 would then be worthwhile.

The combo of the acceleration mod (not sure if it will help me w/ a 4.5ghz i7), the UI mod, and Haydens fix looks like a winner. Cant wait to get some game time in and try it all out. _________________ ViciousXUSMC on the Web - YouTube :: FaceBook :: Website

Those keys are here to be used and KaYDeN solution allows you to see the top and the bottom of the UI (the full UI) while vanilla would allow you t o only see the middle of it. So there is noting more to get.

Joined: 27 Dec 2011, 15:39 Posts: 3	Just got skyrim on steam - downloaded 0.91 of HaYDeN's widescreen fix. Running the suggested GeForce 290.53 Drivers. Clean skyrim steam download, nothing else changed, no UI mods installed yet. The starting intro (as I go into the game, being carted along) looks like this, Left / Right screens are blank, middle screen appears as per: ie, my 3 screens look like this all up: I would expect the intro to look like this: My setup is 5760x1080 resolution on 2x nvidia 460's (in sli). The fix definitely changes things from 'normal' (where I would only get the middle screen of the second image), but the image is squished onto the middle screen. Any ideas?

I have tried to use Hayden's mod to fix the menus - but aren't having much luck. When I run Haydens tool as Administrator, I click 'Inject Patch'. I then open Skyrim and it crashes instantly back to my desktop. Click Inject Patch again - start Skyrim - crash. I'm not sure why - but I can't get Skyrim to run with Haydens tool at all! I'm running 1.3.10.0 for Skyrim and Haydens latest 0.91 tool.

Joined: 06 May 2010, 05:52 Posts: 210	After having logged over 200 hours in this game, I finally decided to try the HayDen Eyefinity app available here. I started it up, then started Skyrim. I was able to get a 6048x1080 resolution working. But, the menus are very zoomed in and not that easy to navigate. However, it does seem to be playable....for just a few moments to about 3 minutes. Then the game CTD without any warning. I have had 5 CTDs within 15 minutes. Then, even after reverting to just one screen it still CTD. The game has been very, VERY stable for me since the latest patch and hasn't CTD in well over a week now until trying this eyefinity patch. Any ideas as to what may be wrong? _________________ ~Windows 7 x64 Professional~MSI X58A-GD45~Intel I7-950~6x2 GB DDR3 1600 RAM (Triple Channel)~RealTek Onboard~XFX HD 6950 2 GB GDDR5~3 ViewSonic 24 inch LCDs in Eyefinity~SATA Dual Layer DVD RW~1000 W PSU~And a Whole Lot More!~Done with Vista~XP Pro on the way out, too!~AND....250 GB XBOX 360~

This statement kinda makes me wonder, "HayDen's app then started scanning files and I waited until that finished before starting the game." HaYDen's app doesn't 'finish' before you can start the game, at least not on my system. All I see is "scanning for skyrim process...." Once you start the game, it loads and HaYDeN's app is no longer visible ( its in the background). How are you going about this? Tabbing in and out "can" mess things up from time to time. What video drivers are you running? the latest? Have you correctly edited your res in the correct .ini file? There shouldn't be any issue with running that res. _________________ i7 sandy 4.4ghz with a snorkel 1080gtx 8gb RAM Gigabyte P67-UD7 rev.

Menus zoomed in running HaYDeN's fix ? Mmm are you sure you've clicked on the "Inject Patch" button on the app before launching Skyrim ? Yes, I had HayDen's app up and running, then went and started up Skyrim. HayDen's app then started scanning files and I waited until that finished before starting the game. Now, even though I've reverted to a single screen the game is CTD every few moments/minutes. I haven't gotten more than 4-5 minutes of play without a CTD so far. EDIT: OK, on my last attempt the menus were fine. BUT, within 5 min of starting the game, I had another CTD. EDIT2: I got the CTD resolved after doing a Validate Files via Steam. I'm now back to --hopefully-- a crash free game experience. BUT, I'm also back to a single screen rather than trying Eyefinity at this time. This statement kinda makes me wonder, "HayDen's app then started scanning files and I waited until that finished before starting the game." HaYDen's app doesn't 'finish' before you can start the game, at least not on my system. All I see is "scanning for skyrim process...." Once you start the game, it loads and HaYDeN's app is no longer visible ( its in the background). How are you going about this? Tabbing in and out "can" mess things up from time to time. What video drivers are you running? the latest? Have you correctly edited your res in the correct .ini file? There shouldn't be any issue with running that res. I was finally able to play for quite a while during this last session without a CTD at all. AND, this was with 3x1 Eyefinity on my single HD 6950 2 GB system. The only real downside is the very choppy 35-40 FPS that has developed. On a single screen @1080p I'm averaging 60+ FPS in the game. 35 FPS for a game like this would be OK if it wasn't for the very, very noticeable choppiness. I'd hate to have to turn down some of the eye candy just to get a smoother experience, though. I'm presently using the 12.1 Preview drivers. _________________ ~Windows 7 x64 Professional~MSI X58A-GD45~Intel I7-950~6x2 GB DDR3 1600 RAM (Triple Channel)~RealTek Onboard~XFX HD 6950 2 GB GDDR5~3 ViewSonic 24 inch LCDs in Eyefinity~SATA Dual Layer DVD RW~1000 W PSU~And a Whole Lot More!~Done with Vista~XP Pro on the way out, too!~AND....250 GB XBOX 360~

The only known change to me was doing a file verification via Steam. That ended the CTDs from previous sessions. After some more successful single screen sessions, I, once again, tried the eyefinity setup. It worked this time. As for going with CF, I've been down that road and don't intend to travel it again anytime soon. My experience with it has left a very bad taste in my mouth. The games I wanted to play, and really needed CF with, would zoom in so large they were unplayable. Using a single GPU in eyefinity allowed the games to, at least, be playable. _________________ ~Windows 7 x64 Professional~MSI X58A-GD45~Intel I7-950~6x2 GB DDR3 1600 RAM (Triple Channel)~RealTek Onboard~XFX HD 6950 2 GB GDDR5~3 ViewSonic 24 inch LCDs in Eyefinity~SATA Dual Layer DVD RW~1000 W PSU~And a Whole Lot More!~Done with Vista~XP Pro on the way out, too!~AND....250 GB XBOX 360~

Joined: 04 Nov 2011, 07:13 Posts: 108	Skyrim is woefully CPU bound, so unless you have an i7, crossfire doesnt help that much in the "problem areas" (cities). My experience is that crossfire now works, but it will only be obvious if you really turn up the detail options. But with the options up that high, when you finally get to a city, the system will bog down under the cpu load. So it really doesnt help THAT much. You should check out the acceleration layer to get more frames with skyrim. Its important to very carefully choose you graphics options. Especially AA and AF. As far as other games and crossfire, my experience has been generally positive, or should say would be very positive if you buy games a month after launch when the drivers are released. That first month may be cause for some hair pulling.

I'm guessing but near the end I imagine HaYDeN will have a wee config/ini file for the options so we don't have to do the unique dance to run it. Couple replies within replies here. Heheh. Yeah its a damn shame x1200 monitors have all but gone away. MUCH better for general computing AND gaming if you ask me. Hell, who are we kidding, what would be bad about a 2400x1800 (4:3) monitor???? Truth be told most 16:9 monitors have black bars on the top and bottom anyway so what the heck does "Widescreen" mean anyway. Some frivolous industry standard I would guess to extraneously "cap" or limit the amount of general bandwidth a company "has to" or "is required" to use in order to have an "industry standard over the wire HD channel broadcast". Less band width = less money and that's all they care about. Hell the majority of providers will put out 1366x720 and you have to push the zoom or aspect button on the remote just to size it to your screen. Then the panel providers think, Why should we make 4 different panels, it would be cheaper to make 2 so monitors for computers have followed suit in the TV department and x720 or x1080 are pretty much the norm now-a-days. Its a travesty. I got these back at the end of most of the mfg's stopping making them. Actually I WISH i'd gotten the 28" 1920x1200 monitors that Asus made just prior to these. I think they only made them for one year. But yeah, I agree... x1200 FTW or x1600 if you're a triple 30" snob :P (I'm jealous) ...if only we had the GFX horsepower to run 3x 30" monitors natively... On that other reply, I don't believe creating a shortcut to the direct TESV.exe does anything anymore. They circumvented that in the 1st patch I believe, when a lot of us were short-cutting straight to the .exe to get around steam. Some "piracy" issue was claimed by them. Now it just launches the launcher anyway so you may as just well use the direct Steam menu link. It does the same thing now. Works fine here. _________________ i7 sandy 4.4ghz with a snorkel 1080gtx 8gb RAM Gigabyte P67-UD7 rev.

Hell the majority of providers will put out 1366x720 and you have to push the zoom or aspect button on the remote just to size it to your screen. I had to go check "1366x720". Typo? Its 1366x768. I just put that res' into my Quake2 tweek, as well as the Landscape and Portrait Triplets. Actualy I put in all the modes from 720p to our 19'x12'. Ah, something you might check for me(your nV'),, My ATI won't let me do 720p, just the 800p (1280x800 16:10) You got Quake2 still installed? Drop me yer email and I'll send you the exe if yer game. Anybody else out there with 1280x1024 (L or P) thro' 1920x1200 Triple Portrait modes and Quake 2 and game for a quick test? I am getting close to releasing it on WSG I think, just dunno how yet. But first want to fix the 'demos' wank of keeping the FOV in the recording. (The other Q2's either broke the lights or the demos for out NightHunters MOD) ..getting back to that wanky 1366x768 res'. What the 'ells with that one? Godda stretch 720p or shrink 1080p! Nothin will run it right except the computer. They 'trim' 1080's that didn't work right? Cinnabuns; on another note, I am still in "Steam Offline" mode with 400hrs+ and Level 68. I ain't takin any chances somethings gunna break. I haven't takin a side in the cival war yet nor gone very far in the main quest.

I don't own Quake 2 so you're on your own on that one :P I'm only lvl 54 I believe, 165ish hours in... never took a side in the civil war but instead negotiated a peace treaty between the two sides o_0 ... The main quest has dropped off the Active Quests so I don't know where exactly I stand on it however I still have a dragon nest map which I've done nothing with nor was told to do anything with other than there being 8 named dragons. There are more "nests" on the map than 8 though, and no further instructions have been given so its kind of a mystery. Other than that I still have the quests under "Misc" to join either the Stormcloaks or the Imperials which is odd considering the peace treaty though it was mentioned by several characters that it "wouldn't last". I've iced the main dragon and other than continually doing Dark Brotherhood or Thieves Guild missions (I am a full member after finding the Crown of Barenziah), there doesn't appear to be much left. Guess its time to start on Arkham City...it is still fun running around Skyrim though on foot just exploring. Really some neat areas, streams, waterfalls, vistas, etc... _________________ i7 sandy 4.4ghz with a snorkel 1080gtx 8gb RAM Gigabyte P67-UD7 rev.

I have the latest drivers for my card (hd 6870), the .91 fix, and Skyrim updated through Steam to 1.3. I'm running into an issue where the patcher will tell me it has successfully patched the game, but Skyrim immediately crashes to desktop without even fully loading (process starts, exits before it even goes full screen). I've checked the ini file, and it shows iSize W and H at 5040 and 1050 respectively. At this point I'm not really sure what else I should be checking.

I don't believe the exe is modified, after 1.3 came out I no longer needed to use the loader for more than 2 gigs of memory. However, I do have skyrim script extender, and while that is a separate exe from which I normally run the game now, I've been trying with the actual TESV.exe; I don't know if skyrim script extender has modified it though.

Thats a possibility, why dont you delete both TESV and launcher .exes (backup first if you want) and use Steam to download them again using the "Verify Integrity oif Game Cache" function ?

Yes, it will probably break it, but HaYDeN should release a new version of the fix that will support v 1.4. Yes it normal, no problem.

Some of you may want to turn off auto updates in readiness for the (main) inbound patch. The Beta is an opt in so, unless you opted in, it should not bother any one.

Joined: 23 Oct 2008, 17:57 Posts: 72	Just gave the 1.4 Beta a quick whirl: Its a significant FPS boost, more then Skyboost SSE41 revision and by a good 20%. Meanwhile you guys are going to love how they rigged the dragonreach view to get more out of it. If you do the essential top of the stairs->tree view point with the crosshairs on the tree you'll notice at least in triple screen that the whole right-half of the town gets unloaded, for single screen players they would never know...but we do :P Now of course just need the mighty HayDeN to once again bring his magical UI fixer up to work with this one and its gold. _________________ 6700K, 2x1080s, 32GB DDR4 etc etc.

Is this saying it is not rendering your entire screen resolution? Is this something that might be a hard break that cannot be fixed with a memory tweak?

Is this saying it is not rendering your entire screen resolution? Is this something that might be a hard break that cannot be fixed with a memory tweak? Usually what we see is this, the important part is the hall of the dead building and stuff around it: Here's what happens when I adjust my point of view just a tiny bit further to the left: It appears that Bethesda has acknowledged that this view has been considered one of the more challenging for the engine to render...so they've got some sort of trickery in play that tries to unload parts that wouldn't be seen by a single screen resolution...or they just did a poor job of things. Either way this is the only spot I've see this effect within and it does flip back instantly if you look more towards the building. Same thing happens if you're close to the pillar on the left vs everything that is usually drawn on that side but is considered obscured by it. I doubt people with single resolutions are ever going to see this, end result is they see higher FPS in this shot without seeing that the extra stems from having less of Whiterun being rendered that's in their point of view off screen. This is definitely new in V1.4 and again this is the only spot I've seen such a thing happen so far. Either way the city comes back if you start to look in that direction and yah the FPS benefits are off the hook. Its a great patch no doubt, just kind of funny catching something like this and goes to show how they really aren't testing with or even really aware of triple screens anymore, which gives me a sad. _________________ 6700K, 2x1080s, 32GB DDR4 etc etc.

To get at Skyrim 1.4 you need to opt into the 'beta' through the steam panel, in there View->Settings and you'll see something about Beta Participation in the first tab, add the Skyrim beta and then you'll be patched up to 1.4. But yah Hayden's tool is meant to work with the last patch from December so we'll need to wait patiently for his update for this one before triple screeners can genuinely give this version a try in ultra wide. _________________ 6700K, 2x1080s, 32GB DDR4 etc etc.

Mine appears to work fine as is except for the 3d model for items/magic being large and off to the right instead of where it should be. Well not realy much as I copied off my whole Skrim folder at the start of this up date ..just in case. I only ran the 1.3.10 a few times shortly. I installed the original SkyUI manualy, it realy wants some other util/tool which I did not do. Dunno if its been updated since. It only works when I look at my own inventory as its supposed to. Columns sorted in various ways, smaller font, horiz' tabs. The models seem to be in the right place and zoom fine. (Skyrim 1.1) In 1.3.10 I can not test it realy but it did come up still working, can't get to the top of the menu. Others were asking about it before, much like yerself. So I put a wee mention of it at the bottom after any system changes just incase they were going to ask ..much like yerself. heh. My 1.1 seems to be a "stand alone" and does not need Steam in any way so I went back to that. Some of us are running low on vid-mem' w/triplets (2x ATI5870 1gig) and have to be careful what extra gfx' we add. I have 3. The others are enhanced sky w/nebula and a basic body/face skin clean up. I think these are more "replaced" textures and don't "add to" vid-mem' useage. The SkyUI adds a little or rather uses a little more. I use 2 other tweaks, ground/rox and tree "self shadow". Open Question; Whats with the "plant life", lots complain about it being "pixelated" and go to extra measures to alias them. (leaves/branches) Up close mine look fine. Realy fine. Other relavant stats; I run "High Quality" and ATI 12.1 drivers as well as above tweaks. ..or is it an "nVida" thingy. heh. _________________ - AMD 965 @3.8 - Gigabyte 790fx ud5 - AMD 7970 Ghz - OCZ Reaper 4GB - OCZ Vetex - Eyefinity 3x Asus vw266h - Samsung t260hd + 226ux - (soundcard) - Sony 5.1 ~700w - PC P&C 750w - Corsair K60 -

Unfortunately no, I just tried running the "supposed" 5760x1080 config with and without HaYDeN's work and it's no good. Without HaYDeN the models are still WAY too large and can't see the UI (zoomed in completely). With HaYDeN the base config has the 3d model off to the right mostly on the 3rd monitor, the 5760x1080 config has the 3d model superimposed over the inventory menu. However, other than the 3d model being in the wrong place, the menu's themselves work great! I'm going to try and work with it to see if I can get my own config to work.

Or maybe it's because my vertical res is 1050, not 1080; but the top items on all the menus are not visable or clickable to me. How would you adjust the 1080 res for 1050? I searched through the document, and it doesn't actually say 1080 anywhere, so I don't know how it works...

Download and Install SKYUI per the included instructions 3. Open SkyUI.cfg (should be in the data/interface folder) and modify the following itemicon.xOffset = 19.5 itemicon.yOffset = -8 itemicon.scale = 0.5 This is for 5760x1080 non-bezel corrected. This will fix the 3d model showing in the wrong location, This is for SKYUI 2.0, HaYDeN 0.91, and the 1.3.10 version of Skyrim. Edit: Added Screenshots. Attached files

If it doesn't work put it back and tweak another. "19" might be too much so try "19.2" ..etc. I tried the "1o8o" .cfg and it works fine on my 12oo's (192o x 12oo). ..yea, I upgraded to the SkyUI 2.

Worked for me. If not, I can only outline for you what I do when I have a CTD and the game will not start, maybe it will help you: 1) make sure Skyrim Script Extender is version 1.42 or 1.43 since your TESV.exe is 1.31 2) If using Script Dragon make sure it is between 1.3 1 and 1.415 3) download and run the nexus mod manager 0.14.1 and temporarily disable ALL your modes to see if the problem goes away. If it does then add them in a few at a time to find the culprit. Good luck!

For some wierd reason, everybody gets on the bandwagon of Skyrim failing to load/CTD eventually. I'm relieved and happy to say that the beta patch of Skyrim runs rock-solid, in my experience. I wasn't able to play at all, pre-beta. We'll have to wait on Hayden to come out of hybernation once there's a release-grade patch of Skyrim, to get the menus right...

Then look to any MODs that -might- be messing with screens directly, like a Map mod. Or memory getting pushed over a limit somewhere. I have seen a case where the 2nd stick of mem' was no good. Overclocking on unstable system, turn it down a notch or two. Both Vid cards running 16x or 8x PCIe and not one of each.. any other game troubles? ..details, details. _________________ - AMD 965 @3.8 - Gigabyte 790fx ud5 - AMD 7970 Ghz - OCZ Reaper 4GB - OCZ Vetex - Eyefinity 3x Asus vw266h - Samsung t260hd + 226ux - (soundcard) - Sony 5.1 ~700w - PC P&C 750w - Corsair K60 -

Hayden, if you are too busy could we perhaps beg off you the notes on what settings need to be hunted , and any other hints would help another programmer to duplicate your great work? Maybe the programmer just contacted can help. I have not coded since using assembly language on a 6502 based system, the commodore 64. Made a copy of PAC-man from scratch while skipping classes in high school. What version of c would be used for skyrim?

Joined: 07 Dec 2011, 20:31 Posts: 16	have to see if there is a way to turn off steam updates In theory, to disable steam updates is simple; Open steam library - right click skyrim and select properties - select updates tab - under automatic updates select 'Do not automatically update this game'. In practice though steam resets this option and goes ahead with the updates for many users. Some / most Skyrim users (depending on what you read) run steam in offline mode to counter this issue. It is reported though that as soon as steam online mode is reactivated the updates option resets and again the updates start downloading. I have read many posts on various forums about this issue and most people affected negatively rightly (IMHO) complain that either the option is broken or that steam want control of what updates we use - regardless of our want or need to control our own computers (to a degree). Other users sing the praise of the update feature and give arguments for how good the feature is and that it is supposed to update skyrim no matter what the user wants. I ask; why give an option to not update then ride roughshod other the users preference? The answers to that vary from uninformed through fanboy to outright rude! Anyway, it seems you have the right idea by keeping backups and using them till fix is found by one of the 'modders' on this forum. Minor edit for rewording

Tested from 800x600 to 5760x2160." I noticed an option for odd UI resolutions when I was installing it last night, but I got distracted before I actually fired up the game. My odd 8:3 aspect ratio was in their new options, so I'm quite hopeful. Aside from that, SkyUI is fantastic!

Sure, nothing's perfect, but let's not too harshly criticize the main game in town right now--and it works pretty well. :) Guys like Hayden, Helifax, Alexander Blade, etc., don't owe us a thing, fellas. We're lucky they love the same game and solve some of our our problems for us. :) Oh yeah, and did I say "thank you?" *ggg* Hello all, I have updated my fix for Skyrim.

I downloaded some app called CheatEngine (the name doesn't really make me feel very warm and fuzzy inside). I installed that. It asked me to do some tutorial. I started showing me some confusing windows. I closed out of it and it called me a Loser??? Next I downloaded CT table for 1.4.21.0.4 (NON BETA) and extracted the TESV_1.4_Final.CT to my desktop. I opened up the file using Notepadd++ and changed all the 5230 to 6048 and 1743 to 1920. I then started the game and ALT+Tab out of the game. I double clicked the CT file and watched the cheat engine tell me something, I don't know. I then ALT+TAB back into the game and everything is all squished into the middle and I can't seem to click on any of the menu stuff with the mouse and get it to register. So what did I do wrong?

It is active at that point, do not close the window. Depending on whwat menu you are in or if yo are reading a book you switch modes with the hot keys. Works good enough to play the game.

Joined: 03 Feb 2012, 11:16 Posts: 3	Thanks for the support guys. I'm really having a hard time trying to get Helifax's solution to work. Do I load the game to the menu where I'm ready load a saved game and then run the Cheat program? If so, I'm still getting three seperate screens but with no visible menu, also when pressing 0 (non keypad) I only see half of a stretched menu. I was using HaYDeN's solution before the patch (sorry Helifax, his is much easier to use) but I can't find the updated version. From what I see WSGF is only linking version 0.91, or is that contain the for Skyrim 1.4? Cheers

Then select the game process and click «Open». Return to the game and the main menu should look like this : Or like this : This is working for me.

Insiders Joined: 21 May 2011, 14:18 Posts: 1232	Hello all, No more worries!!!!!! I made a plugin for Dopefish famous WideScreen Fixer !!!!! Simply download this plugin, put it in the "Plugins" folder, start the game and activate the fix!!! Places where you will want to deactivate the fix are: - Loading screen (if you want to read the text :P ) - Before reading a book. - Before entering the map. Important!!! For those who are using nVidia Surround the plugin will automatically detect the resolution of your screen (from Windows) and will center the hud based on that. So if you play at other resolution than your Desktop either change to the game resolution or set it up manually! If you have any problems just let me know! If you are new to WidescreenFixer check the official page:) Big thanks again dopefish for providing the source code that I needed and info!! and for letting me to add more material to your already awesome tool!! So Happy Dragon Killing again!!! Ps: It currently support only 1.4 but in the future I will add support for the legacy version 1.3.10.

