Make an EDID Mask for the monitor with the adapter.

I think the question is how to get l4d2 to go 5760x1200... for me, there was an option for it when I messed with the widescreen setting option and then scrolled through the available resolutions.. I didn't have to do much.. so assuming you have eyefinity running with 5760x1200 now, the option should appear as one of the available resolutions you can set l4d2 to. You might have to toggle widescreen off and on again to refresh the resolution selections though.

Set the launch properties in steam: add -w 5760 -h 1200

Its not perfect though. Crosshair and UI needs work.

Bizarrely, 5760x1200 is listed under the 16:9 options in L4D2, not 16:10.

I had no problems. It was in the resolution list as soon as it opened up.

Thanks. Found it!

Small issue tho... The left and right screens are very much zooooomed in and streched so makes the game feel horrid. Anyone got a field of view fix?
