Can't seem to get this to work right because the game has physical limitations. I tried in Fullscreen while using SoftTH because Eyefinity doesn't like displays that aren't the same resolution and putting the DLL in any directory didn't make it recognize the multi-monitor solution. Then I tried Windowed mode using these settings in user.ini:



And got tons of black area on the sides of my screen. I don't know what's causing this, but it seems to be something in the game itself limiting the amount of draw distance horizontally. Here's the rest of what I've got for anyone that might know how to fix it.

Apparantly.. there is a patch for this that will auto update through steam.

I am still having this trouble however, as i am using a *cough*cracked*cough* version.

if anyone knows how to fix it without the patch it would be awsome.

Auto-update through Steam? Isn't that a good thing? Like won't that means I could try now?

Hi!

I think you are use too big height resolution. But the idea for windowed mode is very useful. And NO vsync! Try it:

full_screen_height = 1024 or 1050 or 1200
full_screen_width = 3960
vsync = 0
window_height = 1024 or 1050 or 1200
window_width = 3960
support_aspect_ratio_16_10 = true
support_aspect_ratio_4_3 = true
support_aspect_ratio_custom = true

Are you able to run DS3 in multi-monitor mode with fullscreen?

Unfortunately not. But set the window size equal with the fullscreen resolution and the game experience will be equal to the fullscreen mode.

Thanks for posting the solution Trixan, could you pelase provide some comparison screenshots (4:3, 16:10, 16:9 and multi monitor) so we could create a Detailed Report and add this game to the master game list, including your solution ? :onethumb

Eyefinity works out of the box (I'm running at 6048x1080) centred HUD and everything - feel free to use to use screenshots from my Steam account and PM me if you want some more

Thanks m8, full screen or windowed ? Vsync always off or can it run on too ?

Full-screen, and with v-sync off as I'm not getting any tearing that I've noticed.

Thanks a lot evilmatt, ive sent you a PM, cheers.

A big thanks to evilmatt for providing all screenshots included in the Detailed Report (except the 3960x1050 by Trixan), plus all necessary information. :twothumb

Oh I'm late. But I see without me it was resolved.

Ok, this great! You're welcome. :onethumb

For some reason I still can't get it to stop pillar-boxing.

I even tried doing a specific vertical resolutions like 1024, 1050, or 1080. What resolutions does the game like?

I don't mind running in a window; in fact, I prefer it. I would just need it to fit in the bounds of 3968x1280 (1024x1280 - 1920x1200 - 1024x1280).

Gameplay should be Hor+ whatever the crazy resolution you may be using. The main menu will always be pillarboxed in multi-mon, though.

I need help, I just got my eyefinity setup and try to run the game in 4800 x 900 and the middle screen is the only one showing up, side monitors are black. I went to the user.ini file and made sure my resolution was showing up and it is. Here is what my ini file is showing.

I too can't get DS3 to stop pillar boxing.
While the game runs in the full resolution of 4800x900, the game only renders 1600x900 leaving the other two screens blank.
I've played with the user.ini file and tried all kinds of setting to no avail.
Fullscreen, windowed, stretch, box, crop.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get this to work?

support_aspect_ratio_16_10 = false
support_aspect_ratio_4_3 = false
support_aspect_ratio_custom = true

Somehow all three values are "false" in my file... You might want to try that.
I'm playing in Nv Surround 5760x1080 and gameplay is Hor+ (the main menu is pillarboxed).