You need to download TESV_1.4_Final (NON BETA) file instead. When you start this version it should show you this : Just click «Yes to All». After that do what I posted last time, return to the game and this should be working. I can't help anymore if it still not working. No need to worry about ''Found: 0''

Joined: 02 Feb 2012, 01:05 Posts: 10	Hey Heli, luckily your original fix is working well for me because I'm having trouble with the dopefish plugin. LOL It's all working like it should, (I see game/fix running when I tab out and single mon rez is right), but when I activate the WSF key, my hud entirely disappears! haha, and if I open items menu or anything, it just freezes, showing nothing until I come out of the menu. When I hit the key to disable WSF the hud comes back. Don't know if anyone else is seeing this or has any ideas. Not stressing because your original way is working fine. :) And for those seeming to be having trouble with the CT way, you don't really need to open cheat engine at all. Put the table (TESV_1.4_Final.CT) on your desktop. When you tab out of Skyrim, just double click that file, say yes to running lula, and then tab back into Skyrim (usually 2x). Been working here, anyway. :) Good hunting. :) [Edit: typo] Hello all, No more worries!!!!!! I made a plugin for Dopefish famous WideScreen Fixer !!!!!

The HUD is centrered a lot better and skyrimui 2.1 looks perfect. I can deal with the extra steps to read a book and the map, I chose shift A as the hot key to toggle on and off. Donated to the guy $5.00 . The guy whomakes teh script dragon just updated it to the new version as well (another 5.00 ). Worth mroe than I can give, thank you guys and thank you Helifax!!! If Using skyrimui 2.1 the same ini tweaks in the skyrimui ini file work for thsi fix. So if you at itmes and the picture of the object is too far in nay direction, you can adjust it there as well as the size. Took me about 30 minutes to get mine perfect. Is Hayden ok though? I envy where he lives, New Zealand looks gorgeous in every movie or show made there (Xena, Hercules, Lord of the Rings, upcoming The Hobbit, many others).

Joined: 02 Feb 2012, 01:05 Posts: 10	For some reason, this has happened to me also after playing the game using Helifax's fix. It can be quite puzzling. For some reason, something doesn't change skrimpref.ini back. For example, my horizontal rez is set to 4064 in the ini. However, sometimes the game will change and leave it at (1354--the rez of a single monitor). When trying to run the game again, it won't load at all. Simply double-checking skyrimpref.ini to make sure it still has my screen rez correct, (4064x1020) always fixes it for me. I know, this one can be really frustrating/scary until you figure out what's going on. just don't do anything drastic. :) HTH somehow i managed to broke the game... now when i tried to run the game without any fix.. it pops up "Failed to initialize renderer. Your display doesn't support the selected resolution. Please set a different resolution in Skyrim's Launcher under 'Display Setting'.

So basically what you need to replace in the Script 5230 with 5760 and 1743 with 1920. Also if the menu is a little to the left you can add more pixels to 1920. For ex:1925 that will move it with 5 more pixels to the right:) I strongly recommend using the plugin for widescreenfixer and configure your plugin correctly from there! (for eyefinity disable the checkbox and write in your resolutions:)) Best Regards _________________ WideScreen Fixer... Fixes your Surround problems to give a gorgeous 3D Surround Experience!

In its folder you will see a folder "Plugins" where the you must put the dll file from my post. Launch WSF and select Skyrim from the list.

After just enable it again to have everything corrected. Let me know if it works;)) Ps: Just to be safe, as some people mentioned SkyrimPrefs.ini can get corrupted, put the file as read-only, Although my plugin doesnt write to files and I suspect a mod or something else modifing the file:) Best regards, Helifax _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

You need to find an "Update 4" download for Skyrim somewhere on the internet. It will include the v1.3.10 .exe and some other stuff, totaling about 200MB. Most likely in Googling you're going to end up on a torrent tracker FYI. Exe by itself is only 20MB. Oh. And turn off auto-update on steam, though there are reports this does little good sometimes. Or you can use Helifax's fix. *NOTE: If you use mods that are version dependent like SKSE etc, you'll need to mind you compatibility. If you don't use SKSE, it should be drag and drop of the EXE to get it working.

I must have missed it earlier but I forgot to disabled automatic resolution detection in the widescreen fixer tool (running ATI 5870x2). I just put 5760x1080 in both normal and corrected resolution boxes and then run the game and it worked! Just a few quick side notes (for debug purposes): 1). I'm also getting weird skyrimprefs.ini changes - specifically resolution changes as others have mentioned. Changing to read only will work in the meantime. 2). Everytime I quit to desktop from the ingame menu I receive the following error message from widescreen fixer. Windows Forms Error popup message: An application error occurred. Pleate contact the administrator with the following information: Process with an Id of 5456 is not running. Stack Trace: xxx info listed here. I think it may have to do more with the widescreen fixer tool itself then the skyrim plugin. (It sounds like it's trying to still write values to memory even though the application has exit). I also thought I would give the CT Tables another try and no dice. ( I did change the proper values to 5760 and 1920). The game menu still loads squished. Also answers to your questions above (in case you still need them): -running Skyrim 1.4 complete from Steam -Eyefinity (configured CT Table properly) -3 monitors -running Normal resolution of 5760x1080.

That's exactly the kind of fix that lazy people like me have been looking for XD Unfortunately, I'm using two screens, and it squishes the menu into 1/3rd of the screen width or less no matter what I put into the config. It's still totally playable, so I'm back to my old Skyrim antics thanks to you. Perhaps I'm just doing it wrong. Any insight into that? I'm using TH2G with two 1024x768 projectors.

The only thing you can do is put the config as "Read-only" (it is best even in the future:)) ) 2. Yes I saw that error and I working with dopefish in finding the cause of the issue and remove it. Still it doesnt affect the performance of the fix;)) As for the CT table..if the fix is working ignore it ;) But its the same code in the dll plugin. Although I did notice CT having unstable and unreliable results sometimes:( Thank you very much for all the provided feedback! It is very much appreaciated!!!!

Open SkyUI.cfg (should be in the data/interface folder) and modify the following >itemicon.xOffset = 19.5 >itemicon.yOffset = -8 >itemicon.scale = 0.5 Just reduce one of the numbers and try it. If it doesn't work put it back and tweak another. "19" might be too much so try "19.2" ..etc. I tried the "1o8o" .cfg and it works fine on my 12oo's (192o x 12oo). ..yea, I upgraded to the SkyUI 2. The font seems a little small still, I wonder if I can tweak that. Now that things are working otherwise, These changes did the trick! Thanks, Chainmale!

All the menus are lined up oke so they aren't behind any bezels. The only problem I now get with the wsf is that instead of the onscreen HUD being too much to the left, it's now placed too much to the right. (I say too much but the crosshair is about 1cm too much to the right) When I typ in my res in WSF it gives me a corrected res of 6050*1200 for my 5760*1200, is this correct or should I change anything? Also, do I have to do something with the bezel correction I use trough my CCC or can I just leave that enabled? I also found out that it seems to disable vsync for some reason, is this a known "side effect" aswell? Thanks for all the responses

dada257	Post subject: Hi Helifax. The plugin's Posted: 05 Feb 2012, 17:29
Joined: 02 Feb 2012, 01:05 Posts: 10	Hi Helifax. The plugin's working pretty well, so thanks again for being the only reason I can play right now. ATI 5870 here. Eyefinity x3, 4064 corrected rez, 3840 uncorrected. However, since you asked, this is some of the minor behavior I'm seeing. Yes, the Hud fonts are definitely "squished." (Also things like Character names, "Open Door" etc.) More importantly, I've noticed that if I set the rez in WSF as instructed, 3840 uncorrected rez, 4064 corrected, the map icons will float and move--whether I disable WSF before going in or not. Makes the map much less usable. However, if I have WSF at 4064/4064, the map will work fine--disable WSF and all the icons are where they're supposed to be and don't move when scrolling the map. I also don't really notice much of a difference in the overall display. (The only difference I've noticed is that with 3840/4064, the hud will jump to the far left screen when disabling WSF. With 4064/4064, the hud will go from squished to normal, but stay in the center when WSF is disabled.) Don't know why. Certainly, nothing that's preventing enjoyment, and certainly a heck of a lot better than Bethesda--who really are to blame for this in the first place. :)

For the fix to work properly activate it when the Bathesda logo appears, before the menu. Then everything will work out nice;)) I will improve it in the future to make it automatically enabled when the game is lunched;)) Best Regards, Helifax _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

For the fix to work properly activate it when the Bathesda logo appears, before the menu. Then everything will work out nice;)) I will improve it in the future to make it automatically enabled when the game is lunched;)) Best Regards, Helifax

Lev_Astov	Post subject: Thanks for the attention to Posted: 08 Feb 2012, 05:11
Joined: 16 Apr 2008, 02:43 Posts: 20	Hello all again, I made some modifications for resolution detection, HUD Width and HUD offset calculations and Now supports every configuration from 2 monitors to 1000001 monitors:) Now for a 5 monitor config the hud will appear on the 3rd monitor. Now for a 2 monitor config the hud will appear half on 1st monitor and half on the 2nd monitor (In the center of the whole rendered image). Thanks for the attention to my unique situation, Helifax! It's definitely calculating the offset right now, but just to make things difficult, it's still only displaying on the one monitor. When I put the following inputs in the config section: 2 monitors, 2048x768 uncorrected resolution, 2048x768 corrected resolution, it then says the following in the status window: HUD Offset: 512, HUD Width: 1024. That's correct. However, the HUD ends up looking like the attached images. I've tried this both with and without SkyUI and SKSE and got the same effect. Am I doing something wrong? I really don't quite understand what the corrected and uncorrected resolutions should be set to. Also, like many, I owe you beers. You should have a donate link! Attached files

Joined: 16 Apr 2008, 02:43 Posts: 20	Cool, Helifax. I did put 2 as the monitor number and I am using a TH2G digital edition for the monitor combo, so Windows should treat it as a single screen. That doesn't stop some games from omitting the right side of the UI, but I haven't seen that outside of Source games, and this time the UI is just scrunched to the one side, so that's different. I'd definitely be up for being the guinea pig, so send that stuff my way and I'll give it a go.

fodder	Post subject: What is the functional difference in the fixes? Posted: 09 Feb 2012, 05:59
Joined: 20 Nov 2011, 21:29 Posts: 19	Hi all, I have read the detailed report and a lot of the recent posts here and still have one basic question. What is the difference when playing the game between Hayden's and Helifax's fixes? I tried Helifax's fix when the game first came out and never got it to work. I am currently using Hayden's just fine on v1.3 and the skyui mod and am fat dumb and happy. (I have steam set to offline mode and just do not reconnect.) I am thinking of upgrading to 1.4 and getting the texture pack, framerate increase and such. But I am worried that I might not like the difference in play with the new fix. Hayden's was a great "click and forget" type fix. I thought I read Helifax's fix needed to be toggled at different points n the game. Is this still the case? and is it a pain in the rear to do? Thanks for any feedback. And thanks to the authors for finishing the game as Bethsoft should have. Thanks!

But apart from that he has done a great job, the widescreenfixer works brilliantly once it's setup properly and skyrim + 3 screens = epic. I even lowered Skyrim's FOV to I think 60 (im a fov whore like that,it has to be right) and it's amazing how life like and immersive the game has become. Draugrs are actually pretty big and scary now :D

I bought Deus Ex some times ago and it worked just fine with eyefinity out of the box... Incredible some big companies like bethesda can still make games without a good eyefinity support. So now we have to rely on patches and tricks like those ones on this thread... What a shame for those companies... I hope hayden will make his trick work with 1.4 version of Skyrim... Until then I'll just not play the game, and play other games instead... Hey, even titan quest works fine with Eyefinity ^^ I have a 6016x1080 resolution triple screen system.

With all due thanks and appreciation to Helifax for his fix, I would still like to throw a vote in for Hayden's fix being needed. Perhaps it was just my setup but Hayden's fix worked for me without having to swap "modes" before reading a book or using my map. All though this is not a huge issue, if given the choice to not have to use hotkeys I would definitely prefer it. Thanks to everyone here!

If you read the output log in his program, you can see how many bytes it's writing and for what purpose. I'm not sure if it's possible to inspect what's being written to as it happens though.

Joined: 23 Oct 2008, 17:57 Posts: 72	I tried editing Hayden's .91 to accept the 1.4 version and while I got it to proceed it'd just cause the game to CTD after doing its thing. (opened in a hexeditor and found the spot with the 1.3 version memtion and just changed the values while hoping it was a strprefix rather then a strcmp type check and it seems to be). Yah this guy would need to be fixed proper I'm afraid. Helifax your fix is neat and all but the second time I tried to open the map and my mouse got stuck on the left monitor was enough to me want the 'simple and it just works'ness of Hayden's fix. I've even tried cracking open the swf files that make up the game's UI but I really don't know what I'm looking for in terms of how to teach them to be more respectful of ultra wide resolutions. If anyone does happen to know flash though, I got at them by using the old FO3archive extractor to open up and pull them out of the interfaces.bsa and then opened them up with a trial copy of this swf editor: http://www.sothink.com/product/swfquicker/ I'm thinking that editing these files would be the best long-term solution since far as i understand they are the things being poked with the various memory editors any ways and this would make such a fix resilient to updates in the executable. _________________ 6700K, 2x1080s, 32GB DDR4 etc etc.

I haven't picked up this game since the first week I bought it since everything was so clunky with my 3H2Go setup. So back to flight simming I went. I decided today to see if there were any updates to make everything work well on 3x widescreen setups. It appears there was for a while right up until v1.4 updates rolled around. Easy question- Currently I have Helifax's (option 2) patch running to allow the widescreen work right. It appears this only fixes the resolution but non of the menu items, is that correct? While the menus are readable, they are entirely to large to be useful. If this what I need HaYDen's patch for? I trust once Hayden has a new working patch, I won't need Helifax's fix? I am confused as to which ones I will need in the end. Thanks and sorry for the noob question. Currently: 5040x1050 3H2Go Skyrim v1.4.21.04 Win7 64 / SB2600 @ 4.6 / 570 gtx 2.5gb Thanks Benjamin

It doesnt say what's written, but it does tell you how many bytes and what it's purpose is.

So 3 monitors and your resolution. Also be sure to manually insert the values in all the edit boxes, even if they are already written. This should work now:) _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Joined: 13 Nov 2011, 16:37 Posts: 10	Thanks for the suggestions guys. Still a no go. When I activate - all text goes away, hit '*' again and text comes back. Not sure what else to try here. 1 monitor set and values manually input in the W.fixer. You are correct zezgamer - OS = 1 monitor, powerdesk knows there are 3. I am not really sure how this plays into the mix but it must as the fixer couldn't be more straight forward. UPDATE: Ok, setting to Display Count: 3 and manually setting the resolutions seems to have worked. The front menu is squished if I activate WF on that page but everything else is correct. The hotkey to toggle just moved everything to the left screen. Otherwise, it just stays in the middle screen. Now... for some sort of mouse scaling. It's slow to the left / right. UPDATE 2 : Not everything is correct I guess. For example, the indicators of objects say like a chest are 1/3 size on the screen if the WF is active. If I deactivate the WF the text for comments on the screen are correct size but once you open the chest everything is x3 size again. Is this the correct function so far.. on screen notifications are small? I guess I could toggle like mad or just list with the small 1/3 size on screen notifications.

Joined: 13 Nov 2011, 16:37 Posts: 10	Yes - I have done that many times (in all combinations) to enable before main menu. That's where I started from since it noted to do so in the instructions. This yields a 100% blank screen (with intro music). Convinced this is relating to matrox treating game as 3 screens and OS as 1. Thanks for trying though I appreciate the help for sure. I can't stomach going to single screen after 5 years of 3x. It's just not the same. :) It should be noted: When I go look at the perfs.ini these settings a listed. bFull Screen=1 iSize H=1050 iSize W=0 Before I start the the game at all, I set it to 1050 / 5040. WF is set to (1) screen and both corrected / uncorrected are set a 1050 / 5040 SO - I went ahead and set the perf.ini to 5040/1050 and set the .ini to 'read only' Went back to the WF settings and set "3" monitors and 5040/1050. Low and behold, everything is working now! I new there had to be some combination that would do it. For whatever reason the perfs.ini was reloading to a 0 value and I think that was causing all the conflict. Thanks again.

I'm going to uninstall it and try through Nexus Mod Manager, as I saw that SkyUI has some triple screen configurable options listed when installed through there. Hey sniper, I use SkyUI with Helifax's fix on an eyefinity setup and it works no problem. I did use NMM to install it and selected the 48/9 aspect ratio (while I actually have 48/10 but whatever :p) and it seems to do the trick. The only annoyance, and I don't know if this is due to SkyUI or Helifaxes fix, but when you are in your inventory (or indeed any item related menu), the item you are hovering over is supposed to appear on the right hand side of the screen above the stats box... Well, in my case, it always appears right in the middle of the item list which makes it a bitch to find something :D Only solution I have is use the widescreenfixer key (while you have the inventory open), this will make the inventory move to your most left screen instead of the middle one and it will appear without issues. The biggest flaw with my work around is when it gives you a certain pop up, like for instance the vender doesnt have enough cash, you are screwed. Because that popup will appear on the middle screen and you cant get your mouse there. Tab or esc don't do anything so the only option I found was exit the game completely... This can be quite annoying if you haven't saved for a while. So think ahead :D

It is a bit tricky to find without a redirect from its old location. @Hellifax, dude I can't get your fix to work at all very well, I'm running eyefinity at 5040(5292 bez com) and the centre screen blurs out when I bring up the inventory but no inventory can be seen, the inventory is there, I can blindly scroll thru it and select random things, just can't see it. Auto detection certainly doesn't work, what manual entries should I be sticking in there for 5292 x 1050(base 5040). Auto seems to put in 5292x1050 in both corrected and uncorrected fields. If I press the enable hotfix key repeatedly, the UI occasionally appears on the wrong screen or really compressed or disappears again. Thanks for your efforts lads.

Add me to one who is patiently waiting for the next HayDen fix. I second the suggestion that a link to this new location be put at the old one as many of us has posted that link on various forums as a suggested place to look for a solution.

It is a bit tricky to find without a redirect from its old location. @Hellifax, dude I can't get your fix to work at all very well, I'm running eyefinity at 5040(5292 bez com) and the centre screen blurs out when I bring up the inventory but no inventory can be seen, the inventory is there, I can blindly scroll thru it and select random things, just can't see it. Auto detection certainly doesn't work, what manual entries should I be sticking in there for 5292 x 1050(base 5040). Auto seems to put in 5292x1050 in both corrected and uncorrected fields. If I press the enable hotfix key repeatedly, the UI occasionally appears on the wrong screen or really compressed or disappears again. Thanks for your efforts lads. Dude, If you read a couple of pages back;)) you will see that AUTODECT works only for NV Surround... Which obviously you dont have:)) So try to manually config the pluging:) Basically standard resolution is 5040x1050 and corrected it 5292x1050...Not hard yes? :)) I think it is better to wait for Haydens fix anyway:) Since it works and most of the people who were interested in the fix got it working;)) So no loss there;)) Best Regards, Helifax _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Does anyone know if they released the Developer kit yet? Ahhh, nevermind, I found it. :) Hey Helifax, thanks for posting your fix!

Ahhh never mind, I was being a n00b, the autodetect or myself must have inserted 1080 in the height fields at some point, I never noticed it as I was more concerned with the width. So I had 5040 x 1080 and 5292 x 1080 in the fields, obviously I should have had 5292 x 1050 etc in there. Keep up the good work Hellifax, I know everyone is looking for Haydens fix but yours is the only one working at the moment and that is appreciated. Hopefully that'll be an end to the patches until the DLC start arriving and you gents can have a break for a while (and concentrate on Mass Effect 3 ;) hehe )

So I am unable to use the fix, is anyone else getting this? Hopefully we'll have working fixes again soon from both HaYDeN and Helifax :)

I can't play with Eyefinity on because Bethesda can't be bothered to make things properly resolution-independent, and I can't disable Eyefinity, because the mouse keeps going off the game and into the desktop. By the time it comes out, will there be another version change and we're back in the same boat? Hayden, name your price for a public release of the source to Git, if that will entice you. I'm tired of waiting, and no disrespect, I know how busy life can get, but I'm sure I or some other user would have had more availability of time to have had it fixed a long time ago.

Second, his legacy method using the CheatEngine Tables never worked correctly for me. Third: Haydens fix works flawless without needing to switch anything on and off, while Helifax's fix must be toggled. I prefer to not be forced to install any other software (CheatEngine), nor do I want to use any hotkeys whenever I want to read books/map/whatever (Which is quite often). I really appreciate everyone's work, regardless of me using it or not. I just asked whether we will see an updated fix by Hayden. _________________ My Blog || YouTube Channel || Twitch Stream My PC || Game Screenshots Archive

Joined: 19 Feb 2012, 10:52 Posts: 2	Im a bit curious why people cannot make this great solution work, so here is how I've used Helifax's great work. I'm on a Radeon 7970 doing no Xfire, because with the lacking drivers its not stable. The 2nd card is turned off. My way to glory and a great game. 1. Downloaded and installed CheatEngine61 2. Downloaded the CT table for 1.4.21.0.4 3. Downloaded the Skyrim_Center_HUD_V2_Multi-monitor_Standard_Resolutions. I was all taken from this page: (scrolling down to the bottom of the page just before the Screenshots) http://widescreengamingforum.com/dr/elder-scrolls-v-skyrim/en I then opened the CT table in a notepad and did the same with the table that I needed from the package in 3. (For me it was the 5760 one), and went ahead and changed the resolutions in the CT table (Also called TESV_1.4_Final) with the ones from the 5760 one, and VOILA! it works. The lines I needed to change ended up looking like this: writeInteger(myAdd1,1920) writeInteger(myAdd2,1920) writeInteger(myAdd3,1920) --------------------------------- writeInteger(myAdd3,0 ) <---- No space between the 0 and the ) but the forum makes it into a smiley! writeInteger(myAdd2,5760) writeInteger(myAdd1,5760) val=1 else if val==1 then writeInteger(myAdd1,1920) writeInteger(myAdd2,1920) writeInteger(myAdd3,1920) ------------------------------- writeInteger(myAdd1,5760) writeInteger(myAdd2,320) writeInteger(myAdd3,60) val=2 else if val==2 then writeInteger(myAdd1,1920) writeInteger(myAdd2,1920) writeInteger(myAdd3,1920) ------------------------------- writeInteger(myAdd1,1920) writeInteger(myAdd2,5760) writeInteger(myAdd3,0 ) <---- No space between the 0 and the ) but the forum makes it into a smiley! val=3 else if val==3 then writeInteger(myAdd1,1920) writeInteger(myAdd2,1920) writeInteger(myAdd3,1920) -------------------------------- Now all I have to do is tab out after starting the game, and run the CT table file, choose yes, and tab back in, and I can use the buttons 0, B and M to change resolutions when needed in game. Only thing that looks a tad off for me is reading notes. The text is somewhat squished together in the left side of the note, but other than that its great!

