Widescreen Gaming Forum

HaYDeN, thank you so much for your fix. The most important HUD features are properly aligned now and the game is finally playable in 7680x1600 :)

However, I do have a slight issue. With the fix enabled, the game crashes back to the desktop every time I try to take a screenshot (FRAPS, Steam). No error message is displayed. I'm a screenshot junkie so this is pretty annoying. Do you know what this could be?
Thanks!

Sorry Hayden, meant to say 6120 x 1080.

And to the NVIDIA people running SLI GTX580's, are you getting the 40 FPS average in towns as well?

Odd that you'd have problems, I use ATI but don't use bezel compensation, I'll try it at some point - but can you post a screenshot of the incorrect rendering?

I'm running two GTX 570's in SLI @ 5760x1200 and getting the same amount of. I probably should be getting higher FPS than that shouldn't I?

Yes, you should be getting higher FPS. Our cards have only 1.2GB VRAM, there should be a ceiling somewhere- but I'm playing at 6000x1200 on ultra 2xAA 16xAF without issue. Haven't run FRAPS, but the game runs as smooth as Fallout3. I haven't bothered with my overclock on the GPUs, seems to be enough at vanilla... 905MHz is there if needed, but it's not necessary here.

Someone mentioned a CPU bottleneck. I disagree- have you checked your chart recorder for CPU usage? This game is pretty low. [email protected], 12GB RAM... decent, but my system resources have elbow room for days. Remember, this game has to run on consoles that represent midrange PCs from 5 years ago.

Yeah, we essentially have the exact same system.

I actually just added Skyrim to the NVIDIA control panel. Can't *quite* tell if there's an improvement in FPS, I think there might be. But only like about 9 or so FPS. In some places, I dip down to 20 FPS when it's really busy. It's sort of strange, only when there's buildings present. Also, my GPU usage always seems to stay between 40% - 60% usage on both GPU's

Otherwise I'm usually 35 FPS average or so. Some times 40 average.

But honestly, getting the UI elements perfected is way more important than some few places that gives me FPS issues. Although fixing both would be a god send.

Thanks!

There's an in-game screen shot tool. Just press PrtScrn, it saves it to the Skyrim directory.

Thanks for the reply.
The in-ingame screenshot function also results in a crash. But at least it can create the screenshot file. It only captures the left screen, nothing more. Then I guess it crashes...

[quote]In terms of Bezel Correction, I know you divide the bezel corrected resolution by 3 but this ends up cutting the menu's up short a little.

Is there a fix for this? I run mine at 2160 x 1080.

Can you show me a screenshot? at 2160x1080 I would assume you have 2 monitors, you should device by 2, altho 2160 is too low, so you must be refering to a single monitor res? 2160x3? :)

And if anyone wants to help out - try finding a way to adjust the size of the 3D models in the inventory etc, its positioned with + or - 22.0f and sized with 1.5f

Awesome! Last I checked the inventory scaling things I noticed that are directly tied to the rendering area....at some point I did manage to scale down on Vertical but the gamed crashed 5 minutes later.
I will give a look at those numbers and see maybe I have some luck:)

[quote]I Just found a way to get it working

Nice.

I managed to fix the reading book things:)

Great, keep it up m8, awesome ! :onethumb

Books - for those that care..

Unzoomed skill tree - and any other menu items that were messed up..

Still the 3D model's being too large (aka, inventory) remains.

Haha fantastic news ! :onethumb

yeah so true.

I would disable SLi but then I can't multi-mon.

Anyone else with NVIDIA cards running SLi having average FPS?

Game runs smooth as silk here all ulra, but only AA2x in 3D Surround, 3 x GTX 480.

i tried almost everything now,
even lowered my native res and tried all kind of offset res, disabling crossfire, but it always start up with three similar logo on three monitors (does not become one single display), my eyefinity not working..
using amd 6970... please help..

the hayden fix does nothing to my system at all, am i doing something wrong?

Have you tried to delete SkyrimPrefs.ini at C:Users...DocumentsMy GamesSkyrim (make a backup), you may also try a clean reinstall of video drivers.

thanks for the reply and the solution for my solved case.. if only u answer sooner, but thanks anyway.. :)
it turns out that i've been editing the .ini in skyrim folder and not in documentsmy games folder... LOL..
running fine n smoothly now without crossfire 7680 x 1440.. THANKS hayden! u r the man!

I play at 7680x1440 but my interface is too large a sample here:



Got it done according to these instructions

Solution
Native support. You can also set your resolution by editing SkyrimPrefs, i.e for 5040x1050 ( iSize H=1050 iSize W=5040), at C:Users...DocumentsMy GamesSkyrim.

Sorry for my bad english

Uhh, wheres the new fix that fixes books? I know its supposed to be attatched somewhere but danged if I can find it :(

Awesome work btw guys. You are legends.
