Post subject:  World of Warcraft

Hi guys i have found myself this great site thanks to watching one of Swiftys Videos on you tube.
I recently set up my eyefinity with 3 x 24" monitors running @ 6048 x 1080 to run iRacing which it ran good with
I have now again started to play World of Warcraft with my 3 monitor set up and it displays across the 3 screens ok but here is my problem
The images on the side screens seems so stretched and as in if you pass a mob on the center screen he looks fine ,, but as you move along and he gets to the side screen he is like twice as wide , same goes for tree's etc
Is there anyway i can fix this issue

Thanks guys

I have seen some footage on you tube of Swiftys setup and his seemed bearable, mine is to the extent where the images at the side are like twice as wide as the images center screen at times.
I wounder if its to do with the bezel adjustments , but i think mine are set up fine as with iRacing the lines in the tracks and the wallls lined up ok

As you can see the characters on the side screens get wider the further you get from the center , this is far worse when going past larger objects.

I guess due to the lack of replies,, there is nothing i can do about the distortion / wide characters on the side screens ( further from the center character = worse it gets )

Post subject:  I came here for the specific

I came here for the specific reason to try and find a fix for this problem as well. Like you said, iRacing is awesome with three screens but that is to be expected with a product as spectacular as that one is. I mean, what other game asks for the distance from all three monitors to your eye? And angle? I think iRacing has spoiled us to three monitor setups. With WoW I think the problem is the game "camera". It must be that the "size" of the camera is such that we get a fish-eye effect. This persists in first person view also.

It really does suck, WoW shouldn't have received a perfect score for multi-monitor support, that's for sure.

Post subject:  You would like to think with

You would like to think with the release of the up and coming MOP expansion that they would add support for multi monitor setups , but i highly doubt it as that will just cost them money and not being in any extra revenue.