However, I finally had time to put helifax's version into the fixer and run Skyrim, and when I apply the fix, all my screens go black and I'm not really sure. Thanks to whoever is able to help me with this, it'd be much appreciated. If it says it in another post then sorry for the wasting your time.

Joined: 30 Jul 2007, 12:38 Posts: 61	Helifax, thanks for your efforts. The Widescreen Fixer didn't work for me, because upper and lower parts are cut off, but the Cheat Engine Script is o.k. It (or the game) resets the SkyrimPrefs.ini resolution to that of a single monitor. For the moment I set to read only, which seems to be an acceptable workaround. The only real problem seems, that I nearly cannot read books any more. See Any ideas? Maybe can stretching activated in book view?

All I said was it sucks to have to rely on someone to fix it each update, which is simply a factual statement. I was looking at the SkyUI description and it says it supports "exotic" resolutions but as we all know it doesn't automatically adjust without a multi-monitor fix. I posted a comment asking exactly what they mean by "supports" and if there are values I might need to change in the cfg.

But of course this doesn't work right now with the newest version of Skyrim because Helifax's fix doesn't handle the menus the same way (other parameters are to be used for SkyUI.ini) and HaYDeN got kidnapped by aliens and we hope he we safely return to us and continue his work of Skyrim if not too traumatized :) PS: I discovered that most game if not all (those I tried anyway like Skyrim (menus and dialogs issues), Kingdoms of Amalur (some menu issues), Mass Effect 1-2-3 (menus and dialogs issues)) support natively the resolution of 2400x1200 (basically 800x600 x6) which I can achieve on my 6 screens setting and still have the game displayed on all screens. So for now, with all those pesky games which do not have a native support of WideScreen, it is at least a resolution I can play in full screen instead of my normal 5760x2160 (1980x1080 x6).

Joined: 30 Jan 2012, 20:16 Posts: 13	So, I am thankful for Helifax and his continued support but can't stop thinking about what Hayden did to create his script. It sucks that he is MIA, but I'm sure he has better things to do than write free fixes for Bethseda's oversight. For the record though, I will send him $50 if he updates his script and I hope others do to. It is incredible that Skyrim, arguably the "Game of the Year", does not have multi-monitor support, whereas a game like The Witcher 2 does in DX9 from a smaller studio. And that the community of intelligent people like Helifax and Hayden are picking up the pieces. But I digress... Anyone have any ideas on how Hayden created his script? Where does one start to write this kind of a thing? Can anyone point me in the right direction? What kind of research has to be done to implement such a script? I am assuming this involves Visual Basic and C++ but really have no clue as websites and desktop support are my thing.

Look, I too appreciate Hayden's work, so it would be a boon for him to show us all how it's done so that we could participate in an inclusive manner or educate ourselves or many other reasons, rather than sit by the sidelines. I actually *want* to be active, but I suspect I may not have his expertise. He seems to have found a really good way to work with Skyrim and make it do what it needs to do. I just don't understand why people think I am an ingrate or something for asking to help and then start getting all whiteknight-y.

Granted, there are some ungrateful scumbags that want to piss and moan about this, that, and the other thing; but in general, the whole of the internet is entirely too sensitive. Everyone wants to take offence or be captain save-a-hoe. Usually one does it and ten more want to 2nd his comment and pat him on the back. They like to gang up like some kinda internet Power Rangers. It wasn't always like that. Back in my day men were men and sensitivity drew scorn and mockery! Anywho.... C'mon HaYDeN! I'm almost ready to perform sexual favors for an update to your fix.

If you don't know how then be very thankful someone else is I've got mad respect for the work the Hayden and Helifax have put into to giving us the gaming experience we should've got from the company itself; and I am certain there is a good reason why they've chosen to keep their work private, but that attitude is just BS. If they want to keep the work they do for themselves, that's fine.. they are putting a ton [I'm sure] of their own time into it, and we as gamers owe them countless hours of awesome gaming (that I for one wouldn't have without them.. I just can't bring myself to play skyrim on one screen), but outright saying just do it yourself or be grateful? Must be nice way up on that pedestal of yours; I take it you've never once in your life used what someone else figured out before you, to accomplish something (android, custom kernals, linux, wordpress, anything you've ever been taught!) People are asking because [for the most part] they honestly want to help; not to be a$$#o73$ with the "if you can't I will attitude" Isn't that what this whole community (and oh so many like it, hackforums, xda, etc) are about anyway? If we knew how to fix this, or had the time to devote to learning, we wouldn't be here given such high praise and support to these guys for their hard work. No need to be a dick; be constructive or go post with the other /b/ros on 4chan.

Yeah:( that is too bad... Imagine if we would merge all the fixes into one tool!;)) One tool for everything ^_^ This seems like a great idea and has its merits. However, it still does not change the fact that Beth could sort this issue out once and for all by making the Skyrim menus etc scale properly. The thing is, trying to explain the issue or ask politely for a fix over at the Beth forums is somewhat akin to banging your head against a brick wall or blowing against the wind (clean version) - either way, ya gonna looooooose! (I say this with the greatest respect for the mods over in those forums - I suppose their job is somewhat like trying to nail jelly to the ceiling sometimes!)

As for the various fix choices, I guess that is why some folks drive Chevys and some Fords, Some Toyotas and some Huyndai's and some Mercedes and some BMW's. The two dedicated people who have worked on SKYRIM WSG fixes are to be thanked by all of us. I have my favorite for this game but I do think that this is a case of 2 + 2 = 5. _________________ CPU i-7920 DO @3.6 Ghz, PSU Corsair AX1200, GPU's 2 EVGA GTX 580's in SLI Surround, Monitors 3 Ea Samsung 245T's 24" @ 5760 X 1200, Storage, Boot Drive 120 Gb OCZ Vertex 2 SSD, Program drives, 2 Ea 300 Gb V-Raptors in RAID 0, Storage drive, WD RE3 1 TB, M

While I do not have the source publicly available I'm willing to work with anyone interested in making plugins. You don't need access to the source to make plugins for Widescreen Fixer, and as long as you know what you're doing with Cheat Engine, it's really simple to take the data you found and wrap it up in a plugin. Just get in contact with me and we can discuss source arrangements and SVN access. _________________ Widescreen Fixer - https://www.widescreenfixer.org/ Widescreen Fixer Twitter - https://twitter.com/widescreenfixer Personal Twitter - https://twitter.com/davidrudie

Joined: 02 Feb 2012, 04:46 Posts: 33	No disrespect intended...but wouldn't it be easier just to make the plugin compatible with WSF? I mean why use so many applications ? The scope should be to have a unified architecture (application) which we can easily maintain and in which we can easily add more fixes and also improve it..instead of having an app for each fix... At least this is my idea;)) if someone would open source an application that took plugins, it would be super easy for many more people to just pick up and write a new/updated plugin for a patcher system that is already created. _________________ ============================================ AMD FX8320 - ASUS Sabertooth 990FX Alphacool and Heatkiller Watercooling 16GB Patriot DDR3 - HIS R9 280x & 7950 Crossfired NZXT H440 - Razer Naga Epic - 4320x900 3x Samsung 940Bw Corsair Ax1000i - Logitech DiNovo Edge & G13 ============================================

Creat Engine is just a tool to do the same thing most of these fixers use, and that is to open up the program while its in memory and ether injecting or changing the code or data of the exe while its running. The fixers are just very specific tools created to fix XYZ game easily by doing the memory editing for you, while cheat engine is just a tool to read, search and edit the memory of any running program. Cheat Engine is called as such because it was originally created to make trainers, it just happens it can also be used to make the fixes we use here. _________________ : ) Skid : ) My Multi-Monitor Focused YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/c/SkidIncGaming My Twitch channel which I've been known to stream on from time to time: http://www.twitch.tv/SkidInc "Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality."

WTF? why the game developer is doing this to us? why my game has to rely on one programming guru to fix if and whenever he has spare time to fix it? This is just all kinds of wrong... WTF!

As for open sorce, the original author has the right 100% of the time to keep the code to themselvs or to open it. Those of us that did not do the work only have one choice, use it or not. If there is a new fix that is easy to use and that works I may come back to SKYRIM one day. Without a fix from Bethesda however I will certainly NOT buy any expansions or DLC. _________________ CPU i-7920 DO @3.6 Ghz, PSU Corsair AX1200, GPU's 2 EVGA GTX 580's in SLI Surround, Monitors 3 Ea Samsung 245T's 24" @ 5760 X 1200, Storage, Boot Drive 120 Gb OCZ Vertex 2 SSD, Program drives, 2 Ea 300 Gb V-Raptors in RAID 0, Storage drive, WD RE3 1 TB, M

I am not talking about donation, but I believe there is a small niche market for user like me (us?) that are in Triple (head) or screen (infinity, whatever) and who are using game apps, always hopping for support form the makers, or month later that someone make a fix. There is indeed not a general application that works with "all games" (yeah I know it is an impossible dream...), but from what I see form this great community on Wsgf the "brains" are here, and so are the users... More to the point : Team work, and kickstarter... (www.kickstarter.com) I would not dare telling you what to do, but to me it make sense... you could get spotlight, funding, and it could be a good way to gauge your future market even if it looks small. Maybe it is bigger than what I think, maybe it is smaller... But when I see Nvidia and AMD showing off product on TripleScreen at convention/E3 what ever... I can't help thinking that once inside the spotlight you could get a reconnaissance/ help for them to distribute your application.... (let's go on dreaming...) in the CD that is given with every CG with the driver... Who knows ? Maybe it a good think to think about that ? (but maybe your regular jobs are swamping you, and spending too much time on this is not a solution, money/time wise) I have no idea. I do believe there is a market, small, but one. (now that all the CG are eye infinity/triple enabled) (I am a TripleHeader btw) Anyway, keep it up, my game experience wouldn't be the same without all of you. Merci again.

Well, my error, and I wont make it again. Finally, thank you to both Hayden and Halifax. I did get to play Skyrim for several weeks using Hayden's fix, so I thank you for that. I never could get Halifax's fix working, but admittedly, didn't really try that hard. Still, I appreciate his efforts. Movin on.... Var

I agree with you and sure there is a market for this sort of 'fix'. But the most important part is... if someone started (or "kickstarted") a new company and start tapping into that market, I am very sure the big boys (game developers and video card markers) would be like "oh wow, there actually IS a market for this kinda of thing we considered as waste of time... maybe we should start making DLC and get a share of that pie... for god sake, those are our games/cards afterall, we should be the one going to the bank..." i guess my point is, to those fat cats, we can post as much as we want on their forum, they will just see it as "trolling from fanboys"... the only way we can get their attention is to show them there is a market for this sort of carp... there is $$$ to milk, and all they have to do is just have someone look into a solution for multi-screen game plays....

Joined: 23 Feb 2012, 10:49 Posts: 29	Helifax!! I have definitely been using your fix! Much much appreciated, my friend! If it wasn't for you, Skyrim would have been shelved because the game is unplayable without your fix... When I first tackled and decided to 'inject your fix', I'll admit that it took me a bit to figure the whole process out. I've been successfully using your fix, but also admit that I get confused on whether the fix should be activated/deactivated when doing certain tasks (i.e. looking at maps, inventory, spell book, books, etc). Too clarify, I clearly know 'when' to activate, but in the heat of the battle, I sometimes forget to activate and I end up having to exit out of Spells/Inventory in order to activate...I'm running 5760x1080 and if I leave the fix activated, while on the main screen (while fighting), my HUD (compass/direction) at the top is shrunk-Cant see my next direction/task markers....Am I just retarded or am I missing something in the fix that I haven't implemented? I'm also using the CT 5760/Cheat Engine program (listed on your fix page), but have a question regarding a couple of lines on your directions --> "To add your custom Resolution open the FILE in NOTEPAD++ and search for 5230 and 1743. The first number replace it with your Eyefinity/Surround Width Resolution. The second number is the resolution of one monitor. For example: 5230/3=1743. DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE!!!" Question--> Is the FILE you're referring to here the CT 5760 file that I've been using? I never 'replaced' any numbers that specified my width resolution nor the resolution of one monitor within the CT file!? All I've done is Alt Tab out of game and launch the CT 5760 file. I DID, however, replace the resolution in my skyrim pref.ini file...Did I miss something else? ...Lastly, should I be running BOTH the CT/Cheat Engine Program (after the game loads) AND the Widescreen Fixer r312 program (before the game loads)? ...Appreciate your input. I've played with your fix for some time now and wanted to make sure I was doing everything right and getting the most out of it! ~MaxSharp

Its an app called "flawlessws", thats similar to dopefish's widescreenfixer, that uses plugins to run specific game solutions. He will release on sunday only skyrim's plugin (supporting v1.4), and will add new games in the future. Please keep checking this thread and game's Detailed Report, we will update it as soon as he releases the fix. wahhhhh still no Flawless I used his old one for alice madness returns and it worked great

I'm not sure if this was mentioned before but if you rename your 'TESV.exe' to 'fallout3' (do not add .exe [If you have issues, add the .exe]), you'll gain a significant amount of FPS (Depending on your PC specs of course). I ran SkyrimUW and it works with 'TESV.exe' but not 'fallout3.exe'. It would be nice to use SkyrimUW without the major framerate drop so is it possible for you guys to add this?

Hell, give me a skin contract and a blood quill and you can even have my soul, on top of the paypal funds ;p Just name your price and we'll make it happen! side note: anyone know what happened with Bf3?

Also, for anyone running mods, they updated the load order logic/code for steam workshop, etc to new encoding... so if you need to re-order mods you have to do it from the launcher now until the utilities such as NMM, BOSS, MO, etc get updated to the new encoding/system.

I do wish Bethesda would support triple screen but we all know that isn't going to happen anytime soon. I very much appreciate HaYDeN and Helifax's solutions but these guys need to do what's important in their own lives first before focusing their extra time on fixes for us. BTW, HaYDeN if you need a tester again let me know. I've been testing a lot lately and don't mind doing a little more.

Joined: 07 Dec 2011, 20:31 Posts: 16	Hi guys, Seems we have an answer from Bethesda on the wide screen gaming issue! In a recently opened thread about WSG a mod posted this: 'Use this topic please.' and linked to here: http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1340144-eyefinitysurround-ui-issues-merged-similar-topics/. The link also got locked. Then the mod locked the linked (merged) topic having pointed at it - see: http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1340144-eyefinitysurround-ui-issues-merged-similar-topics/page__st__60. Note that in answer to a user post saying 'I tried to start another thread just to get their attention. They locked it as I was expecting them to do. It would be nice if someone from the team would just give us an answer. ' the moderator replied; 'It would be even nicer if you posted in the correct thread as linked last time and not restart closed topics.' Obviously, this mod thinks it is OK to treat Bethesda customer queries or complaints as petty and the multi monitor issue as trivial. This is apparent in the actions of this mod. EDIT: Seems pointless to me to post about the WSG again over at the Beth forums - Any chance of WSGF contacting Beth directly? If this is the official line from Bethesda - it stinks - we can kiss any hope of an official fix goodbye. :( So, thanks Bethesda - way to treat your customers and loose at least one in respect to future purchases. NEW EDIT: Yet another mod has got involved and closed another WSG thread with the post; 'The suggestion that people spam the forums with new threads rather than keeping the discussion in a central location is not appreciated. You're welcome to voice your support in the existing thread, but please be more considerate of the forum rules. ' WHAT AN INCONSIDERATE IDIOT! We cannot reply to the existing thread as those guys have locked it. No wonder we are not getting an official fix with fantastic thinking and attitudes like those shown by those mods. It makes ya wanna scream at Beth - 'learn something about customer relations!'

Will be interesting to see how my request to reopen the (merged) thread goes. I am more than willing to admit I was wrong! It appears I may have been a bit rash. After editing my pm to one of the mods involved, it seems the matter is being looked into. The mod asked my to contact another mod (shift rotation it looks like) and if the issue is not resolved then the mod I have been in contact with will get back to it ASAP. I just hope it is my rashness as apposed to the seemingly bad attitude of the other two mods!

skipclarke	Post subject: When trying to find the email Posted: 01 Mar 2012, 01:47
Founder Joined: 13 Oct 2003, 05:00 Posts: 7358	When trying to find the email address of someone at a company, the way to do it is to take the person's name and match it to an email address you can publicly find from the company. This person's name is Erik Deitrick. The thing to do is to find the format of the company's email system. The best place to do that is in a press release. Company press contacts often have their name and email address at the bottom. You can find out the format used by the company: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] etc., etc., etc. I tried looking up press releases for Bethesda, but all I found were these at bethblog.com http://www.bethblog.com/category/press-release/ They are listed, but none of them have contact information at the bottom. The contact page there redirects to bethsoft.com http://www.bethsoft.com/eng/contact.php Which simply has a form. Bethesda is owned by ZeniMax http://www.zenimax.com/contact.htm But there are no email addresses either. Best I can do at this point is to try and call them and get through to either that UI designer and possibly the Executive Producer of Skyrim (whom we sent our awards to). With this community and Google, maybe we can find the email format. This tactic comes from an article at the Consumerist about launching an "Executive Email Carpet Bomb". http://consumerist.com/2007/05/how-to-launch-an-executive-email-carpet-bomb.html

It does boggle my mind that the company itself wouldn't want to see or play this game internally on multi-montors however. This really is the part that surprises me the most. I just can't believe they aren't using multi-montiros to enjoy their own creation to it's fullest internally and if they do have a solution that allows them to do this internally it would be a true shame not to impletment or deliver it to their customers. Either way, this part just blows my mind. Other than that I have my own fix with the help of Helifax's fix and some other peoples work that is getting me by. I wish I knew what tools HaYDeN uses to create and package his fix and I would put time into learning how to do it myself if someone pointed me in the right direction but I just don't know how to package a fix the way he does.

Unfortunately, for all of the people here, my programing experience is mostly all in Assembly code for programming and testing our Analog Devices ADSP Microprocessors which operate in our hardware. My coding experience is geared for operating military and aerospace equipment such as servo and driver electronics rather than work In gui interface fixes that target TESTV.exe files. I have modified a ton of peoples C++ and some VB code over time to interface with our hardware but rarely ever write my own C++ or VB code from scratch. It is too bad we don't have HaYDeN's source code as that is what I'm best at, modifying and testing other peoples code. I can say I will try to figure this out using VB but if I were you people I wouldn't hold my breath. :( Another side note: I agree it is interesting to watch and see how much people will pay. If I were HaYDeN i'd hold out for $1K or start paying you right away since you are right here. :)

There are now a significant number of people running widescreen and MM setups, and developers who promise support need to know that this is not acceptable.

There are now a significant number of people running widescreen and MM setups, and developers who promise support need to know that this is not acceptable. What would the money do for us, that old fashioned grass roots lobbying wouldn't do?

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 00:36 Posts: 47	And that is why I have now stoped playing SKYRIM. I really like the game but it is not worth all this work. Work and agrivation required to have fun? Nonsense. I am not going to play games on a single screen, may as well get a console, I am not going to spend day after day fixing and refixing a game or having to look for an updated fix. Bethesda may as well just go to making console games for all I now care. They have lost me as a customer. Perhaps in six months or so I will check back to see if they have fixed it. if so I will reload it and play. A successful company strives to satisfy all of its customers and while that is not always possiable they should at least never openly disrespect any of them, especially those that are leading edge. _________________ CPU i-7920 DO @3.6 Ghz, PSU Corsair AX1200, GPU's 2 EVGA GTX 580's in SLI Surround, Monitors 3 Ea Samsung 245T's 24" @ 5760 X 1200, Storage, Boot Drive 120 Gb OCZ Vertex 2 SSD, Program drives, 2 Ea 300 Gb V-Raptors in RAID 0, Storage drive, WD RE3 1 TB, M

Playing this game on single screen is god awful compared to eyefinity. As for beth not supporting it, well that's there choice. We are so very minor in the consumers market. Pc sales are way smaller than consoles and the 3 screen gaming community even smaller. Out of all the sales they get on this game we are probably 1% lol. supporting 3 screen is more for a company's bragging rights

