Thanks so much for your work on this, working great on triple screens.

Sorry for the late acknowledgement - I was on holiday. Nice to come back to a fix! :onethumb:

By the way, it's a good time for this since the FEAR games are 75% off on Steam this weekend...

I've tried that already but no luck. The FOV setting seems to work in windowed mode for lower resolutions eg 1920x1080 but I'm playing on 5040x1050. Right now, as the PCGamingWiki says: "Resolution can't be set, it seems to scale with the window dimensions". Some kind of aspect ratio lock ...

FEAR 3 There is currently a FOV setting in the CFG text file that came with the final game update but it still has some kind of limit applied and is too narrow, at least for my taste. Even setting it to 200 has no effect beyond a certain point. I think it is locked to about 85, but since they create...

Might be any messing around you did with the INI files still applying over what FW is doing. Perhaps restore original values? Or verify game cache from steam to get original game in pristine state. DON'T do this if you have installed mods since they might be overwritten. By the way, I recommend 4 es...

No correction or patch needed. Flawless Widescreen supports the last and final version of Skyrim and the game appears normally in the menu in the latest version, listing all the fixes made. I play on triple screens and have there are no problems either with FW or with the UI /scaling. It certainly i...

Just tested it and it looks great. Cut-scenes are perfect.

I'm going to enjoy playing it across 3 screens :D

Thank you!

I'd like to request an eyefinity/surround solution for the cinematics and if possible the menus for Elite Force 2. I know it's an old game but it's a good one. I'm trying to play at 5040x1050 or above. As you can see on the detailed report the cut-scenes are vert- to an extreme degree on eyefinity/s...

My only thought is experimenting by swapping the connector the 4th monitor is on. Perhaps another combination of your current connections with the displayport employed. If your motherboard has onboard video you could just use that, or a cheap passively cooled 3rd video card would do it. Make you sur...

If you look at my reply further down, you can see that 9 will not install as DirectX won't allow it. Just for future reference: It might be that you are using the little web installer, which thinks it is wiser than the user. For older versions use what is called the 'redistributable'. About 100mb i...

The black screens and your Direct X comments might be one clue... The thing that springs to mind is your statement that you cannot install DirectX 9 on your machine. You can have any version of DirectX on your Windows 7. Just install it as normal. The files will install, they will not overwrite prev...

Just to note that I did eventually try this and I could not get the TH2Go to work at full resolution but I think that is because I connected it to a HDMI port rather than DUAL-DVI. I might try it again in the future. The monitors did show up and worked well, just at a lower resolution. I'm pretty su...

Hello RiptoR, Your tool works really well and is simple to use. Perfect for 1920x1080 :onethumb: I have come across an anomaly for surround resolutions though. It seems the hud + menus do not scale properly. Also the engine cutscenes seem to be Vert-. I'm using 5040x1050 Fov 130 Aspect Ratio 4.8. Vi...

I'm having trouble finding the locations for hex editing resolutions in messiahd3d.exe.

Is it possible you might have a 5040 x 1050 version?

I've noticed that several (perhaps all?) of the fixes that Jackfuste have made for games are ending in a 'page not found' result. It would be a great shame to lose these because they are some of the most effective and simple solutions on the site. Can they be restored? I'd also like to suggest a Jac...

I'm not sure whether a second card would be suitable, but it might be possible with a Triplehead2Go, since that appears as a single monitor to your video input. Additional display connection > Triplehead2go > 3 monitors. I was thinking of trying the same thing myself with Nvidia Surround + 3 extra m...
