Just tried it. Unfortunately, it did not work. I could get the image to fully display across three screens, however it was very stretched.

Hi TheVENOM,

it works better if you set it to "Windowed Fullscreen" mode.
Cutscenes are still not perfect but everything else seems fine to me.

Flawless Widescreen has just updated with a fix for Guildwars 2 and while not perfect it does give some good improvements. The hud is centered and you can now see your character in character creation even if squashed and fat. Same in conversations.

Anyone know how to fix this problem? Chat & Party won't go on the middle screen.. When I click to drag the chat or party window (can swap them up or down) their green outlines show on the middle screen but they don't want to ACTUALLY appear there..

having same issues with the HUD

Chat and party windows are way off to the sides and can not be moved in the standard game or with the fixer installed :(

for anyone still experiencing UI stretching (or hoping someone has an easy fix for it):
I find that if I change my resolution to a single monitor rez (like 1280x1024) and then switch back to 5040x1050 fixes my UI...
It just sux that it's stretched horizontally every time I start up, and have to go thru this process, even double bad since I can't keybord thru the menu's and my mouse doesn't interact with the menus where they show up....

I might try that flawless widescreen app posted above - I just never bothered with 3rd party apps before. I prefer being able to tweak an ini file or something manually..

I can confirm what vsFirefox has said. When I set the resolution the first time, the game worked perfectly and all UI and cutscene FOVs were flawless. Upon restarting the game, it gets all stretchy and my mouse is not where it appears to be. By changing to the single monitor resolution, then back to the multi, it fixes everything and runs flawlessly again.

Does anyone have any idea how this might be tweaked or fixed to not need a rez refresh every time?

When you all say that it's "working" -- is your HUD centered? I saw a video when they were showing the game off a long time ago in eyefinity with a centered HUD, but have been unable to get mine to center properly. Everything else seems fine, but the game just isn't playable without a centered HUD. I'm kind of afraid to try the fix for risk of being banned...

It does works, if you set the interface size on "normal".

You could try the Camera/FOV tool I made for this game:

NO NEED ANYMORE!!! Last nights patch fixed this (for Nvidia anyway, not sure of AMD). Character creation and cutscene distortions are no more!!!! Also, Anet centered the chat window and the team info, so it's no longer on the super far left!!! Thank you ArenaNet!!!

I have checked and the fix is only for NVIDIA. The HUD is still spanned on AMD (which I actually prefer), but the character selection and cut-scenes are still unusable. I haven't had a chance to test the Widescreen Fixer on AMD yet. Since it previously "made AMD as good as NVIDIA", I'm guessing it will still do the same (possibly with an update).

Edit: I have validated that the Widescreen Fixer is able to correct the AMD experience, for all aspects - character select/create, cut-scenes, HUD and map. I preferred the multi-monitor map and the spanned HUD, but the fix for the character models is crucial.

You could always rotate those monitors, game works fine in portrait mode at least for me. Its more immerse anyway since things like castle walls and trees actually have a sense of height.

Hello,

I can confirm that even using NVIDIA based cards, Full-screen mufti-monitor is still messed up for me.

I use:
3x EVGA GTX 580s with 3gb of ram water-cooled
3x Dell UltraSharp U2711 which are 27inch
Resolution: 4320x2560
Setup: Portrait Mode

I am having to resort to playing in Windowed Full-screen, which reduces my FPS. Whenever I go into Full-screen mode, my chat window, skill bar and mini map will attempt to squid to the center, but all 3 of them are horribly offset to the right which I cannot seem to fix. Besides, with Portrait Mode, the UI elements are fine where they are, just very small on my monitor size seeing as the UI doesn't scale very well past a certain resolution, which happens to be my native, so anything lower ends up looking horrible.

Whenever I open the World Map, both side monitors will completely black out, resulting in only the center monitor displaying the center section of the map and odd black frames, seemingly from the right monitor, are being pushed to the center.

I have tried to get ArenaNet to work with me since testing about all of this. It seems that they are attempting to resolve some of the issues. At this point I am wondering, could it be something from NVIDIA's side? Ever since before the game came out, I have gone over about 6 different NVIDIA drivers. Do you think it could be something in the control panel I could change to resolve some of these issues?

Thank you