Joined: 23 Feb 2012, 10:49 Posts: 29	For those that have written me (for Kudos) in regards to my post on Bethesda, I salute you...I encourage everyone to speak their mind and post on that damn site. Enough is enough... Dear Beth, For goodness sakes it's flippin March and Beth's only response/acknowledgement to this issue has been, "Um, we don't support multiple monitors....please change back to 1 monitor, please". What? Are you kidding me? Is this not Bethesda/Skyrim...The #1 Game that single handedly lowered overall PC Game sales since its release date? Really? You're joking, right? Might I remind you that it's March, again...and I've read hundreds, if not thousands of posts from 'Frustrated Wide Screen Gamers' asking politely for a simple answer...Months have gone by and still not a single acceptable response has been released.. Not even a... 1. "Hey, as popular as this game is, a Wide-Screen Fix will be implemented in the near future." 2. "We understand your frustration, we'll look into it and address the problem." 3. "You got us! We dropped the football on this one and should have caught it before launch." 4. "Hah! April Fools...The fix will be in the next update to be released 4/1/12." 5. "Widescreen gaming?? What's that? Tell me more about this you will!" I would take flippin anything at this point! Write it on a damn napkin and slide it underneath the table like my friends wife did to me the other night. I won't blush nor say 'No'....Just stop the damn silent treatment or this relationship is just not going to work anymore. I will break-up with you, Beth. Might I remind you that it's March, again...and we haven't spoken in 4 months. I've read posts from so many people that try and kiss Beth's butt for an answer, apologize for raising their voice, and dance around the real truth that this 'Menu Problem' is a very simple issue that can be easily fixed by your designers....which will ultimately make MANY MANY faithful Beth Fans happy! This is not Fluff...This is Truth! Why should we have to rely on Third Party designers to play your game? I just don't get it?? I also don't understand when Nvidia Surround/ATI Eyefinity are advertising their product like the Dickens, Monitor costs are currently dirt cheap and Widescreen Gamers are being produced faster than a Barn Full of Rabbits...yet Beth is turning her sweet cheek to such a dedicated group of consumers. I mean, throw me a bone here? Why? I'm completely confused on this...Baffled....I feel like you just told me that I was adopted. What did we ever do to you anyways?? All we did was build a sweet system to drool over you, Beth? I'm not going to sugar coat it anymore because I'm sick of being bent over the couch and forced to play Minecraft until a fix is released. Four months of Axing/Shoveling Dirt with a Diamond pick is all I can handle. I've been so bored that at one point I actually video taped my face while playing minecraft and realized after 1 hour of straight playing/'picking' I looked 100%...completely retardo in the face. Let's be honest...If I built this flippin rig for Minecraft, then I was either still delusional from the wifey yanking me to see the 'Vow' or I was unable to find a 'mint condition' Commodore 64... Take my comments how you may, but from the sounds of it--they are complementary. Spending $5k on a system, for a Multiple Monitor supported game that I had complete faith in, is a sweet sweet complement...And for such love & popularity, Skyrim/Beth can't even get the correct Menu Scaling issue resolved!? Basic, older, more primitive/childish games already work with Multiple Monitor Gaming....which, truthfully, is the funniest part of this whole 4+ month long plea... Did I mention that it was MARCH!? If I may, I'd like to introduce an analogy....It's like buying a Ferrari without a steering wheel...For God Sakes, if a consumer brought back his brand new Ferrari to the dealership and reminded the Dealer that they forgot to install a damn steering wheel, the sales person would not stare at the ceiling and give him the silent treatment. He would give him a wheel so that same guy could go out & enjoy his toy/rig...the same toy/rig that he built/saved up for these past two years! ...And forgive me if Beth is actually a female...If I may...It's like purchasing a Louis Vuitton bag and realizing it has no shoulder straps...You would not want to carry this purse anymore and you would demand the store implement an easy fix to sew some damn straps on...Wouldn't you!? ....The fact is that it's MARCH and MARCH MADNESS happens during this month and I would love to see Beth let down her hair a little bit...maybe hike up her skirt a smidge and do something for her audience that we haven't seen before...Let's get a little CrAzY, Beth!? What do ya say, Ol Girl...Let's give em something to talk about. How about it, Beth? How about telling us when a permanent fix, for Wide Screen Gamers, is going to happen? Just a hint...a hopeful thought...a wing or a prayer. So many are waiting for you to speak (with hopeful promise) during the month of MARCH.....I Love You, Beth. I look forward to hearing from you. P.S. I apologize about my friend's wife...Won't happen again. With Love & Respect, ~MaxSharp

"Here is our product it only works on 1 screen and we sell it for this amount. Sorry but it does not work on 3. We will not support 3 screens and if you are not willing to play it on just 1 screen then please don't buy it" Simple as that This does not mean I am happy with this it just means that is the way it is. Complaining and bitching on forums may or may not change the way they sell there products. All I care about is the fix. Helifax has made it possible to play the game without problems and Hayden can perfect it. Thats all I care about because I have zero faith that beth will add eyefinity support....unless we give them lots and lots off money lol In the mean time I am going to enjoy the game

Take the road less traveled and let them know that we are only upset because we care so much for the game, and appreciate what they do and have ♥ and respect for them anyway, regardless of the outcome. I'm severely disappointed at the lack of Eyefinity/Multi-Monitor support and it really deflated me when, at 1am after standing in line for a physical PC copy of Skyrim all night, to find that the game I had been waiting for forever would not 'work' on my setup just like everyone here, but w/e. I'm finally at the 'acceptance' phase of this loss, and anger and frustration is counter-productive. _________________

I play @ a 5740x1200 resolution, but now the menus are faling out of bounds again, since the 3rd party fix (SkyrimUWv0.91) doen't work with 1.4 patch. Why on earth did you people make a patch that still does not address this Issue!!! To me and i'm sure many others, this is the most importand issue that sould be fixed. What is even worse; 1.4 gets pushed down your throat via steam, and i cant roll back the patch. The game is worthless for me without proper eyefinity support! i invested a good ? 3000,00 in my gaming rig, and you people haven't got the decency to fix these outscaled menus. I think it should be easy to do, because a 3rd party modder can, or at least did it for previous versions, all the more reason for me to think WHY???? I attached 2 screenshots with the menu issue, as you can see this way the menu misses vital information on the various items and ingredients and so on. I could go on for hours stating my discontent, but i think its all clear now. Hope you guys can supply a fix/patch/solution soon. Best regards, Stoffie (a disillusioned Skyrim fan) AND THIS I GOT IN REPLY: "Hello, As far as we are aware the game does not have any official eyefinity support built in, this is why you need 3rd Party modifications in order to make it work correctly. I can only suggest that you wait for the 3rd party modder to update whatever mod they have created to enable this to work in the game. Regards, Jamie D. Bethesda technical support. " So i hope Hayden's fix will come arround soon.... Cause Bethesda isnt supporting this. _________________ STOFFIE

I'm a developer and, although I've never worked on something that tweaks a running exe, I am more than willing to create an open-source solution that the community can use and tweak even if I stop. ;) If anyone can shed some light into what is being fixed, it could streamline the amount of work to be done.

I can say yes...he will release his update NOW. Are interested in the update or in a post? I would say patience.. As for open Sourcing ...I don't agree. The fewer people that are working on a fix the better. Less chance of screw-ups. I see alot of people who arent able to set-up 2 simple things...and are complaining that is not working;)) As a different Idea: I will try to improve the fix in order to minimize the chances of something getting wrong. _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

I understand your flawless awesome fix will need time and patient... but there are many many many of us have stopped playing Skyrim ever since the last update... would you please please please bless us with an update of your Skyrim fix so we can get back to the game while you work on your awesome flawless suite?

I really don't understand why people were having so much trouble getting Helifax's fix to work anyway. Seriously, does this mean I can stop trying to figure out how to write yet another fix? I made some (small) progress trying to figure this out in VB but (and I'm not kidding) this would take me at least 4-6 weeks to figure out. i could keep going if we seriously think we need to release the source code for a fix but I really am not even sure mine will ever work even as well as Helifax's anyway, and it sucks trying to write this all from scratch since other people have already figured this out. Welcome back HaYDeN!

Joined: 23 Oct 2008, 17:57 Posts: 72	When TestV is run, is it fully loaded into memory, or are parts of it swapped in and out of memory? The app or the app and all of its data? The data is swapped in and out as needed, otherwise you'd see TESV occupying the same amount of memory as the data folder which is way more then the 32bit executable can map. You'll also notice that when you're running around a small indoors area the game's system and vram usage is lower then say wandering the wilderness and the amounts will grow/shrink as you change zones. If the game had a genuine 64bit executable it could probably throw the entire thing into system ram (provided you have enough room) but currently it has to pick and choose what's relevant to the scenes you're in due to the 4.3GB limit of a 32bit LAA enabled executable. Meanwhile, a hacky work-around to that if you're looking to take advantage of a lot of system ram is to make a ramdisk, throw the game's folder in there and launch from there. ;) _________________ 6700K, 2x1080s, 32GB DDR4 etc etc.

When I zoom into items like weapons they seem a bit large is that normal? Another is when the game loads I cannot see the writing that is in the lower right hand corner. Do I need to adjust the hud settings? Neither of these things affect the game play so I'm not worried if they don't work

I guess you found some issues which is why you took the attachment down -- just wanted to say that it did not work AT ALL for me, HUD elements seemed to be completely off screen, i.e. I was greeted with a blank initial menu when activating it like you stated during the intro movie. If I use the keyboard to start a new game / load a game, then the resulting menus also were invisible. I tried with WGF autodetect and manually put in resolutions; without bezel correction as well, same result. Using your plugin and the latest WSF r386 5760x1080 (6040 x 1080 corrected), GTX 580 x 2 in SLI, Nvidia 3D (tried to disable that too, no difference).

In terms of the HUD alignment -- with my setup I do notice that it is just SLIGHTLY to the left of centre (there is probably ~10 pixel gap in the bar on the right) but it doesn't interfere with anything in any way.... Thanks so much helifax, I tried to play this game on one monitor and felt like I was downgrading big time, it works great in surround now!! -- DS

Joined: 08 Dec 2011, 19:54 Posts: 41	Thank you Helifax, donating right after posting this. The fix is working with the newest tesv.exe , no problem there. I am using 5760 by 1080, three screens. The following changes were needed to make objects in skyui look right when making selections.: itemcard.align = right itemcard.xOffset = 19.5 itemcard.yOffset = -8 itemicon.xOffset = 28 itemicon.yOffset = -8 itemicon.scale = 0.4 But I still have an issue once the fix is enabled. The data in the middle screen, when showing any menu items, spells, etc is bout 7% too much to the right, spilling unto the third screen. I am using skyui, the latest version. When I shoot arrows and spells they are also off by the same ammount so I miss all the time. The fixer reads: screen resolution 1920 screen offset 1966 adaptive resolution 5760 Thank you for your work.

You can adjust that with the itemIcon.Scale and x/y offsets in SkyUI.cfg (play around with what works for you). The only issue I'm having with mine is reading tomes/scrolls the text is just barely too far to the left (see screenshot)... everything else works nicely tho! (didn't try char create) Attached files

Joined: 20 Nov 2011, 21:29 Posts: 19	Here is a new one for me. I start Skyrim and can load and play with the big menus. But when I start the latest fix (at beth menu) then after the load screen for entering the latest save game, it exits to desktop every time. When I load a save game without the fix running it loads as normal and plays ok (other than the bad menus) This has never happened to me before. I have booted, and no change. I will keep poking around and let you know what I find. Update in case anyone else has this problem - I did a file check and it found a few files to replace. After that things worked much better.

Joined: 08 Dec 2011, 19:54 Posts: 41	This may help some people. The fix was trying to use bezel correction when I am not using bezel correction. I unchecked Automatically Detect Resolution and made the bezel corrected numbers same as the uncorrected and everything is perfect now. So Helifax, some glitch with bezel correction. If it helps, I am using Nvidia surround, 5760 by 1080, 2 590 cards in quad sli mode. Which by the way, made Skyrim 0 (zero) faster than a single 590. I guess you cannot make up for lazy code with more video power. You can with more cpu power, but chips seem to be stuck around 3.2 and 3.4 . Thanks again, Helifax. TRusselo: If you play around with the following settings in skyui_cfg.txt you can fix that perfect. The scale setting will make the item smaller if you lower it. Assuming newest version of skyui. Older versions used skyui.cfg instead. itemcard.align = right itemcard.xOffset = 19.5 itemcard.yOffset = -8 itemicon.xOffset = 28 itemicon.yOffset = -8 itemicon.scale = 0.4

I'm running "A Quality Word Map" mod but I've tried with and without and the offset remains. The markers do however maintain their relative position when panning an zooming so it seems like there should be an alignment adjustment I could make here on my end but I don't know where that might be.

Joined: 27 Jan 2012, 18:13 Posts: 7	Thanks Helifax! I'm happy to see you have released a new fix. The only thing is, that the HUD and menu is an inch or two too far left. Everything is fine except for this. Unfortunately it makes the game unplayable for me due to the menu being directly under my bezel and I can't see it at all. It's just that everything needs to come over to the right an inch or two. Hopefully it's an easy fix. Maybe it's due to bezel correction? I am running bezel corrected at 8070x1600. Your previous fix did not have this issue for me, everything was centered. One other small thing is that the when exiting the map, the HUD is displayed on the left screen. A quick tab into the menu and back fixes it though. Not a big deal, just thought I'd point it out. Thanks for all your effort!

Even though it was auto detecting the correct resolution, when I unchecked auto detect and put it in manually, it worked great. Now the only issue is the locations being slightly off of their placement on the map like Exile mentioned a couple of posts above this one. It's certainly better than having to toggle the fix on/off to use the map (or leave it distorted, like I used to because I was lazy). Also, it's nice to see that the loading screens are in much better shape. Thanks Helifax!

Hi all, I am glad that the fix is working for you all! If you are having problems with the bezel correction disable the fix and put in the Corrected Resolution your manual resolution. If this still doesnt fix it try to play with this number a little (increase the number with 50 pixels) Ex: Normal 5040 x 1050 Corrected: 5230 x1050 . This you can adjust to 5260 for example. It will move the hud more to the right. For some reason the game engine needs an extra something to the HUD push. This wasn't before and that's why I the older fixed it was working perfect (the centering). I know about the character selection fov and will probably fix it sometimes in the future, but since is one time in the game takes little priority..,. For the map markers on my setup I could not see any problems... What I do is basically revert to the original state of the map so any offsets that appear are very strange... It is possible that some mod to alter this? I am running the game as pretty as Vanilla as I can. :)) Best Regards _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

I may not even be putting this post at the end :) First thanks to Hayden and Helifax for putting all this work into these fixes. Those of us who can't code really appreciate it! I'm running a Radeon 6950 setup. I'm wondering what the best resolution would be to run the game in. I keep hearing 5040x1050 referred to as "normal". What do you mean by normal? I've been getting it to run at 5760x1080. Would it look better at 5040x1050? If so, is there a way to get my monitors to think they can do that? I'm running 3 ASUS VE278Q. I don't think they offer that resolution. Unless i'm mistaken. Thanks for your help!!

dopefish	Post subject: I noticed that the HUD Posted: 05 Mar 2012, 14:06
Insiders Joined: 14 Apr 2007, 02:13 Posts: 1514	I noticed that the HUD centering is slightly to the left in other games when using Eyefinity, as well. I never did pinpoint the issue since all of the resolution values and bezel offsets lined up correctly. I'll revisit this when I get a chance and see what I can come up with. Regarding not making the source code public, I keep it closed because I see no reason at the moment to make it public. It won't really help anyone. If someone is interested in developing plugins or making fixes for games, just get a hold of me and I'll work with you. Another reason is that Widescreen Fixer itself, and the library APIs, are constantly changing. As games come out and new methods are needed or I come up with better ways of doing things the API will be updated and changed to meet the needs. Making the source public will cause people to create plugins for specific APIs that break during the next update. Just with helifax alone we ran into the API problem. With the source closed this makes it necessary for people to get in contact with me and we can merge plugins, update plugins, add new plugins, etc. and they get maintained more easily that way. _________________ Widescreen Fixer - https://www.widescreenfixer.org/ Widescreen Fixer Twitter - https://twitter.com/widescreenfixer Personal Twitter - https://twitter.com/davidrudie

Joined: 30 Jan 2012, 20:16 Posts: 13	Here is my email and response from Bethesda: Email to Besthesda: ([email protected]) I am sure you must be aware of this, but there is a forum with more than 311,000 views on this issue with Skyrim: http://widescreengamingforum.com/forum/forums/gaming/requestdiscuss-game-solutions/18156/skyrim-multi-monitor-user-interface-fix-disc. The issue is that the menu is not sizing correctly when playing at large resolutions. I have 3 22” LCDs and use a resolution of 5270 x 1050 (with bezel correction). The game looks great but the user interface of the game does not size and cuts off on the bottom. I cannot read books, navigate dialog, or browse inventory. Will Bethesda please fix this? There are two people who have come up with fixes on the widescreen gaming forum, Hayden and Helifax, and Hayden’s fix worked perfectly until Bethesda updated the game to 1.4. I find it difficult to believe that what could be the best game of all time does not have an official fix for this from Bethesda and that the only people who can fix it are doing it for free, accepting only paypal donations. This game has made millions of dollars. Please, I implore you, find a way to get this fixed. Response from Bethesda: Hi Henry, We do not support multiple monitor set up. Best regards, Justin I.

You paid for the game to work on one screen not for 3. If you want it to work on 3 then you have to support the modding comunnity and Helifax, Dopefish and Hayden are doing just that. Even if you gave Bethesda thousands of dollars they wouldn't support it. :doh

Joined: 01 Jun 2010, 17:31 Posts: 55	I have just started to play through Skyrim after having it sit around since I bought it on day 1. Helifax's latest fix for Skyrim via Widescreen Fixer is working pretty well. I think I will set Skyrim to NOT UPDATE automatically, play through it once and then uninstall it. I would like to say thanks to Helifax, Hayden and Dopefish for all their efforts at making multi-monitor gaming worthwhile where the developers can't be bothered for the most part. The gaming industry is starting to get really depressing for me as it continues to transition from entertainment medium to cash generator machine. The user support for multi-monitor gaming is the only reason I haven't ditched it and just gone with a big single display.

Joined: 02 Dec 2011, 07:54 Posts: 11	Hey helifax thanks for all uve done so far!!! I figured out my issue with the HUD moving after viewing books and maps. It'll switch to the left screen or sometimes the right. I missed what you wrote about this only happening with the 360 controller which I am using. Easy fix though just open menu again. I can live with this otherwise it's perfect!! Thanks a bunch! Only other weird thing is during loading screens sometimes the level meter and wording on the right screen won't show up?? And the item/character will be really blown up. But when I toggle around the joysticks it's fine and shows up correctly? Any ideas? Minor issue but just was wondering if it's an easy setting fix? I'm running 5040x1050? Thanks again!!

Your complaints never go anywhere.

Your complaints are so insignificant to the developers that I am sure they ordered the front lines to never bring them forward to them, instead just delete them. When you go to buy a $60,000 car and it does not come in convertible. What do you do? Do you buy it AND THEN complain to the company that the roof does not decline? lol If the product you plan to buy does not do what you want it to do then simply do not buy it

Now work 100% (Scrolls too). Minor bug found when using Xbox0360 controller: After viewing a book the hud moves to the left. It can be repositioned by pressing Start button twice. For Mouse+ Keyboard this doesn't happen...weird. - Map is functional 100% no toggles are required. Map is now proper scaled and markers work correctly. Minor bug is when clicking on a marker: The menu appears on the right monitor but is 100% workable. - Correct Aspect Ratio and full usage of skill menu. Skills are now properly displayed. Hud is properly displayed. Minor bug: Navigation with the mouse in the skill tree is wrong. I recommend the keyboard. Once a skill is selected to invest in the menu appears and the selection can be done with the mouse. - Items are automatically scaled and centered based on your resolution.[b] - [b]Hud is centered. Sometimes when reverting from MAP the onscreen elements might appear on the left monitor. Hit ESC 2 times to correct this. - Updated to work with the latest WSF build (big thanks to dopefish) - Support for monitors starting from 2- 1001 monitors with nVidia Surround & Eyefinity Autodetection (thanks to WideScreen Fixer and dopefish for this) - Text and icons in Loading Screens are now correctly displayed. Minor bug is found only when pressing Continue from Main Menu... - Looking into an automatic way to start the fix once the game was found. - The game required alot of modifications to make it work "natively". All modifications are made in the games engine. Best Regards Hi all!!! I have finished tweaking it.. Please read the above description if you run into trouble. At the moment it doesn't feature automatic activation of the fix (Still need to talk with dopefish and see how this is possible). So enable the fix WHEN the Bathesda INTRO MOVIE is playing....NOT Sooner, NOT later or you will run into unexpected behavior which is not correct. - Grab WideScreen Fixer from http://www.widescreenfixer.org/ - Download the plugin from this post and put it in WSF's "Plugins" folder. - Select the plugin and hit the GEAR icon. - Autodection should work However if you have problems set your resolution manually. - Click on SAVE Settings [b] - Launch game and wait for the "Bathesda movie" to appear. - Enable the fix. Default key is numpad *. Please test it and let me know how it works for you:) Best Regards, Helifax Plugin is back online:) This one should work :) I also updated it and the bezels shouldnt be a problem now. Again, [b]VERY IMPORTANT - Enable the FIX during the Bathesda INTRO movie - IF the main menu is not correctly scaled REDO until it works. Otherwise elements will not be correctly placed. Best Regard, Helifax PS: If the fix doesn't work you are doing something wrong so retry. Hello all, again!!! Made some various improvements to the fix: Fix will now enable itself automatically after 4 seconds once the TESV.exe was launched into execution - So no more manually enabling it.. Please test this and let me know if it works (Main menu should be perfectly scaled) Fixed map markers offset Improvement in the text placement in books and scrolls Now the text should be placed correctly and all the text should be visible. The rest is the same:) as above! Best Regards, Helifax Attached files Plugin.The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim.rar (11.5 KB) _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Joined: 27 Jan 2012, 18:13 Posts: 7	Thanks again Helifax. This new plugin is the best yet. The auto enabling feature works perfectly for me. The only thing I notice now is that the text in books is slightly offset to the right. They are perfectly readable and it really takes nothing away, just thought I'd point it out. The map is now perfect and the locations are in the correct places. If the books and map offset are tied together somehow, it's much better this way. If the aren't independent, and either the books or map have to be offset, I'd much rather see it stay as it is now. The map locations are much more important than the book text being slightly off. Thanks!

I run at the same resolution you do. Phrayzur, If you are sure that something isn't right about how your display looks it could also be your FOV (Field of View) settings. I am at work right now and I can't remember if WSF has a setting for FOV. I know HaYDeN's last fix had a modifyable setting for FOV when you ran it but I'm not sure about WSF. Anyway if you want to mess with your field of view. below is how you can manually modify it in the skyrim.ini file. If you think the your game looks fine as is and were just wondering if you would get a better look with the other resolution I wouldn't mess with this. I think my FOV is set to 90 but I can't remember for sure. The default Field of View is fairly narrow — between 60 and 75 — which works well for TVs, since you’re sitting further away from the screen, but PC gamers are more accustomed to higher FOVs. Compare the default FOV to a FOV of 90. 1. Go to your My Documents -> My Games -> Skyrim -> skyrim 2. Create a backup of the skyrim.ini file 3. Open the file, then scroll down to where it says [General] 4. At the bottom of this section, add fdefaultfov=XX (where XX is the FOV value you want to change to) 5.Save, exit, and play Also, if you just think the game graphics could look better you are right and there are plenty of graphics mods on Skyrim Nexus that you can download to make this game look a whole lot better.

You just need to close it and re-open it. For the compass thing, that is a known issue described in the DR also and 1st post of the fix:) _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Joined: 16 Nov 2011, 05:18 Posts: 58	I noticed that the HUD centering is slightly to the left in other games when using Eyefinity, as well. I never did pinpoint the issue since all of the resolution values and bezel offsets lined up correctly. I'll revisit this when I get a chance and see what I can come up with. Regarding not making the source code public, I keep it closed because I see no reason at the moment to make it public. It won't really help anyone. If someone is interested in developing plugins or making fixes for games, just get a hold of me and I'll work with you. Another reason is that Widescreen Fixer itself, and the library APIs, are constantly changing. As games come out and new methods are needed or I come up with better ways of doing things the API will be updated and changed to meet the needs. Making the source public will cause people to create plugins for specific APIs that break during the next update. Just with helifax alone we ran into the API problem. With the source closed this makes it necessary for people to get in contact with me and we can merge plugins, update plugins, add new plugins, etc. and they get maintained more easily that way. I agree with this logic and I don't think any of the other developers here are asking for this so much as they would just like to understand what is being fixed. I think the concern here is that a lot of people plan on playing this game for a long time like Oblivion and people are worried that if Helifax and HaYDeN dissapear that no one else knows what to do to keep these fixes going. I think people just want the source to figure this part out. I am learning but I am still a long way of even being able to write a plug in for your WSF.

