Hayden, I know you are busy with many updates ... but any word on a plugin update/fix for mirrors edge? I'm holding off on playing it until its eyefinity fixed. Thanks

OK, just tested.

The FOV adjustment works great (+ - keys), but the game is still only showing basically on the middle monitor (with only a small bit of the game drawn on the side monitors).

Is this game eyefinity fixable? I have seen youtube videos before where someone had it working (from a long time ago, non-steam version).

HaYDeN, you are my god, I will sing your praises 'til the end of time ! :love:
(And make a donation too... :bigsmile:)

Well just for a bit of feedback :
-Borderlands is much better this way than with the .ini editor hack I used ! Although I have some crashes I didn't had before, I'll try to get a complete error report...
-Mass effect 2 and Skyrim seem OK, but I haven't spent much time on them with FlawlessWidescreen.
-Mirror Edge and Mass Effect 1 are not detected by the script. (Mirror Edge is the Steam version and Mass Effect is the Impulse one.)

Mass effect steam only is supported at this stage, yet to grab a retail copy off someone to grab the offsets.

Borderlands I'll double check I think the pointers are a bit squirly (they may twitch = crash) - I'll update it shortly.

.

Are you using the [FWS] override in the SoftTH config?

I'm not using any overrides in the config. If you need some info/code on parsing the SoftTH config (for v. 2.xx, the 1,xx config is totally different, so this might be a catch in your algorithm too) I may have something for you since from what I got as feedback, this one works:
http://www.kegetys.fi/forum/index.php?&topic=2631.0

I'm updating very very very shortly anyway, a whole bunch of bugs fixed.

Loading now, will edit an update.

What i mean by override is that you should add this ->

Code:

   [FWS]
   ;GridX must be set to the number of horizontal monitors and GridY must be
   ;set to the number of vertical monitors.
   FWS_GridX=3
   FWS_GridY=1
   


Even tho its not "config variables" for SoftTH - it will ignore them, but flawless widescreen will see and read them.

The reason why it needs this addition for non-standard configurations (eg. multi sized screens) is that you can't really properly calculate how many screens there are not witout sitting down and writing a decent checking algorithm, its on my list, but for now, try adding the above to your SoftTH config file and report back.

Adding the lines didn't change anything detection wise, which wasn't a suprise really since the problem was resolution detection, not in counting the screens. Since you only need to read "renderResolution=..." I don't really have an idea what went wrong.

Nonetheless, disabling the auto-detection works with v1.0.3, but the fixes I tried don't work that way either. ME 1&2 still got all their glitches and the Witcher 2 centers nicely using the fix(without the fix I get my main monitors resolution off center) but doesn't show anything on the outer screens. :(

Here is what I get parsing your SoftTH file supplied with the latest build -



Correct?

stupid std::sort - it was messing up sorting the display rects, left to right top to bottom.

And with respect to ME 1 and 2 - definitely Steam legit versions? I know for damn sure they work.
