Never mind, this works, though without bezel correction of course, using 19x12x3.

Fisheye in this game seems really really bad to me...

ok I was crazy about the fisheye.. BUT

Playing this game on 3 screens does something to the quality. Shadows / lighting / trees change quite a bit and mirror quality turns to crap.

Shadows/Trees, sorry the quality/size is not there but you can clearly see even on this small image that the shaders change significantly...


Textures on mirrors, the car poster shows it the most. You even get more jaggies to boot...



This going from 1920x1080 to 5760x1080 (or 1920x1080x3 in their menu). I just cropped images for size.

Mine works, but not ideally. HUD and menues aren't centered, so I have to look far right to see the map and I almost need a ruler to see which setting I'm trying to change in the menus.

I'm at Chapter 14 and got mine from Steam. It has worked like a charm all through the game except for one single episode where there was a HUGE glitch. It has not repeated, though. I've posted a small album of 3x1 Eyefinity screenshots here....

The glitch has to do with the screen going corrupt on the right half of the screen. The game "felt" like it was about to crash but never did. However, my FPS dropped to an average of 3 FPS! I finally had to bring up the Task Manager and End Task on the game. Had me really worried for a few moments but a reboot of the system took care of things and I haven't had a repeat since. Here is what the screen looked like...

Just a heads up, EVGA is giving away this game to people that purchased a GTX480, GTX470 or GTX465 card from them earlier this year. I got my key earlier today from them for buying a GTX465 in June.

The game is broken when you try to run PhysX on highest and surround at the same time,
your performance goes down the tubes.