So far I haven't had any issues with mouse or lag and if it was working fine before Helifax's fix I'm not sure what would be causing it now. You could try these two fixes for mouse lag problems and see if they help. Disabling mouse smoothing/acceleration Mouse acceleration can be more frustrating than helpful, and there’s no in-game option to disable it. 1. Go to your Steam Directory -> steamapps -> common -> skyrim -> Skyrim 2. Create a backup of the SkyrimPrefs.ini file 3. Open the file, then scroll down to where it says [Controls] and find bMouseAcceleration=1 4. Change to bMouseAcceleration=0 5.Save, exit, and play Fixing the vsync “laggy mouse” problem If the mouse acceleration fix didn’t solve all your sluggish mouse issues, try this one. Also be sure to disable all gamepad support. 1. Go to your Steam Directory -> steamapps -> common -> skyrim -> Skyrim 2. Create a backup of the SkyrimPrefs.ini file 3. Open the file, then scroll down to where it says [Display] 4. Add to the bottom of the section iPresentInterval=0 5. Save, exit, and play

The data is swapped in and out as needed, otherwise you'd see TESV occupying the same amount of memory as the data folder which is way more then the 32bit executable can map. You'll also notice that when you're running around a small indoors area the game's system and vram usage is lower then say wandering the wilderness and the amounts will grow/shrink as you change zones. If the game had a genuine 64bit executable it could probably throw the entire thing into system ram (provided you have enough room) but currently it has to pick and choose what's relevant to the scenes you're in due to the 4.3GB limit of a 32bit LAA enabled executable. Meanwhile, a hacky work-around to that if you're looking to take advantage of a lot of system ram is to make a ramdisk, throw the game's folder in there and launch from there. ;) Hey Bump, thanks for the reply. Yeah I was wondering about the app itself. I was just confused as to some of the things that were going on when I was loading the file into memory. For example in CE some of the executables aren't fully loaded and I was wondering if the TESTV executable was functioning the same way. I have so much to learn when it comes to windows development and how the Kernel itself handles memory. Anyway this was the result of getting sidetracked. I don't think I'm coming up with any fixes anytime soon but now I've done enough to want to keep learing about how to go about it. lol

Joined: 01 Jun 2010, 17:31 Posts: 55	The fix is working great for me, takes care of all the issues I have with the game on a multi-mon setup. I am seeing a weird issue that I think is separate from the fix or anything and it has to do with really bad screen clipping or bleeding on the sides of the screen when I am up against walls or other objects. The background seems to clip right through the foreground objects/geometry as can be seen in the screenshot below. I remember seeing this same thing in Deus Ex: Human Revolution as well, it was especially bad when crealing through ducts. This effect occurs on the left or the right of the screen depending on which wall I am hugging and if I get right next to an object like a sign or something it gets clipped through as well. If I move just a bit away from the wall it goes away. Can anyone clue me in as to what causes this and what I could do to get rid of it?

The app or the app and all of its data? The data is swapped in and out as needed, otherwise you'd see TESV occupying the same amount of memory as the data folder which is way more then the 32bit executable can map. You'll also notice that when you're running around a small indoors area the game's system and vram usage is lower then say wandering the wilderness and the amounts will grow/shrink as you change zones. If the game had a genuine 64bit executable it could probably throw the entire thing into system ram (provided you have enough room) but currently it has to pick and choose what's relevant to the scenes you're in due to the 4.3GB limit of a 32bit LAA enabled executable. Meanwhile, a hacky work-around to that if you're looking to take advantage of a lot of system ram is to make a ramdisk, throw the game's folder in there and launch from there. ;) Hey Bump, thanks for the reply. Yeah I was wondering about the app itself. I was just confused as to some of the things that were going on when I was loading the file into memory. For example in CE some of the executables aren't fully loaded and I was wondering if the TESTV executable was functioning the same way. I have so much to learn when it comes to windows development and how the Kernel itself handles memory. Anyway this was the result of getting sidetracked. I don't think I'm coming up with any fixes anytime soon but now I've done enough to want to keep learing about how to go about it. lol TESV is fully loaded... now in CT you have a small 2 options: Writable and Executable. Not all of the memory regions are marked as writable (some are Read-Only). The same for Executable. You should enable in CT the correct option when you do a search to see all the memory regions that are allocated by a program. Be advised that the same memory locations can also be used by other applications (like nvidia/amd drivers for example) ;)) Hope this sheds some light;)) Best Regards, Helifax _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

I think the concern here is that a lot of people plan on playing this game for a long time like Oblivion and people are worried that if Helifax and HaYDeN dissapear that no one else knows what to do to keep these fixes going. I think people just want the source to figure this part out. I am learning but I am still a long way of even being able to write a plug in for your WSF. I have always said that if I ever abandon Widescreen Fixer or no longer have time to maintain it then I will open-source it and make it available to everyone. I'm sure the other plugin authors wouldn't mind either. Can anyone clue me in as to what causes this and what I could do to get rid of it? There's really not much that can be done about this. It affects almost all games and it just has to do with the camera clipping into the walls because the view is so wide. _________________ Widescreen Fixer - https://www.widescreenfixer.org/ Widescreen Fixer Twitter - https://twitter.com/widescreenfixer Personal Twitter - https://twitter.com/davidrudie

Joined: 16 Nov 2011, 05:18 Posts: 58	The fix is working great for me, takes care of all the issues I have with the game on a multi-mon setup. I am seeing a weird issue that I think is separate from the fix or anything and it has to do with really bad screen clipping or bleeding on the sides of the screen when I am up against walls or other objects. The background seems to clip right through the foreground objects/geometry as can be seen in the screenshot below. I remember seeing this same thing in Deus Ex: Human Revolution as well, it was especially bad when crealing through ducts. This effect occurs on the left or the right of the screen depending on which wall I am hugging and if I get right next to an object like a sign or something it gets clipped through as well. If I move just a bit away from the wall it goes away. Can anyone clue me in as to what causes this and what I could do to get rid of it? Ryukan, There isn't a fix for this problem, but I'm curious as to what FOV you are running at? I noticed I had it as bad as your pictures are showing it for a while and it was driving me crazy. I did a few things that definitely cut it down some so that it wasn't so distracting but I can't remember them all although my post about it was somewhere earlier in this thread. I think the biggest thing that helped though was dropping but FOV out of the 100's and into the 90's.

The menus were so zoomed in they couldn't be read, among other issues. HaYDeN, helifax, dopefish, Thank You for your time and support. Job very well done. ;)

You paid for the game to work on one screen not for 3. If you want it to work on 3 then you have to support the modding comunnity and Helifax, Dopefish and Hayden are doing just that. Even if you gave Bethesda thousands of dollars they wouldn't support it. :doh this might be the worse attitude ive ever heard of ever in my life. its like a getting a chefs hair in your soup and not complaining and just eating it anyway. if everyone who was on this forum all complained directly to them, while they might not jump to support it, they might consider it in the futore for upcoming titles. video game companies like to make money and if everyone says they can't deal with non-multi support maybe they will realize that means thousands of people will be unhappy, thats enough to put a dent in their income. sure complaining doesnt give instant results, and in the end may do nothing anyway, but its ALWAYS WORTH DOING. Thats what customer service / support exist for, to hear complaints and help. even if they do nothing im sure they at least log the complaint to some extent. Oh my gosh...Amen, AMEN!! Some people simply don't like to go against the grain. If we are told to shut-up, sit in the corner and eat our porridge, like a good little consumer, then what good are our voices? I could careless what the product is made for (1 Monitor)...It's flippin Bethesda sitting over there with the Game of Year in their laps?? Act appropriate and address the problem or at least listen to the consumers. ....It blows my mind that <1% of WSGamers get this argument? If it wasn't for Hayden & Helifax, for coming to the rescue, then 3/4 of those <1% (I guarantee) would be singing a different tune. Shame.

Joined: 31 Dec 2011, 10:32 Posts: 22	Hi Helifax, Wondering if you can help me understand why it's not working. Previously Haydens fix worked on the old versions - that is if I untick automatic and put in the resolution of my center screen 2560 which is all I had to do. So my setup, the reason it's different to others is: 1. I use SoftTH, my SoftTH resolution is 5160x1600 (real res is 4960x1600, but added some pixels for bezels). 2. I use PLP, 1200x1600, 2560x1600, 1200x1600 3. Skyrim script extender to launch my game. The settings I've tried: 1. Automatic - activates but menu is on right side still, offset 86 (all below are with 3 display count because 1 does nothing) 2. Many many combinations of manual settings, they usually end up with the menu off screen and I can't see it. Any ideas? Does anyone else have it working with PLP? Also anyone know if Hayden is still planning to update his fixer?

Im having a problem when return back to desktop after playing Skyrim though, where the top 1/3 portion of open windows seems to freeze. Open windows need to be maximised and restored after playing in order to fix. No big deal, but thought I would pass on feedback. Im using 3x30, 7680x1600, no bezel correction, widscreen fixer 3.1 r394 with skyrim plugin from that version (latest). Cheers.

Joined: 04 Mar 2012, 20:30 Posts: 8	Hi Helifax, With the latest version the map and other issues are fixed, thanks so much for your continued work. A few very minor issues I am noticing -- now the 3d models / item icons in the inventory / loot view seem to be compressed. This happens whether I am running SkyUI or not. (i.e. aspect ratio is off they appear stretched horizontally, compressed vertically). Also the mouse respond differently (i.e. with more lag / slower movement) in the inventory screen. It behaves normally in the map, and the game menu that comes up when you hit (ESC). This is new -- the version you posted a few days ago did not have these issues. Fairly minor and I've tweaked my fMouseCursorSpeed to have it usable in both views, but if there's anything that could be done your widescreen fix would be perfect! Thanks again!

For you the fix enables a bit to fast;)) That is because I enable the fix based on a time-out (which is bad practice) but I couldn't find something based on which to enable the fix (like a unique value).

Since no one else seems to be having any issues I'm kinda convinced that the problem is probably caused by a mod. Unfortunately, I installed my first bunch of mods manually so it will take a clean install or some time to clean these all out to verify that. All the mods that I installed under Nexus Mod Manager have been disabled so it's probably an older mod I installed manually that is causing the problem. If i get time I'll go for a clean install and check it out and let people know in case they are having the same issue at some point. Now that Mass Effect 3 is released I'll be distracted for a bit from Skyrim anyway. :) Thanks for working your Mass Effect fixes as well Helifax as I still have to finish ME2 tonight.

However, unfortunately I won't be able to round up the $1K for a quicker Skyrim VI release though. lol EDIT: Oh dang, I bet I was dumb and started running r395.

Now that Mass Effect 3 is released I'll be distracted for a bit from Skyrim anyway. :) Thanks for working your Mass Effect fixes as well Helifax as I still have to finish ME2 tonight. When I get paid I'll send some love your way. However, unfortunately I won't be able to round up the $1K for a quicker Skyrim VI relase though. lol EDIT: Oh dang, I bet I was dumb and started running r395. I'll have to check that when I get home. Dopefish released a new PLUGIN FOR SKYRIM. There you can configure the time for the automatic kick in. Try to increase it, or decrease it and see if that make a difference;)) I know...timeouts sux but was the only way I could make it automatically kick in;)) You can find it on the Official Site of WideScreen Fixer! Hope this helps!! Best Regards Ok Helifax, I figured out what's going on with r394 and r395 on my machine. It seems that if the fix enables too soon the result is the game running on 3 screens independently. I timed how long it takes my game to run when I hit play on the Skyrim startup screen. It's close to 15 seconds before my movie comes up from the time WSF enables the fix. So In WSF I moved the slider to 7 seconds in r395. Then I tested hitting play on the skyrim menu and watied about 7 seconds before I started up WSF and the plugin. Once I did this, the fix kicked in after the movie started and everythign ran fine. I'm guessing the reason my game takes so long to load is I'm running and loading a lot of mods. So that's what's going on and why r386 with the manual enable runs fine on my machine and these don't. I am fine using the r386 but if anyone else runs into this at least we'll know what's going on. Regards, Exo

Any help? I am assuming you are downloading WSF version r395 from www.widescreenfixer.org? So when you unpack it to a directory and run widescreen fixer.exe under task manager it shows up under processes but not an application? Mine worked fine when I ran it and got the GUI but I did get a conflict with message that adobe flashplayer had a conflict and is shutting down soon thereafter (I have no idea if it was related). Maybe kill this process if you use adobe flash player. Other than that I'm not sure. You might try deleting it and re-downloading it just to make sure you didnt' get a corrupt download.

This solution is only meant to be temporary until either of us can figure out a solid way of enabling it. Yeah I would have thought 7 seconds would have been enough for most programs also. I think it's just all the mods I'm loading. I think I have like 50 mods. lol Is there a way to just put in a field where someone can enter their own number in seconds? I can see the problem though. In cases like mine where it takes a long time to load people are going to have to time their own startup times from the time the plugin starts counting. Maybe a toggle where someone can disable the auto-start and use manual? It seems like 4 or 5 seconds is working for most people.

Joined: 31 Dec 2011, 10:32 Posts: 22	I got it kind of working with my PLP setup, although the menus are way too small. Would it be possible to specify center screen width for the menus like Haydens did? Total width / 3 is not ideal as my sides are 1200 wide and my center is 2560 wide. Very very weird thing is, it will only work the first time I run Skyrim. Any time after that it doesn't work and it puts the menu off screen. If I want to quit out of Skyrim I have to reboot to get the fixer working again. Has anyone heard is Hayden going to enable his fixer for the new version?

Joined: 06 Aug 2004, 09:33 Posts: 84	First off BIG Mahlo to Hayden, Helifax and dopefish The Gods of widescreen gamers around the world... pizzas and beers are on me guys. I've been using HaYDeN's Eyefinity/Surround App Fix v0.91 with Skyrim v1.3.10.0. Simply because of the very easy interface. That said I have come across things that you may or may not be aware of. - During Race creation the cursor does not allow the head to rotate around for better viewing. - Some mods (just a few) have issues with the app activated. Umm..yup I think that's it so far. I want to try Helifax and dopefish's fix but I've been enjoying the game so much that I keep forgetting. At the same time I'm testing out so many mods it's so easy to test and quit and test again. Only down side is that newer mods are coming out that requires Skyrim v1.4 or newer. So I may have to try Helifax and dopefish's fix after all. These are my specs and game setting I'm running. If you guys see anything that you thing I need to adjust please let me know and I'll give it a try. Rig Specs: MB: Asus POG Rampage II Extreme, X58 Express CPU: Intel i7 920 D0 @ 4.2GHz, 1.22v RAM: Corsair Dominator GT CMG6GX3M3A2000C8 (12GB) GPU: XFX ATI Radeon HD 6990, 4GB, DDR5 Optical Drive: Pioneer BDC-2202B Blu-Ray HD Primary: Western Digital VelciRaptor 600GB 10000 RPM HD Storage: Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB (x4) PSU: PC Power & Cooling, SILENCER 910 Monitors: Samsung 245T 24" (x3) Driver Data: Mobo: Full Update ASUS ROG Drivers GPU: Catalyst 12.1 / Catalyst Profile 12.2 CAP 1 Game Data: HaYDeN's Eyefinity/Surround App Fix v0.91 (NOTE: The app is a WIP and this latest fix works with Skyrim v1.3.10.0. Waiting for his next update.) Skyrim v1.3.10.0 (NOTE: This is due to the Widescreen Fix app limitation.) Nexus Mod Manager v0.14.2 (NOTE: My Skyrim game is heavily modded with almost everything to make the game look beautiful and I'm still trying other mods.) My Skyrim Options Settings Antialiasing: 8 Samples - 1920x1200 Single Screen Off (best performance) - 5760x1200 Triple Screen Eyefinity (NOTE: I'm still testing some settings but oddly enough I don't see much of a change graphically from Off or with any Samples selected.) Anisotropic Filtering: NOTE: For me this is the biggest performance hit of all the settings 8 Samples - 1920x1200 Single Screen Off (best performance) - 5760x1200 Triple Screen Eyefinity (NOTE: Same notation as Antialiasing setting but come with a hefty performance hit.)

Despite all the added mods the game with the settings above runs pretty smooth. 45-100+ fps. avg. 60 fps - 1920x1200 (I have actually seen Fraps hit over 300+ fps in some in-game spots, very cool) 20- 80+ fps. avg. 35-45 fps - 5760x1200 (funny even when I dip to 20 fps I have not experienced too much choppiness it seems to feel very smooth) I've been reading in other forums that a lot of guys are trying mods then the game crashes and a lot of them keep saying "my computer can't handle this". Will let me tell you that may not always be the case. Even with my setup I'll come across a mod that just messes everything up. So for those of you who thinks that it may be their hardware it may just be the mod. I could basically try anything on this and once in a while one mod would crash me. Easy fix....NEXT MOD!!! Anyways just my $0.02 and I hope this info helps. Check out my ladies...watch out don't get them mad. They'll Dragon Shout you a new one.

Joined: 01 Jun 2010, 17:31 Posts: 55	I am finally enjoying Skyrim and I plan on playing it through after having it sit around since November 11th. The Helifax/Dopefish fix is working great for me. Just a couple issues I am seeing that I am not sure if there is a workaround for or not. 1) Whenever I use the map or read a book/notes/journal/etc and exit the map or book when I go return to the game the cursor and HUD/interface elements move to the left most monitor. If I go into the game menu and back out to the game screen everthing resets itself to the center monitor. But this gets a bit annoying because often using the map and reading a lot of books and stuff means I am doing this a lot. Is there any fix fot this? 2) The windows for confirming fast travel/placing a map marker are zoomed in a good deal. Not game breaking because the confirmation choices still show up but the window is so zoome in that all I can see is the confirmation options, the rest of the text above is cut off.

It uses a hotkey to toggle the HUD (in my case) from center screen to the left screen and back again. If you HUD keeps switching screen this will allow you to do it with a hotkey. Might be solution for you. Link: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=3222

Joined: 11 Nov 2009, 21:10 Posts: 7	helifax's solution is working great for me. I only had to do a couple of things. Edit your prefs file for the screen size of course. Upgrade to latest catalyst drivers 12.3 (I was on 12.1 i think and the fix wasn't happy with that). There is a known problem with the 12.3 drivers in the release notes about texture corruption with anti-aliasing turned on. Said this would be fixed with the next release of catalyst drivers. This happened to me but went away when I turned AA off. One note: when bezel correction is on the messages like "XX Gold added" are "under" the bezel. Minor issue. Running a 5870 eyefinity 6 @ 6048x1200. Thanks so much helifax.

Haven't played Skyrim in weeks, but came back here curious to see if Hayden had ever published an update. If he hasn't by now, he never will. I see Halifax has made some significant improvements to his fix! Very cool. I tried to get Halifax's solution to work for me just after the 1.4 Skyrim update came out, but couldn't get it to work. I decided to simply move on. My experience with Skyrim has only reinforced my rule: If it doesn't support multi monitors out of the box, I'm not buying it. Made a mistake buying Skyrim; won't do it again. Wow, the new movie Wrath of the Titans looks pretty amazing. Might have to go see it on IMAX 3d!

Joined: 19 Oct 2010, 14:50 Posts: 71	The latest WidescreenFixer fix is working great out of the box on my setup (6048x1080 bezel corrected). All I had to do was uncheck the autodetect resolution box under the widescreenfixer config icon. The latest fix applies itself when the game starts - the only thing that I have to do is make sure my skyrim ini files (both skyrim.ini and skyrimprefs.ini) are set to read only and my resolution is specified in SkyrimPrefs.ini - iSize H=1080 iSize W=6048. I'm launching the game through a skse (for skyUI) shortcut and the steam overlay, achievements, etc. are all working. With the latest fix Skyrim really couldn't be easier to run in eyefinity (aside from official support of course). I have noticed that without using the "64Hz bug fix" mod, the game is very choppy in crossfire/eyefinity. That mod really smooths it out a lot. The only issues that I've had with the latest fix are as follows: - After using the map or reading a book I have to double tap Tab to move the UI from the left monitor back to center - Item pictures are too large and on the right monitor when using SkyUI (but SkyUI works great with this fix!)

Same here, I am using the Helifx/Dopefish fix using Widescreen Fixer to play Skyrim on my multi-mon setup and loving it. Finally playing through Skyrim after having it since release and I am really getting into it; I have pretty much quit playing SWTOR right now because I am having such a good time playing Skyrim. Thanks Helifax and Dopefish for all your hard work! As far as the enlarged item pictures with SkyUI, you can change that. On page 257 of this thread, post # 2563 contains info about how to change a few SkyUI ini settings to fix the large items issue. I am running 6040x180 rez and my settings for this fix (in Skyrim>data>interface>skyui_cfg) are: itemicon.xOffset = 20 itemicon.yOffset = -8 itemicon.scale = 0.5 With those settings the item pictures are perfect size and centered fine. Hope this helps.

Once Halifax incorporated the Widescreen Fixer into his work, (or vice-versa), the fix, especially in later releases, is effortless, and flawless. Halifax is the man, now, and he's around!

Agreed, I'll be honest I got this setup because I figured "hey, developers should be able to code their games correctly for widescreen... right?" but of course that bit me in the butt. Admittedly it looks GREAT when it's working but it's just a lot of upkeep when the developer doesn't do their job in the first place. Funny enough I had a 42 inch HDTV as a monitor before I swapped to triple monitor... sometimes I wish I had it back.... other times I love that I switched... Here's to hoping patch 1.5 takes less time to fix than this last one...

What is annoying me is that I set Skyrim to not auto update through Steam but it keeps reverting back to auto=-update. I absolutely don't want it to auto-update but if it keeps overriding my decision to set it to not auto-update seriously going to get pissed. I'm currently playing the heck out of Skyrim and I'm not going to bother with any more patches unless I encounter something that needs me to patch.

Joined: 16 Mar 2012, 00:47 Posts: 5	First post here. I finally took the plunge and registered, mainly to express my gratitude. THANK YOU Hayden, I for one am glad you are taking your time. I played co-op Borderlands for a long time with my friend but when I went Eyefinity it was very hard to me. I see Mass Effect on your list - could the patch be applied to Mass Effect 2, as well? Looking forward to your release. Also, thanks to helifax for a GREAT plugin and dopefish for the program that has really helped me to enjoy Skyrim. With all the great mods out, I am having a lot of fun with the game. Anyone tried out the new 1.5 patch with the ranged killcams? All I can say is - it's about time! Finally, some recommendations. I recently switched to an AMD 6990 + 6970 combo. This has TREMENDOUSLY improved my performance with Skyrim. I am running all settings on Ultra (AA off) with the FXAA graphics mods and usually get around 50fps outdoors and way over that indoors. I switched from a 5870 X 2 setup, which did not perform well. So, anyone looking for an upgrade to their AMD 5000 series system, consider the AMD 6990. You can find cards on eBay in great condition. Also consider the Mad Catz amBX Cyborg gaming lights. In a dark gaming environment, these can greatly boost the atmosphere and mood of the games you're playing.

