Patch centers UI

Post by DeumReaper »

After the 10-01-12 patch using the Flawless Widescreen plugin now centers the HUD correctly for Eyefinity.

Things are still messed up for Eyefinity users. All the character models are still Vert- and way cut off.

You should play a Asura then

You should play a Asura then ;) They are so small they are not cut in scenes ^^
In fact I tried the flawless widescreen some times ago but all characters are fat with it, so it was not better than without. In fact the only eyefinity issue with GW2 is that the cutscenes are zoomed and so we miss the head of most characters. Not a big issue though, and I prefer having the head cut than the fat guys and girls with the GW2 flawless widescreen patch.

Except of course if the recent patch fixes this as well... have to check out...

I am running GW2 on a 20x30x20 PLP with SoftTh and Flawless widescreen. If you enable the centered hud, and set the hud size ingame to "normal" it all works fine, UI, Cut scenes, even player select menu

I fixed it and it works now.

you have to plug all monitors to one GPU for it to work, but you can still use the second gpu to do all the phsyics which i highly recommend otherwise thigns will be slow

i ended up using 1080x1600 on the sides and never touched the center at 2560x1600 However you can't move your mouse to the side panels in the game. so you might want to max out the minimpa when on 2560x1600 first then go and import the d3d9.dll, and the Config File.

Now i just need to learn how to import Reshade and Sweet FX ontop of this

Without any external programs or addons. The gameplay works native, flawlessly in 3440x1440 . The loading screens are still some of them 16 - 9, and login screen scale characters larger to not fit on a 21 d 9 screen. The gameplay however, in all instances, city, pve or pvp wvw. wherever in the world Is 21 - 9.....game should be updated to gold in ultrawide....
