Fallout 4 Eyefinity/Surround

[ugzz]

I've already wasted 45 min and got 0 gameplay. Followed all the steam ini tweaks but found the game unplayable. Now i deleted all .ini files to let them re-create but even on launch i'm getting mad problems. I can't get 1920x1080 to even load right on my 5760 setup. the only way i can launch it right is by shutting surround OFF.. wow is that a pain! so i'm trying to figure out how to play in 1920x1080 while still in 5760 mode. Most games just work, but fallout is pissed right now, and i'm not sure if its a native error or what..
When I UNCHECK "windowed" mode the resolution options go blank (in the launcher). I want fullscreen NON-WINDOWED, to run at 1920x1080.


So.. if you delete the ini in documents\my games\fallout4.. it gets re-created.
if you delete the ini from the GAME folder. for the steam copy this is steamapps\common\fallout 4\fallout4 it does NOT re-create. I had to make sure the files were in BOTH locations and set them BOTH to fullscreen and 1080. Then it worked to get it working at standard res without me changing my screen res.

Also, is anyone having horrible performance issues in surround?
I'm running two Titan's and can't get above 30 FPS.
Not sure if it is working in SLI, since both GPUs are consistently as 100%
And I can't find force SLI rendering mode in the Nvidia control panel, like everyone else seems to have.

Running 1x980Ti, Ultra settings, smooth as glass. Did you unlock the frame rate?

Triplewide settings
iSize W=5824
iSize H=1080
fDefaultWorldFOV=100
fDefault1stPersonFOV=100
bFull Screen=1
bBorderless=0

Framerate
Search for the line iPresentInterval=1, and change it to iPresentInterval=0

So excuse me....does NO ONE here have THIS issue of a BLACK line going across their screen (WIDESCREEN Users - NOT Eyefinity people)



I have SLI enabled (though the game doesn't use SLI at all) and I have updated drivers. FYI I turned off EVERYTHING In the options (ultra low) and it only happens at this resolution of 3440x1440. Not lower. If I play with Ultra settings below this resolution (1440p) doesn't happen either. Basically trying to say its not settings related so lets not go there.

Same thing for me on 3440*1440 (no sli) kinda annoying ...

You're running that resolution 60 FPS with a 980 TI?

I'm assuming it's not working well, due to SLI not working properly.



I'm running the original Titans though, which are equivalent to a 970.


Getting about 25-40 FPS averaging 30 FPS.

980ti SLI here. Can't get the game to run in fullscreen on anything other than 800x500. .ini editing doesn't allow the ability to enable fullscreen. Can't even play in 1920x1080 fullscreen since it stretches wildly (5760x1080 triple monitor). 1920x1080 windowed, with borders is the only viable option at the moment.

Running nvidia surround, fullscreens, 1920x1200, ultra high - stable 60 on a single 970 gtx
NS 5760x1200 (tripple monitor) has an unplayable gui ;(
p.s. seems like a single 970 will be not enough (not even close) to handle 5760x1200 with 60 fps, shity optimisation with sux graphic ;( hate bethesda, especially for nice storys about 'polishing' finished game since June.

I had heaps of issues until I updated to the latest Nvidia drivers. I would try that first and foremost. That at least let me get the ini file to work properly for me.

Then I went to Documents\My Games\Fallout4\Fallout4prefs.ini and set:
bTopMostWindow=0
bMaximizeWindow=0
bBorderless=1
bFull Screen=1
iSize H=1080
iSize W=1920

Saved the file and started the game and it plays single screen on my Nvidia Surround setup. Not ideal but gets me going. Hope that helps.

THIS!

I didn't read the Steam Guide properly and set everything in borderless windowed (I missed the part detailing for fullscreen). This absolutely tanks your FPS and whatever setting in NVCP won't stick (triple buffer, max rendered frame and vsync in my case).

After switching to proper full screen (single monitor, 3440x1440), I got solid 60fps, as it should with a GTX 980 and i5 2500k.

Sadly it can't be fixed via .ini Edits only, we really need a memory hack here. I've also managed to center the HUD via Safezone but it's still stretched then

I've even created a custom resolution of 1920x360 but guess what happened? The game started in windowed mode 800x600 Pixel! It does not recognise any other resolution than the few pretty programmed 16:9 and 16:10. Thats really lame.

I can deal with stretching ... but did you get it so the menus are not cut off at the top and bottom?

Crafting/inventory is guess work ........

[Haldi]

you mean like this?



Sadly no way to fix it atm

Same for this:


btw, i've copied:
fDefaultWorldFOV=80
fDefault1stPersonFOV=90
from [Interace] to [Display] Section in my Fallout4.ini and it looks better than the normal 80 FoV in 1st Person. 100 is imho tiny we bit to much.
I've also set
fSafeZoneX=250.0
fSafeZoneXWide=250.0
in the [Interface] section to push the HUD as close together as possible without overlapping.



Doesn'^t work for crafting tough.

This is just depressing

This is just depressing

Tell me about it, i've been keeping my eyes peeled for a HUD fix for 21:9

It just isn't the same playing at 1920x1080

[latexyankee]

It's hilarious that these are the same exact issues from NV like 6 years ago.

I love bethesda games but I'm really starting to agree with the consensus that they'll just have other people fix their game. It makes zero sense to not included native support with all the ultrawide monitors on the market. As for triple monitor setup, this has been a popular thing for 10 years now. 10 years man.....every other AAA or high profile game I've played in recent memory support nearly every resolution possible, except for MGS5 which is clearly not even a pc game, there is literally no option to rebind keys. Turned that off after 10 minutes and will never touch it again.

[spacepiggio]

Mine does not work out of the box, I play on 3 27" with a res of 6048 X 1080. Any more help on finding the file or when there is going to be a fix. I had such a hard time with Skyrim & never got that to work right either.

[latexyankee]

I actually got fed up with new vegas and gave up. I could get it to run but after every update or just random times playing the game it would overwrite my ini regardless if it was set to read only. It drove me nuts to spend 30 minutes editing it all over again and I just said fuck it.

Played tons of Fallout 3, but never got into Vegas, played it for about 2 hours then uninstalled it.

This is just baffling that so much time and energy goes into the artwork, animation, etc. but then they drop the ball with poor keyboard reassigning (I am not a WASD player, but I have to for this game, may try a gamepad), poor multi-monitor support etc. Going to put the game away for a while and hope for a fix.

They NEVER fixed it for Skyrim or new vegas, they never even mentioned acknowledging the requests. Pete was asked many many times on twitter in the past month about ultrawide support and nobody ever replied.

It will not be fixed, I'm not trying to sound negative, but they will not even respond to the complaints. If you can't wait for a community fix get your refund while you still can.
