Transfomers: War for Cybertron

[Elmakai]

Is there any word if this game will support triple monitor gaming? I can't find anything on the net.

[noquarter]

I don't know but it uses Unreal Engine 3 so.. /sigh

Hopefully they add it though.. game looks cool, so glad they are not using the stupid models the movies used.

*Shrugs shoulders* I actually enjoy the "Bayformers", as they have been dubbed. There are many generations of Transformers, and those in paticular were made for a more realistic/complex look, I'm assuming, which I believe they did pretty well. At the same time, I was a fan of the original Transformers, so having the game models look somewhat like that is cool too. But from what I can tell, it seems it's more based on the recent anime series, no?

This game is getting good reviews. Graphics are impressive. Must have triple head transformers! :twisted:

the game has turned up today from play.com so will you know.

[StAnToN]

nope while the game stretches across all 3 monitors it seems to be vert-.

[GitDat]

Anyone know the tweak to remove the 30 fps cap?

If it's UE3 then a fix could be anything from relatively easy to extremely difficult.

Really wish companies would release more demos. This game is high on my interest list.

Just got the game this morning, it runs with eyefinity at 6048x1200, but it is unplayable. The FOV is terrible, and the textures look shit compared to playing with a single screen. We need to find a fix, as the game is quite fun.

Single screen: 1920x1200



Eyefinity: 6048x1200 :doh

UE3 Vert- in all it's glory. :( With the zoom-in effect that severe it's no wonder the textures look cruddy.

Question: Does the video options menu offer any selection for monitor aspect ratio? Typically it will list 4:3, 16:9, 16:10. If not, is there a setup utility for the game with this info?

If you can find a setting like this, please choose a single resolution and take comparison screenshots of all available aspect ratios. This would help determine how the game treats FOV.

I just had a look, there are no advanced options for video. You can only select brightness adjust, Quality : (low, medium high) setting, Vsync (on,off), and Fullscreen (on,off). There are no options for anything else, no AA, AF, Aspect Ratio, etc.

I have been trying to find an .ini file to edit but so far I cant find anything.

[GeneralAdmission]

I was afraid of that. Well if there is nothing in the game directory or tucked away in My Documents somewhere, I have occasionally found config files buried in the Documents and SettingsUSERApplication Data directory. Try searching your registry as well.

Also, sometimes games have very odd naming/extensions for their config files and can be hard to find if there are lots of files in the game directory. If TF looks like that, try hunting for any files that are relatively small (<1MB normally) with recent modification dates. The options information has to be stored somewhere, but sometimes the means of storing that data baffles me.

No luck at all, I can't find a thing. :|

Haha, My friend (and bandmate) wants me to get this game, I don't think I'm going to unless there's a fix. I only buy games that can do surround.

[Jothay]

Same here, can't find any sort of configuration file other than an encoded one in the program files directory

Psyche has made an fps unlocker for it, grab it here:

[suiken_2mieu]

any update on getting a camera hack, or a FOV increase?

[theironman12]

sigh wanted to play this on 3 screens too.....

[GitDat]

Still no multi-monitor fixes for this still? :( Pretty please with Megan Fox on top :cheers

[Punisher|ITA]

Does it really work? Because it doesn't seem... no changes here. I have Steam version of the game. 1.0? I don't know if it has been updated.