Joined: 03 Sep 2007, 19:13 Posts: 49	Hey folks, I am having trouble applying Widescreen Fixer fixes to either Mass Effect 3 or to Skyrim, and figure there must be something I'm doing wrong. I am using the SoftTH approach because I am using PLP monitors: 20" at 1200x1600, 30" at 2560x1600, and 20" at 1200x1600. I am able to get the game to span across all three monitors, but in both cases the in-game menus and vertical sizing continues to be incorrect, with the menus too zoomed in, spanning off of both bottom and top edges of the screen. Note that I am using Nexus Mod Manager in Skyrim, and both Script Dragon and Skyrim Script Extender, to run various mods. Here's what I have done: 1) In the respective game folder (Steamapps>Common>Skyrim, and Origin Games>Mass Effect 3>Binaries>Win32), I have pasted the config.SoftTHconfig and d3d9.dll files. I used the SoftTh 2.x configuration tool to determine a total resolution of 5238x1600 to compensate for bezels. Here then is my config.SoftTHconfig file: [spoiler][main] renderResolution=5238x1600 nonlocalFormat=RGB16D keepComposition=0 smoothing=1 debugD3D=0 zClear=0 vsync=1 tripleBuffer=0 screenshotFormat=jpg dllPathD3D9=auto dllPathDXGI=auto dllPathD3D11=auto [overrides] forceResolution=0 antialiasing=0 processAffinity=1 FOVForceHorizontal=0 FOVForceVertical=0 [debug] compatibleIB=0 compatibleTex=0 compatibleVB=0 [head_primary] ; borderA=0 ; borderL=139 sourceRect=1339,0,2560,1600 screenMode=2560x1600 [head_1] ; borderA=0 ; borderL=0 devID=1 sourceRect=0,0,1200,1600 destRect=0,0,1200,1600 transportResolution=1200x1600 transportMethod=local noSync=0 fpsLimit=0 [head_2] ; borderA=0 ; borderL=139 devID=2 sourceRect=4038,0,1200,1600 destRect=0,0,1200,1600 transportResolution=1200x1600 transportMethod=local noSync=0 fpsLimit=0[/spoiler] 2) In the respective My Games config file for each game, I have typed in my desired resolution (in Skyrim: SkyrimPrefs.ini: isizeH=1600 and isizeW=5238 and in Bioware>Mass Effect 3>BIOGame>Config>GamerSettings.ini: ResX=5238 ResY=1600). Note that I have also tried changing the horizontal from 5238 to 4960. 3) I downloaded and installed the latest Widescreen Fixer, as well as the latest Mass Effect 3 and Skyrim plugin. I have tried using "Automatically Detect Resolution" checked. When I do this, the detected resolution is 4960x1600. When unchecking it, I changed the Bezel-Corrected resolution to 5238 1600. I am unsure what to change Uncorrected Resolution to. It currently reads 14880 1600. I am not sure if this might be part of the problem. I have left FOV at 90. 4) I load Mass Effect 3 (or Skyrim) and press "Q" (my selected Hotkey to enable Widescreen Fixer) at the intro screen. In the Widescreen Fixer menu there is a "Yes" next to both Game Running: and Fix Enabled: (I determined this by at one point removing both the config.SoftTHconfig and d3d9.dll files from either game directory so that the games ran on only my center monitor. Sorry for what might be a lengthy post here, but I wanted to outline the steps I'm following here, in case I'm doing anything wrong. I am running AMD 6970 MSI cards, but have disable Eyefinity b/c it doesn't support PLP mixed resolutions. So, to recap: None of the Widescreen Fixer features are working for me in either Mass Effect 3 or in Skyrim. Running either game with Widescreen Fixer on or off results in the same thing: unusable in-game menus. Can anyone help me out? Thanks. Thanks.

Your fix has been the only one to ever work properly for me and others on Picture-landscape-portrait setups because it allows me to type in the resolution of my middle landscape monitor and override the automatic divide/3, i.e. 2560. It was perfect. Looking forward to it mate!

I'm really sick of the autoupdate especially when I set the game to not autoupdate and it resets back to autoupdate EVERY DAMN TIME! Also I hvae tried starting Steam with my comp disconnected from the net to get Steam to start in Offline mode to avoid patching and it won't do that. Why even have an option for offline mode when it won't start in offline mode. Sorry for the rant, Steam just annoys the hell outta me sometimes. Now to wait (barely) patiently for the Widescreen Fixer/Skyrim fix to get updated for the update.

Your fix has been the only one to ever work properly for me and others on Picture-landscape-portrait setups because it allows me to type in the resolution of my middle landscape monitor and override the automatic divide/3, i.e. 2560. It was perfect. Looking forward to it mate! Yes let me 2nd this! I really do appreciate all of Helifax's work too but the fix done by Hayden just worked better. I'll be glad when Hayden gets his fix out!

I don't know if they have their own fix, if they are using a fix from WSGF or if they are testing with a Bethesda fix. But it is encouraging to see nvidia "testing" this as they are likely to have a louder voice at Bethesda. Hopefully that translates into a proper fix in the near future.

Bethesda then updates the game. By the way, we should be grateful and happy, they are fixing bugs and adding cool features like the new kill views and animations. We see the game has updated, we save the new exe file in another folder named with the new version, and replace it with the previous version. Takes all of 20 seconds.

Non-existant lighting effects, aweful light processing. Yes their are mods to fix it, but shouldnt that be the job of who we paid? Bethseda has made an unreal amount of money off what was a great engine, but that was a long time ago, and as much as I love Skyrim, they need to get off this ancient technology. _________________ Exmortis Darkenblade aka "Scott" These days you can find me: Vanguard - Exmortis/Falcron/Treager/Goraag/Scrotal/Phailse - Telon Server Asus P8Z68 Deluxe Gen3/Gskill 4x4 DDR3-1600cl7/i7-2600K/7970 Lightning/24x27x24 eyefinity/Corsair K90/Corsair AX850/Revo3 240/ocz Vertex 3 240/WD VelociRapter 600/Corsair 600T/Logitech 5450Z 5.1 The priest asked "Who are you?"

I don't mind the patches at all, but I do mind being forced to auto-update it one way or the other before I want to and thus not be able to even play it. Also, I can do without the kill cams...actually lessens the immersion for me. Have they included an option to disable kill cams, because I can't find it.

They officially announced they will not and never will support 3 screens, basically Bethesda is saying if you want to use it find a modder to add it or go fuck yourself. Plain and simple I have a 7970 with a massive stable overclock and it destroys all 680s. Those things are stuck with gimicky turbo oc I highly doubt they can come close to the 7970 power overclocks they are famous for. 680is the highend. Nvidia could not make anything better. GK110 does not work and will be used in 2013 for the 780. The 8970 will be a monster with all the oc headroom in the 7970 to harness they will really crank out the performance on that thing, probably come out before the end of the year. I will upgrade to the 780 when it comes out though. 7970 mass oc is amazing enough for me now. I hate putting my fav game on hold and can't wait for the plugin. Thanks Helifax

Joined: 23 Mar 2012, 20:19 Posts: 2	For those that were looking at the GTX 680 for Surround gaming, it's one heck of a card. I already got a chance to get my hands on one, though I would wait till May-ish when the non-reference cards hit the market, as they will likely offer 4GB GDDR5 memory. A good choice if you like really high resolutions and high AA. Also, there is no native fix for Skyrim yet, though without the fix for the latest version, the game runs quite smooth at 5760x1080 at Ultra High Settings and everything maxed out, except for AA, which is set to 4X. But hopefully we can see a fix from Helifax soon. Just wanted to keep you guys updated on how the GTX 680 performs. Can't wait to put my hands on two 4GB cards in SLI.

Thanks Helifax The reason it was brought up again is because Nvidia showed Skyrim being played in Surround in a demo video for the GTX 680. If you read his post and clicked the link you'd have seen what we are talking about. This has nothing to do with AMD. We simply wanted to know what they were doing to get Surround to run in Skyrim. They don't show the Skyrim menu or map in the video, so I can't see if they are playing with a fix of some kind or not. If Nvidia is showing Skyrim running in Surround in a demo video, it gives a small glimmer of hope that their might be an official solution on the way. It would obviously work for AMD and Nvidia cards alike. The menus are being scaled based on resolution. Now, I don't think that is going to happen, but it doesn't hurt to ask right? EDIT: By the way, this is a thread about playing Skyrim in multi-monitor resolutions. Why come here to spout your BS putting down the new Nvidia card? You must be feeling bad about your purchase, so you have to talk bad about the competition to make yourself feel better. There are plenty of other places to do that.

I don't know about you guys, but this is unacceptable for a single-player game and I plan to write them a stern letter and (attempt to!) not buy anything through them again. It's really too bad because they are really a perfect platform, if they just weren't this bone-headed on issues like this. I guess "The pirated version is better" applies here again... *sigh* Hello, A staff member has replied to your question: Hello *real name redacted*, Thank you for contacting Steam Support. The option to disable automatic updates does not disable the requirement for Steam to install the latest updates before launching your game. This option will only allow you to delay the update until you next choose to launch the game. There are no options for running Steam games without all necessary updates.

And useless. :-) I finished Skyrim for a while, but when I spent my three or four weeks playing I kept Steam in offline mode for the weeks when it had a skyrim beta brewing. Kind of over the top, but since that was the only purpose for Steam for those few days, ti worked well. I got no achievements, but I don't care about that much. I was able to continue playing until completion while others had the 1.4 patch inflicted upon them. Just a thought I wanted to throw out to my multi monitor brothers..

Joined: 23 Feb 2012, 10:49 Posts: 29	geez guys you are really flogging a dead horse here. If they won't do it for eyefinity why would you think they would for surround? They officially announced they will not and never will support 3 screens, basically Bethesda is saying if you want to use it find a modder to add it or go fuck yourself. Plain and simple I have a 7970 with a massive stable overclock and it destroys all 680s. Those things are stuck with gimicky turbo oc I highly doubt they can come close to the 7970 power overclocks they are famous for. 680is the highend. Nvidia could not make anything better. GK110 does not work and will be used in 2013 for the 780. The 8970 will be a monster with all the oc headroom in the 7970 to harness they will really crank out the performance on that thing, probably come out before the end of the year. I will upgrade to the 780 when it comes out though. 7970 mass oc is amazing enough for me now. I hate putting my fav game on hold and can't wait for the plugin. Thanks Helifax Right on cue, Onthemour...I haven't decided whether Bethesda's continued ignorance and teenage silent treatment (to this absolutely ridiculous problem) is more annoying than your repeated comments, that weigh absolutely nothing, in a God Damn 'Widescreen Gaming Forum" ....Instead of posting monotonous garbage about Flogging Dead Horses, turn that monotony into 'postings' we can all appreciate-->postings that repeatedly and genuinely thank Helifax for fixing Bethesda's obvious (Quick-Fix) Game-of-the-Year-Fuck-up.... Example: "Helifax...I would like to personally thank and praise you for the time & effort you have put forth in correcting our beloved Skyrim game. I can honestly say that there are no true words to describe the level of appreciation and gratitude for what you have given (and continue) to give us here at WSGFs. You are a citizen of Honor, Grace and Prestige--I fall to one knee in hopes that you will accept my meager bowing of worship. Helifax, I would also like for you to forgive my Special little friend, Onthemour...For he is a confused lad and we accept him for what he is. The truth is, we have more sympathy & love for the Dead Horse than Onthemour. Again, thank you for all that you've done, Helifax--Two thumbs up!" If what is true and you truly plan to say "No More", Onthemour...than Holla-Fuckin-Looya. ~MaxSharp (TTKPM)--The True Keyboard Punching Monkey

The helifax version will let me run the widescreen fixer, load the plug and recognise skyrim is running, however it only loads on a single screen (as in, the whole game disables my two side screens) and I can't even see any menus (had to guess from memory what the selections were to load/quit the game). Any idea what's going on here?

Any idea what's going on here? I have this too sometimes. Try to play around with the timescale in widescreen-fixer. i.e. put it from 4 sec to 5 sec or 6 sec. at least just change it slightly. for me it worked than all the time. I have the same problem, how exactly do you select the resolution for widscreen in skyrims settings? It only shows the standard one screen resolution never the widescreen. in the launcher, you shouldnt see any resolution. just keep it blank as it is and dont pick any resolution there. just put yr resolution into the "skyrimpref.ini", make it un-writable afterwards and keep yr fingers from the launcher resolution options.

Joined: 30 Nov 2008, 07:03 Posts: 96	Before I ask what I'm going to ask, I'd like to say that even though I doubt I'll be utilizing your fix, I really appreciate all the prompt attention and labor by Helifax and others to get this working. Skyrim is in the 1.5 range now. Hayden's last solution is in the 1.3 range. I've tried Helifax's solution, and it doesn't work for me. I might could do a whole bunch to get it to work, but the very tiny amount of free time I have is going to have to be spent playing and not fixing. That's why so many prefer the "one click and it just works" option, Apple style, regardless of how much any and all efforts are appreciated. It looks like as of now, my only sure fire option is what has been proven to work before, i.e- to roll back to an earlier version and use one of Hayden's earlier fixes. This is unfortunate because my computer will lose internet access because of the steam forced update, but I'm ok with that. However, the only way I've seen so far to roll back takes me all the way to version 1. The way to accomplish this is to replace certain files (TESV.exe, etc) with older version files, and unplug the internet so as to not allow steam to update. I'd like to know if there's a way to roll back to the 1.3 range to use Hayden's latest fix. I heard you can use Win 7's previous version rollback feature, but I tried it and it didn't work for me. Replacing the files was the only thing with which I've been successful, but again, it was the release version and I haven't seen any place to get those files that would take me to the 1.3 range. Anyone know where I can get those files? How to roll back to that version? When / if hayden is going to release an updated fix? I contributed quite a bit more than what I paid for the actual game to the coder appreciation fund, and I really appreciate any help.

In that case, where steam is forcing updates, even if you clearly said that you dont want any auto-update, thats a reasonable action. I mean, you have a legal copy, everybody is paid and you can play the game in that version which is working for you and NOT in that version steam wants you to play it.

I spent a lot of time trying to get your early version fix to work and couldn't. I know your new fix is integrated into the widescreen fixer, has been fully automated in many ways, is also "one button" now, etc., but once again it is not working when I try it. I know exactly how to make Haydens fix work. It's working now. I just need the files to play with the latest version. It would take about 30 seconds with those files, or a working rollback method. If there's no way to roll it back to the latest version, I'm ok enough with the old one.

With a detailed description of the problem you are having trying to get it to work there are plenty of people here who seem willing to help figure out what could be causing your problem.

Personally I like Helifax's fix with Widescreen fixer. It works pretty well although there are a couple of minor bugs. Plus it's in Widescreen fixer so it's just one app for me to update rather than having lots of fixes everywhere. Am I missing something though by using this rather than Hayden's fix? _________________ i7 3770k, P8Z77v Pro, 16gb Ram,2x Samsung 840 SSD RAID 0 + 4.5tb storage, 7970 Oc'd + 7950 in crossfire, 3x SP2309w monitors + 1 acer monitor, Asus D2X Xonar, Creative T40 Speakers plus satalite speakers + audio transducer

I don't think you are missing anything. All that really matters is a playable fix anyway right? HaYDeN hasn't come out with a fix since 1.3.10 because he abondoned his old fix and has been working on a new fix from the ground up which he believes will work well for many games including skyrim once it's released. So unless you were going to roll back your .exe file to an old version it's kind of a moot point until HaYDeN releases his next fix.

Can't wait, keep up the good work :D This isn't a thread on ME3 so I won't get carried away but why didn't you use Helifax's plugin with wide screen fixer? It took me all of 30 seconds to download and run and it runs widescreen for ME3 flawlessly on my machine. I can't even tell it wasn't designed to run on 3 screens with his fix. Just curious but could you not get it to work? Your right this isnt a mass effect thread so lets end it here, but i wasn't referring to the 3rd one (although i did say series). i was referring to ME1 and mainly 2, which i cant seem to find a fix for. Just beat it thought. going onto ME3 an i know helifax has a fix for it. Enough about mass effect though, i'm just being a positive supporter for Hayden's tool, whenever it may be released.

Whether using Helifax's or Haydens fix, the files should be available for download in these situations. I can't believe they are not. I can believe, from their history, that EVIL CRAP COMPANIES like Bethesda and STEAM (as in "you got burned") don't offer the patches individually and act like gangsters with their forced platform integration, but I can't believe no private sources have saved the files to help out in any other version than 1.0.

However, I would think it might be a good idea for someone somewhere to go ahead and save the three necessary files for this version so that the next crap update that breaks the game doesn't slow anyone's playing time down. I'm currently playing in 1.0 with the internet unplugged, or I would myself. It would be great if this site could link to those files.

I'm trying to help someone with their computer and they wanted to avoid the update from steam when we bring it back online and I had seen this mentioned before but wasn't sure if it would actually work. I wonder if you ran on an account without administrative privileges to write to a directory if this might work. Wouldn't this keep steam from writing the new exe? I never thought about using an approach like that so I haven't thought it through. Anyway, I will just tell him to keep his machine unplugged from the internet until he's ready to deal with the updates.

I'm no expert, but it seems to me that Beth would be writing their fix into the source code rather than using a memory hack like we are using so it doesn't seem like this would be an issue for Beth if they really wanted to support multi-monitors.

Really, this game was an xbox port, so it naturally seems little attention is being to anything pc. Profit margins, you know. It's a shame Oblivion worked so well and this one is this way. I guessing it's because it's just a crappy xbox port, but I'm also guessing that it wouldn't have taken much from the dev's to throw a little consideration into the coding for our issues. Could be wrong, though. Coders: would it have taken much from the dev's and coders to consider this when they wrote it, or is the engine somehow made in such a way that high res options are just a crazy consideration to leave to outside fixers?

Very interesting... cool, thanks! I pretty much understand in a "civilian" sort of way. Interesting to me that none of the other changes or mods suffer from this same condition though, since many change the game in pretty drastic ways. I'm guessing they're not changes to the source code then?

Only place I find anything close to old packages of the install are from pirate sites.. go figure. I do think it's time however that we work on a more permanent solution. With the creation kit out, I know we can start modifying certain data files to fix quite a bit of the issues helifax and hayden have to work with. It would be much easier to from a sustainability stand point to create a mod or series of mods that work for us in the multi-monitor community. The solution would have to be 2 prong. 1. The engine for 3d renderings. This would be a great place to work with the creation kit on. For instance right now i'm testing out modifications to the load screens with scaling and placements so that our multi-monitor load screens will always work. 2. The interface. Mods like Skyui are a great platform and something we should really try to learn a lot from to develop our own adaptation of the mod for multi-mon.

Main thing is that the injections the Helifax fix works on attaches to the TESV.exe, so as long as it matches, the fix should work. Cracked version might not, as they modified and recompiled the original exe.

Hitting enter loaded the game automatically anyhow but at first non of the menus were displaying so I logged off windows and logged back in and tried it again. Read the instructions again and noted it said to hit '*' in game to load WSF. Not sure if that did anything because initial continue, load game menu was missing but this time after blindly loading my last game the menus are working! Is there anything I did wrong? Thanks

Joined: 30 Nov 2008, 07:03 Posts: 96	Helifax definitely gets the award for promptness. Awesome. I went ahead and tried the new update and new fix, and it still doesn't work for me. Even adjusted the delay for when the fix is injected, but no go. But it's no biggie... the files for a 1.3 revert were posted in this thread so I'm using Hayden's 1.3 fix until he releases the new one. For info's sake, I did confirm (for my setup) that it wasn't my imagination... for me, the new fix (even though it doesn't work for me) and new versions ( 1.5 etc. even without any fix running) seem to make my gameplay choppy. Low FPS. Seems strange to me, since the newest card drivers and game updates are supposed to have such better performance optimizations. When I'm running 1.3 it's smooth as glass. Hope hayden's new fix isn't choppy too...

I'd just like a huge thanks for the work put into making Skyrim work on eyefinity, However with the latest update Posted just 2-3 posts before mine I don't seem to have any menu's when I get into Skyrim, game will load and I can see that the loader has done it's job (ish) However I just cannot see any of the menu options, Continue, Load, New game, Options etc is completely missing. I deleted the previous Skyrim plugin and put this one in and I can't seem to get it to work, is there something I'm missing? Thanks in advanced.

Joined: 31 Mar 2012, 19:43 Posts: 5	Hey. I recently picked up Skyrim and wanted to get it to work, I got the new updated file that you uploaded. I got the settings set to automatically detect, which should be 5760x1080, got the Delay set to 15. When I start up Skyrim, it fits all screens, I can see the menu to the right in the right screen, however - when the 15 secs passes, the picture is blown up a bit, I cant move my mouse into the left screen anymore, it stops in the left side of the center screen. my Right screen turns off, I can still move into it and hear that I hover over the menues.. any advice, is my resolution set worng or something ? UPDATE * Seems to work "ok" - if I manage to load up my game before the fix kicks in

If I use a previous version of Widescreen Fixer (before the sweeping changes to the code he mentioned in the updates), everything works perfectly. Now I'm just waiting for Widescreen Fixer to hopefully support the latest patch 1.5.26 and we'll all be in business. But until then, no problems running 1.5.24.

I am using eyefinity 5760x1080 no bezel correction. And I've tried setting up the plugin manually Yeah, that's pretty much the issue. Against what I said earlier, out of curiosity I went ahead and wasted a bunch of time trying to get this one to work. Still doesn't. I've made sure the versions matched up, tried more delay on fix start, tried manual setup, etc. and it just doesn't work for me. Also I'm not an expert, but from everything I've read, TH2GO behaves no differently with programs or patches than direct nvidia solutions. Totally my fault... I should have just stuck with the one I knew worked for me, and waited for an updated fix version. The REAL KICKER, is that I plugged my box back into the internet to do all this, and steam acted like it was updating the game. Then every time I tried to launch the game, it said it was still in 1.3! I restarted steam, restarted my computer, several other things, and it was still 1.3. So when you don't want it to update and TELL IT SPECIFICALLY NOT TO, IT FORCES AN UPDATE, but when YOU WANT IT to update IT DOESN"T UPDATE!!!!!! DIE STEAM! Seriously, does anyone know if ANYONE exists who actually LIKES steam? DIE!!!!!

