ATI eyefinity Hack for singularity

[litwav]

You can hack this game, but will have to go to regedit to do so. in HE_key_current_users_activision_singularity_regX edit to 0x00001680 for 5760 wide, if another resolution use calculator and type in wide screen resolution and then click hex and that will be the line edit for regX. This also works in wolffenstein and any other games using unreal engine.

Moved to multi-mon section, since this most likely relates to all multi-mon setups. :)

Does this fix the menus too? I haven't tried the game yet but i heard the menus are vert-

[Abram]

The Main menu is proper. No stretch or anything. dunno about the rest.

I just tried this out with Singularity. It runs good for me in 6048x1200, but the hud in game looks stretched, and the textures look terrible. Im hoping to find a fix for the fov, hopefully that will fix the hud, and textures. Everything I have tried so far has not worked though.

Hey it looks like borderlands textures! lol

Its a shame so many games have problems with HUD....
It seems like every game I have wanted to play always has just that ONE thing, typically small (like hud being stretched, or AoC's nameplate issue) that completely breaks the experience for me. It's a real bummer.

Works with Nvidia Surround also!

Just click decimal and type in your resolutions, will auto-convert to hex in registry.

Watched the opening scene single monitor, then again triplewide, no comparison!

Bezel correction is working, and since this is a dx9 game it runs fast and smooth.

There are indeed some pretty bad textures here and there, up close they are damn ugly!

Hehe sure :)

Good news (sort of), there is a patch for the single player game here to fix ugly textures:

http://www.playwrite-blog.net/tools-and-utilities/singularity-texture-patch/

Unfortunately if you try to play multiplayer Steam will overwrite the exe.

I also cranked the Nvidia control panel settings to max for AA and texture filtering, and looks much better (blends the edges of items to look more natural.

But only playing this one single player anyways. Beginning of the game is definitely giving a Bioshock vibe, but that is a good thing.

Tested and looks clear now, have fun all!

Thanks for the link Tricky, the texture patch worked perfect. :cheers

There is also an Application Profile Update for ATi to give AA support for Singularity:

hey i did that regedit thing and it shows there its resolution is 5040 x 1050, but still when i start the game it doesnt show it as multiscreened. and in reg it shows it again on 1680x1050 ? anyone know how to fix this ?

[Abram]

Patch 1.1 has been released. IT fixes the slow-loading textures, among other things. HUD is still wackd, though.

AND it works with Quadfire 5970 with good scaling WITHOUT TEARING!! This must be the best game ever!! :mrgreen:

Does it also fix the resolution settings?

Same problem here - after changing it in regedit and launching the game, it reverts back..

Trying on 3600x1920 on 3x24 portrait mode

Just making sure you are clicking (*) Decimal and then inputting the values...

e.g. 5040 ends up converting to hex as: 13b0
1050 ends up converting to hex as: 41a

Best of luck!

May want to get this game when price goes down looks fun.

The new 1.1 patch should have resolved the texture issues without use of the hack/workaround.

Huh? The game had always showed all resolutions I'd expect to see in the options.

I am sorry I do not understand something. What calculator are you talking about? The only one I see here is on the website and I do not see a hex to click. I am trying to play Singularity at 4320x900 on three 19 inch monitors with no bezel compensation. Thank you anybody for your help.

So would you guys say this game is better in eyefinity w/ stretched hud or single screen with no rendering issues?

did the 1.1 patch break the eyefinity hack?
