| I noticed that in the report it claimed that SoftTh was tested and works. I tried last night, however when I try and set the aspect ratio to 16:9 to select my custom resolution, the game crashes. Anyone that got it to work, can you reply with what you did to make it work? 20x30x20 (1490x1600) PLP My... |

Looks like it is what is needed, however it also looks to be limited to 1920x1080
that is really unfortunate... If they could support 4960x1600 I think every 20x30x20 PLP user would get one |

My thought was if there is a way to do this in windows, instead of via the card sw/driver. I guess what i am looking for is some other way get PLP to work, instead of waiting for... |

| So I am just curious if anyone here has explored the option of finding a way to trick windows into thinking that your 3 screens are actually 1 big screen. The reason I am thinking about this is that since I run (and love) my 20x30x20 PLP setup, and SoftTh is great, but only works on some titles, and... |

| yes, I use SoftTh for the following titles with no issue: Left4Dead2 COD Black ops Portal2 TeamFortress2 Eyefinity does not support this setup (Which is horrible, but hey, what can we do) I found a fix for BF3 as well, but is a frame rate killer (runs about 30 - 35 FPS at best) I use two programs: 1... |

| Bit of an old post but figured I would share. I ran the 19x30x19 PLP for a while and it was ok, but the mismatched pixels and size got on my nerves. So I went to ebay and found 2x dell 2007FP monitors for $140 each....and holy crap! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH BETTER! Before: After: Thanks for the advice b... |

With that, I saw the following for disabling the bloom (WARNING!! I have not personally tested this, ... |

Bad news for SoftTH users.
in my research i found that DX 10.1 is a minimum required for BF3.
Without an update to SoftTh, we will be out of luck for BF3

| Hey Delphium, Thanks for the link to the tutorial! I got it to work perfectly!! FYI, for PLP setups you idea worked with one small correction. Depending on the resolution of your center monitor, you need to use that as the verticle resolution in the HUD editor. For example, mine = 1024x1280 (left) 2... |

I tried to get the beta to work with SoftTH last night and it didnt work.
I got the game loaded on the main screen (far left) but in the video settings, there was no option to select 16:9, which i typically have to choose, and the custom resolution was not an option.
anyone get it working? |

Delphium,
I used the editor and put the hudlayout.res file in the scripts folder, but i dont think it got used, as tehre was no change at all to the hud.
Do I need to re pack it into the .vpk file? |