For some reason load times seem to have increased and load screens are way off but I don't really care about that. One thing though is FOV for first person character model. Mine seems really large, whereas Hayden's fix had a feature to adjust that separately. I would choose "70" for the hands. I don't see any option for that in this fix, but otherwise it seems awesome so far.

I use Skyrim Script Extender and Script Dragon. I want to play across my 30" center monitor and my two 20" side monitors (1200x1600, 2560x1600, 1200x1600), for a total res of 5238x1600 (bezel corrected resolution of 4960x1600). A few questions: 1) Will the widescreen tweaks described in this thread work with a modded game launched/managed via Nexus Mod Manager? 2) When I launch Skyrim, I have all the intro videos and splash screens disabled. Do I need to reenable them, similar to how Widescreen Fixer must be enabled during the intro splash screens in Mass Effect 3? 3) In Widescreen Fixer, should I uncheck "Automatically Detect Resolution", make "Display Count": 3, "Uncorrected Resolution:" 5238 1600, and "Bezel-Corrected Resolution:" 4960 1600 4) Leave "Seconds to Delay Fix From Starting" at its default? 5) What value should I type into the Skyrimprefs.ini for horizontal resolution (iSize W=)--- 4960 or 5238? Also, do I need to change the permission on the Skyrimprefs.ini to read only? 6) I assume that I need to have both the config.SoftTHconfig and d3d9.dll files in the main Skyrim directory? Any other things I need to do to optimize this? Thanks.

Perhaps there others here using mixed (PLP) resolutions, and if so, how have they gotten the in-game menus to scale properly? There aren't many forums devoted to surround gaming, so this seems like a very good place to ask these questions.

I also like the social aspect of being able to friend family, and easily play games with my brother 300mi away. And then there's the lovely aspect of travelling, and the fact that I can simply log into steam on my brother's desktop, and get access to all of my games (and most of my custom key-mapping) without issue, and without having to bring my tower and triple monitor setup. I don't blame Steam or Valve for the pain and anguish most users of this forum have had to deal with. That blame lies squarely on the shoulders of Bethesda who make a great game, but don't give a shit about the 'hardcore' gamers with expansive and expensive systems and instead about the money making masses and their consoles. I do agree that if you mark a game as 'do not update' that it should abide by those wishes though.

Yes, I use nexus mod manager to launch my game all the time. Just start widescreen fixer and leave it in the background. I've set my mod manager to run SKSE on startup instead of the normal launcher. 2. No. You can leave these off. They were interesting for like the first .5 seconds I saw them... turning them off saves alot of time especially when tweaking mods. 3. Yes, you are going to need to probably uncheck this. Currently the Helifax fix corrects geometry on a mathematical basis of Resolution divided by number of screens. Based on your different resolution monitors you might have to play around with number of screens to a fractional amount like 2.5. (Helifax does it take float or just integers in that field?) 4. This is just the time delay before the fix kicks in. I have mine set to like 15 seconds. Just gives time for the game to load and get to the menu before it pops on. 5. Set the iSizeW to your bezel corrected resolution you want to use. So, 5238. Don't worry about read only. Skyrim hasn't been as picky or as bothersome as Fallout NV about that file and the read only setting. 6. Not sure about the SoftTHconfig file, but if you use something like customized shader mods that use d3d9.dll, then yes add that in there to the skyrim folder. As far as optimization goes. There are a ton of posts out there with some minor tweaks here and there to improve performance and stability. I don't think anyone has put together a comprehensive list yet though. Most of them are also heavily dependent on your machines performance to begin with. For instance: http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=354301

The forced updates, no company published "user implemented" patches or reverts available, no freedom, the crappy user interface, the switching of preferences without warning; all Steam. Not to mention all the EULA details that, contrary to the practicality of "disk bought" games, you don't own what you buy, they can yank it without refund, etc. The following IS from Cracked, but is no less true... What many people don't realize about buying digital files online is that you aren't really buying the file; you're just buying a license to use it. Such as video games. The wording from the Steam download services says that paying full price for a game grants ... "... a limited, terminable, non-exclusive license and right to use the Software for your personal use in accordance with this Agreement and the Subscription Terms. The Software is licensed, not sold. Your license confers no title or ownership in the Software." Steam So you aren't buying Rage. You're buying a Rage license. That wording is standard -- you find the same in competing download services like EA Origin. If you are playing a game that requires access to the service and they decide to ban you from using it, your ability to play that game is gone and they don't have to offer a refund (or as they put it, "No refund will be granted, no Entitlements will be credited to you or converted to cash or other forms of reimbursement, and you will have no further access to your Account or Entitlements associated with your Account or the particular EA Service"). Not to mention that, though I may be wrong, I always seem to see a lot of postings from people with problems getting Steam games to work, not being compatible or as easy to implement certain mods, etc. as the normal install versions of game software. And the social issue... I could be wrong with that as well, but I don't see any great difference or advantage that doesn't already exist on every other platform on the market. Than again, I'm not too social, so there you go! :-)

Than again, I'm not too social, so there you go! :-) This is getting off topic, so this is my last post on the subject, don't feel like I'm ignoring your valid arguments, but what Cracked so validly pointed out is that you don't own the games, you merely own a license for the game. However, just because you own a disk, doesn't mean that you own the game (from a legal standpoint). Almost all big name software coming from companies with any kind of legal team have the same clause in their own EULAs. Microsoft, Apple, Avast, Adobe, etc... all only sell (or give, ie Avast) licenses for their software. It all comes down to what we, as consumers, are willing to tolerate in order to use said software. Windows phones home every so often to verify that you have a valid license, as does Adobe, and most games you install from a disk. Have to put in a key and you are connected to the internet? Even if internet access isn't required, you can almost certainly bet that there will be a license validation check at some point. Sure, you have a disk with your game's code, but if you'd like, you can make one with Steam games (Steam->Backup and Restore Games). Sadly, the current state of the software industry as a whole isn't kind enough to grant free and unlimited use of its products to any and all... or even a few, and some. Personally, I think Steam is the best, least evil, option available today. That may change, but I feel like they provide the most features I can and do make use of while only requiring things that I'm willing to agree to. 24/7 internet access? Sure. Personal account? Fine. Only allow me to be logged into one computer at a time? I'm the only one using my account, so that's cool with me. Do I wish it could do things better? Of course, but I'd rather deal with Steam than have to repeat the awful experience Games for Windows recently put me through. You're free to disagree (in fact, I encourage debates on such topics), and I'm hopeful that things will change, but I'd rather play games than argue over which game provider/DRM method is the shittiest. And also, this is a Thread about Skyrim, not Steam's annoyances.

I tried starting from the launcher and changing the resolutions and delay, but now it just crashes to desktop the moment I try to load the game from main menu. I click continue and then bam! Desktop. Without Fix it runs and loads fine w/ all the god-awful menu bugs that Bethesda still refuses to correct. I've downgraded skyrim and the fix to 1.4.21.0.4 because those are the last versions that worked.

Joined: 09 Dec 2011, 19:08 Posts: 18	I had been using Skyrim 1.3 and hayden's fix. Finally got around to trying the Widescreen Fixer so I could get caught up to Skyrim 1.5. Using 3 monitors 6048x1200 bezel-corrected. Has worked pretty well, most of the issues are cosmetic (game launch and fast travel load screen images are distorted, on map the box to select Yes or No or Place Marker to fast travel is humongous but still works) or have a work around (after map or a book HUD is on the left screen but I quickly jump to inventory and back and that fixes it). The HUD moving to the left screen would be the fix that would be most helpful, but it's very playable as is. Beyond that, the two biggest things on my wish list would be: * When reading a book, the book background is too far to the left and for any full length lines the last 2 letters on both pages are cut off. Still easy enough to read though. * Being able to change the mouse sensitivity when on the map would be wonderful. I'm using an Xbox controller on the PC, and small cursor movements when on the map page are really tough. I tried editing SkyrimPrefs.ini and the fMouseCursorSpeed setting, but it didn't seem to change cursor speed on the map. Really appreciate the work both hayden and helifax have put into all of this. Thanks to both of you, and anyone else who has helped them out.

Is Hayden going to update it or has support been discontinued indefinitely? I haven't gotten Helifax's newer fix to work yet, but I see a lot of listed improvements so I'm going to keep trying different things. I hope I don't have to disable every mod cuz it's not like I'm using an FXAA injector or anything like that, just texture mods. EDIT: Okay, I managed to get 1.5.24.0.5 to work with the fix. I had some weird issues at first, but I restarted and now it's working as described.

Example would be if you want to get rid of Aella's or Faendal's default bow that they are using over one you give them, I can't click on them and do a removeitem command as it doesn't seem to be targeting them despite my having clicked on them. I'm wondering if this is something caused by running with multiple monitors. Has anyone else noticed it? I see plenty of comments on UESP of people using the old method and it working.

Joined: 12 Nov 2011, 15:03 Posts: 16	Okay, I thought it was a fluke at first but now it's a recurring issue. I am using 1.5.24.0.5 (non-steam) version of Skyrim and helifax's fix for said version. When I first start up the computer and start the game with the fix it works just as described without issue. BUT, when I close the game & the fix and start them up again later I get issues. The HUD is on the far right monitor as soon as the game loads, it will go onto the center display if I enter and exit the map, but it's still pushed to the right by 115 pixels. I've tried manual settings, but it just keeps doing this until I restart the computer. At first, I didn't think the fix was terminating correctly, but I made sure the process was not in task manager before starting it again and then starting Skyrim which still gives me the issue. By the way, the fix does not conflict with a RivaTuner overlay when it is functioning normally, it just moves it to the left edge of the center monitor instead of the left edge of the left monitor where it usually is. So I've kept my RivaTuner overlay in the screenshots to show the offset better as it SHOULD be close to the left edge of the center or left monitor at any given time when the fix is behaving normally. When Skyrim is first started: After map is opened and closed: It's like everything is behaving as if normal, but it's just shoved over to the right by one monitor. The issue where you say HUD winds up on the left monitor when exiting the map in this case is putting it in the center instead because it's off to the right by one monitor. EDIT: Okay, I figured it out. The fix is not starting fast enough. I set the delay to 5 seconds and it stopped doing it. Still posting this in case anyone else encounters this.

I have tried every one of the different second delaying options, and a large combination of automatic to manual resolution settings. I am running at 5760x1080 and 6048x1080 with bezel compensation. Is there another trick to get my menus to be at an adequate size so i can actually read the text? Or am I doing something wrong on the whole process.

NightWatch	Post subject: No luck with Helifax Fix Posted: 23 Apr 2012, 19:33
Joined: 07 Dec 2011, 20:31 Posts: 16	Hi all, I'm returning to playing Skyrim after a break. I have used Skyrim in one screen for testing while toying with the CK but not actually played the game for a while. As I am returning to play the game, I thought I'd check if Hayden Fix had been updated as I had been using that previously. Seeing that the Hayden fix is not up to date, I tried the Helifax Fix. Sadly, I cannot get that fix to work properly. At first, I tried just using the Widescreen Fixer with the Helifax plugin but all that happened was CTD each time I launched Skyrim - no menu screen and CTD was occurring on the end of the delay timer (I timed it). So, after a restart, I checked my TESV version and found it to be 1.5.26.0. I swapped this for my (backup) TESV 1.5.24.0 in the hope that this would be compatible with the plugin. My hopes turned out to be for nought as I get various results in Skyrim with Widescreen Fixer using the Helifax Plugin. I have no mods other than the two HiRess packs from Bethesda in operation and have tried many variations of the Widescreen fixer / Helifax fix but nothing works satisfactorily. The various results include (Game Starts each attemp); Sometimes - No start menu - cannot proceed Sometimes - Menu looks stretched vertically - can proceed Sometimes - Get from menu to game via 'load screen' Sometimes - Cannot get into game / CTD Sometimes - Get to game and menus are great but reticle and message boxes (open door etc) is on left monitor - not centre And a recurring instance that can happen at anytime during loading or exiting game - I loose all audio on PC! I have tried many variations of the settings on the Widescreen Fixer (all with Skyrim as chosen game) and have tried with Skyrim settings on default, Ultra and lowered. And I restart the PC before each new attempt. Still no luck. :( I do not particularly want to revert to a TESV version compatible with the Hayden fix (though I do have back ups) as I would much prefer to use the current or closest to current version of the game. I'm kind of at a loss as to what to do except play in one screen and that is kind of a downer. :( So, suggest away! I'm open to ideas if you guys have any that may help. :) (Basic system stats in sig.)

Joined: 07 Dec 2011, 20:31 Posts: 16	Helifax solution still not working. After many attempts to get the solution working, I wrote of the issue here. I guess it was just down to timing that a few minutes after posting, Widescreen Fixer updated - including latest Helifax plugin. The update did nothing to help and seemed to bring up a new issue - in game menus appear in game and are gone in a flash! (Example - hit 'Esc' and menu flashes on then immediately off screen). So, it's back to one screen. :( Edit: Another thing, sometimes when I close the Widescreen fixer then try to relaunch there is a message saying another version of fixer is running - I go to task manager and find the the 'process' is still very much active. The question comes to mind: Is the issue with the plugin or with the Widescreen Fixer? Discuss!

I just discovered a work around that works for me. If I press Esc like to do a save and then press Esc again then my HUD and compass is then imediatly moved back to its proper place on my center monitor.

I mean everything is scaled correctly and the map is spot on and everything is perfectly playable. Just not sure if I'm having some kind of minor glitch coz I coulda sworn Haydens early fixes had everything coming up on the centre screen. In any case, no big deal, and thanks for the work Hayden.

Joined: 11 Nov 2011, 17:43 Posts: 55	I've been lurking in the shadows of this thread for most of the winter months..... waiting. I replaced my 2Gb HD5870 with two HD6870s in CF and put the 5870 in work PC (eyefinity also, and I'll get nothing done tomorrow at work if when WSFixer makes Skyrim playable @ 6048x1080) It's 5AM and I just checked this thread again - I check daily - and I can't express how happy and grateful I am for the Widescreen Fixer. Thank You both Helifax and Hayden. Thank You Helifax for not giving up and all of your valuable input and work on this particular issue- you are a trooper. Thank You Hayden for the same and I cannot express how much respect I have for you BOTH. I haven't played in months - since Hayden's fix (0.9) stopped working. I just refused to play it 'normal' because once I went widescreen, 'normal' resolution just isn't gratifying. I can't wait to try it, and even if there are issues my respect and gratitude for ALL contributors has, is, and will remain the same. :cheers _________________

You're going to have to set the game's resolution, widescreen fixer doesn't do that for you. All widescreen fixer does is make your menus usable and not all stretched out. This is the way I do it, it's allot simpler then messing with the game .ini 1 ) Launch Skyrim 2 ) Click "Options" on the launcher 3 ) Make sure Aspect Ration is set to Standard (4:3 or 5:4) 4 ) Click the "Default" button (or Ultra, High, Medium or Low if you know your setup will run with games at those settings in eyefinity) 5 ) The Resolution field should go BLANK after you hit the button 6 ) Change any additional Graphics Settings 7 ) Click OK 8 ) Open Flawless Widescreen or Widescreen fixer 9 ) Select the fix and leave it running 10 ) Launch the Game * ) If you're using Flawless Widescreen everything should be all good to go but if you're using Widescreen Fixer you're going to have to configure the fixer before launching Skyrim. Just make sure you follow the instructions found here if you plan on using Widescreen Fixer. I recommend just grabbing Flawless widescreen. I hope that helps!

Now Skyrim has a glitch where the crosshairs are misaligned i.e.- arrows / blows go to the right of where the crosshairs show. Happening in 2D or 3D, bezel corrected or not. Anyone have a fix? EDIT: Also just now noticed the map is screwed up as well. Totally unusable. No icons, towns, etc. just typography. Using Widescreen Fixer, Skyrim version 1.5.26.0.5, above resolution.

Can you give me more info on what exactly you do that you see no icons on the map? I expect you activate the fix too soon. Try to increase the activation time to something more than 5 seconds like 10-15 depending on how modded your game is. Hope this helps you. Best Regards, Helifax _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Hayden, yes I am using a non-stock .exe, and that cant change unfortunately. :) Looks like my only hope is Halifax... though that's not looking too good either. The two issues i'm having are some random transparent pixels (first image) and the map displaying no icons. Other than that it works great. And i've tried playing with the patch application time, anything from 2 sec to 15 sec. The game launches pretty quick, so anything longer than like 5 the patch isn't applied when i'm at the main menu.

This only started happening when I started running the new resolution after switching to the new monitors. Again, I'm dealing with the misaligned crosshairs and the "no icons" map issue. Everything else seems to be fine, and I could almost deal with the misaligned crosshairs, but the map issue is pretty major.

If this is the way...then I can see what mod affects my fix, but I need a list of possible mods interfering with my mod:) From the error I saw a couple of posts back..it seems that there is a problem in WideScreen fixer when it comes to detect the type of hardware...I will try and let Dopefish know about this.

I have SKYUI BTW and it work flawless. **Update** OK disabled better map with roads same behavior, but I did notice something. IF I manualy set the map offset, it never changes the behavior, map is unsuable its off about half a screen width. But if I start game, task out use "detect now" it works, until I save off and restart game. same issue. I am running latest steam version with nexus mod manager and a decent list of mods with BOSS.

Joined: 28 May 2012, 17:34 Posts: 1	Hey guys, noob to the forum here, but not a noob to PC gaming/custom PCs/Surround Gaming. I've been playing around with Skyrim and I've got both Flawless Widescreen and Widescreen Fixer downloaded and have been trying them both out. Here's what I've found, and I want to be sure this is consistent with everyone else and not just something I'm doing incorrectly. Flawless Widescreen: Everything works great except I have to disable the fix before opening the map or the map will be really screwed up Widescreen Fixer: Everything works great except the mouse sensitivity is very high when in any of the menus (inventory, journal, load screen, etc.) I have only found the one issue with each fix. Everything else works wonderfully. Is this consistent with what everyone else has found? Btw, I just downloaded both fixes this weekend so all of the versions should be the most up to date and my Skyrim copy is a Steam copy and should be fully up to date as well.

I am just setting up my Surround stuff and don't know if the issues I'm having are because it's 1.6 and the plugin is for 1.5 or something I'm doing wrong - the opening menu and character creation are not really readable but the game works (though everything in the two side monitors is stretched) - this is on 5760x1200 (5949x1200 corrected) with 2x670s.

I don't have a lot of time and i finally got it all working yesterday i just get past the intro and went to bed thinking ill finally get to play today and then steam updated it and the fix doesn't work. I learned my lesson and shut off updates for this game on STEAM. I really, really appreciate Helifax's work but how long does it take to get new updates (I have no experience with this) would it be worthwhile to try rollback my game?

It will be part of WSF later on:) The plugin should work like before (with the little annoyances and fluff :)) ) Now that this is covered...

Joined: 08 Dec 2011, 19:54 Posts: 41	By now I am sure you know, but the release is officially golden, not beta. Looking forward to horse combat on three screens! Nvidia drivers problems: I am running two 590 EVGA cards. I am running drivers from 2/29/2012, version 8.17.12.9610 . The drivers are super stable and I NEVER have video problems but they are a LOT slower than any of the newer rleased versions. Yet when I trey the new ones I have a game breaking problem: At random times whend fast traveling or loading a new location the game locks up (with sound usually still playing) and the pc no longer responds. No CTD, it just hangs there. Tried it with and without mods, no difference. Found out later that both wide screen solution are equally the same as far as the problem. I had though the Helifax solutiuon was more prone to do it but no. The issue never ever happens in Window mode. Only full screen. I am using logmein on the pc, so it loads the LogMein Mirror drive in display adapters. Just in case it matters(?) Any ideas appreciated. Tonycubed2

I'm not entirenly sure how I did it but (1)I installed the new plugin properly, I added right resolutions for widescreenfixer (previusly it showed me my bezel corrected resolution as both the non corrected one and corrected bezel one, you click that gear icon next to which game you are going to use) and (3)last I selected my hotkey for the fix to be ctrl+alt (from setting tab, I left multibly as is). I hope that helped. Although I used patch 1.

Joined: 08 Dec 2011, 19:54 Posts: 41	Hi, First the good: Maps, menus, all graphical things are indeed FLAWLESS. Beautiful work. the bad: The mouse feels weird, laggy. I had to set the Sensitivity all the way to the right at 1.0 and that helped, but it is like trying ot use the inside a full bathtub with water running. It lags and is a bit inacurate. Any suggestions? edit: tried all the fixes below, ended up wiht th esldier at .53 and semi decent mouse movement. Looks like it is a Skyrim known issue? Worst case , i will play like it is. At least i can fight from them horses now! Beautiful work, will donate once again. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Skyrim Mouse Lag 4:08 AM faust1 No comments You may have started experiencing Skyrim mouse lag just after buying it. The surprising thing is that setting lowest options would not help at all. Thus I’m going to discuss with you several solutions of this problem that need not be necessarily lie in your mouse. · Prevent Overheating · Disable Mouse Acceleration Feature · Change Some Other Configurations · Make Optimum Services Profile · Defrag your Disks Prevent Overheating Make sure your processor is not overheating. If it is overheating, do take appropriate measures. First of all, open the cabinet of your CPU, clean all the components including fans & motherboard. Then try playing Skyrim and check whether Skyrim mouse lag persists or not. Disable Mouse Acceleration Feature The Mouse Acceleration feature can be the cause of mouse lag problem. Disable it as shown below: 1. Click Start, select My Documents. 2. Double click SkyrimSteamAppsCommonSkyrim. 3. Right click the file SkyrimPrefs.ini and select Open With | Notepad. 4. Click Edit | Find. Type bMouseAcceleration and click Find Next button. 5. After the keyword is highlighted, replace its value to 0. 0 represents disable and 1 represents enable. 6. Click File | Save. 7. Close the file. Change Some Other Configurations Along with the above said mouse acceleration feature change other game settings as below: 1. Repeat the Steps 1 to Step 3 given in the above paragraph. 2. Add the following lines after the contents of the file are end: fMouseHeadingXScale=0.01 fMouseHeadingYScale=0.01 3. Under [Display] section, search for a keyword called iPresentInterval. Replace its value from 1 to 0. 4. Save and close the file. Make Optimum Services Profile You’ll need to know which services are taking a lot of your memory and causing Skyrim mouse lag. Do this by installing a Services Optimizer software and making a new fresh profile with minimum number of services. 1. Download, install and run a Services Optimizer software. 2. Make a new services profile by clicking Optimize Services button from the Services Manager tab on the left hand side. 3. Select Gaming Computer (Extreme Performance) option from the drop down box that appears. Click Optimize Services button to apply your changes and proceed. Defrag your Disks If you’re not defragging your hard disk regularly, then it might be the reason why mouse lags while playing Skyrim. Defrag all the partitions of your hard disk to repair this issue. 1. Click Start, point to All Programs | Accessories | System Tools. 2. Select Disk Defragmenter. 3. Select all partitions that appears in the list. 4. Click Defragment Disks button.

