Eyefinity not working

[Slinky]

So, I just got another monitor today and eyefinity isnt cooperating. I made my group just fine, but when I open a game, the image is duplicated on both screens. How do I get it to span all the way across?

[Slinky]

Edit: It seems to be game specific. Mafia 2 would duplicate but unreal tourny 3 worked just fine.

Edit again: I change the resolution in the save file and it works now.

For Mafia 2 it will show the higher resolutions. Just choose that and apply and it will go to eyefinity mode.

Slinky, when you changed the resolution and got Eyefinity working in Mafia 2, did you automatically get a centred HUD? In other words, is your minimap in your center screen?

Yeah mine is in the center

I've completed the game now on a 3x1 Eyefinity setup and the HUD was always on the center screen for me. Never was an issue.

Strange that my HUD looks like it does. I can only assume that the BizLink Dual-link DP-DVI adapter is to blame. I've got a VGA adapter now, but I had to RMA one of my screens so I have to wait until I get another one to see if I get a centered HUD with the new adapter.

What particular game resolution did you choose? I chose the 3x1920x1080. That sets the game to show properly on the three screens. I didn't try any other resolution but have to wonder if, for example, you choose something like 5760x1080 [if that is even an option] if that doesn't force the HUD to the far right?

[Bradbury]

5760x1080 is what I used. I didn't notice 3x1920x1080, but I will check it out when I get my monitor back. I suppose I won't be getting any bezel compensation with this resolution...

Yes, you are right. Using the 3x[whatever] option eliminates the Bezel Compensation in the game. It doesn't void Bezel Compensation otherwise, though. But, I really didn't notice any problem with it during the entire game. At least it wasn't distracting due to me keeping my focus on the center screen.
