I am having the same problem as bkc6j. I am using NVDA surround. My native res is 6043x1200. When I start the game and get to the main menu everything is horrible stretched and distorted. It's not so bad that I can't make out the menu, but it's bad enough that I can't seem to change my res thru the in game menu. I've tried all other solutions I can find. Including downloading the config file for a different res and changing to DX9 those did not work. I have tried dropping my native res to 1920x1200 and that did not help. That worked, but obviously I want to do 3 monitor surround. When in 1920x1200, I still couldn't seem to change the res from the in game menu.

Although this didn't work before, maybe someone can make me a config file to put in the Options folder? Other thoughts?

I'm not sure I understand your problem...
1) You CANNOT select a multi-mon res from the in-game menu.
2) Menus stretch in multi-mon, there's nothing you (well, I) can do about it. At least this should indicate that the game is running at your native res...

Anyway, I can probably help you with a modded config file. What settings do you need ? 6043x1200 + DX10 ?

Ok, ummm, maybe you don't understand my problem but you answered a question: you can't set 6043x1200 from the in game menu. Basically, everything is superstretched as you mentioned and that is the problem. I have 2 460GTX's in SLI so I like to think I can max most things out. It would be awesome if you could make a config file. Thanks man!!!!!!

Here you go: link

This is unrelated to RF:G but as a rule of thumb, your display width should be a multiple of 3 (like 6042 or 6045) just to be sure that games with a centered HUD don't fail to calculate the HUD's position because of the odd pixel count. ;)

Hmmm, I didn't know that. I'll change it to 6042x1200. Thanks!

Any chance you could make a 5960 x 1200? I know it's been a while... 8)

No problem, it's quite fast and easy to do. I only wish I was better at explaining how to do it... :oops:
