Widescreen Gaming Forum

Hello all,

yes I know about all the issues with the UI moving to the left and the map problems. What I did was to change how some instructions work. The problem is that the same instructions are called with/without a delay when entering/exiting different menus. Finding out why the delay is there is harder than fixing it in the 1st place. I know is a bit annoying, but I dont consider it game breaking. After all pressing 2 ESC makes the game re-center it:) ATM I will not pursue this;))
Hope you understand and enjoy the fix:)

Best Regards,
Helifax

[quote]Helifax, great work on wsf! Thanks!

Wanted to post 2 issues and hoping for advice on remedy:

1. When I enter map and then close it - my HUD , as in compas, health and reticule
Jump to my left monitor. Open menu then closing it puts my HUD back in center.

Pretty consistent behavior. Menus are not effected though. Why would it do that?

2. I'm running SkyUI mod, and all my items aRe super magnified, as in 3d image of the item is huge, covering most of the time good chunk of menu. I understand it might be SkyUI related as it reners in wsf solution, but wanted to ask if you are familiar with that anomaly.

Vanilla menu 3d item rendering works as expeced though.

Thanks in advance

I have two issues, but I think it may be linked. Like ^ forkandspoon, at the start menu, everything is zoomed in. In the main menu, I am unable to click on any options because it's too zoomed in. And my second issue is, the mouse speed is way too sensitive, even though the look sensitive is on the lowest setting possible. It's very extremely difficult to click on anything. :S My status of Widescreen fixer is
"Gaming Running Yes
Fix Enable Yes
Base Address 0x400000
One Screen Resolution 1920
Screen Offset 2105
Adaptive Resolution 1920

Using SkyUI

But I think I'm gonna trade all this crap in for a 30" monitor.

Of course, I am on the steam version. Support the dev! I have tried redownloading the plugin for widescreen fixer 3.1r398, but I get an error that it requires API 2.1. So, I went over to Widescreen fixer 3.0.307, but the fixer with the downloaded skyrim plugin does not work correctly, "Fix Enable" has failed. Back to Widescreen Fixer 3.1r398, I can get into Widescreen Fixer 3.1r398 and into skyrim, but like I said before, start menu and loading screen is way zoomed in. It appears that everything is working except the lock pick is zoomed in.

Well......I whole-heartedly appreciate the efforts of both Hayden and Helifax. But I think I'm gonna trade all this crap in for a 30" monitor. It's just too much of a hassle trying to fiddle with these 3rd party programs, finally getting them working, only to have it break with each patch and have to start the process all over again. Usually when I get time to play I end up spending that time trying to get the damn game to work right. Bethesda is showing zero interest in addressing this issue. So I think I'm gonna have to admit defeat.

Has anyone gotten a positive response from Bethesda on this issue? I wish someone would ambush Todd Howard or any other Bethesda developer at one of these conventions like PAX or E3. Perhaps one of the GPU developers could help urge them to consider support.

The latest WidescreenFixer fix is working great out of the box on my setup (6048x1080 bezel corrected). All I had to do was uncheck the autodetect resolution box under the widescreenfixer config icon. The latest fix applies itself when the game starts - the only thing that I have to do is make sure my skyrim ini files (both skyrim.ini and skyrimprefs.ini) are set to read only and my resolution is specified in SkyrimPrefs.ini - iSize H=1080 iSize W=6048. I'm launching the game through a skse (for skyUI) shortcut and the steam overlay, achievements, etc. are all working. With the latest fix Skyrim really couldn't be easier to run in eyefinity (aside from official support of course). I have noticed that without using the "64Hz bug fix" mod, the game is very choppy in crossfire/eyefinity. That mod really smooths it out a lot.

The only issues that I've had with the latest fix are as follows:
- After using the map or reading a book I have to double tap Tab to move the UI from the left monitor back to center
- Item pictures are too large and on the right monitor when using SkyUI (but SkyUI works great with this fix!)

Where did Hayden go, BTW?