There are two variables that control mouse sensitivity, I did notice that it seemed like the acceleration slew rate changed slightly but maybe it behaves differently because i have a ultra-high DPI mouse (eg. not so bad) - I will see if the 2nd variable (which also impacts sens. changes it without changing the slew rate) _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

I foilowed the steps in the video below, afer trying a lot of other "fixes", and while radical the steps worked! Worth looking over, I will paste the pertinent text here. Again , let me stress that I had given up hope and was desperate when I tried it. When it actually worked I was shocked. Step 1 is obsolete, and I fixed the file name in step 8, the guy had the wrong ini file. Also, I additionally disable ALL mouse acceleration EVERYWHERE I could find it, including the accelartion controls on my Razer Mamba rat. As a programmer some of the steps will mean more to you, like the 3d anti lag program: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2AJDJ8sOfQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player Step 1: -update skyrim to version 1.1 (fixes mouse sensitivity issues in the menus) Step 2: -if you are not playing on gamepad, go to skyrim "gameplay" options and disable "360" (removes a lot of input lag) Step 3: -go to your video driver control panel and set "frames rendered ahead" to "1" (removes a lot of input lag) Step 4: -go to "Skyrim/skyrim/skyrimprefs.ini" and set "bMouseAcceleration" to "0" (disables sluggish skyrim mouse acceleration) Step 5: -go to "my documents/my games/skyrim/skyrim.ini" and add "iPresentInterval=0" to the [display] section (disables vsync, very important for all following tweaks) Step 6: -download "D3D_Antilag_v1.1" (http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=34#content) and move "D3D9.dll" and "antilag.cfg" into the game folder (where the *.exe files are located) -open antilag.cfg with notepad and set "frames rendered ahead" to "1" (This forces frames rendered ahead to 1 and adds a framelimiter, which is required to fix vertical sensitivity issues) Step 7: -open antilag.cfg with notepad and change "FPSlimit" to "50" Step 8: -go to "my documents/my games/skyrim/skyrimprefs.ini" and add: [Controls] fMouseHeadingYScale=0.0132 fMouseHeadingXScale=0.0200 (this syncs vertical and horizontal sensitivity for the FPS limit we have just set) Step 9: -change your skyrim video settings so that performance never drops below 40 fps (vertical sensitivity depends on it!) Step 10: -mouse sensitivity fine tuning: open "my documents/my games/skyrim/skyrimprefs.ini" and set "fMouseHeadingSensitivity" to your desired value (dont touch the sensitivity slider in the game options after doing this!) other tweaks: -to change fov, open console ingame and type "fov 90" or open "skyrim.ini" and add "fDefaultFOV=90.0" to the [general] section

I will check it tonight and fix if I can find a book that causes it to fault, can you confirm how often it happens? I have this too and it only seems to happen on notes 100% of the time. It is noticible on bounty letter (the ones you get from inns and stewards). Gissur's note 0006DEB6 And map is working fine.

Joined: 11 Feb 2012, 14:11 Posts: 3	Hey all, First and foremost here are my PC specs: Windows 7 professional: 64 bit 12 Gigs DDR 3 RAM Dual ATI 6990 (Crossfire enabled) Pentium i7 3.8 Ghz 2x 250 SSD 3 HP 2310m monitors Here is my bugger of a problem - I disabled all mods and attempted to run Skyrim (either SKSE or Vanilla) with Hayden's flawless widescreen - and the game is absolutely unplayable. FOV looks correct but i am getting MAJOR stuttering at the intro screen (haven't even started a game yet its so bad). I can play the game smooth as butter on single monitor .... Here are the steps that i have taken thus far to try and fix this problem. 1) Ensure ATI Drivers are up to date 2) Disable Crossfire (and then re-enable it) 3) Disable all 3rd party mods 4) re-download flawless widescreen 5) re-seat my RAM and both video cards 6) manually adjusting my FOV settings in skyrimpref 7) not using flawless widescreen and using the native "Default" option on the skyrim widescreen (despite the crappy mentu's and what not) 8) Blood sacrifice (J/K) Still nothing.... What i am noticing when trying to play is the audible "pop" from my speakers ...leading me to believe it potentially could be a sound problem? If this is the case though i am lost as to why it would only be there when attempting widescreen... Takes about 5 minutes to get through the Bethesda logo and then mouse movement - response is so laggy on the main menu that i end up having to CTRL+ALT+DEL out of the game ... I have a pretty high-end gaming machine and I am still at a loss for words at how to fix this bad-boy....Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated... Thanks ! !

Also, I realize that there is a "fish-bowl" effect associated with widescreen gaming, but my side screen views are WAY out of proportion with my center screen. Everything gets magnified by at least three fold and objects barely viewable in the distance can stretch across the entire length of my side screen. It is like my side screen views are through a telescope. Am I missing something? Does everyone play like this? I tried adjusting the FOV but that didnt help much.

Joined: 05 Aug 2012, 10:07 Posts: 3	Sorry to bother, but i'm getting the same menu issues others were describing earlier. I've tried updating the plugins, re-installing both them and Flawless widescreen. I've tried to uninstall just the Skyrim plugins that Flawless Widescreen downloads from its own repo's and add the more recent one you posted, but FW seems to ignore its own settings and download its own plugins again anyway. I'm running version 1.7.7.0.6 and I've verified the local files in steam with no change. Within FW itself I see two plugins, one labelled The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and another TESV V: Skyrim (Old Fix). Using the first I get weird ratio problems with the game, horizontally everything fits but things are cropped off the top. Also all the elements are compressed and skewed. Using the second (Old Fix) plugin the Tab menu (skill, item, etc) looks fine, however the item menu itself is scaled off the screen, as well as the initial menus when launching the game. Any advice anyone could give me is appreciated. I'm running at 5980x1080 on a AMD Radeon HD 7950.

This solved all my issues apart from within the inventory. There the list is fine however items are far too large, as reported by others previously. The adjustment slider for tweaking item size doesn't seem to have an effect. I've tried making some brutal changes to the .lua script to see if I can sort it myself, however I can't seem to get any changes to items viewed in the inventory. Outside of that I can see results. I'm wondering if the address for inventory items has changed? I don't know enough to actually go any further myself.

Insiders Joined: 14 Feb 2010, 13:39 Posts: 761	For those that are having problems, please state your configuration including any GUI type mods in Skyrim, there's a couple of other posters who have said they have some GUI mod, can't remember the name and that breaks it... personally I run vanilla, so that's what the fix is based on. For those that are having issues with displaydetection (check the log in flawless widescreen) - eg. it's saying something like 5760x1080 but monitors = 1 then thats wrong and it will break the fix for this game or any other fix that uses the GridX/GridY monitor positioning to size or place elements, i've seen this happen seldom and only for crossfire users, not reproducible without the appropriate gear to do, the only fix for this is to use override as Gofortheface has indicated. I could entertain adding fixing for mod's if the time is warranted (eg. enough people care about it) and you have proven that the issue is caused by a specific mod. (eg. if you install it and the behavior is normal, then it's most likely the mod right?) Here are the results I get when I run the fix in a standard 1.7.7.0 TESV Enviroment + NVIDIA GTX670 wtih 3x 24" 1920x1080 displays, if yours does not look the same the fix is not working as intended. FWS whilst running: If Flawless widescreen is not detecting the display properly and you think it should be you can A) configure it manually eg. B) Post in the Flawless Widescreen thread with all the pertinent details so I can investigate. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

Your hardware (NVIDIA,AMD), wither its crossfire or not, driver version etc. _________________ Resident Jester - Flawless Widescreen - Widescreen gaming the way it should be.

Joined: 05 Aug 2012, 10:07 Posts: 3	HaYDeN, You're quite right, the problem was being caused by SkyUI. I've disabled it and now everything is fine. Its a tough decision as the mod does improve the menu system substantially in my opinion, however if they can't get along i'll just have to live with it. Thanks for taking the time to make and maintain this plugin, its a fantastic thing. Edit: I managed to eventually get SkyUI working with the widescreen fix. For anyone else who wants to do the same, you simply need to do the following: Open skyui_cfg.txt found within "SteamsteamappscommonskyrimDataInterface Find the [ItemInfo] section Change it to the following: itemcard.align = center itemcard.xOffset = 0 itemcard.yOffset = 0 itemcard.align = right itemicon.xOffset = 24 itemicon.yOffset = -8 itemicon.scale = 0.45 This worked well for me with the default SkyUI settings. If you changed anything or selected one of the widescreen aspect ratios you'll need to tweak "itemicon.xOffset = 24".

Step 10: -mouse sensitivity fine tuning: open "my documents/my games/skyrim/skyrimprefs.ini" and set "fMouseHeadingSensitivity" to your desired value (dont touch the sensitivity slider in the game options after doing this!) other tweaks: -to change fov, open console ingame and type "fov 90" or open "skyrim.ini" and add "fDefaultFOV=90.0" to the [general] section

The text size looks too big to fit even if the text started on the left hand edge. Books work fine and the status window correctly detects i am running 3x1 monitors for 3840x1024. Only other problem i have encountered is after the first in game loading screen each subsequent loading screen is a grey background with the smoke effect overlaid. I'm Running a gtx 670. Tried the alternate program and it squished some menus and stuff so just ended up using flawless widescreen. Any way i can reduce the text size for notes?

Sorry to ask a question which has probably been asked many many times , could somebody give me details about the best way to solve eyefinity issues for Skyrim, which can be solved. I'm unsure about what to do. Currently, I'm able to get my three monitors working in portait mode at a resolution of 3600 x 1920, but have really low FPS (compared with one monitor at 1920 x 1200) and the words "Level Up" constantly on the screen. Also when using one of the fixes, opening the skills menu closes the game. thanks a lot for all the hard work all of you do for the gaming community Adam

Recently just opening the launcher caused my custom shadow settings to revert to Ultra settings. There have been other instances where the FWS failed to completely alter the memory and only part of the UI was scaled correctly, usually a quick restart of Skyrim solved the issue however.

Flawless widescreen is fixing menus nicely and SkyUI is a godsend. Now to figure out why FWS is not affecting the FoV - the "stretch" on side monitors is very extreme and FWS doesn't seem to do anything. I've only loaded Unofficial Skyrim Patch, SKyUI and the high res Texture packs. Dont want to push my luck.. Thank you again Daimian

As for your FOV issue, you can change the FOV on the fly ingame by accessing the console (` key - just below escape) and typing in "FOV X" without quotes and replace X with your desired FOV. This will not save your FOV setting for next game launch however but can be used to then alter the .ini file if FWS is not working.

I have 3 30" monitors in portrait mode, for a resolution of 5106x2560 (that's with bezel correction- 4800x2560 standard). I am using NVIDIA nSurround. When I first installed Skyrim, it would run fine on this (the menus ingame are difficult to read, but that's something to troubleshoot further down the line). A few days ago NVIDIA lost the signal of the side monitors and I had to redo the Surround option and re-add the side monitors. It's possible that my bezel corrected resolution now differs from what I had earlier. I restarted Skyrim and now I get this error before the game loads: "Failed to initialize renderer. Your display doesn't support the selection resolution. Please set a different resolution in Skyrim's launcher under Display Settings." Thing is, there are no resolutions in the Resolution field that even come close to what I am using. I've usually just kept Resolution field blank. Can anyone advise me how I can get this working without doing a full uninstall and reinstall. Also, I am not interested in running the game in Windowed Mode. Thanks.

Make a back-up before deleting it and see if it helps:) _________________ WideScreen Fixer... Fixes your Surround problems to give a gorgeous 3D Surround Experience!

Its not that the game would crash or anything but both applications tell me that this version of Skyrim is not supported and nothing is changed ingame. Since I do not really posess any significant technical skills I would not know wether there were a simple solution for this issue or not. I am currently running 3 19" monitors in Eyefinity on 5760x1080.

Skyrim is all patched up, new plugin is in the folder (because in the setup screen it shows 1.9 as a version option). When I run it with delay, I can see it 'kick in' because it changes the floating Skyrim imagine on the main screen. But instead of changing it to normal size on middle monitor, it sortof half way changes it and it is less squished down and in between left and middle monitor. I alt-tabed out to see what WsF said and these were my values from the Status: Yes Yes 0x400000 2560 2560 2560 I'm running 7680x1600 with no bezel correction. (and I did double check and that is the resolution in my skyrimprefs.ini. Any one have any thoughts? PS: I already tried running it from both SKSE and just from the Skyrim launcher. Same result.

EDIT: To try some other things, I have disabled all mods, and have tried without SKSE. Still get same result. Skyrim symbol is not centered, all load screens are messed up, and FOV is messed up for all inventory objects, skills menu, etc. EDIT 2: I went ahead and configured a bezel corrected resolution, and tried to enter that in WsF and skyimpres.ini, that didn't work either.

But that's the case since I'm playing Skyrim on 3 screens. I am Playing 5960x1080 and to get this up and running I had to set it like this: Uncorrected Resolution: 5960x3240 Bezel-Corrected Resolution: 5960x1080

Probably the biggest thing for me is that when I view things in inventory, the picture of the item in the inventory is not scaled correctly (very large and you only see the bottom half as the top half is off the screen). I think, for some reason, this might have to do with SkyUI, because during my trouble shooting I had SkyUI off for another reason and I think the images were scaled correctly then. Either way, thanks a ton! It is playable with this and that is what counts!!

I think the mod uses different sets of instructions to scale the items.. Glad that it works and I do appologize for not offering support for the SkyUI mod.

Big boo to Steam (and the company that required Skyrim be exclusively Steam) for CONTINUING to have a tab with the LIE of choice to automatically update the game or not, that always switches back to "update" no matter what you choose. DAMN YOU. I think they have cameras in my house. Every time I get away from Skyrim, as soon as I decide to get back in it, they release a fix-breaking patch right before I do. Calling Hayden... ...FWS update for Skyrim please??? Last edited by AmeerNuub on 27 Apr 2013, 00:00, edited 1 time in total.

At first it seemed ok, but when a picture shows up in any dialog box, such as lock-picking, or the item shown next to the inventory, it shows up as a bunch of vertical lines. The same thing happens at the very first start menu, but corrects itself after about 20 seconds, but the above scenario never corrects. I have removed all mods and have only the official HD packs, and DLC running. I have tried setting things manually, and making sure the info is in the .ini. Then this AM I went to try some more and now the game crashes at launch with the WSF on but not with it off. Help?

Best Regards, Helifax OK, I blew away all the files on my HD relating to the game, re-downloaded and re-applied. This is on a freshly built box I built about 2 weeks ago, so it is still a clean system. So the behavior now is that the screen on startup is readable, the skyrim icon in split between the two screens on the left, but that is nothing. The vertical lines are gone, and everything is workable, only the locks are still zoomed, but that is playable. The only issue I still have is that when the game is stopped and restarted, I have to restart the WSF, or it will turn off my eyefinity on the next launch and I end up with 3 screens all showing the same 1920X1080 screen. Not that big a deal; but when I close WSF normally, the GUI goes away but the process is still running, so I have to kill it from the task manager to get it to stop. *edit* One other bug, sometimes the aiming reticle and other hud elements switch to the left screen. But if I esc in and out real quick fixes that, so it is playable, but annoying. So once I had a baseline I started adding my mods back in and it seems to happen with the SDSK/SKYui mods, Removing the SKYui alone did not clear it. It is a frustrating combo as they sit at the core of a lot of good mods. So I rinsed and repeated and I am back to the senario above.

All the things you have mentioned are discussed in this thread and are known issues. The fact that WSF freezes on exit is something weird and I cannot replicate. It is known that SKY-UI is not supported and atm there is no plan to support it. (and probably never since I dont really like the mod) Even the plugin description says what it does and what does not:) As from the rest I don't see anything game-breaking. The fix implementation is rather old. Probably I will revisit it sometime in the future, but I cant give any ETA on it.. Hope this helps in any way. _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

Hey, The loading screen (last time I checked) is acting normal the way you see it (Is not centered and the AR is stretched) For the 2nd problem. Sometimes that happens (the whole UI moves to the left screen). The quickest workaround is to press ESC-2 times which will re-align it. I know is not the most optimal solution and I apologize for it. I do plan to revisit the plug-in sometimes in the future to make it better, but sadly my free time of late is very very limited. Hope this helps you, Helifax _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

I know that there is some confusion about it. WSF does have the latest plugin inside and is working. The solution is not as "Good" as the one from FWS but it allows you to play the game. More info is in the plugin's description:) _________________ WideScreen Fixer... Fixes your Surround problems to give a gorgeous 3D Surround Experience!

I have a question that a search didn't turn up for me though; I am getting map markers that are misaligned with the map. Is that a symptom of WSF, widescreen in general, some mod I am using, or any other potential issue? I've tried disabling all map mods and getting new ones, but they are still misaligned (Riverwood is in the middle of the mountain next to it on the map). Any fixes anyone knows of? Thanks!

Each monitor is 2560x1600. So the total resolution should be 7680x1600 and 3 monitors. the Autodetect feature will pick-up the windows resolution. I haven't actually test it with so high resolutions but I imagine it should work. If the auto detect doesn't pick that up you can manually configure the plugin:) PS: you will also need to manually set the resolution in Skyrimprefs.ini _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

For a moment there you got me worried:)) But here it is the setting I am referring to . You can open the config part for each plugin by: - selecting the desired plugin - press the cog/gear next to it. Like I said before, the default 4 seconds probably is not enough for a moded game. Increase it around 7-10. Attachments: Untitled.jpg [ 71.62 KiB | Viewed 8381 times ] _________________ WideScreen Fixer... Fixes your Surround problems to give a gorgeous 3D Surround Experience!

Does anyone have any suggestions?

The WSGF doesn't support or advocate piracy, and as such it's against the site rules to support or advocate piracy on the site, this extends to developers that use the site and make fixes I'm afraid. They are not allowed to support pirate version via this site, even if they wanted to. _________________ : ) Skid : ) My Multi-Monitor Focused YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/c/SkidIncGaming My Twitch channel which I've been known to stream on from time to time: http://www.twitch.tv/SkidInc "Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality."

Then I unzip it and run it in as an administrator. Then I select the game Skyrim and selected the Skyrim version, I have not used bezel correction and I am using AMD Eyefinite solution with resolution of 5760x1080 (three screens and each 1920x1080) I selected following values: ini files already modified to 5760. v 1.9.32.0.8 dis-select automatically detect resolution dis-select portrait display count 1 uncorrected reolution 5760x1080 bezel resplution 5760x1080 8 seconds chosen The skyrim edition is clean and without any mod However, it is not working! when i launched the skyrim, it is still the same as without the widescreen fix, then a few seconds later, the big letters disappear on the right screen! so even worse than without the fix. plz help helifax, what can i do here? did i do anything wrong?

The only thing that's a bit annoying is whenever I go read a book or view the map, the HUD will transfer to the left screen. But to fix it I just click "Tab" or open & close the inventory quickly, and it jumps back to normal. Here's 5 pics I took while playing. http://imgur.com/a/Ldx67#0 I've modded it much more since these were taken, so now it's got totally realistic graphics

I've done all I could to get this fixed, so this is my last shot at making it work. I have recently purchased a Philips 298X4 monitor, 21:9 aspect ratio, 2560x1080 native resolution, with an ATI HD 6970 card. I have the Skyrim Legendary edition, but I also own the standard edition too, so I could try a fresh install to a previous version, but I'd lose the latest patches. I have tried both Flawless Widescreen and the Widescreen Fix, with and without skyrimpref.ini editing. FW didn't work at all for me, except for ruining all my mods setup. Widescreen does seem to work well for the ingame resolution, but menus and HUD are all messed up. It seems they think my resolution is twice the size it is, as the compass and the dialog options that usually are are the top-middle and top center of the screens are now placed on my far left edge and only displayed in half. I can't access inventory, game menus, can't even exit the game without manually crashing it. Now, if I go to skyrimprefs.ini and change the values, it tells me my display doesn't support 2560x1080 and asks me to change it, when previously I was able to edit the ini and run the game... weird. Anyway, Widescreen fixer does apply the resolution to the game, but not to menus and UI. Any advice at this point would be incredibly appreciated, as I've exhausted all forums, discussion boards and faqs I could find... thx

I have no idea what to say except try an older driver version and see if it works? I am on Nvidia and don't have an AMD card to give more info on what drivers I would recommend... but for me on nVidia I am still stuck on the 331.40 betas (or 327.23) since these are the only ones that either don't crash the driver kernel, support triple buffering and 3D vision properly.. From what I gather both AMD and nVidia are PURE crap atm with their drivers...so I would try an older driver version... _________________ WideScreen Fixer...

When the lockpick screen comes up its much larger than when using one monitor. The "circle" of the lock clips the top of the screen, the animation/action of rotating the pick at the 10 and 2 oclock position (approx) seems to be highly sensitive so that finding the sweet spot becomes very difficult. I assumed this was doe to a scaling issue, I do not recall this being the case when only playing with one screen? Anyway, I have a bigger issue now.... Since updating Nvidia drivers last week FWS no longer works, despite all attemps at changing settings etc the game continues to load up with one screen and Im not even able to select my native res (for even one monitor) in the skyrim graphics settings.

Im running the regular Skyrim version 1.9.32.0.8. I have 3 monitors each 1920x1080. I have Eyefinity as well. My video card is an AMD Radeon HD 6700. I have SKSE. I have Widescreen Fixer. Ive changed the Skyrim.ini file to 5760x1080. Nothing is working and Im convinced its just me not having the combination of settings in order. First let me start off by saying thanks because I know you guys DONT have to help anyone out or make these programs to help us. Okay here we go. Do I have to have Eyefinity enabled before I start Skyrim? Do I have to have my main display set as the middle monitor so it extends out to the sides? As of right now all I see when I start Skyrim is the regular game just duplicated on three screens. Then when I downloaded Widescreen fixer it was the same thing but then it just expands (probably the way its supposed to but Its duplicated so it just looks squished). I dont know what Im doing wrong. Ill re-install if I have to. I dont care I just want to shoot people on a REALLY big screen. Thanks for reading my wall of text.

Hey there:)) I do not have Eyefinity, I am on Surround and I cannot get the game to be duplicated on all 3 screens. That I know is an Eyefinity thing. Read the 1st page on this thread and there people with eyefinity managed to make it span. I imagine you need to enable Eyefinity BEFORE starting the game and have the 3x resolution in skyrimprefs.ini then WSF would fix all the issues with incorrect rendering;)) Sorry that I cannot provide more info as am I am not familiar with how eyefinity drivers are working:( _________________ WideScreen Fixer...
