I got the retail game key yesterday and registered it on Steam but I can't get the game to run in Eyefinity resolution of 5992x1080. I followed instructions but the best resolution I can get is 1680x1050, not even 1920x1080

Hi,

I just tried to run Prey in fullscreen on my 2560x1440 screen. It doesn't run full screen at all, regardless of what I put in the cfg file. It just looks like a small window without borders.
If I set it to windowed mode it gets even smaller, but it has a normal window borer.

I've got two screens and I'm running on Win8.1 x64.
AMD Omega driver 14.12

CFG File: http://pastebin.com/NWdhTHSR

Changed lines:
seta r_customHeight "1440"
seta r_customWidth "2560"
seta r_mode "-1"
seta r_aspectRatio "1"


I've tried disconnecting my second monitor, but it didn't change anything.

Is there anything else I can try?

EDIT:
I had a program called WindowManager running and I had to add prey.exe as an exception. Now it works.

Hello,
I was trying out 3x 4k monitors with pray and it runs great but tehre is just one anoying thing. It looks like vertical field of view is much smaller in surround then when using single mon. Even with FOV slider at maximum problem is still with vertical fov.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

FOV slider ? You must be talking about the 2017 game then... ;) You need to use Flawless Widescreen to push the FOV beyond 120.
We don't have a Detailed Report for this Prey yet but PCGamingWiki has lots of useful info: https://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Prey_(2017)
